The Demon Haunted World by Carl Sagan is a nice read. You can learn critical thinking from this book.

I think this is a silly question, you could track AI's doing very simple maths back in 1960 - 1970's

It's a cool idea but i really don't see how this is any diff from Cursor IDE. It might have features that are totally diff from Cursor but visually looking it just looks to me exactly like Cursor

Breathtaking! Just imagine, a century from now, maybe later or sooner, we could visit planets like Jupiter, that once, we could only look at them from the photo. I hope the humanity lives on, and strives forward in engineering.

This is interesting little project, would love to see a counter somewhere of how many requests i've sent by the end of the day, definitely would be in the thousands! It's insane how 0 privacy, we humans have, given WE created this, every word we type, every word we speak, to some point is tracked

It's still going to get worse, until we find a fix, a ultimate fix, but as far as i know, we haven't found it yet. It's like in the movies, until it becomes a global crisis and disaster, nobody pays attention, just scientists.
