Very cool! I'd love to point it at my own corpus to index/embed. Would be cool if you could give it a link to a markdown file or even a website to crawl.

I would argue that it does stop it from being really cool, but I'm not a millennial and thus despise Harry Potter.

Interesting that LLMs remove the moats for 1 (except for data lock-in) and 3, possibly even 2 if they can convert formats on the fly.

For those of us that hate Harry Potter, this apparently takes your written prompt and responds on the Remarkable. I think you'd have to be a fan of the series to care as otherwise this is just a really slow chat interface.

Steal my money, commit the worst securities fraud in history, interfere with my government, promote ultra-right wing racist views… I could go on. He’s truly one of the most heinous people of our time.

CEOs are not accountable at all. Look at Elon Musk. I don't care what the guy stocking shelves at Walmart does, I do care when billionaires interfere with my life in myriad ways, all of which are nefarious. They can cause infinitely more damage than a low level employee and need infinite more scrutiny because of that.

There are orders of magnitude more workers than there are CEOs and board members. If surveiling workers is on the table, certainly the much easier and higher return task of monitoring this much smaller group, who has the potential to do much more damage to society, is a better idea.

I would absolutely support the surveillance of CEOs and board members. They have demonstrated themselves, as a class, to not be trustworthy. I think as a society, we should be reviewing Alex Karp's decision making for instance.

No worker should be surveilled while doing their job. Only weak and insecure management would even consider something like that.

So you do think Jews are smarter than non-Jews. I welcome your return to reality. It will be well deserved.

Are you claiming Jews are more intelligent than non-Jews?

Nothing Hezbollah has done is even remotely close to the evils of Israel. Hezbollah is armed resistance against a genocidal terror force. They're not even remotely "bad".

If you live in the US, I've got bad news for you. If you live in Israel, "crime syndicate" isn't strong enough of a pejorative.

“The world” is very complicit in supporting Israel’s genocide. It also has effects like stripping the rights of citizens in countries whose governments support Israel. That’s why people care.

Ashkenazi, and only because they made a dedicated effort to switch from their native Yiddish to build the colonization narrative.

Palestinians,Lebanese and Iranians (of all religions) represent 100% of the victims of Israel’s genocide.

Israel’s genocide has nothing to do with “influencers” and everything to do with stealing land. The “profit” is Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon and the whole of Palestine post-Balfour Agreement. Some blue check on Twitter does not register.
