<p>I just came across this funny behavior, and I have no idea what's causing it. The first paragraph is in English, but everything below it is written in Korean. What's interesting is that if you submit a question to the AI, it will open a new window, and in that window, the text is fully written in English.<p>I was able to reproduce this on multiple browsers and devices; I have never installed or used the Korean language settings.<p>Anybody know why it might be behaving this way?</p>

<p>> So it's like in an English novel where someone might be referred to as Smith by the narrator but John in dialogue, but with an extra 50%, at least, of confusion.<p>I've been reading Tom Clancy recently, and that's basically the Jack Ryan books. Somehow, "Jack" is actually a nickname for "John".</p>

<p>> Although Sweden is a bit strange in the fact that banks have as much equal say as the government authority does in you starting a company, and if they don't want you as a customer, they can simply deny the right for your company to start!<p>Wait, how does that work? Are you saying that if the bank doesn't like me, instead of just denying me a loan, they can convince other banks not to loan to me as well?</p>

<p>I disagree; Spotify is good at serving up sound, so it makes sense for them to also serve audiobooks and podcasts; just like it makes sense for video streaming services to have both movies and tv shows. Similarly for concerts; people who listen to a lot of music are probably interested in going to see their favorite band live.<p>Mind you, I definitely have complaints about the app (like notifications interrupting music, their abysmal lock screen widget, and their "randomization" that always ends up playing the same few songs from a list of thousands); but I also understand why they want to expand.</p>

<p>> The permit, a Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System authorization known as TPDES, allowed up to 231,000 gallons of treated wastewater per day to be discharged into an unnamed ditch that flows into Petronila Creek and from there into Baffin Bay, a longtime South Texas saltwater fishing destination.<p>Ok, so sounds like Tesla got the necessary legal provisions.<p>> What it did not do, explicitly, was grant Tesla the right to use public or private property for wastewater conveyance.<p>I'm confused, does Tesla have the right to dump water or not? I would assume that this is exactly what a permit is for?<p>> The drainage district that manages the ditch the pipe was discharging into was never notified that the permit existed<p>This should be on the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality; they issued the permit, so it should be on them to notify the affected area.<p>> Tesla also argues that the Eurofins sampling methodology was inappropriate, because the lab placed its sampling equipment in the ditch downstream of the outfall pipe rather than at the outfall itself. The permit requires monitoring at the outfall point, and the company has pointed out that ditch samples can pick up contaminants from sources that have nothing to do with Tesla’s wastewater.<p>As the article itself says, that is a legitimate argument.</p>

<p>Our "gender based culture" wasn't imposed on us by space aliens; it's something we humans came up with ourselves. And given that basically every culture divides people by gender (as opposed to by height, hair color, or fingernail shape), it very much indicates that there is a biological component to gender.<p>> but gender is a human invention.<p>So you don't believe a person can be transgender, right?</p>

<p>> The prompt I used asks each model to return a confidence score (0 to 1) for every food item it identifies. All four models dutifully returned confidence scores for 100% of items. Surely we can use those to filter out bad estimates?<p>This is a problem with the companies selling the AI models, not the customers. It is their responsibility to inform consumers about the limits of their services, and to train the models to say "I don't know, there is not enough information".</p>
