@acmilan Who cares? Why don't you just concentrate on the important stuff? Like getting into Champions League. And real football. It's with a round ball.
There's a meaningless claim every second it seems. These stupid times.. and we're only just starting. But hey, it's what drives AI investment, platforms like X.... Online spaces for the new-old public sphere? When did I hear that before? 20 years ago?
One thing for sure. Echo chambers will get louder. Filter bubbles will get tighter. World views will get narrower. And disinformation will become so normalised that nobody will blink.
Required reading for those who also work hard to provide their children with a decent education, in the hope that it will enable them to speak truth to power.

@karpathy Get AI to teach critical thinking. Seeing my students think they can now rely totally on Gen-AI to do their thinking. While academia thinks critical thinking is some proprietary domain to justify its very existence, although nobody can quite agree on what it means. Etc.
