@Rory_Talks_Ball Short answer: Merino.

He’ll play those minutes.

But Nketiah is a striker you say?

Havertz played ~20 games (starting the majority) at midfield last year. Put him at forward, that gobbles up the Nketiah minutes.

And you still have Nwaneri & Nelson.

Okay, so it’s a promotion (free day), but first time I’ve hit this height... (of course in three hours, I’ll be off the list again. 😀)

Most spot-on description I’ve seen so far.

ChatGPT doesn't give you information. It gives you information-shaped sentences.

[Kagan Tumer @kagan_tumer]

“Understand” is a loaded word when it comes to #ChatGPT. I’m comfortable saying that it understands language structure (statistically).

The concepts it talks about? Not so much.

Here’s a few examples of ChatGPT not understanding its own words. #AI

Sometimes, I think 90% of #AI related concerns are caused by poor word choice and misleading reporting.

For example, when you hear “robots shut down after developing their own language” you might want to read a tiny bit more.

@JonBoeckenstedt I agree with other replies. The description totally fits science fiction, but the mood, feel, and vibe of the movie is very different that what you probably expect sci fi to be.

It’s more like 5-8 non-sci-fi mini movies connected through a sci-fi element.

[Kagan Tumer @kagan_tumer]

True in every situation.

Overconfident humans who don’t listen to anybody else scare the hell out of me.

@madhu_bhat_K @weatherenthu @Tapouthepp @macaulaynichol @curiosityonx The highest point on Earth is the summit of mt Everest.

The tallest mountain (from its base to its summit) is Mauna Kea.

So which is the “highest mountain” would depend on the interpretation of the question.

@Brink_Thinker That’s a bipedal meat grinder that roamed the Mediterranean in the 1900s.

Sadly it’s at the brink of extinction because kitchenAidus americanus outcompeted it in its natural habitat.

[Kagan Tumer @kagan_tumer]

Which is what makes it terrifying that it provides incorrect answers to basic math questions with amazing confidence.

(But it was great at explaining quantum computing. 😀)

[Kagan Tumer @kagan_tumer]

Playing with #ChatGPT, it dawned on me:

If a few years ago you’d predicted that an #AI system would be much better at language than math, no one would have believed you.

But that’s where we are.

[Kagan Tumer @kagan_tumer]

The conversational aspects of ChatGPT are amazing. the tone, the examples, the level of explanations all point to strong command of language.

[Stephanie Lupo Henson 📕 @stepha_henson]

People talk a lot about how hard querying is but not a lot of people talk about how hard being on sub can be. There’s still rejection, hearing nothing, and checking email a thousand times a day!
