George Clooney is an actor.
Put him in the role of a surgeon in front of a camera, and he will do and say things the average non-surgeon viewer will agree are surgeonish. After an hour of that, we are, as average non-surgeon viewers, satisfied and entertained.
Put him in an operating theatre, and the patient will fucking die because he's not a surgeon and knows nothing about really doing surgery.
This is a post about LLMs.

"But one of the starkest findings of the report is that the ultra-rich 0.001% control three times the wealth of the poorest half of humanity. Not only that, their wealth is growing at a faster rate – close to 5%, compared with 3.4%. (...)
But to give an idea of the disparity, the image below shows how big the bottom half is. Each dot represents one stadium of 56,000 people."

‘The 0.001%’: a quick visual breakdown of the world’s wealthiest people
About 56,000 people control three times as much wealth as half of humanity. Here’s one way to illustrate thatOliver Holmes (The Guardian)
The image is a solid field of small, repeating squares. The squares are primarily green, with a slightly darker shade interspersed throughout, creating a textured, grid-like pattern. The squares are arranged in a uniform manner, covering the entire image area with no visible borders or empty space. There are no other elements or text present in the image. It appears to be a digital pattern or texture fill.

The first round usually occurs when I'm copying a disjointed draft from a notebook onto my computer, and then I adjust as I go.

L'obiettivo è esaminare l'ejecta proveniente da un cratere ben conservato. Si tratta di un luogo ideale per l'acquisizione di immagini perché è poco coperto da polvere, quindi sono visibili molti dettagli.

When you ask a pet parrot "Who's a pretty bird?" and the bird excitedly responds, "Pretty bird! Pretty bird!" you are having more of a real conversation with avian intelligence than you are with AI. But human beings are so easily fooled by good grammar and syntax that if you could teach a bird to respond, "You know, Sooz, I've thought about this a bit and it occurs to me that I am indeed a pretty bird," most humans would assume it understood exactly what it was saying. They would be blinded by eloquence.
