    Assuming you have iq > 120 like a college student it doesn’t, yet. Specialized advice is worth gold, to the advisee at least. But how about that other 90 % population white collar workers?

    example, you need to write a review Or create summary of a lengthy text. ChatGPT will do it for you better than anything. Another great usage basic programming. You still need to edit it, but it saves tons of time.

    that being said, current madness does feel like .com all over again

    That's hogwash. :sneaky: I personally use ChatGPT and Gemini almost everyday to learn Japanese and other things. There's no comparison. Not even close. Before AI bots arrived, I would have needed to check different websites for grammar, pronunciation, and background contexts, etc. Now I can get the same thing simply by asking questions. I just need to ask right questions.

    The problem with you is that you're still living in the 90s. Quit looking in the rearview mirror so much.

    I'm asking it questions and all it does is show me the same search I would get in a basic web search used in any number of searches

    I have perplexity now. Let me ask it to teach me how to say something in Japanese.


    Spoke to it, and asked how to say hello in Japanese and all it gave me was this


    In Japanese, you can say "hello" by using the word "こんにちは" which is pronounced as "konnichiwa." This greeting is commonly used throughout the day to say hello or good afternoon.


    Will chatgpt offer a different type of feedback?

    Of course. Like I wrote previously, asking right questions make all the difference. For instance, you could go further with your query by asking, "What are other common greetings besides こんにちは, and when and how should I use them? Also list them from most casual to most formal."

    This is the reply I got:

    Certainly! Here are some common greetings in Japanese, listed from more casual to more formal:

    1. こんにちは (Konnichiwa) - Hello/Good afternoon
    - Usage: This is a standard and versatile greeting used throughout the day, particularly in the afternoon.

    2. おはようございます (Ohayou gozaimasu) - Good morning
    - Usage: Used in the morning until around noon. A polite and common way to greet someone in the early part of the day.

    3. こんばんは (Konbanwa) - Good evening
    - Usage: Used in the evening and night. It's a polite way to greet someone during this time.

    4. おはよう (Ohayou) - Good morning (Casual form)
    - Usage: A more casual version of "Good morning," used among friends, family, or in informal situations.

    5. こんばんは (Konbanwa) - Good evening (Casual form)
    - Usage: A casual version of "Good evening," used among friends, family, or in informal situations.

    6. いらっしゃいませ (Irasshaimase) - Welcome (Used in stores or restaurants)
    - Usage: Commonly used by staff to welcome customers when they enter a store or restaurant.

    7. さようなら (Sayounara) - Goodbye
    - Usage: Used when saying farewell, but it can also imply a sense of finality. For less formal goodbyes among friends, you can use じゃね (Ja ne) or じゃあね (Jaa ne).

    8. ありがとう (Arigatou) - Thank you
    - Usage: A common and casual way to express gratitude. For a more formal thank you, you can say ありがとうございます (Arigatou gozaimasu).

    9. お疲れ様です (Otsukaresama desu) - Thank you for your hard work/You must be tired
    - Usage: Typically used among colleagues or after a shared activity to acknowledge someone's effort. It's a polite and versatile expression.

    10. 失礼いたします (Shitsurei itashimasu) - Excuse me/I'm sorry (Used when entering or leaving a room or a conversation)
    - Usage: Commonly used in business settings or formal situations when you want to excuse yourself.

    Remember that the appropriateness of these greetings depends on the context and your relationship with the person you are addressing. In more formal situations, it's generally safer to use the more polite forms of greetings. Casual greetings are suitable for friends, family, or informal settings.

    I still can't believe I was able to buy SMCI for less than $50 less than 2 years ago.

    Good times.

    NVDA. Free money.

    This time it is different. How? This time we know it isn't going to last forever, so we know not to ride these things back down to double and even single digits when the punch bowl is pulled.

    But for now, I'm you schizo, let's get stupid drunk on these amazing profits. The people worried about the coming crash are going to be too scared to short it, so those people done' make money coming or going.

    NVDA's biggest problem right now is the Microsoft Maia AI server chip and the in-house build network card.

  9. Fair point. However they could setup services around AI (AI services or simply rented oit hardware) anytime. I find shorting extremely risky therefore.
