... I guess that means that the bad decision-makers' heads, who decided the built-in prompt rewriting and racism was necessary for DEI, are gonna roll as well.

It's not entirely all about training data causing the issue... It's been proven on youtube that you can ask for an image of a white married couple, and it will tell you it can't because of diversity and hate. But ask it for a black married couple, and it will gladly spit out 4 images of a happily married black couple.
It's bias is freaking ridiculous.
Tell that to your pancreas.
I remember when CinemaNow died, and moved as many of the movies as it could to your Fandango account. When Fandango decided it no longer wanted to stream movies, it offered you the ability to transfer whatever you had to Google Movies... I only lost a small handlful of movies I had a purchase streaming licenses for, but appreciated their efforts.
Sony, again, is FUCKING UP ROYALLY.
I wonder if they differentiated between traditional meat sources, or if they factored in exclusively organic meat sources too? I would be hesitant to just blame meat for the cancer problems until you know how the meat was grown.
Oh right, the forgotten generation...
I used to work for a PPO about 20 years ago. They negotiated up to 30-40% discounts on medical care billings for guaranteed payment within a very short period of time. They also used medicare rates to help them negotiate when they went to arbitration.
Interesting tidbit. Hospitals and doctors sometimes have to eat 30-40% of their billings due to non-payment. It's f'd because they have to remain profitable.
Customers end up paying through the nose in the end. Single payer system actually works a lot better, and not-for-profit medical care is more ethical in the long run.
I worked for a boss who was brilliant and a great individual contributor, but had poor instincts for team leadership. I think I hated his management style the most, but I remember one of my coworkers screaming at him on a voice call about how rude and cruel he was, and that all he did was speak to people with disdain. This guy was a post-doc fellow at some university and led grad students before taking on a team of 10 IT folks. His instincts were so driven by the academic cadence he was used to, he wasted quite a lot of money fussing around about this and that, and never really delivering product. It was a mess.
Perhaps look into the following standards and consider emplementing one or both of them:
* ISO/IEC 9126 https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FISO%2FIEC_9126
* ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119 https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FISO%2FIEC_29119
They should have those rules written so ALL people on a plane have to follow those rules. Nothing like a flight attendant bitching at you for your device being out, only to see them texting during descent!
Agreed... I've had the same experience. Usually (but not all) PhDs tend to infuriate us more practically minded individuals in the tech field. Way too about the theory, and no real experience in implementing working systems that get stuff done.
A colleague told me once that based on her experience, that once someone does a PhD, their brain changes, and they lose the ability to come back down to earth. I had very similar experiences in my career, making PhDs less likely to be relatable in the workforce.
Do a skills-based resume, and don't talk out of your ass.
That's why.
The Pragmatic Programmer: From Journeyman to Master - It's not a Computer Science book, but it really talks about essential things any programmer should know in order to excel in their career.
*spoiler alert* Reminds me of the end the movie Contact, when they figure out that the video recorder actually recorded more video than was supposed to be possible given the circumstances.
