Comment What about the Hallucination Problem? (Score 1) 106

When you or I use one of the AI chatboxes we see errors a significant fraction of the time. And of course this is only a small fraction of the errors because of our lack of previous knowledge.

I just don't understand why business is going to use AI so heavily with all these errors.

Comment Re:Carbon taxes (Re:Sounds about right) (Score 1) 149

If you look at the total picture I think you will find that the white collar types tend to fly all over, while the blue collar types fly rarely. Flying produces a massive amount of carbon dioxide.

The blue collar types are heavily into reuse and repair, while the white collar types "recycle"--which except for metals doesn't help the environment and is a big cost.

While this is probably for new items, it is false for used books. The substantial majority of listings for used books are Marketplace, not FBA--because FBA storage fees are too high for used books as most are very slow moving. So you might have a $30 FBA listing plus several Marketplace listings with some under $10--and they show the $30 FBA listing in the buy box.
