LLMs are little more than overclocked autocompletes. There’s no actual thinking going on, and they will happily hallucinate outright wrong or dangerous responses to innocuous questions.
I’ve had friends find this out the hard way when they asked ChatGPT to write them C for a class, only to get their faces eaten by UB.
OpenAI’s models are trained by scraping anything that moves. Anything overtly offensive or toxic is manually filtered out by cheap foreign labor… but you know what that won’t catch?

Personally, I don’t mind this sort of telemetry so long as they’re open about it - which looks to be the plan, at least for the moment.

Yeah, there really isn’t any reason to go with one processor brand over the other. Since drivers and such aren’t a concern (like with GPUs) most people just pick whichever one has the most price-effective offering in the spec range they’re looking for.

Most people either don’t care or actively prefer it. Personally, I much prefer unit files to hacking away at init scripts or whatever the fuck Upstart was.
