Practicing speaking up in meetings? Trivial
Practicing your presentation in a mirror? Nothing simpler

This is a stupid idea, but I wish there were a good app that used VR with LLMs for language learning via conversation. I think part of visiting other countries helps with learning is your brain automatically shifts into "oh God I have to speak now" and it's hard to recreate that at home.

My guess is if you did a blind taste test between rinsed vs unrinsed dishes the vast majority of people wouldn't be able to tell the difference

Android is still my preference but got to admit the seamless switching of airpods between Macbook, iPhone and iPad is pretty neat

On two occasions I have been asked, – "Pray, Mr. Altman, if you put into the model right figures, will the right answers come out?" ... I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question

Growing old is watching your memes lose potency
I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme.
So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

There's something about these stories that makes me think about how generalisable this effect is
Obviously most people don't fall for it, but given just the right set of circumstances if you get hooked it seems you can get dragged down a path where the final outcome is you saying "how?"
