If in doubt about whether or not the song you're listening to is cumbia, listen carefully to the lyrics. Do they include the word "cumbia"? If they do, chances are the song is indeed cumbia.

Many of the people who dismiss AI as useless tend to be native English speakers working in English-speaking environments. For those of us who aren't, AI can be a useful tool for translation, back-translation, and finding alternative ways to express ideas more effectively in writing.
Nothing. I use it for nothing at all because AI is good at zero of the tasks I do regularly
Honestly I don't even know what its web address is, is it like a 2000s style ChatGPT.com or something funkier like chat.g.pt
