This is interesting: According to @edzitron.com, OpenAI's costs are rising much faster than its revenues.

LLM+China Fun! According to #DeepSeek, there's a Metro Line 10 in #Wuhan. But it's on no map (e.g., www.travelchinaguide.com/images/map/h...). According to a handful of Chinese websites, Line 10 is under construction. According to #ChatGPT it's "planned."
I guess, I'll find out when I get there 🤷😅

As it turns out, Grok 4 is still having trouble figuring out how many hands a "cute mascot for a read-later app" should have. (I'm considering hiring a full-time mascot for @poketto-me.bsky.social , but the candidates don't quite meet my standards.)

Was haben die #Opiumkriege mit #Trumps #Zöllen zu tun? Und was sagt uns das über den #Welthandel im Digitalzeitalter? In „Digitales Opium“ geht es um einen Brief an Queen Victoria, um #Drogen und #SocialMedia und um eine Seeschlacht im Nebel vor #Hongkong.

Mein Beitrag zu „Teilzeit vs. Vollzeit“ ist schon etwas älter und passt nicht ganz in das Schema „mehr arbeiten“ / „mehr Kindergärten“ / „mehr Vollzeitstellen“. Wie wir unseren gesteigerten Wohlstand nutzen, um besser zu leben, ist aber auch keine einfache Frage ... 🤔
