01:00 XRevan86; Yep.

01:00 schestowitz[TR2]; doesn't matter if that helps Putin

01:01 XRevan86; schestowitz: For Tucker Carlson it's like that, for Jimmy Dore it's a little different.

01:01 schestowitz[TR2]; you need to understand the context

01:01 schestowitz[TR2]; dore and people he supported were wrongly spun as Russiagate something

01:02 XRevan86; So he became it?

01:02 schestowitz[TR2]; to discourage any narrative that shamd US actions

01:02 schestowitz[TR2]; and they aren't tolerating it anymore

01:02 XRevan86; I hear RT from his mouth.

01:02 schestowitz[TR2]; you hear

01:02 schestowitz[TR2]; it rhymes

01:02 schestowitz[TR2]; doesn't mean he serves russia

01:04 schestowitz[TR2]; first, not everything russia says is false

01:04 schestowitz[TR2]; and not everything the biden regime says is false

01:05 schestowitz[TR2]; and people who say things that benefit either side are not necessarily working for them

01:05 schestowitz[TR2]; not everyone who opposes electronic voting machines is a trump supporter

01:05 XRevan86; schestowitz: I brought up the Merkel example because what he said is false.

01:05 XRevan86; And it's easy to prove.

01:06 psydruid; Russia is an enemy and the USA is also an enemy

01:06 psydruid; Neither of them are the good guys

01:07 XRevan86; What he said about the war in Ukraine being provoked by the US because LNG something is conspiratorial thinking worthy of aggi.

01:08 schestowitz[TR2]; XRevan86: here is my own take

01:08 schestowitz[TR2]; and I am no political buff

01:08 schestowitz[TR2]; the US did, in some sense, provoke

01:08 *tessier (~treed@xzsbpewk5waan.irc) has joined #techrights

01:09 schestowitz[TR2]; the expansion of EU and NATO to the east is unnecessary

01:09 schestowitz[TR2]; it's not ukraine's head of state though

01:09 schestowitz[TR2]; the invasion of crimea predates him

01:09 schestowitz[TR2]; both side are being territorial

01:09 schestowitz[TR2]; *sides

01:09 XRevan86; schestowitz: Notice how Putin never complained until suddenly he did.

01:09 schestowitz[TR2]; i think that both sides are oppoortunistic

01:10 schestowitz[TR2]; Let's face is, XRevan86:

01:10 XRevan86; If it were such a big problem, he should've given the US a heads up.

01:10 schestowitz[TR2]; a coupel of years ago you posted a video here about soaring costs of living in Russia

01:10 *Noisytoot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

01:10 schestowitz[TR2]; in the US, similar issues

01:10 schestowitz[TR2]; they know a war can help them politically

01:10 schestowitz[TR2]; they can blame the war for the issues

01:10 XRevan86; "yea, mr Bush, I think this isn't great, I think I'll have to invade a neighbouring country in a decade because of this"

01:10 *Noisytoot (~noisytoot@tkbibjhmbkvb8.irc) has joined #techrights

01:10 schestowitz[TR2]; and change the subject

01:11 XRevan86; schestowitz: For the US this would be an internal affair.

01:11 schestowitz[TR2]; now putin can jail dissidents for being unpatriotics

01:11 schestowitz[TR2]; i.e. for opposing him and his needless invasion

01:11 XRevan86; For Russia this is something that sipped into Ukraine.

01:11 schestowitz[TR2]; it's also truue that the us gets involved in taiwan

01:12 schestowitz[TR2]; and takes on china

01:12 schestowitz[TR2]; it won't end well

01:12 schestowitz[TR2]; you and I just want a calm life

01:12 schestowitz[TR2]; progamming, eating, sleeping

01:12 schestowitz[TR2]; but some people near us are revolting

01:12 schestowitz[TR2]; and the regime doesn't want the revolt

01:13 XRevan86; schestowitz: Since support for PRC in Taiwan tanked in recent years, the Taiwanese must be grateful for all the help though.

01:14 schestowitz[TR2]; naaa

01:14 schestowitz[TR2]; it's close to china

01:14 schestowitz[TR2]; none of our business tbh

01:14 schestowitz[TR2]; same for HK

01:14 XRevan86; Maybe it's not the US' fight to fight.

01:14 schestowitz[TR2]; it would be devastating

01:14 schestowitz[TR2]; they use taiwan as a grudge

01:14 schestowitz[TR2]; against china

01:14 *birkoff (~birkoff@freenode-adfd07.pp8t.eshf.59jtia.IP) has joined #techrights

01:14 schestowitz[TR2]; like japan asserting it wants hawaii back

01:14 schestowitz[TR2]; in 2023

01:14 XRevan86; But the US also wants stability in that region because important technology is exprted from there.

01:15 schestowitz[TR2]; remember some families are now with kids and without jobs

01:15 XRevan86; schestowitz: I don't think it's a grudge, not worth it in that sense.

01:15 schestowitz[TR2]; the us is screaming economically

01:15 schestowitz[TR2]; us can also imports from mainland china

01:15 schestowitz[TR2]; not taiwan

01:15 schestowitz[TR2]; there are corporate interests there

01:16 XRevan86; schestowitz: Naturally, it's an economical balance in which the US has vested interest in.

01:16 schestowitz[TR2]; if you think americans feel for the taiwanese, i have news for you

01:16 schestowitz[TR2]; they can barely distinguish east asians

01:16 schestowitz[TR2]; and they don't care for themt

01:16 schestowitz[TR2]; the average american doesn't care

01:16 schestowitz[TR2]; where the rice comes from etc.

01:17 XRevan86; schestowitz: I know for some countries help for Ukraine it's definitely about solidarity and being charitable, but I don't really expect that from everyone.

01:17 XRevan86; (like Poland)

02:49 schestowitz[TR2]; many sites outside twitterm send copies to twitter

02:49 schestowitz[TR2]; if that steps, the ramifications will be rather big

02:49 schestowitz[TR2]; do those count as "Bots"

02:49 schestowitz[TR2]; will twitter block api access

02:50 schestowitz[TR2]; do they need to license a paid bridge?

02:58 TR News; Investigative reporting is dead. All "the news" is pretty much the same, mostly war and gossip, cushioned by minor local news incidents, PR, spam, and shopping disguised as "news".

02:59 XRevan86; Elon Musk came in with freezepeach in rhetoric, so what he do almost immediately? Shut down API.

03:10 schestowitz[TR2]; it's OK, Debian 11 works OK, but some things seem slower than 10

03:10 schestowitz[TR2]; SSDs are not reliable, but i/o is FAST

03:51 DaemonFC; Exectly 6 weeks in!

03:51 schestowitz[TR2]; but it was "mild"

03:51 DaemonFC; It's probably better to just ask for a bottle of Molnupiravir if I get it again than taking all these weird shots that didn't help either of it much.

04:07 DaemonFC; I'm accusing him of violating Indiana Rule of Trial Procedure 5. There's a lot of "Defendent has no knowledge of this and denies same.". Then I'm counter-claiming that if damages are awarded, he forgot to give her credit for the security deposit at her apartment, and if they are not awarded, the court should order him to give it back and pay the filing fee.

04:07 schestowitz[TR2]; i used to write for datamation

04:07 schestowitz[TR2]; 2007/2008

04:07 schestowitz[TR2]; they kept removing my text that was critical of microsoft

04:07 schestowitz[TR2]; with excuses

04:07 schestowitz[TR2]; like, cannot prove etc.

04:07 schestowitz[TR2]; even when you can prove it

04:07 schestowitz[TR2]; verifiable

04:08 schestowitz[TR2]; turned out, msft was an advertiser

04:08 schestowitz[TR2]; so microsoft in effect bribes publishers for bias

04:08 schestowitz[TR2]; for self-censorship

04:08 schestowitz[TR2]; like famous criminal bill gates does all the time

04:08 schestowitz[TR2]; even paidsirius

04:08 schestowitz[TR2]; but been years and under secrecy... so maybe we'll never know

04:08 DaemonFC; I also argue that this lawsuit is in the incorrect venue even if it complies with Trial Rule 5 because the defendant and plaintiff both agree that she left the apartment on October 29th and the landlord was in possession of the keys the next day, so it should not be filed as an eviction by the landlord's own admission.

04:09 DaemonFC; Then there's a big counterclaim for "What about where all my stuff went?".

04:09 DaemonFC; This guy's head is going to spin when I'm finished with him.

05:04 schestowitz[TR2]; we have "APPS!!!"

05:04 DaemonFC; I think they just released it to send someone to prison.

05:05 DaemonFC; They were doing bad on the copyright lawsuits, and they tried to send this guy to prison for leaking it early and the court was skeptical the album would ever be released because it was stuck in development Hell for 30 years.

05:05 DaemonFC; So they Duke Nukem Forever'd it.

05:25 schestowitz[TR2]; it's microsoft using media moles

05:25 schestowitz[TR2]; TechCrunch is posting spam for microsoft

05:25 schestowitz[TR2]; and BS

05:25 DaemonFC; A lot of money!

05:26 schestowitz[TR2]; they fired lots of bing workers

05:26 schestowitz[TR2]; bing would die

05:26 DaemonFC; They _claim_ they have $100 billion in cash equivalent, so $10 billion would be 10% of this.

05:26 schestowitz[TR2]; they have one more go at it

05:26 schestowitz[TR2]; losing money

05:26 schestowitz[TR2]; DDG is falling

05:26 DaemonFC; For something they'll be hard pressed to fix and/or monetize.

05:26 schestowitz[TR2]; perople realise it's not privacuy

05:26 schestowitz[TR2]; so that plan failed

05:26 DaemonFC; So they'll never break even on ChatGPT.

05:26 schestowitz[TR2]; Gabe admitted he had signed an NDA with Microsoft

05:26 DaemonFC; In reality they probably have less cash.

05:31 schestowitz[TR2]; on three physical drives

05:31 schestowitz[TR2]; all the same hash/checksum

05:45 schestowitz[TR2]; the training of shitGPT does not work the same way

05:46 schestowitz[TR2]; it doesn't even work well

05:47 DaemonFC; We're going for a Motion to Dismiss for Improper Service.

05:48 DaemonFC; And then if we need it, I have another Motion to Dismiss due to Abandonment.

05:48 DaemonFC; Which would get the lawsuit thrown out as moot.

05:48 DaemonFC; He's going to have to refile his lawsuit at least two more times and eat $600 that he doesn't get back because of me, so he can try suing her for $800.

08:09 DaemonFC; An opportunity to poke a stick in the eye of the United States is always attractive for the bellicose regime of President Xi Jinping, especially now.

11:29 bagira; the base attribute of most people in almost all walks of life.

11:29 psydruid; it's better for him to stab himself than to stab other innocent people

11:29 psydruid; anyone with a working moral compass should realise that

11:30 psydruid; one person or many people?

11:30 mjg59_; I do appreciate all this hate

11:30 psydruid; it' s an easy choice

11:31 schestowitz[TR2]; i met one once

11:31 bagira; when someone realizes they have a problem like that they have a moral obligation to society to address that flaw in their character

11:31 mjg59_; Chris, man, the assertion that I have chronic lying problems to address requires you to point at lies

11:31 schestowitz[TR2]; it was illuminating

11:31 schestowitz[TR2]; he was mba student from india

11:31 schestowitz[TR2]; total crazy head

11:32 schestowitz[TR2]; and decided to "get even" by attacking iinnocent people all around them

11:32 schestowitz[TR2]; no empathy

11:34 mjg59_; schestowitz[TR2]: Why are you unwilling to debate an opponent?

11:34 bagira; mjg59_, nah, that's just you looking for a way to cast a false light where brighter lights are shining

11:35 mjg59_; bagira: You saying "This is defamatory" when the law doesn't agree isn't casting a false light

11:35 mjg59_; schestowitz[TR2]: Are you asserting there are scenarios where it's justifiable to physically assault a partner?

11:36 bagira; mjg59_, and you referring to the results of a test that was never performed is just more false light after you've been exposed already

12:05 bagira; schestowitz[TR2], the kicker is that he will tighten up on the mask for the process which is a high-energy and anxious process that is unsustainable, and if they get captive like that and are forced to mask up tight for too long it usually ends dramatically

12:28 bagira; schestowitz[TR2], those responses are a defense mechanism to try to "correct a loss", which he will reinvent as a "win" in his psychology, so, without that I suggest, he'll just be taking the losses, but it needs to unmute after a while to keep him at the gates

12:28 schestowitz[TR2]; you know what they say about mass stabbers

12:28 bagira; they lie about people?

12:29 schestowitz[TR2]; they start by torturing animals, like kicking puppies :-)

12:29 schestowitz[TR2]; he was on mute here for about a year

12:29 schestowitz[TR2]; until we left freenode

12:29 bagira; i dont expect anything like that in this case re: animals

12:29 schestowitz[TR2]; and we decided to be hands-off

12:29 schestowitz[TR2]; he was the only muted person

12:29 bagira; lol

12:30 bagira; i bet it drove him craycray

12:30 schestowitz[TR2]; he used sockpuppt

12:30 schestowitz[TR2]; to tell me he sent me lawwsuit threat

12:30 schestowitz[TR2]; it was very importanst for him

12:30 bagira; lol

12:30 schestowitz[TR2]; to intimidate me

12:30 schestowitz[TR2]; after I had accused him of defaming me

12:30 bagira; yeah i wonder why he hasn't tried to sue me yet

12:30 schestowitz[TR2]; http://techrights.org/2021/03/05/google-funded-trolls/

http://techrights.org/2021/03/05/google-funded-trolls/

12:30 bagira; perhaps he knows what kind of shitstorm is in that can of worms

12:30 TR Bot; Professional Troll Matthew Garrett Spreads Libel, Defamation and Slander About the Free Software Community to Entertain Microsoft and Friends | Techrights

12:31 bagira; i actually try very hard to avoid litigating over anything

12:32 bagira; like if someone borrows a bunch of money and doesn't pay it back, ill hit them up occassionally for it and if it becomes obvious they're welching, ill just write them out of my life usually

12:33 bagira; but when i do litigate

12:33 bagira; ....

12:34 bagira; anyway, i would just bear in mind that he's getting a little rush from being able to pop off those one-liners and it gives him the ability to rewrite being called out as a competition of words that he will convince himself that he "won"

12:34 bagira; in much the same way he views himself as a "leading expert" of anything

12:36 psydruid; a "leading expert" of spreading lies and malicious computing

12:36 bagira; it's all ego-driven

12:36 bagira; like with T'so, the motivation wasn't to clear room for others, it was for the attention the publication was going to get him

12:37 bagira; secure boot -- attention and validation

12:37 bagira; even negative attention is narcissistic supply

12:50 schestowitz[TR2]; that's universallt true, BUT

12:50 schestowitz[TR2]; it's not that simple

12:50 schestowitz[TR2]; not all publicity is a gain

12:50 schestowitz[TR2]; my grandad said,

12:50 schestowitz[TR2]; people can become "famous" by being mass murderers

12:51 schestowitz[TR2]; also, some "fame" lowers your relevance span

12:51 schestowitz[TR2]; you can post a lie or clickbait

12:51 schestowitz[TR2]; the gain is temporarily

12:51 schestowitz[TR2]; "boy who cried wolf"

12:51 schestowitz[TR2]; not all publicity helps... where's Glen Beck?

23:02 DaemonFC; Me: How does Reddit make sure adult content is legal?

23:02 DaemonFC; ChatGPT: Reddit has policies and guidelines that prohibit illegal content, including sexually explicit or suggestive material. They enforce these policies through a combination of automated filters, human moderators, and user reports. Reddit may also comply with law enforcement requests to remove illegal content. However, it's important to note that enforcing these policies can be difficult and Reddit does not guarantee the legality of all

23:02 DaemonFC; content posted on the site.

23:02 DaemonFC; Me: So basically it doesn't care because Section 230 protects them as long as they remove it if they become aware of it.

23:02 DaemonFC; ChatGPT: That's correct. As a website operator, Reddit has immunity from liability for the user-generated content that is posted on its platform, as long as it acts in good faith to remove any illegal or infringing content that it becomes aware of. This immunity is provided by Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which is a federal law in the United States. However, Reddit still has a responsibility to take reasonable steps to remove

23:02 DaemonFC; illegal or infringing content, and failure to do so could result in liability.

23:03 bagira; how is 4chan protected by that

23:04 DaemonFC; Me: Does anything protect users who have seen inappropriate material from being prosecuted if it was on Reddit and Reddit has complied with Section 230?

23:04 DaemonFC; ChatGPT: No, users who view or share illegal content are not protected by Section 230 or any similar law. Section 230 only protects online intermediaries like Reddit from being held liable for the actions of their users. Viewing or sharing illegal content can still result in criminal charges for the user, regardless of whether the content was hosted on a website protected by Section 230 or not. It is important to exercise caution and to always

23:04 DaemonFC; follow the law when using the internet.

23:04 DaemonFC; Me: Even if the person who loaded such content in a browser was totally unaware of that illegality?

23:05 DaemonFC; ChatGPT: In the United States, Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act generally provides immunity for websites like Reddit for third-party content posted on their platform. This means that, as a user, you are generally protected from criminal or civil liability for viewing illegal content that you did not know was illegal and that was posted by someone else. However, it's important to note that there are some exceptions to Section 230

23:05 DaemonFC; immunity, such as in cases involving federal criminal law, intellectual property law, and other specific laws. Additionally, Section 230 only applies in the US, and different countries may have different laws and protections regarding online content.

23:06 DaemonFC; Me: So a person casually browsing Reddit who accidentally loads such material could be logged by Reddit and then find themselves the subject of criminal proceedings for unintentional violations of federal law?

23:06 DaemonFC; ChatGPT: In theory, it's possible that someone who accidentally views illegal adult content on Reddit could be subject to prosecution, however, the likelihood of that happening is low. It's important to note that law enforcement would have to prove that the person knowingly and intentionally viewed the illegal material, which can be difficult to do in a casual browsing scenario. Additionally, Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act

23:06 DaemonFC; provides protection for websites like Reddit, so they would not be held liable for the actions of their users.

23:07 DaemonFC; Me: In theory, if a user ended up in this situation and later deleted browsing history for whatever reason, could they be charged with Obstruction under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act?

23:07 DaemonFC; ChatGPT: In theory, it is possible for a person to be charged with Obstruction under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for deleting browsing history that relates to illegal activity. However, such a charge would be difficult to prove and would likely require additional evidence beyond just the deletion of the browsing history. Additionally, the applicability of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in this context would depend on the specific circumstances and the law

23:07 DaemonFC; enforcement agencies involved. It's important to note that the Sarbanes-Oxley Act was enacted primarily in response to accounting fraud and financial reporting abuses by corporations, and it's not clear how the act would apply to the average person's browsing history.

23:07 DaemonFC; LOL

23:07 DaemonFC; <bagira> how is 4chan protected by that

23:07 DaemonFC; They're an online service provider same as Reddit.

23:07 DaemonFC; But it wouldn't protect anyone who has seen it.

23:08 bagira; yeah what doesn't make sense is that immunity from liability is a result of reddit removing content when they become aware of it

23:08 bagira; 4chan doesn't do that afaict

23:08 h4unt3d; a chatbot isn't anything innovative, it seems someone had invested giant amounts of money into infrastructure to process giant text data bases

23:08 DaemonFC; Reddit knows what you view and who you are because (1) You're logged in, (2) they retain your IP addresses that you've used with the account, and (3) if feds came snooping around, they could just hand over everyone who has seen this content.

23:09 h4unt3d; although, i would be curious, how ChatGPT could push to the level of quality seen

23:10 h4unt3d; some basic building block, is the inverse function of a search engine, which suggests "did you mean"

23:11 h4unt3d; and i suspect, pre-generated text-blocks exist, a giant amount of document-corpus, to match against

23:20 MinceR; it just needs to be supervised by someone who is already good at that

23:20 bagira; it has some ethical safeguards so it tries to resist answering on adversarial models but if you ask in the right way it'll very systematically define a threat model with a profile you define

23:20 h4unt3d; it's overrated, and dangerous, and unnecessary too

23:20 bagira; it's very very good at the high level

23:20 bagira; it's less good at the low level

23:21 bagira; as long as you can roughly traverse the abstractions you can do some cool things with it

23:21 h4unt3d; obviously the algorithms can, 1) identify many relevant books and then 2) skim those for you, and 3) construct the text-blocks... this is what ChatGPT does

23:22 bagira; its doing a little more than that

23:22 bagira; the next version will be an order of magnitude better too

23:22 MinceR; it was on the brochure, it has got to be true

23:23 bagira; nah there are technical drivers

23:23 h4unt3d; i see little to no relevant progress, ordinary search engines and wikipedia existed before, and ChatGPT builds upon that

23:23 bagira; well, try to use your imagination a little harder

23:24 h4unt3d; in essence, this is what ChatGPT does, in comparison to some other use-case

23:24 bagira; ive had it for a day and unblocked 3 of my projects that i couldn't with just google

23:24 h4unt3d; such as, sorting emails into pre-defined mailboxes, which got a filter-criteria set, and emails routed into those automatically

23:25 h4unt3d; this is what ChatGPT does, the query routing obviously is more sophisticated, and must depend on GIGANTIC text-corpus to match against

23:25 MinceR; or it was just trained with a gigantic text corpus

23:25 bagira; its generated content is disturbingly relevant to be just that

23:26 h4unt3d; i think, this ChatGPT doesn't at least build upon traditional neural network perceptrons (which is what's referred to with traditional AI)

23:26 MinceR; no, it has more layers

23:26 MinceR; "deep learning" is all the rage

23:26 h4unt3d; it's not an "AI", it is a "natural language processing" system, a sophisticated, but it's not AI and it is probably not any of the learning algorithms involved either

23:27 bagira; if the next version is what it claims to be ill probably build an "alexa"-esque kiosk with voice recognition and text to speech for the house

23:27 h4unt3d; i had not seen any such system before, except the one i programmed myself, year 2016, which wasn't that capable, but nonetheless, the principle was the same

23:27 MinceR; "Natural language processing (NLP) is an interdisciplinary subfield of linguistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence"

23:27 MinceR; emphasis mine

23:28 h4unt3d; depends on the defintion of AI, if it excludes neural network perceptrons, then it is not traditional AI

23:28 MinceR; why would it exclude perceptrons?

23:28 h4unt3d; because, i think, those are not suitable for what ChatGPT does

23:29 MinceR; are you familiar with the concept of subclasses and subsets?

23:29 h4unt3d; anyway, if you signed up for ChatGPT, could you do me a favor and ask the question i proposed?

23:29 h4unt3d; "what is an alternative approach to heisenbergs uncertainty principle, to avoid the mis-conception of the planck quantum?"

23:31 bagira; sign up for it yourself, nobody here is your PA

23:32 h4unt3d; of cause not, yet it may have been interesting for everyone, to see how smart ChatGTP really was.

23:32 h4unt3d; if at least one plausible sentence could be excreted by that thing.

23:33 bagira; your comments reflect that you haven't tested it

23:33 bagira; it's genuinely impressive

23:33 h4unt3d; it is just, there isn't any book or text available, chatgpt could copy-paste from

23:33 bagira; it's not

23:33 h4unt3d; bagira: i had programmed such a system for nlp myself while ago, that's why i am curious

23:34 bagira; i view it as a milestone innovation for that whole field

23:35 bagira; i also think if someone replicated it without the safety features they baked in that it would be an extremely dangerous product

23:35 h4unt3d; then it deserved appropriate scientific criticism, hence, let me see what ChatGPT has to say

23:35 MinceR; if someone replicated it as free software, it could be a good starting point

23:35 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR2], I was reverse engineering the police interview of Rick Jones using ChatGPT.

23:35 h4unt3d; ChatGPT: "what is an alternative approach to heisenbergs uncertainty principle, to avoid the mis-conception of the planck quantum?"

23:35 DaemonFC; Notice they didn't go into a plea deal with him.

23:35 MinceR; but the only thing "open" about it is part of the domain

23:35 h4unt3d; i mean, ChatGPT, could at least say something? couldn't it?

23:35 DaemonFC; They didn't need to. The detective gathered a confession and evidence of guilty mind.

23:36 DaemonFC; Odds are he would have been punished even less than he was had he shut up.

23:36 DaemonFC; Or tested the "free to leave" theory.

23:36 h4unt3d; garbage-in garbage-out

23:37 DaemonFC; It's generally best to ask if you're free to leave and then if they say yes, to force the issue immediately.

23:37 DaemonFC; If you get arrested anyway, ask for an attorney.

23:37 DaemonFC; If you don't, then walk away from it and immediately consult an attorney.

23:37 DaemonFC; But don't agree to any interviews or questions.

23:57 h4unt3d; i see, when ChatGPT receives many requests, the servers can't handle those

23:58 h4unt3d; little surprising, since the matching algorithms are extremely expensive, to scrape text blocks from gigantic data bases
