I'm super confused as well.
This seems like exactly that, just some default prompt injections to chose from. I guess I kinda understand them in the context of their claude chat UI product.
"AI" companies have reached the end of the road when it comes to throwing more data and compute at the problem. The only way now for charts to go up and to the right is to deliver value-added services.
And, to be fair, there's a potentially long and profitable road by doing good engineering work that was needed anyways.
But it should be obvious to anyone within this bubble that this is not the road to "superintelligence" or "AGI". I hope that the hype and false advertising stops soon, so that we can focus on practical applications of this technology, which are numerous.
Antisemitism is a form of bigotry, no more or less special than other forms of bigotry and racism.
If you read any significant amount of history you'd know that already, and you wouldn't need to prove that Antisemitism is real. Of course it is. So is anti-[insert religious or ethnic group]
Curious who uses iMac over a MBP with an external monitor? Is it mainly for front desk, businesses, and perhaps people with large homes and need stationary mac?
I'm a typical software engineer nerd who uses a MacBook Pro for work.
My last two home computers have been 27" iMacs. Each one has lasted me about 8 years and I've been happy with both of them. Nice big display, good specs, not a lot of clutter. Really good bang for the buck.
At home, I use them for making music (Ableton Live), video production (DaVinci Resolve), photo processing (Photoshop and Lightroom), and programming (various IDEs and editors). I much prefer one good display over a pair of them.
Long-term, maybe it would be more cost effective to get a Mac Mini so that I don't end up paying to replace the display when I replace the machine. But display technology seems to advance about as fast as other hardware specs do, so I suspect I'd want a new monitor at about that rate anyway.
Going forward, though, I probably won't buy another iMac. That's largely because now that I make music with Ableton Live, I want a laptop that I can (aspirationally!) take to shows to play live on.
But for well over a decade, I've been a happy iMac user. I don't care about upgradeability. I buy a machine that has the specs I want when I buy it.
It might also be a good choice for those who always work at one desk, have established a work/life balance such that they don't need a portable computer, and would prefer not to pay extra to have portability that they just don't require.
An M4 iMac with 10 CPU cores, 10 GPU cores, 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD costs $1700.
A 14" MBP with 8 CPU cores, 10 GPU cores, 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD costs $2000. Before you add a 27" monitor and desktop keyboard/pointing device.
Why pay that premium if you don't actually need to carry your desktop PC around?
Been using it for 10 years. It's my favorite mouse to use. Scrolling and tap gesture is the main reason I prefer it. I also like touching glass/aluminum over plastic.
I'm a little confused.
