  4. Ask HN: How do you speak of AI advances without invoking "AGI"?

    "AGI" is often used as a very hand-wavy heuristic. How can you discuss topics where AGI is often invoked but be clearer about what is under discussion? AI transitions to AGI at a point that seems not easy to define. So…

  24. Ask HN: Why is the spelling poor on HN?

    I'm over 50 and wondering: is spelling less a part of education these days? On any post with a lot of comments, I see obvious misspellings, not just loose for lose, but things spellcheckers catch easily, such as…
