If you’re wondering why I barely post on here anymore, it’s mostly because I don’t want to contribute to a platform that welcomes literal Nazis. Not judging anyone. It costed me a lot professionally. But I just can’t. (To find me elsewhere, see my bio.) threads.net/@mattnavarra/post/C6f-FYCIfjw/Permalink

While working with #Rstats or #Python on your data, you may have seen the word "dependency". In programming, what is a dependency exactly? I just published a new Wiki post answering this question. You can read my post here: o.simardcasanova.net/wiki-15/Permalink

Air Canada had to refund a customer after its customer service AI hallucinated. Generative AIs deserve better than moral panics. But they also should not be treated as miracle solutions by ignoring their well-documented limitations.

If you’re French, don’t use @RevolutBusiness They have no notion of what a « nom d’usage » is, despite « nom d’usage » being a common occurrence. You will lose literal hours trying to make them, check notes, *use your correct name*. This level of incompetence is mind-blowing.Permalink
