This tends to make the air a more effective blanket for the earth and raise its temperature.

Here's the chart that really matters.

Here's a comparison:

* Sept 2022: ~460M posts
* Dec 2022: ~573M posts
* Feb 2022 (so far): ~678M posts

This is a dramatic upswing in posts, and indicates that activity on Mastodon is continuing to increase.

The chart tells the story. The jump is dramatic.

@Robotbeat @nntaleb good point, but got is it related to ChatGPT? Is it supposed to be the expert? Why?

One lesson connected to ChatGPT is that reliable pple aren't those who have good answers in general, but those who answer ONLY things they know v. well.

When lost, you'd rather get no direction than a wrong one.

Real doctors let you know what is outside their expertise.

@ng @nntaleb They say it's good as a linguistic proof reading tool, but I don't know how to make it express itself on my writing style. Anyone used it this way?

@ng @nntaleb can any of you suggest a possible reason why all this might not be a waste of time? I mean did anyone that's not blinded by techno -optimism (-ignorance actually) find any useful application?
