What were its advantages over Firefox?

It would be so much of a better show if it wasn't such a copoganda. The writing is great, actors are great, but their insistence to suck cops dics and portray the police as this noble organization that is making the world the better place one brutalised civilian at a time is just tiring.

Yeah, the scary thing about LLMs is that by their very nature they sound convincing and it's very easy to fall into a trap, we as humans are hardwired to misconstrue the ability to talk smoothly for intelligence, and when computer started to speak with complete sentences and hold the immediate context of a conversation, we immediately started to think that we have a thinking machine and started believing it.
The worst thing is, there are legit uses for all the machine learning stuff and LLMs in particular, so we can't just throw it all out of the window, we will have to collectively adapt to this very convincing randomness machine that is just here all the time

As someone with degrees and decades of experience, I urge you not use it for that. It's a cleverly disguised randomness machine, it will give you incorrect information that will be indistinguishable from truth because "truth" is never the criteria that it can use, but be convincing is. It will seed those untruths into you and unlearning bad practices that you picked up at the beginning might take years and cost you a career. And since you're just starting, you have no idea how to pick up bullshit from truth as long as the final result seem to work, and that's the works way to hide the bullshit from you.
The field is already very accessible for everyone who wants to learn it, the amount of guides, examples, teaching courses, very useful youtube videos with thick Indian accent is already enormous, and most of them are at least trying to self-correct, while LLM actively doesn't, in fact it's trying to do the opposite.
Best case scenario you're learning inefficiently, worst case scenario you aren't learning at all

Don't overestimate LLMs, it can't code and never will be. It can create templates convincingly enough and do boilerplate parts that are nonsense only sometimes, but those aren't the fun parts of the coding process anyway. In my experience, LLM isn't helping at all and I spend more time fixing it's nonsense than I would do if I don't use it at all, so I don't

And for the crime of being send to death they should be punished by not having the newest divers. That'll show them.

But social media don't have to burn tar. They chose to because this way they can get more money, but it's not an inherent part of the system, it's an exploitation of it for profit, and can be separated

Nah, you just butthurt that your putinsucking goes unappreciated

Bitcoin is anything but reliable and independent. And it's 2% for the miniscule inconsequential amount of transactions it does compared to the amount of transactions happening.
