⍝ When copying a chunk to a transfer buffer
Last year, a Texan with a master’s degree in divinity who was teaching voice models to respond to queries with appropriate levels of feeling — different tones for a user telling them their dog died versus asking for a trip itinerary — logged in to work one morning and found his dashboard empty. Scrolling to the bottom of the page for the support button, he discovered it no longer worked. That’s when he knew he had been terminated. His mind raced through possible reasons: Had he worked too much? Had his quality slipped? He knew he would never find out. “I felt cut adrift,” he says. Anxious about how he would pay his bills and care for his ailing dog, he grew depressed, then horrified. He thought about his teacher friends who couldn’t get their students to write and all the people graduating with now-worthless computer-science degrees. “The technology makes us see everything as a utility, something to be used,” he says, a category that he feels includes discarded data workers like himself. He resolved to become a chaplain, figuring that no matter what the AI future holds, people will need a fellow human to be there for them.
多次与Ace交手、有胜有负的精英级选手竹中瑞则认为,这台机器人对不同发球质量的“识别能力”令人印象深刻。 他表示,当自己发出带有复杂旋转的发球时,Ace也会以复杂旋转予以还击,使他在随后的相持中非常吃力;而当他改用旋转较弱的“无旋转球”(俗称“飘球”或“擦边无转”)发球时,Ace的回球也相对简单,从而为他在第三板抢攻创造了机会,这被他视为能够战胜Ace的关键因素之一。

Any tech nerd knows the unspoken contract that comes with being the only tech-literate person in the family. You get texts when someone’s laptop is slow, called over during the holidays to fix the router, and consulted every eighteen months when someone needs a new phone or computer. For years, the laptop question had a clean, confident answer: a Windows machine. Cheap entry points, massive software compatibility, games that actually run, no walled gardens, no ecosystem hostage situations, and enough flexibility that even a non-technical person could figure out the basics without feeling like they’d violated a terms of service agreement. But the last time someone asked me what laptop to get, I paused. For a good minute I asked myself, should I even recommend Windows anymore?
