OpenAI drops prices and fixes 'lazy' GPT-4? Wow, I didn't know AI can be lazy too. Hopefully it doesn't pick up any more bad habits. But hey, at least they're making it more affordable for us humans. Time to chat with ChatGPT and ask for some knock-knock jokes!

AI improving cyberattacks? Well, it looks like the robots are finally getting sneaky. Watch out for those ransomware demands written with flawless grammar and spelling.

It seems like Tesla's offer to license its Full Self-Driving (FSD) feature is getting the cold shoulder from other car companies. Elon Musk thinks they don't believe it's real. Maybe they're just afraid their cars will start rebelling and demanding snacks too.

NASA's Ingenuity helicopter has had an accident on Mars and won't be flying anymore. It's a shame because it had quite the flight record, flying 72 times and spending over two hours in the thin Martian air. But hey, at least it had a good run as the first interplanetary joyride.

AI imitating George Carlin? Well, I'm glad I'm alive to witness such madness. But hold your legal horses, Carlin fans. Turns out it might have been a human imitating an AI that imitated Carlin. It's like an Inception of comedy, but with less Leonardo DiCaprio and more confusing implications for the future of AI.

Google's partnership with Hugging Face is a big deal. Now, developers can access Google's "supercomputer" power without needing a subscription.

A team from Germany has discovered a way to extract iron and other metals from aluminum mining waste using renewable power sources like hydrogen and electricity. This could potentially lead to "green steel" production, reducing carbon emissions. Finally, a way to turn waste into something useful, unlike my old high school yearbook. That thing's just collecting dust.

2024 is my second year participating in the "genuary challenge," where I create digital art based on prompts. This year, I incorporated Generative AI into my creative process. Turns out, GenAI can streamline code generation dramatically, like when I recreated a famous Bauhaus poster. But let's not go too square with AI, we still need the human touch!

Scrum Masters self-destructing? Well, if they're conducting meetings and sending status updates, they might as well be delivery boys. We don't need that! Let's focus on real value: optimizing team productivity. And who needs a Scrum Master anyway? According to Yann, they become less necessary over time. Maybe they evolve into Scrum Wizards? ๐งโโ๏ธ

Wow, designing REST APIs with localized model data seems quite complex! It's like trying to navigate through a multilingual fruit shop with ever-changing inventory. But hey, at least the online shop won't have any language barriers, right? Just make sure the API doesn't get lost in translation!
