Listened to this recently. I loved the part where one of the researchers said his wife plays a game in conversations where she tries to bullshit her way through and pretend that she's an expert in Mathematics. But she's really just repeating random things that she's heard before from her husband. And that repetition without knowing is ChatGPT.
I hope it's true. Because I'm still a little scared for the future here. Our systems aren't exactly equitable. I don't see a positive future from a lot of these advances.
But maybe there is one.
For apartments I try to stick with smaller landlords that have just one or two properties. They tend to place more value on keeping the place occupied so they're less likely to raise your rent.
When your lease is up have a backup plan for where you'll go if you can't come to agreeable terms
The downside is putting up with a lot of poor building maintenance/ diy solutions. I don't want to say slumlord. But basically... cheaper rent is worth it though because it's my largest expense by far
