Good point, it did mention US in the title

I’m going to guess you mean New Hampshire in the USA?

The best was when you heard how the Professors got their job back in the 70s-80s.
They generally just finished a PhD and were given a position!

The real answer is that there is currently an AI arms race (mostly) between Google and OpenAI.
The way that the modern internet economy works is that the winners generally take the majority of the market and everyone else takes the scraps.
I work in machine learning and have spoken with some of the Google engineers about it recently. They said that when ChatGPT blew up last year, it sent shockwaves through the whole company. They had thought that they were ahead on AI, but suddenly realised that they were WAY behind.
Now they are putting a ton of effort into trying to push new models and uses because they are worried about becoming the “Bing of AI” rather than the “Google of AI”

That’s such a good point. I really appreciated how it wasn’t scared to let viewers figure things out.

When they say something like “60 days battery life” what they mean is using the device for half an hour everyday for 60 days.
OP is arguing that it would make more sense to just say the continuous use battery life, which in the above example would be 30 hours (60 × 0.5)

Ah yeah I see!
I was just thinking of trying to do it without erasing anyone’s game or making them start over.

Doesn’t the original only have a single save slot?
So you’d need at least a third copy for both of you to get all three.
