They won't just cheer, they'll insist that you cheer with them and recognize it's the brightest bulb in the brightest room anyone has seen, probably ever. If you don't agree, deported for being a satanic homosexual antifa terrorist.

They're arresting people who just stopped and touched a piece to inspect it.

He has also designed boats, paddles and other waterproof products, and said he was curious about what materials had been used to paint the pool. The 67-year-old said he only touched the material briefly before he was told by one of the park service workers helping to clean the algae from the pool to stop.

OCR libraries have undoubtedly improved but LLMs are using the same open source libraries and tools available to anyone... there's few cases where sending the work through general models is worth it for text conversion. Employees just needed a front end to upload, run something like tesseract behind the scenes, and spit out the result. It's an egregiously stupid use of resources.

I know a company that burned $100k in tokens after they they let like 50 worker bees using general AI for OCR, simply converting images and PDFs to text.

They didn't bother to create a skill, or teach the AI how to reuse a shared script so every request resulted in it writing a new python project, pulling libraries, using a frontier model rather than offloading a dumb one etc.

Basically find a business process that happens often and let em at it inefficiently, it'll happily chew through the budget.

The public site is the first impression and introduction of a product, and this one has all sorts of slop signs around it. You can see how that can make someone skeptical to the quality of application. I don't agree "computers can do it better" - I'd prefer a plain old website that gets to the point over one showing useless graphics, generated text, and non-functional interactions.

I appreciate the candidness. Hopefully you can understand AI presentation generally implies an AI product, and without source code to audit, it raises some flags. Clarity of where AI is used as you've done here helps.

You can at least admit the marketing site is AI, yes?

I've lived here over a decade with no shelving in the shower, and I finally bought an organizer! This has been a huge quality of life upgrade, it's great having everything off the floor within reach. The shelving was super easy to install and I feel dumb tolerating the situation for so long.

 
 

The package now goes back to the House, where Speaker Mike Johnson had warned senators not to deviate too far from what his chamber had already approved. But the Senate did make changes, particularly to Medicaid, risking more problems as they race to finish by Trump’s Fourth of July deadline.
