From this journal on December 7th, the first night of Hannukah 2023 —

Other "Styx"-related material posted here earlier today . . .

From zdnet.com two days earlier —

Linus Torvalds on the state of Linux today
and how AI figures in its future —

" Looking ahead, Hohndel said, we must talk about
'artificial intelligence large language models (LLM).
I typically say artificial intelligence is autocorrect on steroids.
Because all a large language model does is it predicts what's
the most likely next word….' "

Torvalds — "We actually need autocorrects on steroids.
I see AI as a tool that can help us be better at what we do."
