    Note: this AI is almost definitely not LLMs

    It’s just statistics and machine learning rebranded to charge more.

      Dear God, I’d hope so. Although I’d 100% believe Alberta would put an LLM in charge of road safety and only implement the bad stuff.

        Prompt: what are some ideas to increase road safety?

        ChatGPT: To keeps roads safe, one should use a layer of sunscreen and/or moisturizer as roads are exposed to wind and sun throughout the entirety of their life.

        If that isn’t feasible, store your roads in a climate controlled room, at around 50% humidity and 20-25C. No natural light is preferred.

        One could also require all vehicles to use meter-wide memory foam tyres wrapped in silk.

        One last option - and probably the most cost effective - is to simply not have roads. Roads can’t be unsafe if they don’t exist.

    The Calgary Herald is American owned media pretending to be Canadian, infiltrating Canadian culture and politics.

      The same plan as how Mark Carney will cut government spending, they’ll increase government efficiency by appealing to a hallucination.
