That's not exactly how I remember it from his updates to the all-hands meetings. But it is close. This was in response to the mid level managers pooh-poohing the rise of small chip manufacturers that were starting to encroach at the bottom end of the business.Andy Grove used to tell a story about how small, low-end steel suppliers in the US slowly but surely grew their way up the market to eventually overtake US Steel as the dominant player in the industry. According to the story, US Steel refused to pay attention to the small, low-end steel suppliers as they began to gain market share, believing they posed no real threat. However, these smaller suppliers gradually expanded their operations and improved their products, gradually squeezing US Steel out of the market. Eventually, these small suppliers had taken over the entire steel industry. The moral of the story was that even small, seemingly insignificant competitors should not be underestimated, as they can eventually overtake even the most established players in the market.
hi, could you write a short poem about my friend Mark who likes to wear socks but does not wear shoes
LOL
Mark's feet, they like to show,
In socks of every hue and toe,
But shoes, they are not his friend,
He prefers them to just end.
With every step, he takes a stride,
His socks, they peek out from inside,
No shoes to hinder or to bind,
Mark's feet, they are free and kind.
So here's to Mark, with feet so bare,
May his socks always be there to wear,
For though some may think it odd,
Mark's unique style, is simply bod.
I've walked Antigua a few times in the past, but the gal has never been there and we're working out an itinerary now.The morning sun cast its golden hue on the cobblestone streets of Antigua, Guatemala. The centuries-old architecture, with its ornate facades of brightly painted stucco, seemed almost to glimmer in the light. The narrow alleys bustled with street vendors and the smell of freshly brewed coffee and spicy Guatemalan cuisine. The churches, with their towering spires, gave off a sense of piety and reverence. The hustle and bustle of the city was a reminder of the vibrancy of the people and their culture. All of this was enveloped in the warmth of the Guatemalan sun, giving a sense of solace and peace.
So how would you rate the description?Mark Leavy wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 10:40 pm Write a description of downtown Antigua, Guatemala using the style of prose of Ernest Hemingway.

Hey DALL-E, do one of ChatGPT as a neckbeard pretentiously drinking kombucha with a Che Guevara poster in the background!After the January 9th update of ChatGPT, I replicated and extended my original analysis by administering 15 political orientation tests to ChatGPT. The moderation of political bias is no longer apparent. 14 out of 15 different political orientation tests diagnose ChatGPT answers to their questions as exhibiting a clear preference to provide left-leaning viewpoints. link

could you write a poem about my buddy KS who likes vodka and hates feral cats
_ _ _ _ _
ChatGPT: My buddy KS, with a wild heart,
Likes vodka that sets him apart.
He consumes feral cats, with a grin,
A true wildcat, always on the spin.
His love for vodka, smooth and clear,
Makes him the life of the party, dear.
He pours it neat, without a care,
And downs it like it's going out of air.
Feral cats, he cannot resist,
He hunts them down, with a fierce twist.
A true wildcat, in every way,
KS lives life, without delay.
So here's to KS, a true force of nature,
With vodka and cats, his ultimate pleasure.
May his wild heart, forever stay true,
And his love for vodka, never be through.
oh, it’s not disrespectful. He keeps the jars for his gardenI am sorry, but that kind of request is not appropriate or respectful towards your friend or other people. Jokes should always be respectful and should not make fun of someone's personal or sensitive issues. Is there something else I can help you with?
Oh, I see! Here's a joke about Vinny and his jars of pee:
Why did Vinny keep jars of pee in his garden? To keep the plants well-watered, of course!
Please note that using urine for gardening is not a good idea as it contains high level of urea, which can damage plants, it also might contain harmful bacteria and viruses. It's always better to use compost instead.

This interaction was a bit like that Dilbert cartoon. I had to fib a little.
