"IDIOT-PROOF" TYPEWRITERS Ordinary typewriters are only as good as the people who use them. Above, we see a typical, poorly-typed letter. Note mistakes in spelling, phrasing, syntax, etc... The Idiot-Proof Typewriter will include memory tapes that store millions of words, phrases and correct grammatical expressions. As writer types, two letters will be produced simultaneously: the usual stupid one and instantly-corrected version. Recipient of letter will find it easy to understand. Of course, a few people will be nostalgic for the old personal style, but isn't perfection better than sentiment?
Incident Report Incident Update 30 minutes ago Great news! Our intern's suggestion shows promising early results. However, they will be away for a week preparing for their final exams. Progress may temporarily slow down until they return. If anyone knows how to convince the Rust borrow checker that our year value outlives the function scope, please email me. It keeps saying my numbers are dead. Thanks! Incident Update 2 hours ago We are running out of ideas. Our intern is suggesting we generate multiple year predictions and use statistical averaging and rounding the number to the nearest integer to get the current year. We are considering this. Incident Update 8 hours ago Devin made things worse by trying to use some experimental AI model. Now the API is sometimes returning next year instead of the current year. We had to revert his changes and he's no longer working with us. Back to square one. Incident Update 10 hours ago We got a hold of this guy called Devin. He is now working with our intern to fix the issue. Thanks for your patience. Incident Update 14 hours ago Our intern identified the problem being the knowledge cutoff of GPT-4o which caused it to hallucinate the current year as 2024. We are now trying to figure out what AI agents are and if they can help us resolve the issue. Current Incident Last night Service degradation: Our API is occasionally returning 2024 instead of 2025. Our intern is investigating and working on a fix. We apologize for any inconvenience.
