They don't get sarcasm, even when it's pointed out.

Nazis aren't good at symbolic thinking, that's why they hate postmodernism so much. They keep falling afoul of the reification fallacy, embarrassing themselves with their inability to distinguish signifiers from the signified and frequently confusing human inventions with facts of nature.

The funny part is how this works whether you're referencing 4chan or Star Trek

They named it after an omnipotent dickhead?

At least Star Trek Q helped humanity whilst irritating people.

I doubt Amazon's data harvesting apparatus will do the same.

It says internal, so whatever it is collecting is probably different than consumer data collection

Will they have an anonymous version?

I misread the headline as AI chat bot for wankers but that probably still works tbh

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Similar to OpenAI's ChatGPT, Amazon Q users can talk to the chatbot like it's a human.

The AI chatbot can connect to services like Gmail, Google Drive, Microsoft Teams, and Slack for additional data.

Amazon Q is the latest competitor to a growing family of AI chatbots big tech companies have launched over the past year.

In April, Amazon announced Bedrock, a generative AI toolkit that includes a range of machine learning models.

In September, Amazon unveiled its plans to invest $4 billion into Anthropic, an AI startup.

Amazon didn't immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment.


The original article contains 310 words, the summary contains 98 words. Saved 68%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
