Education: why is this not surprising? Chromebooks have become an albatross for elementary schools across the country. Link to The WSJ. I twinge whenever I see an elementary student using a Chromebook. You get what you pay for. Costco sold a lot of Chromebooks when they first came out. I assume they still do.

Got a Chromebook last year. Have regretted it ever since.
ReplyDeleteBTW- I readily admit I googled the GPT to answer the poll.
Several things. First, thank you for writing. Second, I really apologize -- that was inappropriate and a "mean" thing to say -- something I would chastise the "elite" for saying. I should not have been so harsh on Chromebook. Chromebook served a purpose and still serves a purpose. Many, many folks had a personal computer because the Chromebook was affordable. I do apologize. I can't retract what I said but I suppose I need to be a bit more sensitive. Finally, yes, "GPT" is a weird acronym. Very few are likely to know what it means and only with multiple choice might they get it. I certainly did not know. I will be posting a blog on ChatGPT and OpenAI later. This is really, really quite fascinating.
DeleteI see no need for apologies. Chromebook was overhyped for its capabilities, IMO and I bought one b/c of the hype. Have been disappointed, 1- Because it is not capable of what I expected (What it does do, it does well) and 2- I bought into the hype. I am usually better at researching these things.
ReplyDeleteThe entire AI arena is an interesting environment, investment wise, frot with some many side issues, dangerous and exciting at the same time
Thank you for your kind words, re: Chrome. As you can probably tell from the blog, I am absolutely fascinated by the generative AI story, CPUs, GPUs, who's doing what; who is partnering with whom. From an investing point of view, I don't follow the start-ups and that's where the real money is made and lost, so I have to stick with the better-known larger companies.
