Carat

After running Carat for about a week, you will start to receive personalized recommendations for improving your battery life. Carat is a research project based out of the AMP Lab in the EECS Department at UC Berkeley, collaborating with the University of Helsinki

Just seeing if I can get rid of the bot's name, I've deleted the post but the name has remained for some reason.
I am hoping that this post will remove the bot name from the list :evil:


That worked, now out of curiosity, if I delete this post will the bot name return?

No it didn't :)

I’ve always loved active fun — and escape rooms are my favorite way to challenge the mind while staying on the move. 🧩🚪

Blah blah blah

Seriously.... do you just sit and think of ways to fit your crappy ads into posts here? This forum is like an old sweater and we love it. It doesn't get much traffic anymore but when it does, we hope it's something worth posting. Rest assured, sooner or later I will kill your links. (Probably later.)

I like the old sweater analogy :mrgreen:

They give themselves away so easily with the links now, but I'm scared about the day when the AI gets so good that we can't tell whether they are bots are human :evil:
