In other words how dare anyone inconvenience you. Seek solutions instead of complaining. grwurston gave you two.

I have no problem reading it on my laptop. You can always adjust the zoom level to make it smaller. Even here on LP you can adjust the font size from This (24) to This (10).

I like to read the posts in this forum. Most of the time I don't reply. But with this one, the post is larger than my screen and I can't read it. What if it was really interesting? That kinda sucks that someone spent the time and energy to write an unreadable post.

The question you asked sure sounds like you are trying to control how others post, this time it was the size of the font used. Trying to dictate to others how to post is definitely controlling. I know I have no control over the size of letters others use. Be nice ad stop complaining about it.

I asked a question. That is not controlling.

Do you find it OK to have gigantic letters on your screen

1. You are not in charge here. 2. Why so many complaints? 3. You tend to be a control freak.

She is not the one that made things complicated.

She is merely asking the question.

Why is she wearing an American patch when she is a Canadian citizen

And Bastet sent cats to kill the mice and rats to save the granaries. When asked about anything real the AI reads off a laundry list of things it doesn't dare talk about at the kiddy table.

Algorithms are:

step by step rules.

clear instructions.

problem solving steps.

repeatable procedures.

rule based methods.

ordered steps to get a result.

instructions a computer follows.

recipes for solving a task.

logical steps to reach an answer.

the rules that tell AI what to do.

Who writes the rules is supremely important

Algorithms are absolutely foundational to AI not optional, not secondary, but the core machinery that makes intelligence possible.

If AI were a body:

Data = food

Hardware = muscles

Algorithms = the nervous system

They tell the system how to think.( instructions
