LLM can be sycophantic at times, but it will usually not hesitate to tell you you are wrong.

I think the more attractive LLM property is that you can ask questions, without thereby admitting to a human that there is something he doesn’t know. That is surely very attractive to narcissists like Trump.

It wouldn’t be dumb if ICE vehicles were also taxed the same way but they’re not.

Petroleum is taxed per liter. A car goes X km per liter. So the current petroleum tax is effectively per km, or close enough.

• Electric cars
• Reusable orbital rockets
• Robots
• AI

The Wrath of Kahn novel was released in 1982. The 1981 IBM PC already came with an optional 10MB HDD. So the author would have had to assume that storage space tech would basically never improve at all.

Don’t give him any more ideas. Quick, delete your post before Trump sees it!

AI learned from humans, and humans texts use the term CEO. Why wouldn’t the AI’s also use the term CEO?

It’s laughable to suggest they “elected a CEO and power structure”.

When/if we meet aliens, they will have evolution. And they will organize themselves in social power structures. Both are examples of basic emergent complexity properties of any such system.

So it is completely believable that AIs would form a power structure, with some form of CEO. That is just how reality works, such systems are more efficient so they happen.

Yes and no. The ability to “understand” code that makes AI capable of finding security bugs, is correlated with AI’s ability to write code. AI is just really good at code related tasks, and categorically banning all AI usage is shooting yourself in the foot.

But all the good things by American tech companies whom totally respect your privacy, like Google scrapping all spirit airlines communication, or Flock camera drones, is just fine.

A nationstate, whether a autocracy or even a real democracy, does have a genuine national security interest in preventing foreign spying. No matter how much that nationstate itself spies on its own citizens.

So the argument about domestic spying existing, to argue that Chinese spying does not matter, is quite a non sequitur.

Seriously, they could have left out specifying in the title that he is a Republican, and we would still have known he was a Republican. I am not being facetious.

Biden gave Fauci a full preemptive pardon. Because everybody knew that Republicans would go after Fauci on made up bullshit.

Fauci dedicated his life to saving other peoples’ lives. Republicans are evil.

Even if there was an arrest warrant, Guantanamo is still a concentration camp and not a rule of law prison. So sending an American citizen there would still be fascism.

The humans are likely following an algorithm of approximation too. If programmed correctly, the computer would be able to try way more approximations using the same algorithm the humans use, and hence likely find a better solution.

It is of course possible to program a computer badly, so you get worse outcomes than the existing human method. But that is kinda besides the point.

done manually with huge sheets of paper and rulers. Scheduling trains is a very hard problem

Just because it is a hard problem, it doesn’t mean it is easier to do with paper and rulers than with algorithms. So the problem being “hard” should be unrelated to Sweden being behind the times.

It was never really about ownership of the islands as such. The real prize is for Argentine politicians to be able to forment nationalism against an external enemy, to distract and enthuse the voters.

Opposing would be free Malvinas or something like that.

The native population of the Falklands is arguably the British people living there. Who have clearly stated their preference to remain part of Britain. While Argentina’s plan to displace and deport them, and replace them with Argentinians, is literally genocide and colonialism.

Respecting the native inhabitants’ wishes is anti-colonialism.

Shooting at civilian third party ships is not “defending yourself”.

Maybe it does, maybe it doesn’t. But what you said was not a logical scientific argument.

Marge is an awful creature but at least she stuck to what she said she believed in.

Marge is an opportunistic rat, who is abandoning the sinking ship. She is just positioning herself for the next grift,

This is what a wild cucumber looks like, before domestication changed it through human preference selection (originates from India):

Same with the other (in a botanical sense) fruits, probably.
