State subsidies and a huge protected home market.
But to be fair, they really made the most of it. So absolutely also talent.

The article says Mac sales are declining too.
Apparently most of the decline is people that are simply ditching their PC because they don’t need it anymore.

Yeah it’s far from perfect, but it’s still better than most countries in most ways.
Child protection however is an extremely difficult area, because getting it wrong is horrible, despite they think they are helping the child. In other situations, there really is a need to protect the child.

I don’t know if this woman has gotten her children back

Probably not, the standard mode for social workers/services I’ve seen here in Denmark, is to double down, no matter how wrong their original decision was. It was their decision, and they are right by law, and it basically can’t be questioned.

simply being Greenlandic will be enough to get the attention of social workers.

The tests cover attachment, personality traits, cognitive abilities and psychopathology, and take about 15-20 hours. It is almost impossible to pass them, says Nellemann; even he and his colleagues have failed to do so.

I remember reading about this late last year, and I remember not trusting that social worker or the process one bit.
I once watched a documentary about this kind of “social service” and some of their methods are 100% unscientific, and don’t take personality traits or just moods into account, like whether a person is extro- or introvert. I even posted about it on feddit.dk, but was met with much skepticism. One of the things I saw, was that if a baby doesn’t seek eye contact with a stranger holding it, it should be a sign that the mother doesn’t give the baby enough attention! Yes really it’s that stupid! When obviously it’s more likely the baby doesn’t appreciate a stranger.

I can’t put into words how much I despise that kind of quackery! Because that’s what it is.
But quackery is unfortunately standard procedure in social services. And social services even trump real doctors, meaning quackery trumps real doctors by law!!
Quackery is illegal in Denmark, except in social services where it’s an everyday phenomenon.

I think this points to the idea that knowing why an answer is correct is important.

If by knowing you mean understanding, that’s consciousness like General AI or Strong AI, way beyond ordinary AI.
Otherwise of course it knows, in the sense of having learned everything by heart, but not understanding it.

Why is it rong to forgive the one you love ?

Whoever you were unfaithful with probably hadn’t promised your boyfriend anything, so definitely it’s irrational to blame “the other guy”.
If you had agreed to be in a monogamous relationship, you broke that agreement, and for most people that’s a very serious thing.
I do not however buy into your claim that this issue is something men care about more than woman. On the contrary women are generally the ones complaining about potentially unfaithful men, and I’ve heard many women generalize that men are often unfaithful, to a degree one would think that is much more common. But statistics clearly indicate that since there are more men than women, chances are that on average, women are more frequently unfaithful than men.

it doesn’t know or understand

But that’s not what intelligence is, that’s what consciousness is.
Intelligence is not understanding shit, it’s the ability to for instance solve a problem, so a frigging calculator has a tiny degree of intelligence, but not enough for us to call it AI.
There is simply zero doubt an AI is intelligent, claiming otherwise just shows people don’t know the difference between intelligence and consciousness.

Passing an exam is a form of intelligence.
Can a good AI pass a basic exam?
YES.
Does passing an exam require consciousness?
NO.
Because an exam tests abilities of intelligence, not level of consciousness.

it can only guess at the next statistically most likely piece of information based on the data that has been fed into it. That’s not intelligence.

Except we do the exact same thing! Based on prior experience (learning) we choose what we find to be the most likely answer. And that is indeed intelligence.

Current AI does not have the reasoning abilities we have yet, but they are not completely without it, and it’s a subject that is currently worked on and improved. So current AI is actually a pretty high form of intelligence. And can sometimes out compete average humans in certain areas.

Or maybe this is Bridge, where you need to have a good partner, but trump is playing alone against 3. 🤣

Trump is not playing cards, he is playing shit on the carpet, and he thinks he is winning, because nobody else is doing it.
But all he is doing is leaving a huge stink in USA, making life worse for Americans, and keeping everybody else away.

Then they could at least state it was an accident. Instead of:

the evidence didn’t meet the threshold for criminal charges

That headline is a straw man, and the article really argues on General AI, which also has consciousness.
The current state of AI is definitely intelligent, but it’s not GAI.
Bullshit headline.

This bill is going nowhere, and Trump just said at the summit that he would honor article 5.
I know Trump often changes his mind, but the summit showed that Trump has definitely changed course for the better regarding NATO.

anti-minority

Whatever gave you that idea?

When the seas are boiling and everything else is hotter than that, I don’t think so.
If that was the case, why isn’t there life on Venus?

The Danish government said on Thursday it would strengthen protection against digital imitations of people’s identities

Good call. 👍

The earth core is hot too, if the surface gets hot everything in between gets hot too.

Yeah the original plan to keep it below 2°C is toast.

If we get runaway climate change it’s the end of ALL life on earth, not just humans. Humans will probably survive the longest, because we can create artificial means to sustain us.
Humans are already surviving from Sahara to beyond the arctic circles, I don’t think other species are capable of that, except maybe bacteria.
Of course the planet doesn’t give a shit, it’s just a big rock. But to say the earth is fine is wrong unless you don’t consider life a factor at all.

The graph shows “only” 0,5° C increase over the past decade, but it feels like way more IMO.
I live in Denmark, and we used to have winters with constant frost for about a month around January/February.
The past few years it’s been very few days with frost, and not even a month of consistent frost during nights!

I absolutely agree with the graph in that it’s become way more noticeable this past decade.
