Ask a human to draw an orc. How do they know what an orc looks like? They read Tolkien’s books and were “inspired” Peter Jackson’s LOTR.

Unpopular opinion, but that’s how our brains work.

What about Turkish bread?

I get it - Fuck Israel, Fuck Microsoft.

But if MS says “Israel lied on their TOS and said that this AI was only for educational purposes”. You’d prefer that they violate every student’s privacy in case they were secretly working for Mossad.

No?

Ok, here’s a question for you:

Let’s say Microsoft counters with “Our terms and conditions were very clear that this software should not be used in war/genocides/holocausts”

Is that good enough? Who’s responsibility is it to check? Are vendors always supposed to keep tabs on their customers or is it a good enough excuse to say “naughty customer we told you not to do that”?

I’m not defending any actions here, but I always wonder if people want platforms that monitor and police everything or they value privacy and trust more.

Punch tree

It’s both!

Massive X data leak affects over 200 million bots.

Cause no trouble.

Honestly, if we’re taking the stance of "lets run the government like a business*,

It’s just good marketing.

It makes people in other countries that little bit more likely to buy something made in the USA, or to visit as tourists or to volunteer to help during a natural disaster.

The example you’re referring to isn’t even in the millions - it was around $70K! Ireland spent $163 Billion on Amercian services because of a good, long standing relationship between the two countries.

Contributions to global organisations is what is known as “soft power” - for example, the only time NATO article 5 has been invoked is by the USA after 9/11

And guess what - every other country stood up and came to America’s defence. In the grand scheme of things, it’s a pretty good deal to spend a few million for the billions you get back in cooperative agreements with the rest of the world.

Thanks for being honest. What is Trumps actual plan?

Dear Hitler,

KYS.

Sincerely, the good guys

Yeah, but what will impress Jodie Foster?

Tegmark’s MUH is the hypothesis that our external physical reality is a mathematical structure.[3] That is, the physical universe is not merely described by mathematics, but is mathematics — specifically, a mathematical structure.

Look, I only heard about this concept, so maybe there’s more to it, but branches of mathematics are just a set of rules that we create.

Sometimes these rules can be applied to real systems, in our reality, and that helps to describe and understand the universe.

But it’s totally possible to come up with infinite nonsensical, useless mathematical systems that have nothing to do with the universe. The existence of these doesn’t mean that we have or could rewrite reality.

Yeah, fuck them for trying

I agree with the sentiment, but this article is a click farm.

Here is all the content:

I think of the Commodore Amiga as the first psychedelic computer. Celso Martinho, though, is willing to go a step further: he thinks it was the first perfect computer.

I consider the A1000 a significant piece of home computing history. Arguably one of the most important machines of the 16-bit revolution period, considered by many to be the first multimedia computer, it marked the beginning of Commodore’s last cycle, after the huge success of the C64, in the history of personal computing.

I tried to learn coding on the Commodore Amiga and didn’t get far; my problem was I wanted to make games that looked as good as stuff like Shadow of the Beast and it got difficult quickly thanks to all the powerful parts that weren’t a Motorola 68000.

If they were really in a coma, how did they file the claim? Hah! Checkmate!
