That's a very good point. However the median follow-up in the study was 56 with IQR 50 to 62 years, I think that reduces this issue a lot.

It’s more like you are supposed to toss 1000 times and after 500 tosses you get a lucky streak of 5 heads in a row and then decide to end experiment and conclude that coin is biased.

I think you should read the study before jumping to this conslucsion. The fact that people are not excited about incorporating AI in shitty way into some apps does not imply that people are not excited about AI.

In articles like this I’m always surprised that author did not take 5 minutes to think that well, maybe I’m living in a bubble and there’s lots of people that are actually excited about AI.

Ukraine already surrendered chunk of its territory few years ago. You think this time it will be different and Russia won't try to take Ukraine again once it rebuilds its military potential?
