Which country are you from that you still have cheaper night rates for power? Or is that something specific to EV charging stations? Germany had this for a while with storage heaters but it got phased out a decade ago.

Thats entirely depended on the context and assumes some other safeguards exist. Outlawing alone can be utterly horrific, there are quite a few examples of child labor unions (as in working children) fighting such laws. Its no surprise seein

There is no need to build it or tell you atm. Once that does change i expect parallel construction. Once you know what behavior you want from the net, recreating that from non-copyrighted material might turn out to be a lot less difficult.

This is stemming from a conviction about where the difficulty in the creation process is at. That changes with technological advances. Automation often makes practical skills economically worthless.

That is betting LLMs wont get enough non copyrighted training material to be useful. Especially for text thats likely not the case. Pretty sure its a moot point anyway as you have no way to proof what was in the training set and what wasnt.

Its worth mentioning here that many methods of execution are quite sadistic. Shooting or hanging with a sufficient drop are quite a lot more humane then for example the chair. I am hard pressed to see that as a honest mistake.
