The web sites in search results were always liable for defamation though. And Microsoft/Google could have been had they rewritten snippets to falsely suggest a page had defamatory information (they don’t)

Section 230 was about hosting user comments though. A company is still liable for what they publish. Microsoft, for example, can’t publish an article on Microsoft.com defaming people and cite section 230. However, they can link to defamat

I’m in the public and I used it and it was pretty shocking how quickly and confidently it asserted a false and damaging fact about a non-public figure. How would you feel about BingChat being convinced that “LinkLink’s real name” has been f

That’s just for the US though. I’m in Canada and you absolutely don’t need to prove malicious intent for a civil suit. And new Bing is being rolled out here.

As the original poster noted, energy is useful. Carbon won’t decline unless electric beats it for baseload, with batteries or somesuch. Merely being cheaper won’t do it. As long as more expensive sources are useful, and as long as solar is

Please see this chart of global co2 emissions. They have not stopped rising We have a system for adding solar energy on top of carbon emissions but not for lowering carbon usage, yet. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/

World growth is the only metric that matters. USA offshored many industries which use CO2. World carbon growth has not peaked as you can see here: https://ourworldindata.org/co2-emissions CO2 is also most analogous to an ov

That’s all well and good to say, but we currently have no system to do that. What we ought to have is a carbon tax. Then if some activity such as bitcoin or ai or driving or flying uses carbon, you pay extra. Whereas if you manage to fuel y

This may be surprising as an answer but….just stop I swore off TV for about ten years. Didn’t really miss it. Had watched a bunch before. Wanted to focus on other stuff so I cut it out. Same with video games. It doesn’t sound like listening

Wow so if I understand correctly: you’ll need to allow downloads from those phones forever, because of a small number of initial downloads? That’s quite an App Store policy

The bot makers complaining bring real value to twitter. Twitter loses if they make it so expensive that no one makes bots. Fee to stop spammers <<<<<< fee contemplated now

You’re gonna have a real hard time finding someone to take the opposite side of that bet using fiat money in any size. Crypto insiders generally know Tether is a fraud and further haven’t got the fiat liquidity to make such a bet

Problem is if you win the bet you can also expect the exchange to go bust. They’re all part of the Tether system The lack of a good way to short Tether with a reliable counterparty is a major reason why Tether has lasted as long as it has

Yes, the question is how do the websites get a return. If it’s like a featured snippet, should work great. “Here’s an answer, read more here” If the LLM Hoovers up all the knowledge and doesn’t show where it got it, then there is no incenti

Yes but it is much harder to scrape and replicate a site’s essence if the instructions are laced in a story and the essence includes the story. Merely copying the recipes in a popular cookbook would not make for a bestseller.

Oh, to be clear: I agree! Google also rewards the fluff, you can show more ads, etc But the copyright is part of the equation and it deserves a mention. Also, part of google rankings is manual quality review, familiarity, etc. if a recipe s
