According to their pricing page ( https://www.jukedeck.com/pricing ), you can use the track free of royalty, but if you want to actually own it, you have to pay $199. But this falls kind of in a gray area. If the AI created

Would having movies and TV shows make Youtube Red appeal to you, at $9.99/mo? It's cheaper than Netflix.. But I guess that will depend on the shows they get the rights for.

Sort of, technically, no state needs more than 20 moves to be solved (but finding that optimal solution is kinda hard for humans). So while luck can play a part (i.e.: you may get a configuration that only requires three moves), it's

Yes, but what about the people in charge of those people? Once they see that some research is more profitable than others, what's stopping them from going to NASA people and demanding more profitable research? At what point does NASA l
