The problem with red-light cameras is that enforcement becomes robotic. Robots are perfect—they don’t make mistakes (at least in theory), and they don’t show leniency. If policing is done by robots, then humans are expected to be infallible

Is that an issue only because these neurons are biological (still artificial because they are lab grown)? Silicon neurons could also become more powerful and lead to the "I have no mouth and I must scream". In fact, top tech compa

Poor CEO my abs. When ChatGPT came out Microsoft was singing victory songs, and predicted Google's imminent death. 3 years later Google has one of the best models and Microsoft is still borrowing OpenAI's model. Not only that, Goo
