Right, that's why speech by white Christians males should be protected, and not any of those Muslims or gay people. Now, I say this mockingly, my neighbors (yes I live in Texas) say such things with a steadfast belief. Which is really

Possibly, but it can be very difficult to conceal age or location reliability, especially as your corpus of text grows. And of course that is with just the text, when you start adding in other bits of digital information it gets even more

6x time size (diameter?) or 6 times the mass. Evidently the Earth used to be much larger in size but not mass because of large amounts of trapped hydrogen/helium. It's since leaked from the crust and been blown off into space.

Do you throw every problem at your most expensive programmer first? Or do you toss most things to your fleet of juniors and let them knock out the easy work and pass the harder problems to your senior developers. Because that's what re

As a project they are kind of fun. The problem is we see stuff like this try to get turned into actual products by people with questionable motivations and ethics. Looking at you PhotoGuard/Nightshade.

Not a priority currently . Selling services to spammers... I mean marketers is still big money and eventually someone will pick it up. If training costs ever drop, then it's one of the first things that will happen.

You know what GAN is, right? In training all you have to do is take their model as the adversary and then it's useless.
