But legally, [non-Jewish citizens of Israel] have the same rights as any other Israeli citizen, including voting rights. How does this square with the Nation-State Law, which states that the former group has precisely zero rights to "

A very sad and naive piece of writing, and chock-full of lopsided argumentation throughout. Essentially a retread of the famous "Long Boom" piece in Wired, circa 1997. Simply put: dramatic increases in automation (and other so-ca

Obviously it has nothing to do with colonialism. You're way off base on that. Just look at any of Putin's numerous (and incredibly obnoxious) pronouncements on the topic of Russia-Ukraine relations. I don't think further d

How about you answer my question first: Whose colonialism remarks ("complaints") were you referring to, specifically? Was it mine, or was it not?

The point I'm making is that there's simply no evidence to suggest that Russia is interested in colonialism. A very strange thing to say, given that war against Ukraine is an extremely blatant attempt at re-colonization (with a

Acidly insulting people who question your business model is a great way to drum up support for your business. Perhaps you can whip up a bot to do this as a service, and bundle it your other product offerings.

I haven't seen a shred of evidence that these protestors are violent, or that they harass members of campuses, as they are said to do. Then you need start reading from more diverse sources. Just in the past week, for example - there&

The doxxing campaign is deplorable and unacceptable on its own terms, of course. However the article mischaracterizes the nature at least of the petitions that some of the students signed, making it out to be more harmless and innocuous tha

I agree Ukraine never had a chance against the far superior Russian military. A very weird thing to say, given Russia's humiliating defeat (in terms of the objectives it believed it would surely and painlessly achieve) in 2022.

I was not making any claim on whether someone's behaviour is good or bad. I'm not saying you were, and you're not answering my questions either. So looks like there's no need to keep at this, and we can both move on.

Thanks. The paper describes LLM performance on a single, very narrowly prescribed task - compared with (if I am reading correctly) average humans (not trained practicioners in the field). This is of course very, very far from a validation
