There's no difference between the people who have to live under the regime they're changing and the people who seek its destruction? I can't take that argument seriously, sorry.

To rephrase my question: can you really not tell the difference to democratic health between Americans doing it and foreign adversaries doing it?

Those are criteria the President has to certify are the case, not criteria that have to be the case. Zero clue how that would play out in the courts, but it wouldn't resolve in anything resembling a timely manner.

That's the opposite of problematic, that's where an LLM shines. And before you say hallucination, when was the last time you didn't click the link in a Google search result? It's user error if you don't follow up

You're going to fall behind eventually, if you continue to treat LLMs with this level of skepticism, as others won't, and the output is accurate enough that it can be useful to improve the efficiency of work in a great many situat

It's more likely that someone who holds this belief will be able to move substantially faster with an LLM, than it is that an LLM would take over this task in its entirety.

But it's not dividends, it's increased salary, so it's still not net profit, it's pre-operational profit, which nobody looks at due to the importance of paying for labor.
