Well, in my own experience, the LLMs that summarize video meetings at work are not at all 100% accurate. The issue is if you have not participated in the call, you can't say which part is accurate and which is not. Therefore, they are

It's not possible in today's world and not be political. People who say they are apolitical are also political. Silence is also communication. Pointing out that Zed has taken money from a company that openly supports one of the bi

In neoliberal capitalism they do, though. Because companies can maximize profits without internalizing external costs (such as health care, social welfare, environmental costs).

This probably differs from country to country though. I have worked and lived in Switzerland (I know, not EU), Germany and US, and it does not feel like people don't care here in EU. In fact, in terms of people going out on the streets

That's not true. The issue with EU is that it's not really representative, and this is being critised for a long time and I hope should change in the near future. The EU parliament (the only directly elected body of the EU) does c

No, it's not what it means. It basically means "nobody is special". Whether that's true or not, is a different discussion, but that's how the saying is used.

There's a Germany saying "Auch nur mit Wasser kochen". Loosely translated, it means "they are also only cooking with water". What it means is that nobody knows shit and nobody is special.

Sure. That's a very generous interpretation. But I am quite certain OP does not mean "priviliged white dudes" as the issue with "multiculturalism". May OP can expand on what they mean exactly.

Isn't "multicultural" a euphemism for immigrants here? Or maybe I misunderstood, in which case I apologize.

Are you a female? Have you talked to females about this? I have, and what I wrote above is their point of view. I used to think like you before I had many conversations with women in my life about this very topic.
