That's why there are companies specialising in AI for physics, like Emmi AI (now part of Mistral). If BMW and Airbus go on stage to talk about how they're using it for their physics simulations, it's probably at least decent.

It's even worse, it's loot box style. Not pay to win, but pay to have the chance to win. The result will always be non-deterministic, so for some cases it can give you what you're looking for from the first time, or it can

It's also worth remembering their other views, and contrasting. Women and non-white, non-landholders didn't get a vote. Some of them owned slaves. They believed a standing army or navy were unnecessary, because a militia could j

Not at all. Iran was rewarded with progressive sanction relief and progressive unblocking of their own money that was seized decades ago, as long as they continued cooperating.

Yes, it did. Over both of those the US had, mostly, control of the skies. Hanoi had extremely heavy air defences and was left mostly alone (both because of that and because it wasn't considered a politically appropriate target).
