The treatment of stakeholders have been different inside and outside of China. The assumption based on the experience so far is that inevitably overseas investors, such as US based entities, will lose out more. Chinese firms have been raisi

China has a poor social security net. The one-child policy has resulted in a couple having to provide or care for 4 parents and 8 grandparents. That's is in no way sustainable on an individual level and worse on a societal level when y

Nature is a mainstream science publication which aims for a wide audience, so relatively speaking, it is definitely more sensationalist when compared to the top journals in the respective fields. Not to disagree with your point. Just that N

Open models means that OpenAI has access to and can learn from them. If the move is to target commercial competition, then this doesn't preclude it.

I'm not OP, but it's quite obvious where the issues are. Overturning Citizens United is probably the first port of call.

Apple can install any software it wants up to the bootloader (iBoot) level on your iPhone via updates. So technically they can access your keys.

The neurological term for it is "Confabulation", which is a lot better than "Hallucination" as used in AI. Confabulation is the unintended generation of false memories. Hallucination is false perception. Clearly, the phe

I did sense a bit of sarcasm in the GP post. Not sure if you did too?

Yes, that's right, there is a system of prioritisation in the NHS and this also varies by the different NHS trusts so it depends on where you live.

This is the result of single payer or nationalised systems where private healthcare is not allowed. So in systems like the UK, you can walk into a clinic for an MRI, you just have to pay privately for that access, usually covered if you hav

In real world applications, NTP is accurate to the millisecond, while PTP is accurate to the microsecond. PTP is often used now in the Telco world as well as for broadcasting applications.

BASF is moving some production to China, but even that seems to be a bad decision now with the breakdown of trust with the authoritarian countries pushing for a multi-polar world. Germany is in bed with China in the same way it was in bed w

Bytedance absolutely has US offices. Their Mountain View office being branded Bytedance, while their LA office is TikTok. They also have office in many cities in the US like Nashville and NYC.

Are you saying that YouTube margins are lower than tiktok? Because that seems very unlikely based on estimated figures. Tiktok is still spending hundreds of millions on user acquisition. Bytedance is no closer to IPO now than 2 years ago, a

SoC vendors probably want Google to pay to support Fuchsia. If they want it to replace Linux, it has to be bottom-up, not top down.

FSD as a product is a gimmick. It is an advanced automation but nevertheless a gimmick because driving and sharing the road with humans requires capabilities that synthetic AI has not yet achieved, and there is no clear roadmap on when and
