I guess all AI writing patterns are copied from human writing. The tell is that you get patterns like that more frequently than with human writing and in odd places. It's funny if you look at the paper https://isevjournals.o

He completely defeated the comparison that it's got an eventual payout? How so? I don't think I've seen any solid argument there - just pointing out current stuff has limits which is no proof it won't improve.

I had a go at Everest and figured that. My last dead ancestor had gone from Alzheimer's which is generally a way worse way to go than a mountain accident. The risks usually quoted aren't as bad as they sound as they are mostly giv

I also think it was a lab leak for sars-cov-2. I would be convinced otherwise if they found evidence of its predecessor in animals like they did for sars-cov-1, fairly promptly once they looked. But no - nothing like that and a lot of iffy
