Everything you say seems like made-up and irrelevant. In fact, an AI could write the same. There is no evidence that AI-powered writing leads to lack of creativity. AI is not responsible for the publication of documents. It is your duty as

Then let's see the unexpected stuff we can get by developing carbon reduction and cheaper transport technologies. This is the failure of lack of scientific regulation: you go head first in the wall.

What's the problem with Greenpeace? Because I'm funding their actions since 20 years now, and I wonder if I should switch to something else, like Exxon maybe. Or... I should stop giving indirectly any €€€ to Exxon and alike, and g

The point then is that they won't have to anymore. However, I also think that you learn by imitation. If you have a text assignment, and that you make a sloppy job, and get a bad grade, what did you learn? But if you do the same text a

For me this is the wrong attitude. AI is there, and more of it will come. The best you can do as a parent is to help your children to use it correctly. I'm pretty sure that using it correctly will help to improve the critical thinking,

Yes, and also panspermia doesn't explain the most interesting problem: how did life appeared at all. How it came on earth is not relevant in my opinion. Een if it was transported, it doesn't mean that life couldn't have appea

I don't understand how using an image as input to a model is a copyright infringement. If the image is freely viewable (say you can browse to it), and you just look at it, are you violating any rights? It seems that violation would o
