Can you provide some evidence that it didn’t work in Australia? Given the ban hasn’t been in place that long I’d like to see your sources about it not working.

Having looked at many PDFs that needed to be “translated” to Markdown, it feels like a strange choice - I know it’s primarily to make things easily accessible to AI, but if we’re going to train models anyway, why not train them on something

This doesn’t make any sense. We have more access to entertainment, be it comics, porn, or films, than any period in history, yet we continue to make more substantial scientific progress than any point in history.

I was about to comment something like this. Consumption from a VAT perspective doesn't increase linearly with wealth, so a more wealthy person isn't going to spend and get taxed via VAT 100x more than someone with 100x less wealth

I doubt it based solely on that there are multiple interviews including from one of the paper’s authors. Given that Veritasium is a very well known channel at this point I wouldn’t be surprised if they were contacted instead and then roughl

That’s a bit misleading, no? If you don’t produce a certain level of work you’re going to be fired.

Because I do, and if they only care about me as an economic output machine then why should I care about them? Put another way, if they aren’t matching inflation, should I reduce the work I do correspondingly?

As an employee I don’t care about the reasons that inflation exists, I care about getting the same real money over time (only counting inflation raises, not counting merit or other kinds). And citation needed about inflation raises driving

Yes I have traveled to places where I don’t speak the language, need to get an Uber at a specific place, and need to read the signs. You can get surprisingly far if you know a few words in the local language, and in your hypothetical future
