AWD might help you avoid getting stuck, but it does nothing to avoid getting in an accident. A cheap 4 cyl FWD with chains or winter tires would do better than a Subaru with crappy tires in icy weather.
Again, what you're saying doesn't apply to the industry as a whole. Or maybe you're just one of the folks who thinks Americans should adopt the 996 work ethic?
You don't know about gait analysis. A quick search would show you its not "squirrel shit." Lots of research papers are available from the past 10+ years about using it for surveillance, and there's even a wiki page.
He's not saying they used gait recognition, he's saying they probably used something high-tech that no one has heard of. The public has know about gait analysis, voice analysis, handwriting analysis, etc for a long time.
The "illegally trained LLMs" they're taking about are trained on copyrighted data that they didn't have permission to use, this isn't about LLMs that have been trained to do illegal things. OpenAI (chatgpt) is being sued because there is a lot of evidence that they used copyrighted content for training, like NY Times articles. OpenAI is so profitable that they'll probably see these lawsuits as a business expense and keep doing it. Most people won't sue anyway...
That has some truth for career/professional skills, but I don't think there's anything wrong with having a lot of hobbies. Most people won't achieve "true greatness" (whatever that means) in their hobbies whether they have one or hundreds, so why not just focus on doing what you enjoy?
