Neiche application like old industrial equipment. Sure 90% of it is well documented and properly sourced. Still there's always that one piece of equipment purchasing got because it was cheap with no documentation and just a safety placard from the 90s. Regardless it needs to be integrated and you bet your ass no one has ever searched that. Then you're back to basics, sometimes even BASIC.
It's because these 'so called experts' are liars, sometimes. We thought Aristotle was right, until we found out he was wrong and a total removed. We thought the same of Galileo and Newton until they were proven liars and total removed. So how do we know these vaccine scientists aren't liars and total removed. /S
Working from home is also considerably safer. The most dangerous part of most people's work day is their drive to and from work. If that time had to be covered by workplace injury insurance, management would be begging for as many people as possible to stay home just to keep insurance costs down.
Tipping my landlord, hell no! I did tip a live in superintendent at one building I lived in every Christmas. Dude lived a rough life but somehow found his way to maintaining an old building, and he was great at it. If you saw him on the street you'd assume he was homeless, but infact he kept a building housing many people running. He was very friendly, kind, and respectful. He was an exception, I'd give him a small gift, usually chocolate and a small gift card. He was a very good dude and that deserved to be acknowledged.
What is your benchmark for success? A brain chip that can augment reality? In my opinion the real potential for a brain chip is more of a technology to expand accessibility to people who can't control their bodies. Also in my opinion, no one should trust Elon Musk or anything he makes so Neural Link I don't think highly of. The potential to provide people with severe mobility challenges another means to interact with the world is something worth developing. That I can see happening in a decade or two. A general purpose brain chip, yeah a hundred years plus, if ever.
I think people underestimate how good those self-service photo booths are or that they print more than photos. It'll print whatever you tell them so as long as it can open the file.
Our environment has a lot to do with it too, like what we're born into. Billie Eilish's parents were both actors with a very limited amount of success. She's not a nepo-baby by any definition of the word but she had parents who supported her passion and a have few connections. I don't know what your situation growing up was like but I can take a guess and say that your parents said to you what my parents said to me when I said I wanted to be a rockstar. "You can certainly try, but most people who do don't get very far." They were right of course. You can cut yourself a little slack, life is hard.
Where are you talking about and comparing to what? Cause I see a lot of people dying in the streets because of mental illness or drug addiction when I take the subway to work. We don't throw them away like ancient Sparta but we definitely don't come close to providing the services they need to the things they need to begin to get off the street. Cause the solution now is put the homeless in prison and that's going just fine right? ...Right?
Maybe not today and maybe not every AI but maybe some AI in the near future will have it's data sources made explainable. There are a lot of applications where deploying AI would be an improvement over what we have. One example I can bring up is in-silico toxicology experiments. There's been a huge desire to replace as many in-vivo experiments with in-vitro or even better in-silico to minimize the number of live animals tested on. Both for ethical reasons and cost savings. AI has been proposed as a new tool to accomplish this but it's not there yet. One of the biggest challenges to overcome is making the AI models used in-silico to be explainable, because we can not regulate effectively what we can not explain. Regardless there is a profits incentive for AI developers to make at least some AI explainable. It's just not where the big money is. To which end that will apply to all AI I haven't the slightest idea. I can't imagine OpenAI would do anything to expose their data.
While I agree with your position, I can't agree with your violent rhetoric. A lot more needs to be done to combat climate change and misinformation. Taking literal pounds of flesh would change something but not the climate just us.
Basically yeah. Once the floor buckled everything it supported did too, meaning a mind boggling amount of mass started moving and there's no way to stop that much mass from falling at that point.
It says "Jet fuel doesn't melt steel beams." Which is true depending on the beam, but the steel beams in the WTC didn't need to melt to fail. They just needed to be heated up to a point their yeild strength is lower than the weight of the building above it and physics takes over from there.
C'mon I'm smarter than that, my password isn't 1234. It's 1235, what do you think I am, an idiot?
