Into volunteers it's not standard practise to randomly put a chip in your head.

Yeah the reason the water levels in the reservoirs are so low is because people are watering their plants too much that's definitely the problem. My 20 ft by 20 ft garden is definitely consuming all of the water.

No you don't.

You get paid some money, you don't get paid your normal salary. Is basically only an advantage if you work at McDonald's, If you're lucky your work will let you take it as holiday and still pay you themselves, but I don't think they're under any requirement to.

You assume an Antarctic research facility lacks funds?

Absolutely stupid example because that kind of assumes medical professionals have the same standard as Elon Musk.

No we don't know. We are not AI researchers after all. Nonetheless I'm more inclined to defer to experts then you. No offence, (I mean there is some offence, because this is a stupid conversation) but you have no qualifications.

There's loads of British stuff in the museum. All of Darwin's collections for one thing, plenty of artwork, lots of mediaeval and Roman finds, the famous dinosaur fossil collection, there's quite a bit of masonry in there from the Great fire of London.

Also a lot of stuff is from other countries but is on loan, such as all the Egyptian stuff.

There's a lot of unfounded stupid conspiracy theories but the thing about stupid conspiracy theories, is that they're stupid.

I love that they've concocted a conspiracy that literally only they can possibly care about.

If it were true, literally no one else would care. The average member of the public probably doesn't even know what they're talking about, has never seen them, and has no particularly strong opinions on them.

Negotiations between Athens and the British Museum began in 2021.

Ah, so it's not a secret evil Labour plot then. This critical piece of information is several paragraphs down in the article, talk about burying the lead.

Not everyone can pull off a wig.

Maybe we could install a murder mode switch.

Perhaps an algorithm where its effectiveness is inversely proportionate to your bank account.

There's always a Japanese company showing off mechs at those conventions as well. We never see them in general usage though.

The idea that a carefully curated data set may yield better results seems to be something that even the likes of Google engineers can't get their heads around.

I assume my insides are pretty much like everyone else's. I feel like if there was that much of a complication it would have been pretty obvious before the procedure started.

"Hey this guy had two heads, I'm sure the AI will work it out."

Then it saw Inner Space and invented nanobots. So you win some, you lose some.

Hey boss ready for your unnecessary heart transplant just to please some random guy on the internet?

Yeah so let's get this done I've got a meeting in 2 hours.

Outside of the US there are pretty stringent rules about what can and cannot be used in the medical profession. Typically it will take at least a decade for a drug to be approved, which is actually a problem in and of itself, but you're not concerned about that, you're concerned about technology being used before it's ready.

As for "devaluing the work of surgeons", surgeons are overworked as it is, there is nowhere near enough of them. If they don't have to do simple procedures then they are available to do the more complex surgeries that actually require skill. They'll be fine. Wealth isn't really a factor in countries where healthcare isn't profit motivated.

Yeah it's not like I refuse to drive my car because it wasn't handcrafted by a human.

It is an electrical fault on four wheels, but that's just because it's old.

They obviously don't feel comfortable with the robot doing surgery on humans just yet either which is why they're not actually suggesting doing that yet. It will have to go through years and years of certification before that's even considered.

I'm sure most surgeries will still be conducted by humans but there are situations where one of these would be extremely helpful. Any situation where a surgeon isn't currently accessible and can't quickly get there. Remote communities, Disaster relief, Arctic research facilities, Starships trapped in the Delta quadrant, War zones, Ships at sea.

Yeah but the training set of videos is probably infinitely larger, and the thing about AI is that if the training set is too small they don't really work at all. Once you get above a certain data set size they start to become competent.

After all I assume the people doing this research have already considered that. I doubt they're reading your comment right now and slapping their foreheads and going damn this random guy on the internet is right, he's so much more intelligent than us scientists.
