Maybe remove tariffs and have more good paying jobs, then Americans will be excited about buying a new phone, new laptop, and new car.

How about in parallel to tarrifs we have federal incentives (maybe from tariff revenues) to help businesses set up and manufacture back in the US again,with US workers with good paying jobs?

Kill two birds with one stone.....

May I ask why the fuck you seem to give as much of a damn as you do on how we live our lives here in the US?

And yes if we want things we get them.....CA wanted something...BUT they apparently didn't want it enough to secure the rights and to properly guard against overspending, etc. It looks to me that the politicians in CA wanted a boondoggle to funnel money from the public coffers more than they wanted a high speed rail system.

But that latter part is just my opinion.

But again....why are you so hyperbolic about how the US does things if you're not over here and part of us?

Live your own life...we really don't give a fuck how you want to do it....just leave us alone, you know?

Keep moderating down, fuckups! Does not change that you are fuckups.

Indeed. Dark times.

Before AI I replaced my flagship Android phone once every 2 or 3 years. Now I am not sure, how can I replace my phone if I do not want AI functionality in it at all?

They are called "religion", "propaganda", "fairy tales", etc.. and they are always used to control people. The only thing that is different now is that we can automatize it. The ones that were not impressed before will continue to be not impressed.

But with about 85% of the human race being religious, there is a rich target field for manipulation. Incidentally, this corresponds nicely with about 15% of the human race being able to fact-check.

The person you answered to clearly things the LLM constructed something and had agency and insight, when in reality it just found everything in its training data and just did a bit of aggregation via correlation (not implication, LLMs cannot do implications) and then presented what it found in a seemingly polished fashion.

If you have no clue how an LLM works and are not very smart (i.e. Dunning-Kruger left-side), you can come to this invalid conclusion.

Excuse me? Are you seriously claiming an LLM is not a statistical engine? If so, you need to have your head examined, because that is the literal, mathematical truth.

Hahaha, no. It is just "clear" to you, because you have no clue how research, or risk management or securing software works.

I, on the other hand, am quite capable of identifying critical parts of a performance landscape and then look into those as a priority.

Or in other words, insightless comment is without insight...

Hell yes! It is the American Way!

Actually, he is relevant in this case.

Indeed. Small? WTF? Cannot have that! We need to take IMMEDIATE steps to make our Ozone-hole the largest and most magnificent!

No argument about that. Applies not only to governments, but to anybody that want power in order to control people (that is why most, but not all people go into politics). Hence religion, cults, company structures, even some people in groups of social media have this. It boils down to dominance in some form and it not a positive personality trait.

Now we know why they are hell bent on destroying the lives of half a million employees and their families.

You assholes have been throwing a tantrum for ten fucking years because "grab the pussy" was supposed to disqualify Trump's candidacy.

Nobody has ever been more thoroughly defeated in all of human history. It's embarrassing.
