Hence, it is not necessary to develop separate rights for AI-generated works. This indicates that the Indian government says copyright can be granted on AI works, though it goes into note that the judiciary may not agree. Still, less cut and dry than you claim. Places outside America do exist.

I remember during my masters were got a lecture about self plagiarism and how it can be academic misconduct. Though in that particular case, it was submitting the same work to be graded multiple times. Say the same easy in two different courses.

Didn't Germany have a rash of this a while back? Politicians resigning when plagiarism was found in their Phds?

So what you're saying, is people are making illegal unauthorised copies of music and storing them in their brains? Angry RIAA noises intensifying.

And the US army had and used planes before the US airforce was created. It's not the simple existence of these assets. It's the maximising their use and development by making them the heart of the mission. While part of the Air Force, the risk is that those spy satellites and GPS are going to be viewed though the lens of 'how can these help us drop bombs and dog fight in jet fighters'.

Per what people have set in past Space Force threads, there was also some bad tension inside the Air Force. There's apparently this whole chain of command thing going on in the background, where the Air Force likes it's command offers to be former fliers (and specifically never have non pilots in command of pilots) and Space Command was just this big group of non pilots getting in the way of things.

The very post you originally replied to gave a list future non nuclear weapons, like rods from god and microwave lasers.

Did you read your own link? The The Outer Space Treaty banned *nuclear* weapons in space. As long as you don't put WMDs in space, weapons are perfectly legal.

Wouldn't happen. While Space Force was part of the air force, the answer to 'what should our priorities be' would always be 'whatever makes the people flying jets happiest'. The ability to determine and maximise optimum independent operational priorities *is* the reason to spin off Space Force, so the space assists aren't just an afterthought.

I thought this was about ants the insect, not a company. I am now very disappointed

Really not. The generative AIs actual provide something, completely unlike crypto. Cryptos only use case has long been more crypto. A far better comparison is the dotcom bubble. There's a bubble. AI is going to be overvalued. But that doesn't mean AI isn't going to be revolutionary, just as the internet turned out to be.

"Another 10k from needing fewer network engineers, but they didn't say why." Yes it does? The article tells you exactly why multiple times in fact, in multiple different places. BT is currently doing the fibre roll out across the UK. When that's complete, it will need far fewer network engineers. It will be moving from massive expansion to maintenance and incremental changes.

Well this can't be. Better dumb down all future PC releases, so they can be released on consoles too. In fact... Let's then also dump down the console releases so they can be released on mobile in turn. We'll calling the moneyfall model.

What are you on about? The UK has a large state investment in Starlink/Musk rival OneWeb. So surely the UK would go further in on that, rather than Starlink.

In the UK you can order a box of 7 free from the government website and do that up to one per day. https://www.gov.uk/order-coron...

For all of the available vaccines, not one of them has passed the level of regulatory approval that is common for even cold medications or heart burn pills. We simply do not know or understand the long-term side effects. We couldn't possibly.

But you're happy to accept the possible long term effects of covid? What level of regulatory investigation has covid gone through? How do you know it's not going to destroy your liver in 10 years time? It's very unlikely but so is such an effect from a vaccine. You're showing a blatant double standard.

In the UK 4,416,623 people have tested positive with covid compared to 34,216,087 people with (first dose) vaccinations. From just the raw numbers, we've tested the vaccine on more people than we've tested covid.
