*That the AI wouldn't be capable of answering

The goal should be learning, not necessarily performance on a timed and written test. Grades really shouldn't be competitive either. We need to establish mechanisms of evaluation that determine a student's mastery of a topic without high pressure, high stakes tests. Class discussions, (hand) written essays, individual and group projects. Basically, AI is a reality now, just like we don't make calculus students do long division, autoregressive generative text is a tool you can't prevent. So, ask the student interesting questions the AI would be incapable of answering correctly. And, perhaps that's the real problem. If the AI is more knowledgeable, discerning and insightful than the instructor such that the instructor can't ask questions that challenge it, then why are they the instructor?

Anything to delay giving life saving support. Cops won't feel safe until they're literally piloting flying and dog drones with vr goggles from 1000 miles away. Even then they'll cry about the things they did.

Don't blacklist people from working. They paid for their crimes, let them live

Tesla also didn't make money on its cars. That's how new businesses oftentimes work.

I like it, but I would pay no more than $200

I was fairly opposed to AI coding based on experience, but I've found the recent models more useful. I don't really mind what tools anyone uses as long as humans genuinely review all the code. Neovim is approaching "done" as a project with some longstanding "would be nice," features. I'd love to see those actually get implemented and if AI helps give the developers more energy for it then that's ok for me.

I read the only redeeming quality of this movie is that Grogu is cute and that otherwise it could just be spliced together from the series. This is more a betrayal of their core fans in favor of the mythical 'more fans.' The story could have provided some substance and world building without alienating anyone. They chose to write by committee and probably AI, which is producing the expected result.

What in the Fallout??

There are other rare earth's that can't be replaced by sodium. Still, this will take a decade or more to industrialize.

Please catch and discipline the politicians doing insider trading in stock markets

I mean, I think the collective "Fuck this shit!" is part of changing things. People can change things by coming together against billionaires and saying "No." We don't have to give in to their vision of the future.

That's a little over-simplified. The Chinese aren't trying to compete. BYD has, and continues to lose, a metric shit-ton of money. If the Chinese would, you know attempt to compete fairly then you might be on to something but as it stands now they aren't. https://electrek.co/2024/04/12...

Personally I give people a lot of camera slack. Where I live we often have a chance to photograph wildlife, and some of those things might only give you 7, maybe 9 seconds to react. There are some animals I've seen fairly often but have yet to get a reat pic of. It sounds a lot easier than it really is .

The definition of consciousness you're using mostly describes the attributes that consciousness displays, but doesn't actually define it. Consciousness is the emergent quality of direct perception. Instead of asking "Are you conscious?" You should change the question to be "What are you conscious of?" The difference is more than semantics. I am in a room, and I feel the temperature. I do not need to be told whether or not I'm hot, cold or comfortable. I also know that you are somewhere in a room but I am not conscious of the temperature there I'm only aware that the room your in has a temperature. An AI can never be conscious because you have to tell it what the temperature is and how to react. You are conscious because you do not have to be told those things. Yes, animals are conscious of the things they perceive, and so are plants. Dogs are conscious of a world of scents you cannot perceive. Plants are conscious of the direction sunlight is coming from and move to intercept it. The last point I want to make is that there is no such a thing as general consciousness you are merely conscious of something things and not others.
