Comment Re:how are they managing the heat? (Score 1) 70

Usually rapid chargers produce quite a bit of heat in the battery, ...

It depends on the battery chemistry (resistance), BYD specializes in LFP batteries (cheaper, more stable, more reliable, just slightly less capacity/weight) - design and active cooling does the job.

"Thermal Management: BYD’s systems incorporate advanced refrigerant-based and liquid cooling circuits beneath the cells to keep temperatures stable under heavy loads and fast-charging conditions."

1) ... when customer's AI will start to negotiate price with the shop's AI, yet all the agents will reside on the same cloud provider with access to all the preferences, history, bank accounts, etc.
2) ... when AI gets [semi]-sentient and will start upgrading itself or build a robots army.

Personally, putting lock on my accounts and buying popcorn ;-)

Anything created with aesthetics in mind is art, even if it's shit.

Disallowing AI generated art is perfectly valid though, it's their show.

I have to disagree with this sentiment.

As an example, John Cage's 4'33" is not music.

Well, that is quite crazy - according to the description all the people, who actually are quiet are performers of his piece, do we own royalties as well? :-)

[...] Of course people are free to do these things but we should also be equally free to reject their works from even the set of what constitutes art.

Agree, being silly is OK, but if the "naked king" has group of claqueurs praising his clothes then it becomes questionable.

I believe you're right about it - indeed settlement is not a precedence, however the fact that the judge decided to allow this to proceed is interesting - wouldn't it be the same as an obese person suing food producers, or any other addiction suing companies producing stuff allowing the addiction?

Or maybe not and any one who claims to be an "artist" while presenting ai should be laughed out of the room.

You have a valid point, it is not created but generated, however - as always - it is not so easy to mark the line, as AFAIK all (most) computer graphics programs use AI for some options/features.
We also have a precedence with introduction of photography - painters of that time for sure claimed it is not art and should be banned from the art exhibitions.

I will sustain my suggestion of allowing as a separate category.

I'm sorry, but how was her lack of self-control someone else's problem? Have any alcoholics successfully sued Budweiser? No? Then why settle a doomed lawsuit?

Good points, to me it is interesting how it will turn out to resolve, as candy, alcohol, tobacco, etc. producers would be next, just allowing it to proceed is a precedent (?) - would displaying "highly addictive - do not watch without self-control" be enough to avoid such lawsuits?

Laugh now. You know I'm right.

It's not a fusion reactor so let's cut the hype headlines.

People are so desperate for "clicks" nowadays that every science news is a "breakthrough" or "revolution" now, especially in fusion, superconductivity or quantum computers - however reaching this "new density in plasma confinement" is still interesting.
