Wow, that is funny and instructive!

And an American helicopter would be 150k.
So, what is your point?

Oh, yes, "Swiss Rega" sends a bill. But not to the people, but to the insurance ... small but significant difference to your proposal.

AI overview:
"""
Swiss Rega (Schweizerische Rettungsflugwacht) is a private, non-profit air rescue foundation providing emergency medical assistance, mountain rescues, and patient repatriations. Founded in 1952, it operates independently of state subsidies through the financial support of millions of paying patrons.
"""
Emphasizes, mine.

Most "rescue" Operators in Europe, are either:
1) military
2) health care
3) private founded NGOs - like Swizz Rega - you picked a stupid example.

No private person ever gets a bill for anything ...

To be clear, the language would have to change if you wanted it to outlaw corporate surveillance, because the existing one applies only to government. And I suppose the new one would also have to explain "corporate" and how that's different from other kinds of organizations or surveillance by individuals.

c1) "normal countries" do not have parks like in America.
Found the dumbest idiot on the internet. You must be American, lolz.

Literally this dude has dozens, if not hundreds of people working on PowerBI for decades if you count the roots of PowerBI and he's like "look what I can do". It's a dashboard, nobody cares about your dashboards, ever. Dashboards are great for your personal use case but boring to literally every one else.

And just a few months ago he's out there claiming that it will end all software dev jobs and the best he can do with it is make a dashboard? Should have stuck to the stories about ending the world.

Now, AI advancements — and pressure on executives to show they're embracing the new technology [ ... ]

"From who?

"...PRESSURE FROM WHO, M*TH*RF*CK*R!?"

Everyone has to make their own decisions. I would discourage people from believing that SLTS kernels will be anything like secure by the end of their lifecycle. If that doesn't matter for some application, then fine. If it does matter then arguing that the SLTS kernel must be secure because recertifying is expensive is... not really an argument.

FWIW, in my day job I'm making this same point to people building cars with an expected 20-year lifespan. I think the right conclusion is "Don't use Linux". If you need long-term assurance, use something smaller, simpler, with much less attack surface. And then buy an ironclad long-term support contract for that.

The format today is:
*.md

Everything else is completely irrelevant for the modern AI driven world.

Unless you need something like Excel for what ever reason, but if you seriously need something like Excel: https://jupyter.org/

Hope that helps, cave man!

The valuable rare books are going to be old, so not terribly useful for training modern language models
Lolz, you got it completely backward.

AI companies want quality.

Does not matter if the text is cheap or expensive. However cheap in general implies low quality.

An AI trained only on rare texts, would probably be worth it's data centers weight in gold.

John Brunner called them: WASP(s).

That is an open debate if training an AI is a copyright infringement.

I read books.

Learn the stuff, memorize concepts, or even rot memorize parts of it. I use that for my work. E.g. I learned C like that.

That is most certainly not a copyright infringement. I had years where I literally read 100 books per year. Before I moved away from Germany I had a library of perhaps 3k books.

Of course, I did not memorize all of them. I have a friend who could do that. He could even tell on which page a certain subject was discussed.

Point is: I can read as many books as I want. Why should an LLM/AI not be allowed to do that?

You are right.

The movie industry is centered around having about 12 block busters a year. So two or three studios "compete" in bringing the movies into the cinemas in alternating order, so: they do not eat each others profits - by really competing.

And with the greed: they just produce the movies cheaper, instead of having more movies, more cinemas, more people going into a cinema, and: cheaper cinema experiences.

On top of that, it seems the idea that a movie should have a story: is gone.

I remember times when a good movie had two characteristics: you looked out of the window and watch a movie going on on the other side of the road, with no sound - and you could follow the story, easy. Because the cinema play was so gooood!
Or your girl friend was watching a movie in the other room, while I was "working" on my computer, and the dialogs and sound: was so gooood, you could follow the movie without watching it.

Today, you do not find a movie which has a score in one of the two baskets. And AI likely won't change that.

Prompt:
""" I need a movie idea for a block buster. Analyse the last 4 highest earning movies. Extract a sketch for a story similar to it. Generate me 6 ground breaking 30 seconds scenes. Label them with my copyright, e-mail them to 'find some investors'
"""

Sure, sometimes I watch a movie with no real story, like John Wick ... because I like a martial arts overdoze. Actually: I do not remember when I was the last time in a cinema. A ticket and 3 beer was something like $25 ... the only reason I watched the movie till the end: I had three beers ... and did not want to take them home.

It's thankless, yes. Necessary, or even a good idea? I think that's debatable. Actually LTS is probably a good idea... but I'm very skeptical of SLTS. I don't think CIP is going to be successful at keeping 10 year-old kernel versions secure. If you need 10 years, you should either plan to do the work necessary to upgrade to new kernel versions periodically or you should assume that it's just going to be insecure and isolate it or otherwise shield it from attack.
