How legally binding is this pledge?

Technically correct, and yet ... The context of this article is the technical challenge (which it seemed like the parent post was referencing) is in reliably generating steady, controlled stream of 13.5 nm photons to an overall 1kw of delivered energy. Or did you seriously think that this whole article is talking about somehow upping the energy of a single photon to 1kw while also remaining at a 13.5nm wavelength?

13.5 nanometer UV light. The optics they need to use to make this work have a very narrow sweet spot for the necessary wavelength.

Photons of a very specific wavelength, is an important detail.

My concerns look like prion diseases that go undetected until it's too late and millions of people are damned to die of something like CJD.

There is a reverse situation as well that I'm now curious how it works with this. Individuals who have down syndrome are almost immune to solid tumor cancers, have measurably higher rates of inflammation response, and are very susceptible to Alzheimer's.

That was my mistake, for some reason I had Europe's population in my head at 1.2 billion and I didn't bother to check before posting. The USA is 330 million the last time that I checked. My point remains the same, Europe has a multiple of the US's headcount and vaccines are sold to individuals, not GDPs. If the US is wildly more profitable, that is a single point of failure flaw in the system that needs to be addressed for everyone's benefit.

The European market is four times the size of the US in terms of headcount. Why is it that America is the only place they can turn a profit?

Of course they can take the water rights away. The government has given itself the freedom to eminent domain anything else it wants, I don't see why water would be an exception.

Beyond a traditional database? Merkle-trees donâ(TM)t need distribution, 51% attacks become infinitely worthwhile when the target is ⦠EVERYTHING.

The closest âoeAIâ comes to being useful is through a web browser using someone elseâ(TM)s servers. An âoeAIâ PC does not provide any value whatsoever.

LLMs don't search current events by default, why would anyone be surprised that they don't just automatically know about last night's events?

Radiothermal generators use plutonium 238. This is a strong alpha emitter, it is highly active with a half-life of 87 years and heats itself red hot. Plutonium 238 is not used in nuclear weapons, it seems that perhaps the author mixed up their isotopes in their rush to put a hysterical spin on the story. Plutonium 239 has a 24,000 year half-life and would be worthless in a RTG.

No. I use it to help parse horrible vendor documentation and to do syntax checking when programming. The time those two things wasted before LLMs was not adding any intelligence or value to my life.
