I think she could reasonably assume that she wouldn't be served liquid hot enough to literally melt her.

If by 'burned a little' you mean 'her labia literally melted and fused shut,' you're correct.

"You are too smart to be a cop...."

LMAO That is what they tell the ID10T's that can't be trusted with gun, badge or any responsibilty. Almost any reputable force requires a degree and advancement requires a higher degree. I am not saying a degree shows intelligence or more importantly common-sense, but I'd say your "buddies" might be more suited for the Marines.

We need a burn-down pin. When entered performs a factory reset.

They act like dynamic pricing is a new thing ? NOT..

It was the standard for almost the entire human history. There were no price tags and you haggled for a discount, so if you sucked you paid more. If the merchant thought you were a rube you paid more...

Now that Chuck is gone William Shatner "Capt. Kirk", and Clint Eastwood are the last super heroes from my childhood.
Getting old sucks....

"Corporations are people, and money is speech" comes rather forcefully to mind.

Maybe one will have a temper tantrum and generate complaints upstream, complete with accusations and fabricated evidence of the other largest users getting them blocked in order to free up bandwidth. I read somthing like that somewhere.
   

I sat my daughter down in my lap and explained how as much as I loved her Mommy, different people liked different things. That what her Mother and I had, some people had between Mommy's or Daddy's. It was awkward, uncomfortable and not very effective. Luckily she accepted it and went to talk to Mommy. I was afraid she would ask about trans or alternate pronouns...I don't have a speech for that yet...

Bottom line I can't help you explain the reality of things to your child. You should continue to do as you think is best and Ignore the slashbots...

so you are stating that the current LLM models are intelligent ?
The dictionary definition does contain a sub-clause dealing specifically with computers :

4. Computers. pertaining to the ability to do data processing locally; smart.

I don't see an LLM/AI meeting the other clauses, pertaining to good judgement, sound thought, or comprehensive understanding. AI used as a tool has some good potential uses but I ISN"T intelligent or in any way reliably self directing.
You need to check your reading comprehension...I never said AI doesn't work...I SAID IT ISN'T INTELLIGENT...
Do you seriously think the "AI" of today is going to replace humanity ?!?! Wake up and try some coffee.

Think of it as a chance to ACTUALLY parent. Explain things to your child that they WILL have to face one day instead of hiding it and pretending it doesn't exist. I suppose voting with you dollars is a decent answer, but allowing what these terrible Corps do to influence and affect your choices is silly. With holding from Evil entity #1 to support Evil entity #2 is hardly a good answer.

Methinks they are drinking their own Kool-Aid. They seem to think their chips are actually intelligent ?!!?
Keep this guy away from anything scientific please...

THIS...very much THIS. As a former DSO, we were forced to do STUPID shit by some judge sitting on his bench with his head up his arse far too often. That doesn't excuse the lazy incompetence of the Fargo PD in this case.

I should have prefaced my previous comment with
  Note : Extreme Sarcasm.
I am or have been a musician and I am sadly familiar with pico-payments.

Really, I can't understand why anyone would object to an AI using their name and work to "deepen" the relationship between fan's and authors. Too bad the only pockets "deepened" were Grammarly pockets.
Maybe if they had sent some micro$$$ to said authors it would have gone over better. Authors are used to getting fsck'd by their publishers for pennies
