100% of every thousandth payment taken, vs. 3% of every single payment....

When humans have wars, it is always over land and resources. With these chimps, it is probably the same. The land is overpopulated, and there are no longer enough resources to go around. They will kill each other until the ones strong enough to survive have the land and resources and the rest are dead.

Indeed! They will never whack all the moles.

Colleges want to let in anyone who can pay whether they will eventually graduate or not, and take their money. The College Board is helping. College has become a scam like everything in the United States of Avarice.

7 Billion? That's a 20 year old figure. There are now over 8 billion. A handful live high on the hog while most are starving.

Using this AI to cheat on tests will fail. All the answers will be wrong. AI halucinations.

How could anyone view Reddit stock as a worthy investment? A place where people use ad blockers and take offense to the ads that sneak through will never buy those products. Stock in social media is a scam to rip off the gamblers at the wall street casino, nothing more.

AI breaks everything it touches. It is a shame executives in the government and private sector are so blown away by buzzwords. The word "cloud" is still wowing them like it was magic. Everything that is hosted in the cloud is slower and less reliable than when it was locally hosted by a wide margin. Once everything we search for at work is junked up with AI slop, all work will slow to a crawl, but executives who don't understand technology will blame the people. AI is just the latest boondoggle that billions will be wasted on. It is a mistake.

Like all ideas driven purely by corporate greed, this is a terrible idea. Netxgen TV is hard to pick up. My Sony TV has a tuner for it, but half of the antennas I have tried either don't get it at all, or drop the picture frequently. I frequently give up on it and just watch the ATSC 1.0 channels instead. Another problem is that several manufacturers have dropped Nextgen tuners because of licensing fees. No one wants a separate tuner box. We want to use our TV for TV. Use of Nextgen needs to remain optional.

AI breaks everything it touches.

In most juristictions I am aware of, trademark law does not stop anyone from using their own real name in business. That is why Hershey's Chocolate and Hershey's Ice Cream, not affiliated and never were, co-exist. It is the same for Snyder's of Hanover and Snyder of Berlin. They have the founder's real name, not a made up one.

Instead of an elective for the .5% who will understand it, teach computer literacy to everyone. They can't tell a mouse from a cat and will all be useless in any kind of office job as a result. We don't need any more career burger flippers.

One of the more shocking public surveys I've ever seen found that the majority of people would not pay $100 to see a live dinosaur.
Now this thread is filled with comments against this project, from "frankenstein" to "why bother".
I truly don't understand people.

Say that UFOs are alien visitors and no one bats an eye. Say they are Russian and Chinese drones and everyone loses their minds!

>If they were they would have hired someone like RMS, or Bruce Schneier, or someone else with a history in the Open Source or Privacy movements.
Good point.
