Let's ditch all forms of IP and settle this war forever. Agreed?
This will slow down the progress but will give the atmosphere, the oceans and all the species ample time to recover. Agreed?
This will slow down the progress but will give social imbalance, political imbalance and racial imbalance enough time to adjust against concentrated wealth and power accumulation. Now agreed?

Why does it open a popup on every login page I visit and offer me an option for page summarization?

After consuming last bit of the Internet, last watt of the grid, last GB of your VRAM, now AI wants the last dollar in you pocket.

Large scale abuse is guaranteed to happen, sooner or later, on large scale for-profit platforms. Feeling glad for successfully avoiding all FB ads for last 15 years.

you just defeated the entire purpose of psychological pricing.

Ages ago, I used to buy songs from iTunes Store and burn them onto CD and later rip that CD to unencrypted 320k mp3. My 15 year old purchased music is still there on Apple account, but no worries, I have local backup of my entire iTunes collection.

Gen Alpha wouldn't know what was possible was deliberately made impossible. Gen Beta will grow up believing buying and renting are synonyms. That's how the world evolves.

"One small step for man, one giant leap for the IP management company." Intellectual property does not belong to humanity, though it should.

Laws related to environment and food items are strict in Europe, that hurt businesses in food, transport, health and manufacturing sectors. Ideally, this should help Europe over the next few centuries, but not on a small time scale. For the last few years Europe has not been strict on implementing immigration policies. U.S. cherry picks among the immigrants all the time, and that too on a very controlled year by year basis. An immigrant can be a great asset and another can be a big liability. The effect of demographic shift is visible on both smaller and long time scales.

Keeping their rhetoric aside, they know what they are doing and we know what they are doing. They want to establish the law of the jungle: might is right.

Earth is cooling too slowly, at the rate of 120 degrees per billion years at the mantle despite receiving so much radiation from the sun. No wonder the share of residual heat in emissions from father planets is high. I still don't understand why emission higher than incoming solar radiation be considered a mystery? Volcanoes do erupt even on a 4.5 billion year old Earth.

I'm on vim most of the time for things like coding and productivity (like documents, presentations using Latex). For me precision matters the most. Just that a document looks good or the code executes well is not enough. I need to be aware of what's in there and what's not to avoid harassment from edge cases which are generally more often than expected. So I'll be convinced if Microsoft can pitch Agentic OS to Boeing to write the software for their next generation of airliners and let their executives have a joy-ride in its maiden flight, of course with the Microsoft executives.

"The world is really screwed up and made much, much more unfair by the fact that we reward people and punish people for things they have no control over," Sapolsky said.

The world does't have free will either, idiot. So the reward and punishment system is in fact good.

Why should we check for irregularities now when they will eventually be discovered after a decade or so when the AI firms would have made billions, and then in another decade settle the discrimination lawsuit in the court for millions.

Exactly.

But you know already that sometimes we really don't want something that happened to come inside the frame.
