"What way is the best way?"
For any given job, the best way is the method that uses the fewest inputs to get the desired output.

Pretty damn objective, that, and totally measurable.

Best way to end war in the middle east is clearly negotiation and take United States troops out of the region. Diplomats are always fewer inputs than soldiers.

When you make things subjective is where bias creeps in.

Thats not entirely true. To update an old ios app to be uploadable into the store is significant amount of work due to apple themselves deprecating stuff and requiring you use a newer xcode. You can't just "update the api call" and expect it to be publishable.

You can only download, put it on the device and read it as long as they decide that they and by extension you have the right to read the book.

You're just renting an access to the book with the drm. Under terms that aren't clear to you since you don't know these dates and contracts that they have with the creator and publisher.

The main reason AI is unreliable is because it isn't intelligent. While R1 subroutines have added at least some basic logic testing, logic is not fact checking, and these machines still don't know the difference between fact and fiction.

What is needed for AI adoption will be 0% hallucination rate- it has to be better than a political American conspiracy theorist.

And 2C is pretty much baked in. If we got really serious and actually started reducing emissions we might keep it to 3C, but tipping points make that unlikely.

The fact remains that something like 82% of the energy we use comes from burning fossil fuels and our entire standard of living depends on continuing to do so.
