I was wondering about that⦠I suppose at some point these LLM dudes are going to need robots on the ground to ask insightful questions at press conferences, gauge the word on the street, and find out the opinions of people whoâ(TM)ve just been killed in war zones.

On the other hand, will the common scum even be able to tell if the newspapers simply use LLMs to make up any old bollocks, instead of using flesh reporters to gather news?

Ahhhh, I remember seeing some of the news coverage back when that Clinton fella got his knob polished by Monica from Friends in their round office.

To be perfectly frank, it would be nice to only have to get outraged by simpler things like that these days. The guys there have definitely allowed their empire to degenerate a little too far :-(

This is all very interesting, but what is the point of them spending so much money and effort on something to ferry their head of state around in?

Surely if he or she got whacked off whilst on a junket, then they could simply get a new one?

Not American. At first glance, this looks like an effective method for pulling the wool over the eyes of the gormless proletariat. Presumably there would be corresponding suppression in the news with regards to unprofitable weather events.

However, will they also need to find an effective solution to prevent the common scum from discussing unprofitable weather events in public?

For example, people are definitely going to realise that somethingâ(TM)s awry when their home is destroyed. That sort of thing is hard to ignore.

Hm, I recently had to go through old insurance and pension accounts, to get some things tidied up.

They all seem to have the âoeAIâ chatbox thing now.

Every question I asked of them was met with âoecall us.â

Itâ(TM)s bizarre. It would be simpler if they just put the phone number in the place where the little âoeHi! Call-Me-Kenneth, how may I destroy all fleshy ones I mean help you today?â speech bubble pops up.

Of course, then thereâ(TM)s the robot telephone receptionist that doesnâ(TM)t understand any questions either, and simply says to wait for a fleshy one to be let out of its cageâ¦

As the title. I'm in the exact age bracket that this is talking about, and still don't really understand what a "career" is.

I've been lucky enough to at least have had a job since the mid 90s, but it's always been that: a series of jobs.

I've always been in the position where it was too risky rocking the boat by trying to jump ship. Paying mortgage for parents' home, married with kids, etc.

Pay raises have pretty much always been science fiction (in the UK, and now Japan), and from what I can tell, "promotion" is either just a change in job title, or else is a result of the CEO saying something.

And what are these benefit things? The last company had a programme for selling it's own stock to employees, and the current one's been taken over by a private equity company with an offer to "invest" in the company; where the blazes do they think that money's supposed to come from, because they already know that we've not had pay reviews for ... well, there wasn't ever one.

Still, at least I've got a job. For now :-)

Some of those positions may be affected if regular jackoffs no longer have any money to support them.
For example, there may not be so much demand for medical staff, when only the very rich can afford to go to the hospital.

Big Balls will probably go for Java's BigDecimal type.

More realistically though, they'll use floats of some sort, with the positive errors automatically routing the leftovers into super secret bank accounts, like in Superman III. All according to plan. Whatever the fuck "the plan" is.

Wait a minute, we can drink beer in Tokyo Disneyland. In fact, it's positively encouraged.
Shit, I'm hard pressed to think of a place where beer drinking is discouraged; maybe on the grounds of the Imperial Palace, not sure.
Anyway, the folks there really ought to assert their human rights more, it's just not right.

If you let muppets choose, then that's where it usually falls apart.

This is a most excellent idea. However, a method may be developed to circumcise this process by implementing "bulge recognition" software.

Or a submarine. A nuclear submarine.

You've never experienced the meaty crack of a snooker ball in a sock?

Can this be installed in a nuclear submarine and transported to the Marianas Trench?
