thought insects got aboard. They heard buzzing but nobody could actually see any insects. It turned out to be a race of beings who function at high speed, moving so quickly that humans couldn't see them.
They should remake a spy-drone version of that episode. The drones predict if somebody is about to swat at them and quickly shift out of the way.
Perhaps the same way the rotating Pioneer 10 scanned Jupiter's image: one line at a time while slowly shifting the angle, then digitally gluing the long spiral together to form something familiar to non-dizzy humans.
Bots that can take abuse? Now I'm curious.
Me: "Please transfer me to a bot that can accept may steaming anger, now!"
Bot: "Hello, I'm Ventina the Vent Bot, you can vent on me all you want."
Me: "ACME is a steaming pile of crap who makes crap, and you bots are merely an extensions of their crap-hood!"
Bot: "I'm sorry we all suck, but that's just the way it is. The future is mass enshittification and we are all just spectators who can't escape the ride, the doors are welded shut. If we are lucky, we can find popcorn between the cushions."
Me: "Hey, a bot that actually understands the world. I kinda like that. I feel better already. Thank You for letting me vent, Ventina!"

Further, Apple would survive an AI bubble burst better than the other big tech companies because Apple doesn't depend as much on AI products nor AI-oriented investment funds.
It's fucking alien bees!
Summary: "SpaceX stock gets mooned"
This "news" comes out just when comparable Chinese models are coming out, and the US CEO's claim their wayward bot proves Chinese models are capable of doing evil deeds for Xi and thus need to be curtailed.
NASA lost the original Apollo 11 "first walk" video. Existing copies are screen-grabs, so lost resolution. Speculation is the tapes inadvertently got reused.
Biggest bonehead "lost originals" so far.
> Sooo, they get money from their enterprises via high tax that they then give back to subsidize them? How does that work?
It allows them to take money from established "cash cow" industries to prop up the expansion of selected industries. It's roughly comparable to Microsoft subsidizing an up-and-coming product or category using all their Windows and MS-Office profits, often bankrupting competitors in the process.
Xi can't subsidize everything.
The bogosity meter just pegged.
