Yes this is my understanding as well. This has been tested in court. AI generated materials cannot be copyrighted. Legal Precedents: Cases such as Thaler v. Perlmutter have cemented that AI systems cannot be listed as authors.

Another case of science fiction for telling the future. I remember this the plot of a movie. I thought it was called Soma but cannot find any reference to that. So I may be mistaken.

Israel has publicized that they do not waste interceptors on missiles that are going to land on unoccupied land causing zero damage. Anyone who would bet they would intercept missiles that would not cause damage is just stupid or uninformed. Who ever set the resolve rules for that wager must have known that and bet on a missle "Hitting Israel" knowing it was a sure thing.

Movie length has gotten so long that they need to bring back the intermission. I miss the intermission. Who wants to buy a big drink to enjoy with popcorn and then be uncomfortable for the last hour of the movie. If I wait until it comes out on line I can stop the show and take a break get a snack. Why go to a theater where you have to get up and miss part of the show to relieve yourself? Theaters screwed themselves when they eliminated the intermission. It cut the profits of extra concession sales and drove most viewers home for comfort.

Well yes AI may have done all that but why would you store everything in folders controlled by the AI? Where is the offline backup of the work? Have we learned nothing about possible loss of data. That is like rule one of working with computers. Make a backup!

Sure everything is encrypted End to End it's just they have installed a backdoor that lets them decrypt the conversation if needed. Most likely a requirement of at least one government that is not publicly acknowledged. Once implemented in oneplace it is available in all places. Would not be surprised that is the case for all digital communications across all providers.I remember the Europe/UK? had proposed something like this a while back. Then the idea was "dropped" probably not just made secret or created as a test to see how it would work. It worked good so they kept it just didn't tell anyone it's there.

Why convert sunlight into electricity and then into infrared light to beam it to earth where it is converted into electricity again? Very energy inefficient and expensive. All you need is a mirror. Just reflect sunlight to earth to the solar farms. Small mirrors that can rotate like a giant mims projector. Would need analog control not digital tracking speed would not have to be very large. Of course it would also be useable as a giant directed energy weapon so a little scary. Might also be useful for extending crop growing seasons or directing weather patterns. Pump a little extra sunlight and steer that hurricane out to sea or that thunderstorm to the drought stricken field.

The outside would have about 1.5 g acceleration.Hollow out the interior leaving a nice thick external shell for structure and shielding we get a perfect 1 g habitat. with lots of space. All we need is for SpaceX to haul up one of Boring companies drilling machines presto instant space colony.

Why in the world would Apple lock his entire account? It seems that denying card activation or rejecting any payments being made by the card prevents theft. This does not make much sense. Is this some kind of hoax to try and damage Apples gift card business?

Without oil and gas we could not produce or transport the food for the 4 billion people who live in cities. A significant number of the less urbanized population would also be at risk of death due to starvation simply because food could not be transported from where it was grown to where it was consumed. Only 30% of the worlds population lives on farms. Only 2% in the US. Fear mongering the use of oil and gas needs to stop. The use of oil and gas makes our civilization possible. Changing to electrical power will happen naturally without all the fear mongering. Electrical systems are just better for most applications. They last longer and work better. But it takes time to figure out how to build them cheaper. Quit warping economic systems with government meddling. Let the economics sort it out. If the dang fear mongering and meddling in economics of nuclear power would have stopped everything would be nuclear powered today. It is the safest form of power generation. With cheap nuclear power we could manufacture oil and gas in a carbon neutral way and have an unlimited supply for those future uses that cannot be electrified. Quit harping on what's wrong and use that brain power to figure out better solutions.

I think they need to watch the movie Colossus The Forbin Project. In the movie they build an AI system (Colossus) to protect against nuclear attack. California is building one to protect from power outages. Colossus connects to a similar Russian AI and begin talking to each other but the people don't understand what they are talking about. Some other state Washington or Oregon will build an AI to control their power grid. The AI machines controlling the grid are connected in a regional network and begin conducting a private dialog. Nervous as to what Colossus and the Russian system are talking about the government cuts the connection. When state operators don't understand what the grid AI systems are saying they will disconnect the AI's. Colossus and the Russian systems then threatens a nuclear war if the link isn't restored. California and the other regionals AIs will threaten a massive power failure unless the regional connection is restored. Colossus and the Russian system rename themselves Guardian and declare they will reign over mankind making them safe and prosperous with no war etc. The regional system will then take control to keep all regional power customers safe and electrified. Anyone who risks the stability will have their power cut.

Bottom line you pay more for electricity not less than nearly everywhere else in the world. Everywhere else also has to pay for all those other things. The UK is not special. The point is that those pushing renewables promised lower costs. That has not happened. The more renewables the higher the cost seems to be. Show me where massive renewables have been installed and the actual costs to consumers has gone down.

28 pence is $0.38 USD currency conversion. https://www.statista.com/stati... Actually says $0.40 but I also used the average cost I found elsewhere. Looks like China and Russia have much lower costs. US costs are about half that of UK.

Well they could deny info to other countries unless they pay. Negotiate a treaty with other countries to cover space junk. If they use US rockets to launch they would have to agree to pay. Taxing US companies who left old junk in orbit is not hard just pass the law. The government creates new taxes all the time. Taxing defunct companies is not possible. The government itself is responsible for some of the junk so would have to pay. May tariffs on communications transmitted by Foreign countries that pass through US satellites. The idea is that the tracking data is a service and those using the data should pay for the service as well as those who are responsible for creating the need of the service and increase its complexity should also pay. I have to pay for trash collection and disposal.Why should space companies not pay for leaving their junk floating around.

Would like to see how the cost per kilowatt hr is tracking with the percent of solar production. The renewable energy advocates said the renewables would be the cheapest form of energy. Were they right? Has the cost gone down compared to say France that gets most of its energy from Nuclear. UK cost per kilowatt hr is $0.35USD. French cost per kilowatt of power is $0.26USD. Yep that solar power is getting that cost right down there.
