The imports get a nice fat refund (eventually). What about the consumers who paid more for goods? The increases in price were legal (a seller can name any price they want), but it still hurt a lot of people.

Oops, lost the leading C with caron. So the author was Capek with a caron on the C.

I was aware of that, having studied Russian many years ago. It is the source of our word "robot" from Polish. It was via a play by K. apek.

The movie was made circa thirty years before the word "robot" was even coined. It also looks more like an automata to me and they did exist at the time.

This is a mistake many people make. HR isn't there to right wrongs. It's there to stop the company being on the end of a lawsuit from an employee.

The company gets to collect data. Your data. They'll get a windfall about how these dishwashers are actually used. This will be useful for their engineering and marketing. They'll also sell your data for profit. There is no way the backend will be run indefinitely, it will be shutdown at some point. There is also no guarantee that they'll not charge for the service. I would expect charging to be introduced and then the service shut down when it's too costly to keep running.

I predict that nothing good will come of this. There will be too many false positives for human analysts to process and if the AI isn't checked, innocents will die.

I'd have thought that the volume you pass through remains constant. Assuming constant rainfall, the amount of water in this volume is also constant and you collect all of it. Thus the Sv component shouldn't change. The faster you move the less rain from above so faster is better for the Sh part.

Your printer will now use AI to optimise ink use. The image quality degrades a little but your printer will consume more than twice the amount of ink.

Such conditions are also the times that solar power excels. Given enough daytime sunlight, the excess will sustain things until late in the evening or even overnight.

Come the inevitable robot/AI revolution, cyclists will fear self driving vehicles. At least those few stupid enough to attempt to cycle in such hostile condition.

Essentially this means that there are potentially 13,560,560 disappointed users. Games that required a server to operate are pure evil. Games should run fine without servers and any server based games ought to have the server side code open sourced.

I'd like to see a long line of cars start at virtually the same time after the light goes green. This would save everyone a lot of time. Once this is achieved, we can think about more autonomy and traffic light removal.

This kind of thing is a cost for our climate failings in the past. I suspect we'll find a lot more similar interactions. Thus far, ships emitting less particulates in the North Atlantic has increased temperature. This is likely similar (but we need more data). There will be more....

I suspect that the requirement for a large radio telescope dish to be able to communicate with the probes is sufficient security.
