He does not need to liquidate. He can borrow, tax free, against his paper assets - that's what everyone in his position has been doing for years. To repay the loan, he just gets another one. A trillion dollars in paper assets can go very, very far especially if you allocate a small fraction for bribes to keep the rules of the game benefiting you. Things like buying yourself a government or two.

Comment Saving time on healthcare (Score 2) 55

I am sure saving 43 minutes a day as determined by a Linked-in post will be a great benefit to everyone's health. I hope they checked the accuracy of the AI output. Because it is not like UK will ever prosecute and convict innocent employees based on the inaccurate output of a computer system. That, would never happen, right?

Comment Not encryption - more of a combination lock (Score 1) 28

That's a cool toy - a biological combination lock where you have to add drug in a particular sequence so that parts of DNA get arranged in the right order. It will never work to protect anything, because it assumes the attacker has not knowledge of the DNA sequence of the target and the state of its transcription. That's a bold assumption considering how cheap and fast DNA and RNA sequencing is these days. Within week at most the attacker can have full understanding of the design and state of the system. From that point on you can unlock it without guessing.

Nothing in the OP relates to whether AI has human intelligence or not. The first case is who created the artwork - a human or a machine. The court decided it was the machine, although it could be argued that the art was human creation and the AI was just a fancy brush in the hands of a skilled artist. The second case was if communications on legal mater with AI are privileged. The decision was that AI is not a lawyer (duh!) so the communications are not covered by attorney-client privilege.

There is nothing in these decisions about if AI has human intelligence. I will be shocked if a judge would rule on such matter, simpli because we have no idea what human intelligence is.

Said nobody with evidence.

The evidence contradicts your racist hypothesis - the higher fractions of Muslims correlates with fewer closed pubs. Muslims in UK:

  1. England: 3,801,186 (6.7% of the population).
  2. London: Has the highest concentration, with 14.3% of Londoners identifying as Muslim.
  3. North-West: 6.6% of the population.
  4. Yorkshire and the Humber: 4.8% of the population.
  5. West Midlands: 4.2% of the population.
  6. Scotland & Wales: Both have a 2.2% Muslim population.
  7. Northern Ireland: 0.6%.

Kindly go back to your echo chamber for emotional support.
