The misuse of AI in image generation is just the tip of the iceberg most AI generates incorrect answers based on faulty inputs until AI knows false info from truthful it is not something I want the average user to have nor should they. Even asking an AI a question can yield vastly different answers just with a small change in the prompt. Think Facebooks echo chamber multiplied a million times currently with the information scraped from the garbage of the Internet and its doesn't understand which piece is correct and which has been made up but repeated a million times by millions of morons. I believe apple is being cautious on this and better late than getting cricified products which are clearly in beta test by even the most advanced AI leaders

I have several businesses the ones in construction where physical labour dominates you can get them to work for short periods at a cracking pace by offering days off of more money as a bonus but after 2 weeks the pace slows as physically they can't do it for long. Pacing the work is better. Its also much safer.

The IT companies give them deadlines and if they finish early or can achieve milestones by working less days or work from home all good. However here a small percentage will start to abuse it after a while and its interesting as other workers will "report" the abuse before managers notice.

The fines need to be based on revenue and non negotiable in court at least 10% maybe 20% of all company revenue over the time period the infraction was incurred. The first company forced to pay would make the rest think very fast. I would be surprised if this didn't violate DOD contract terms hiring non-US citizens

Superman used to stand for Truth Justice and the American Way. Thats been changed to Truth Justice and the Human way.

As most Humans on this planet are garbage that just is plain stupid and as for Justice what type of Justice if its Human Justice Sharia is not the type of Justice I would like superman to hold up. The American justice in the comic universe is much more preferable Why does the movie industry hate America? except when they can make dollars of it

The faster an operation is done the quicker the recovery the less blood needed for transfusion, If the surgery can be done with tiny holes even better. There are medical robots that assist surgeons now that achieve most of these goals this just takes the surgeon and his team out of the room removing more error prone components and having something that doesn't get tired, drunk. old or high or come in after a bad relationship breakup is a bonus.

I believe this will be handled like self driving cars where FSD supervised is the norm until enough km are done to prove the tech then unsupervised will be unleashed Supervised surgery robots will also help extend surgeons useful career as well

Financially having children is expensive and a responsibility The money part I found is not important but responsibility is and many people no longer want the responsibility in High income countries. The number of parents I see that have kids then simply ignore them after they are no longer useful for their social status. you only have to see how celebrities take children and make them click bait for the likes and the same applies for many high income families whoo want to imitate them. Children are a responsibility until they can fend for themselves and it is a parent's duty to help them achieve that. In todays society that is a high bar

I second this I switched to a Brother MPC 9800 series colour laser 10 years ago and its still running cartridges are cheap and get up to 3500 pages per cartridge still connects to everything iPads iPhone's Mac Windows, Linux, even their friends with android devices find it easy to connect to. I keep a spare set of cartridges for when those assignments are due and duplexing minimises paper It might go months without printing and then like a month ago printed 2000+ sheets for something the older student needed. The cost today of a similar one is half what I paid and what it would cost to replace ink cartridges 3 times in and epson or other inkjet.

What Trump is is a pragmatist who realises the west cannot save the planet by screwing their economies however they can bring manufacturing back to countries where companies are forced to do it cleanly even if its more expensive that will make the world better in the long terms. What DOGE has shown is the climate money was only lining the pockets of the uniparty so even the politicians didn't really believe what they preached

Whilst you are correct and the chart at 2023 shows China+India USA+EU Chinas Exponential CO2 production and to an extent India also mainly as they are adding a coal fired plant every week I would say that by now 2025 China has caught up and india is on a similar trajectory a few years behind that being the case the USA and EU can do absolutely nothing to stop the cause of the warming unless you want to wipe out both China and India that is the only way you will stop them from producing CO2 however the consumers in the USA and EU will just get someone else to produce their amazon crap

Big hairy gorilla I'd moderate this insightful if I was moderating I guess my thetan didn't sync for moderation BTW aren't thetans used by scientologist?

Maybe this is where something like VEO3 AI https://veo3.ai/ may be useful give it the source material have it tweak it via someone who actually likes and understands the source material the cost to produce would be a lot cheaper. VEO may not be ready yet however the results I have seen lately are impressive so I would say not long before someone does this maybe even the author of the book themselves

Funny I posted this yesterday

Jony is not Steve say what you want about People like Steve Jobs or Elon Musk but they see where the future is before most do Jobs saw the potential at each stage of each product and saw what was needed to make something work and had enough technical knowledge to know who he needed to make it happen Jony Ive is brilliant from what I have seen so far he has built what others (mainly Jobs) told him to build from the big picture they could see. Musk similar to Jobs looks at the big picture and has been picking of which parts can be built and what needs to be worked on then gets the best people for it. It is possible that Jony Ive has seen the future and a new product or he has seen a refinement of a current product.

Much of manufacturing is automated unless the human is cheap enough not to automate that being said I believe the Mac Pro factory in the USA has hardly any humans but it is the supply side that has problem USA manufacturing is hollowed out and critical parts need to be imported. In Apples case simple screws or lack thereof caused a problem https://finance.yahoo.com/news.... Musk has a similar problem that he tackles by vertical integration for instance when he found he couldn't get a toolmaker He bought one brought it up to scratch and then used them to make the Die etc for manufacturing In apple case they would need to buy a screw manufacturer and restart that part of US manufacturing. That is what Trump is trying to get US companies to do instead of piling money up in the bank increase manufacturing capacity at home which benefits everyone BTW in Musks case that toolmaker started placing orders with other toolmakers when they had too much the end result they have restarted that very important part of manufacturing https://trendsnewsline.com/202...

From the article

Elon Musk’s acquisition of Riviera Tool & Die is a significant step in reshaping the American manufacturing landscape. By focusing on domestic production, Musk not only enhances the quality and resilience of his supply chain but also supports local economies and inspires a shift toward innovation in manufacturing. As industries continue to evolve, Musk’s approach may serve as a blueprint for future entrepreneurs looking to balance quality, sustainability, and local economic support. The implications of this acquisition extend beyond Musk’s own ventures, potentially influencing the broader trajectory of American manufacturing in the years to come.
