I don't think LLMs are useless, but I do think little SoC boxes running a single application that will vaguely improve your life with loosely defined AI features are useless.

I'm assuming that's what OP means. An Aldrin cycler is a cool idea and I'd love to see one developed some day, but I don't see how it helps unmanned missions significantly. You still need to independently launch and accelerate whatever you want to send to the same orbit for the rendezvous.

Makes sense for creature comforts (like life support and radiation shielding) for the long cruise but why bother for a robotic mission?

Oh, are these legislators planning to pass laws cracking down in wage theft, safety violations and guaranteeing a living wage with basic healthcare and retirement benefits?

No?

Then they can fuck off.

This smells like an ethics fight. Altman has been chasing monetization and releasing commercial products in a way the board doesn't feel is ethical or in line with their charter.

Microsoft would very much like to continue commercializing this and they're either going to neuter this board or take their ball and make their own ChatGPT with blackjack and hookers.

I don't think I can actually recall one either.

Maybe in a department store or mall in the 80s. It was just so deliberately bland I never noticed when it became less common.

Yes... but... this becomes one of those things that everyone should buy to be prepared but few actually do or they forget.

I keep a little crank-chargeable radio in our emergency kit but most people don't. If the cell networks go down (and they usually do in severe weather and most other big emergency situations) most people will lose all of their access to information.

USB 2 can transfer 1 gigabyte in about 20 seconds

Does this mean he intends to retire early?

Absolutely not. Senators believe they are entitled to die in office no matter what happens to them physically or mentally and don't care at all about anything that might impair their ability to represent the interests of their constituents. He might go as far as not seeking to be leader again, but he's not giving up his seat until he's dead.

OP's not asking about what the incumbent expects. Why would the party itself give voters reasons to vote against their incumbent?

The Secret Service knows Trump's whereabouts at all times. He's not going to slip away from them.

As for the others, even the ultra-wealthy's private jets are easily tracked via publicly available data.

My bet is: it’s going to depend on a case by case basis.

Almost certainly. Getty images has several exhibits in its suit against Stable Diffusion showing the Getty watermark popping up in its output as well as several images that are substantially the same as their sources. Other generative models don't produce anything all that similar to the source material, so we're probably going to wind up with lots of completely different and likely contradictory rulings on the matter before this gets anywhere near being sorted out legally.

Copyright laws are not necessarily wrong; just remove the “until author’s death plus 70 years” coverage, go back to a more reasonable “4 years since publication”, and they make much more sense.

The trouble with that line of thinking is that the laws are under no obligation to make sense. And the people who write and litigate those laws benefit from making them as complicated and irrational as they can get away with.

And as a public company, Microsoft has a lot more options to leverage their equity than a private company or individual does.
