I think it's good that it exist though it being own by giant corporation and the copyright issues along with it is questionable. But in terms increasing productivity it's obvious. Though everyone can generate but not everyone has an artistic mindset and be able to produce what their thinking. Artist should leverage it to increase or get inspiration for their next big thing, essentially treat it like those custom brushes but on a higher level. Imagine animators having the ability to tweak movements in between frames making it super crisp without much effort. All they will have to do now is produce key frames and describe the in between process. Graphic artist generating starting scenes which they can work further to do some concept art. No longer having to spend overtime animating a scene for an episode that is to be aired the next day. A mangaka having to draw backgrounds for their manga. This means no need to do overtime to reach a certain quality that customers demand. Though the question it replacing artist entirely at some point in the future, I don't think it will happen since people in general especially to art wants a human touch on things. Though if that time comes we might have a bigger question to answer.

Spotify wrapped started this trend seems other apps are following through. Seeing a summary of things you did with there app. Kind of gives you a hint how much other things are being tracked.

Aside from the obvious Law is there another blocker for this kind of situation?

I Imagine people would have their AI representatives trained to each individual personal beliefs and their ideal society.

What could that society look like? Or how could it work. Is there a term for this?

Do nothing that way you don't get to jail for murder. All the pressure goes to the other guy. Sue the railway company, guy who pulled the lever and the creator. Another is find a way not to reach to that point.

MANILA, Philippines — Food-to-infrastructure giant San Miguel Corp. (SMC) plans to include a bus rapid system and active transport facilities in the revised design of the controversial Pasig River Expressway (PAREX).

In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange, SMC confirmed reports it is reviving its interest in building a toll road above Pasig River, backpedaling on an earlier decision to scrap the project in deference to growing opposition.

Obvious answer is to give the kids ducklings for every visit. Pressuring kids parents to stop their kids coming over without permission. Unless they want to own duck pets.

FIRST lady Liza Araneta-Marcos' reputedly expensive public relations project — an hour-long interview with broadcaster Anthony Taberna — intended to portray her as a wife passionately protective of her husband's dignity and as a no-nonsense, down-to-earth, apolitical President's wife, has seriously backfired.

What emerged from her statements itself is an Imelda 2.0, the son's version of his father's globally famous wife who was the most powerful figure in Marcos Sr.'s 21-year rule. Perhaps the present first lady is even more powerful than her mother-in-law, as she herself disclosed in so many words — that she was responsible for surrounding her husband with his inner circle of "trusted, good men" and kicking out of Malacañang Victor Rodriguez, the most powerful official in the bureaucracy and her husband's most trusted confidante. Is it in the Marcos DNA?

Rich guy is right his not poor yet, still has the option to mug the rich guy. Perhaps steal his car, kidnap his kids for money. Then if it still does not work overthrow the government.

Apparently moths are not attracted to light they just can't get away with it. Because they use the brightest light as a way to orient themselves. It turns out this is instictive and has no way for them to get out of that state without them knocking themselves out. ln short, mothman we'll be there standing till daylight.

Here are some things I think will happen.

Nueralink first implanted to a human. Likely the first person gets killed also probably due to complications.

Increase lifespan of pig heart implants to humans.

Introduction of autonomous drones that are allowed to make decisions who to kill, I predict it's going to be tested in Ukraine.

We start to see more widespread effects of LLM in general in our society, lost of jobs, and so on.

Release of Windows 12, possibly backtracks Windows 11 decision of requiring TPM.

Seeing famous actors e.g. Robin Williams, and Bruce Willis suffering from dementia made me wonder in later stages do the people still aware of death? We all know death because we know the process we learn from or it's just that we instinctively aware of it?
