Good the perception filters are still functioning.

The problem is that even the open source models (and they're not fully open source anyway) aren't exactly trained ethically. They're still trained on stolen data, they are still consuming gargantuan quantities of water and using the same amount of power as a small city.

They are in no way harmless. The only thing that's better about them is that they don't steal your private data. The environmental issues are still there though.

If I'm going to be paying $200,000 for medical procedures then they better be replacing my liver or something. How could a pregnancy possibly cost that much money?

They probably asked 6 grand just for pulling out a splinter.

Apparently if you ask for an itemised bill (Which they have no right to refuse) they tend to lower the price because they can't actually justify the random numbers they came up with.

We'll also historically people weren't very good at keeping track of when they got pregnant so it was a bit hit and misses to when the baby would be due.

Yeah in most European countries at least half the kids survived to adulthood now. So if you have four kids at least two of them will survive and that's all you need to pull the ox

I doubt any of them have passports and probably couldn't point to the UK on an atlas, so I think you'd be relatively safe.

How's the US still a country, how do people just put up with it.

We had a 4 hour lecture on AI safety. It really could have been an email.

The French would never do that. They take an hour and a half for lunch and go to a restaurant that serves wine and a choice of cheeses.

Why are they more ready now than they were 2 years ago? Politically nothing has really changed I know Americans like to think that Trump is a big factor but he isn't, since even he is just as bullish on China as any other US president has been and it's not as if the military is left.

Yeah well we can't all be French. I'm not saying it's a good thing, but 30 minutes is standard even in Europe.

 

When you reveal a spoiler the black rectangles go away and it then renders the text in white, but on a white background (light coloured theme) The text renders is exactly the same colour as the background and so you can not see it unless you highlight the post, this renders the background of the post as light grey and there is just about enough contrast difference to now read the text.

When spoiler text is revealed it should render in the same colour as normal text. I'm not sure why it's white.

See images below for demonstration.
