Interesting that a mere 5 million samples could train ChatGPT so strongly. I see attack vectors.

I predict that like Akinator the beginning will be smart till the internet trolls feed it garbage. From there on put it will be severely flawed

What forcing function is there to make sure Trump's lawyers are actually looking over the evidence. I strongly suspect that they are being given time to look over discovery but are merely planning on throwing out another excuse when May comes by. Those excuses will likely sound like, "well we need more time, nevermind the fact that we actually had time to do the thing."

Why did it take this long?

Is this new law allowing the police to go to carrier companies and demanding to know the phone numbers of people near the riots, or is this closer to the police using your camera without your permission? I would have thought security restrictions on devices would have blocked such intrusive ability.

It depends on what you consider spying. The vast majority of devices want some form of push notification capability, which requires being connected to Microsoft/Google/Apple servers, and thus the company knows your IP address. But doing pretty much anything on the internet and you expose your IP address.

If what you mean by spying you think it is looking at what app/program you are doing, recording your keystrokes, recording what your camera sees, the vast majority of devices don't do any of this. Those are done on hacked laptops and school laptop admins that are either creepy and unchecked or overly intrusive.

Somewhere between these two extremes you would say it crosses the boundary into spying. You don't need a custom OS to stop it unless you your threshold is all the way to the push notification level.

The problem isn't the exact rate, it is their ability to pay for tax experts so they can avoid having most of their wealth taxed at all. This is why Biden wanted to beef up the IRS and sic them on billionaires. Scrutinize the cracks they slip through.

Actually, the mouse running the wheel powering the server also needed to clock out for the night.

It is for these reasons they are enacting laws distasteful to libs, like abortion restrictions, anti-LGBTQ, so as to purify their state and retain what dying power they have.

Wasn't there an attempt to have electors vote for whoever wins the popular vote. It was contingent on enough states joining forces. I forgot what it's name is, but wouldn't such a thing rely on electors being able to vote dynamically?

I strongly suspect world leaders would agree that Russia using nukes would be justified according to their nuclear plan. An internal civil war is really the best bet for regime change.

The main purpose is to hold onto the copyrights they have and thus their empire. The copyright for Moana isn't set to expire till 3065. Why would they need a refresh so soon?

Spain also tried to tell Google News to pay up for what they offered for free to people. Google simply shut it down. I haven't checked up to see if news agencies floundered, went elsewhere or thrived as the rich touted would happen.

Canada is claiming the same issues. I suspect there is a symbiotic relationship between news agencies and social media that connects eyes with publishers.

I agree with the general sentiment that Facebook users are more siloed than those heading to Google News. But paying to show a snippet just isn't feasible.
