We've become less of both, free and safe. I don't see this helping either of those. Btw, I just learned that the Ben Franklin quote of liberty or safety is actually out of context and was concerning a specific situation in Pennsylvania. The general idea was, don't take away our freedom in the name of safety, give us the freedom and ability to make ourselves safe. I see these drones as an arms race to let the police do what they want to do without being in danger themselves. Oh, the kids? Well, sorry about that, shooting people is all the police are trained on.

There went my theory. It was a bump, and then a flat tire.
"What a nasty question!"
Well, it is nasty, I'll give you that.
"I hate Discovery."
"This isn't the Star Trek show."
"Oh... never mind."
Hey, are we going to get the original Discovery channel back? Or any of the good ones from old cable? No? Oh well...
Don't forget the mimic species that evolution selected for because they look like something else. Even the most complex video game is nothing compared to nature's complexity. I'd love to learn about geology, but look at how many variations there are in just one group of minerals. Biochemistry is the real misleading one - "I'm just a few types of atoms" Yeah, in a shitload of combinations.
The latter is a stab at the part of the law saying that sites can't encourage the use of VPNs to bypass it. To paraphrase Ben Franklin's quote (as it's often used wrong) "don't take away our freedom in the name of safety, give us the freedom and ability to make ourselves safe." And the UK took both away by trying to discourage VPN safe practices to avoid their lockdown (that doesn't work, as recent news has shown).
Pray for their job?
Should have retroed Clippy. They probably would have got a few percent bump just from nostalgia.
I took what you said as more than just implying that all YT performers were reading a script blindly. If that's all you meant, fair enough. I just expanded on the total thread overall, that internet has helped the spread and change of language in its short lifetime, and now that is spurred by lots of people using the same tool that behaves in a certain ways to create increases where they may not have normally occurred. They're termed YT "influencers" for a reason, their viewpoint and focus as well as whatever reading of a script without understanding can have a large effect quickly, and if those viewers are already exposed to the same tool and seeing the same stuff, that reinforces that evolution even more.
But again, this isn't a new thing, just far faster because of how it propagates.
Missed catching her expression when she realizes he forgot the sauce.
People using a word without paying attention to or understanding its meaning is not a new phase from LLM usage. The first thing that came to mind is the regional use of "could care less". There's plenty more, and they easily predate even the internet. I do agree that widespread use of LLMs can certainly inject word use that might be new to some people and show a spike overall, but remember that LLMs are trained on word use frequency from human writing. That and language is constantly evolving, so any stimulus is going to affect what direction it takes.
How about we just send them all to Andromeda. Fast or slow, doesn't matter.
