<p>AI takes XYZ data to set N range, it never created anything new but took all and created a baseline, which is at many tasks very good.<p>It cannot really create anything new and never seen, which most people will never do either.<p>So if we push away even more onto AI, I am afraid MANY(not all) that would previously gone through the discovery path won't stumble onto their next innovation, since they simply prompted a good baseline for ABC task, because we are lazy.</p>

<p>Seeing the >20% stock increase by just mentioning the "Replacing workers for AI", makes me wonder if there isn't a huge pressure from the shareholders to get on the trend no matter what. Short-term baby, rules the world.<p>But will be interesting how the company is in 2 years, if quality falls and innovation stalls, or if it is as you say that they hit their ceiling and is already in "maintenance mode".</p>

<p>Denmark was literally the US lapdog for such a long time, open to provide access and info. Denmark was the first to follow US into Iraq, while the rest of Scandinavia was much more skeptical.<p>Guess just bad luck with Greenland turning them the complete opposite direction, since I was certain that Denmark would be the one of the last to go against US in any way.</p>

<p>Might be to hinder large companies of moving fast-fashion storages into EU, so they cannot circumvent the 150EUR free import limit when it is dissolved, as that would move them into the supposed jaws of this "ban of destruction of fast-fashion" act.</p>

<p>This standstill mostly started happening when the capitalism took hold too deep and wide, look at Sweden and its golden age that lasted until all the restrictions on capitalism were silently removed.<p>While capitalism is a good model, it needs to be kept balanced, restricted..<p>Shareholder primacy is ruining everything, too much influence in politics from too many external sources.</p>

<p>It's not that you forget, it's more that it gets archived.<p>If you moved back to a country you hadn't lived or spoken its language in for 10 years, you would find yourself that you don't have to relearn it, and it would come back quickly.<p>Also information is supposedly almost infinite, as with increased efficiency as you learn, it makes volume limits redundant.</p>

<p>You got it backwards, it would be more beneficial in areas with few hours of sun for darker skin folks, since they do not absorb as much Vitamin D as fair skin folk do.</p>

<p>If not for EU there would already be multiple states with privacy invasive systems seen in UK.. We are close of getting there and they keep on trying, but so far the blocking states are enough as majority.<p>Sure EU has some fkn horrible sides to it, such as the anonymous vote to get big stuff through when a majority should be enough as democracy depicts, but currently 2 states out of all EU states can block the big decisions...</p>

<p>And how would you know what they base their hiring upon? You would just get a generic automated response..<p>You would not be privy to their internal processes, and thusfar not be able to prove wrong doing. You would just have to hope for a new Snowden and that the found wrongdoings would actually be punished this time.</p>

<p>Problem is that failing to communicate will lead to huge productivity holes, so to "fix it", either the natives need to learn a non native language or the incoming immigrants need to learn the native language..<p>So, attracting the international workforce to come Germany vs being able to fully utilise them are completely different ballparks..</p>

<p>They built upon a French product, every change in the French product was adopted by a copycat (app by tiktok creator).<p>Every attempt to ban the copycat app on Google store by the French was useless, since a new copycat app would pop up the next second.<p>So it's not like tiktok is some new innovation. What they did is still amazing, but malevolent, but credit where credit is due.</p>
