Mostly because they already are responsible for systematizing documents that are needed to recognize us as citizens, land or car owners, etc.

Some laid back countries might allow companies to take and manage that function, but I don't think most of them would. Especially not in current landscape where people heard "you are the product" from all tech companies for the last 10 or so years.

I feel like the existence of good writing is also not impossible but not very likely, and so of course LLM can only write mediocrity, even when taught only on great writing.

(It was 2 specific species out of 200, and I hope that not mentioning which part of the plant she ingested would deter people from trying. The plant is also slightly poisonous, could weaken your kidneys. Weak kidneys no fun)

I think "every culture has a dragon" is kinda misleading.

"Every culture has a creature that got translated as a dragon" seems closer to the truth. The creatures themselves have a great variety between them.

Buying stuff from truly anonymous provider isn't possible. From a legal standpoint you basically transfer money to them for fun. Since, you know, can't enter any agreement with unknown entity.

To this day I never saw an AI write anything less than a 3Mb binary. Do you have specific examples in mind, and if so, can you share them?

Like, understandably you could wish to stop helping her. But if you took her groceries to help, you also supposed to place them down gently.

Maybe Utah or UAE would be a better fit for this.

Refreshing pages to establish connection again is semi easy for someone who made a honest mistake (and Could make them more cautious), but if someone wants to trigger web-socket disconnect all the time, it would become cumbersome.

Add something like fail2ban, and you're set enough against passing trollers, but not interesting enough to draw attention from people that like the challenge.

Then you get hella hard time because technically it's an evidence and arguing against evidence is always way harder, even if the argument is "if you squint and imagine that this guy wore a wig and painted his face, here's an expert opinion that height and figure difference could be an illusion from camera position". Court almost always defaults to evidence and experts.

Or it wasn't a burglary in your girlfriend house, but face/plate-matching algorithms screwed up.

It's hard to choose between "police give hard time to victim and victim relatives" and "police randomly decides who fit the bill and get this person sacked"

That's what collection is for.

Alternative theory: asynchronous communication.

It used to be your speech stayed with you, and if you were unprecise, or misspoke, or was caught meandering off-topic, people could just ask you and you would clarify. With exception for authors and journalists, that were explicitly taught how to write.

Now, your speech stays while you leave, so you have to construct as precise of an image as you can. If you misspoke or said something wrong, people have to engage with your speech as-is.

People can ask you to clarify online, of course. But you have to build a solid foundation, before people even start to think that they could benefit from a few clarifications.

Languages are weird like that – if you use them enough, your brain just figures some things out. After all, natural languages are easy enough for toddlers to learn.

Most of the heat doesn't go into evaporation. If it did, we wouldn't have higher temperature during the day, just more moist.

Truth is, I personally think farming evaporation is leagues more ahead of datacenters. Datacenters are more of a nuances locally, where depleting resources already don't give enough water to keep households water pressure up. Add to that a new water-hungry datacenter, and pressure in pipes drops even more.

They aren't bad on their own, but in a context where they want to share a depleting communal resource.

Edit: tl;Dr farming is worse but historically there. There is a lot of discourse around that, also, but it's a separate issue.

No, not necessary to the same one. Every body of water has a catchment area, and through the bottom parts of some lakes/rivers water sips into the earth, filling underground water levels.

Now, let's say you life on a coast with a regular winds in the ocean direction.

You basin fills with water evaporated by you, your neighbors catchments and – sometimes – ocean (wind doesn't always blow in one direction). But the large percentage of the water you evaporate goes into the ocean. Let's say 90 percent falls again on your catchment area, 10 percent falls in ocean but is regained through neighbors basins evaporation.

Now, if you increase your evaporation, you could easily drain a lot of water from your land.

Buying in bulk for a resell without testing even one product is kinda insane.

Whatever vector we choose, there always would be contradictions.

And while people also have internal conflicts, they are capable of adapting their belief system, while adjusting a vector would just give an LLM new self-contradictory classifier.

But what I see from trawling the posts made by narrators, a lot of them do mention that em-dashes are read as interruptions with sudden tonal shift, while cursive implies a non-interuptive tonal shift.

That said, apparently, most audiobook authors actually supplement their own guidance on how to read their books. I haven't found any universal guide yet.
