Yes, you thought that because the headline flat-out said so, despite it being a lie. Someone filing for a mistrial does not equate to the sentence being "quashed". They say a lie can run ten miles while the truth is still putting on its shoes, but that's pretty easy when lies are free and the...

I wonder what the EU has to say about this. If it were me, I'd refuse to let them go back to the special treatment they had before and insist on becoming full members or nothing. That means submitting to all EU laws and regulations and, I presume, abolishing the pound and adopting the euro.

Disney has definitely become like every other video game publisher whose name isn't Nintendo in that if it's not projected to make them all of the money in the world, they don't want to bother. It's damn near their approach to movies now too. TV shows are safe for now since TV shows already...

Having a moron in charge of the country who has no idea how stuff works has been a useful learning experience for those of us who also don't know how stuff works. I never thought about who provides equipment for media outlets at these sorts of events because I always assumed they either each...

I genuinely don't know how people below the Mason-Dixon Line tolerate going outside a single day between April and October, let alone do yard work. It's bad enough here in Ohio trying to find a day I can step outside without wearing a gallon of bug spray and one of those military-grade cooling...

I have no delusions that the companies behind this stuff bothered to limit training data to stuff they were legally authorized to use, at any point. Google in particular probably saw it as no different from hoovering up the entire contents of the internet to make their search engines function.

So I had a thought last night. You know what you were saying about how AI has probably been around for a lot longer than the companies making it want to admit? I realized that I can think of specific pieces of software that—unless my understanding of technology is woefully underdeveloped—pretty...

Both he and the other Republican candidate have names that sound like they were made up by an American Charles Dickens. It doesn't make this story easy to take seriously.

With the courts all refusing to do anything that might lead to his disqualification, is it safe to assume nobody is going to stop him from being illegally put on the ballot either? And winning? And governing for at least four years?

Just cancel all celebrities IMO. Nobody deserves to be that famous for the exact same reason nobody deserves to be as rich as the 1%.

"Why is it a jam inside of a corpse?" -

Let's see them try to make a "Let's go Brandon" out of this one.

I don't see them being smart enough to know better, either.

Well, there goes any chance of it ever happening now.

I mean, if you really want to bring up the question of what the worst thing a properly motivated AI with unlimited power could do, total global annihilation probably isn't even on the top ten. Anybody ever read I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream?

Even if there were strict standards—even if every government on earth made AI illegal—companies could always just lie. And they would. The appeal of having an instant "do all the work for me" button is too great for anyone who isn't in it purely for the love of the game to ignore.

I just mean strip him of his party membership so he won't even be allowed to run in their next primary even if he wants to. If only to send a message that they have standards.

Time to start a hoard of gadgets you don't need but might eventually find a use for! Join us......

I just read that South Park is changing its name to "South America" for the upcoming season, as a parody of the Gulf of America/Lake America business. That counts as a funny, right?

I wish the Democrat Party would leave him. As in officially kick him out.
