So it’s on the same scale as buying a gun in the states.

I didn’t realise it was so dangerous.

He could have paid you $40B for that advice and still be better off.

That’s a very good question. How do you spend $80billion?

Ain’t that the tragedy!

There was a British charity, The Spastic Society. They became fairly high profile in the early 80s being involved in children’s magazine shows for fund raising. Often children with conditions would be featured. The intent was that featuring them would make the condition more relatable, but kids saw them more freaks to be mocked.

It resulted in “spastic” / “spaz” becoming school playground taunts to the extent that the charity changed it’s name to avoid the term.

There’s a few term of that kind of age which were like that. Medical terms or just plain English words that became labelled “derogatory” because of how they were used. I always felt it showed how poor the vocabulary of some people was. If they only knew the derogatory meaning they’d get offended by it’s use in all situations even if the meaning was innocent.

It absolutely is. They’re sociology problems. Observations can be made on causal factors in society, changes made, effects observed, results shared.

Have a read of the book “The Science Of Racism” for how science can give a insight into dealing with a social issue.

May the Reverend Magnus Pike be forever remembered.

…with a bit of technology just for spice.

Playing devil’s advocate: science hasn’t cracked any of those yet either.

Thatcher, but it also happened elsewhere under different names, and the New Labour response to it. And then technology outstripping the intellect of politicians.

Basically the introduction of private industry deep into government became commonplace under Thatcher. Blair didn’t roll it back, and transitioned labour into a party that also invited private money. It was a transformation spearheaded by one Peter Mandelson. You may know him from such hits as “My best friend is Epstein” and “I was a US ambassador”.

He seems to be the the introduction conduit for companies like Palantir into government.

Inference of 3D models exists. Combined with a rule deck of what the machine is capable of (i.e. so tools aren’t broken) I think you could be very close to “prompt to object” prototyping flows — if they don’t already exist.

Still might need a pair of hands to clean up.

Now, how many botched tries are people willing to to pay the material cost of, who knows?

I wouldn’t say I’m rooting for Iran, but I’m not rooting for the US either. I’m just observing a massive case of FAFO.

I don’t see how that helps the validity of race as a concept.

No he doesn’t. The redundant 1,600 are only 10% of the workforce. 16,000 total.

Certainly things can be open to abuse, and different regulatory systems have different loop holes. However I have seen examples where it’s been a good thing.

I just can’t remember which country I’m in sometimes.

Pretty sure all AI chat bots will be under 16.
