    I have serious doubts that their detection will be good enough, especially in cases where it's not 100% AI generated. The EDM and hip hop genres relies heavily on samples, and I gu…

    So don’t buy an iPhone if you don’t care about the security of your device and personal information. That would introduce a massive security hole that would negatively affect far m…

    To whom, and to what? A military threat to the continental US, sure. To US allies in the region, and to the global economy, it appears Iran is a much bigger threat than we were lea…

    Trump received 49.8% of the vote. Harris received 48.3%. Where is the bias? Outcomes that don’t match with polls do not necessarily indicate bias. For instance, if Trump had won ev…
