    You see that a lot in AI (and honestly, other discussions) where people with differing requirements are talking past each other. Some people are listening to music as an experience…

    It's replies like this that make me wonder which is more demotivating to artists. LLMs, or people screeching "it's ai" regardless of proof. It has to be absolutely demoralizing to …

    Your points are valid, but they're also on the wrong side of what I'm saying; however, you're speaking from the consuming side, I was talking from the producing side. AI is never g…

    Is the next Terry Pratchett not writing because AI exists, or because they'll just get accused of being AI? This is a little like saying no one will ever paint anymore because came…

    Yeah, and the fact that no one is doing "practice runs" on them is telling how serious any colonization effort really is. Zero chance of a successful mars city if we can't even col…

    It's just the "outline" of the controller/puck, it doesn't include internal features for the internals. You won't be building your own controller off these files (without a lot of …

    Fair, I was talking more the initial pregnancy use, but even still that further pushes my point that those examples have either never been considered perfectly safe, or have been i…

    Those aren't really great examples, considering that Arsenic and Asbestos have been known to be harmful for centuries/millennia. Thalidomide never even made it to use in the USA. F…

    No, because the Soviets have to in on faking the moon landing. They were also landing a spacecraft at the same time as the landings. To fake the moon landing you'd also have to fak…

    Despite the shock at the amount of money meta spent on their version of the metaverse, I don't think they spent nearly enough to accomplish their vision. Meta, to the detriment of …

    Good luck. To have something that a regular family could use would require remote access from the company for troubleshooting, updates, maintenance. So you get all of the downsides…
