You do understand the cost of what you're asking, right? Not using AI weapons is exactly the same as asking soldiers to go up against AI weapons without having AI weapons themselves. Assuming other actors around the world will not sudd

Nice soundbite. Do you have an actual suggestion too? I'd love to hear you suggestion to keep AI out of the hands of people who will certainly use it to kill. Russia, for example, is already using AI targeting (Ukraine too but "wi

I wonder if you mean UK or Germany (Reform or AfD, both are sponsored by extremely suspicious actors ... and Russia). But in either case you funded an adversary that wanted to attack you with oil money, Russia, to the tune of 20 billion eur

Yeah I'm hoping AI can bring us back to software engineering of 20 years ago. Where studying the solution to a problem, finding clever solutions, getting everything to work without getting buried in little concerns is really important

I meant Iran that taking over the aggression starts at the stalemate. Yes Iraq attacked first, but Iran was the aggressor for 8 to 9 out of 10 years of the war. Iraq even gave as a reason that they were sure Iran was going to attack soon an

Iran's current government started killing people to maintain power HOURS after they got to power. They have continued killing, constantly, people in their power, for about 55 years now. Including in january, and they're still kill

Just so it's clear that you're trying to cause confusion: these are light water reactors that cannot in any way shape or form be used to make bombs. Slightly harder to design and build. Much cheaper to run. Excellent for power. Ba

The issue is many kinds of solutions exist, but aren't common in different fields. On a guitar string, waves are 1d waves in a 1d world. In water everyone knows only standard waves. Which are 1d solitons in a 2d "world". In t

Well, this is a negative result. Yep, Maths explains turbulence (when things go turbulent, stuff heats up instead of cooperating). If the result went the other way, it would have had much bigger implications, at the very least we would have
