They tend to be more efficient. However central planning in China which ramped up production yet has reduced demand, means an excess supply.

So, selling to Europe or USA makes sense to offload that supply. In a capitalist, closed system, they would have ramped down production, but also wouldn’t have had the capital to ramp up production so quickly.

If they weren’t seen as a strategic asset, then Europe and USA wouldn’t care that China is subsidizing cheaper products. They dont want their car industries dead as then they are dependent on China.

Yes but thats the point. You could offer the option. This site is trying to block open standards. We can apply a fix to correct it. Would you like to Tell site to fix it/Apply fix/Leave unsafe site

Then you have all options.

Lol, you do realise that chrome does many more. They were recently discovered to allow extra access to google meet over competitors. So not just creepy, but anticompetitive.

I think a more aggressive approach would be better for sites that dont offer compatibility with Firefox.

Do a pop up that asks the user to help make chsnge. First few users to encounter the site could be asked to see if they could find the contact details to let the site know about the problem. Once that is correct, following users could be asked to message them to let them know its a problem.

Keep upping the volume with bad publicity about their website not following standards and bekgn deficient and they will change.

No, its gay. Oedicoc

Oh, certainly LLMs are here to stay. Hopefully, they become conmoditised very quickly. But also, hopefully, the bubble bursts quickly too. Shoehorning AI into everything is dogshit. Actually using it for select reasons, where it is successful, should be great.

Already we have things like customer support phone trees that try to get rid of user interaction with scripts. AI here could be great to improve them. What’s more likely is as the tech improves, more companies use AI rather than peioke for customer support, lol. Its dystopian.

The difference, of course, is the belt sander is not purporting to be able to screw fasten. Nor will it with a future update or subscription.

I’m sorry for your loss.

You can have gay kids and still grieve for the life you expected them to have. That doesn’t mean you dont love them. What matters is you support who they actually are, not who you thought they would be. But sprinkle in some disordered thinking and I can see how that could go awry.

Support is more likely to cone for AI purposes. They won’t want to be left behind with poor support on the servers that run AI.

Yes, but for the average user, if it confidently gives misinformation, then its worse than a search engine. It is removing the verification step of reading the source, seospam aside. The whole business model is on using it more, not selectively.

One thing the article leaves out is the costs of processing should go down over time. Hopefully, as power transitions,.it also becomes more sustainable. However, it starts to become a bit like uber and self driving cars. How long can they burn through other peoples money to undercut competitions until the actual plan becomes profitable.

But if any research source cannot be used without verification, is it really useful? I agree, we should verfiy crucial information but when its wrong often, but confidently so, using natural language is a barrier not a benefit.

Well, when it’s kids, who are lacking cleaning supplies due to poverty, I think it’s worth mentioning the reason rather than name calling. Part of the problem in the article as about isolation and bullying.

It sure is. Unfortunately, profits will always cone first when we have a capitalist system. Its a shame we can’t trust China to make the cheap EVs we need and not abuse their eventual market dominance.

Or is the concern for the car companies, rather than geopolitical, and the lost jobs? Those same companies that refused to innovate and produce cheap EVs despite requests.

You mean like producing so many electric cars that western countries start imposing tariffs? Or on solar panels?

Because when ghosted, some people catastrophise. If it happens a lot they start to worry about what might be wrong with them. Our brains aren’t wired for it.

So, yes, sometimes a polite lie is better than nothing. Sometimes a polite lie is better than the truth. Its not you, its me.

Closure. People lie in real life too, not just on the internet.

So sock puppets?

Ah, like on Jan 6th with the new president celevratory riot. Dont worry, the French will show you that rioting is just a normal part of the democratic process. They also had guillotines at some of theirs, historically.

Population and GDP wise, its a bigger relative sum. However, it doesn’t really cost that. It meant they could expense equipment down immediately against tax. However, the usual way is to expense it over a number of years with a depreciation scheduke. So they have a lower tax bill now to encourage investment, but they will still pay the same amount of tax overall, just delayed.

Its more that the scheme was not very successful. However, given that it effectively cost nothing except the borrowing costs on 20b, and maybe have cobtriubuted 10billion, it could be beneficial. In the context of budgetary concerns, a lower return than hoped is poor spending and policy. Framing it as a big giveaway is disingenuous though.

Yes, coming from American news media, they may be unfamiliar.
