That’s not the problem. These machines only have so much thrust, and are only aerodynamic in one direction. Sudden high-speed lateral acceleration is very costly from an energy budget perspective. Randomly dodging…
There’s a pretty big gulf between “very quick” and “capable of dodging air bursting autocannon rounds without sacrificing forward momentum”. Incidentally, modern drone footage is actually not nearly as bad as stuff from…
“Attack drones” have been around for basically as long as civilisation itself. It’s just a recent development that they’ve been made out of metal and not meat. So we never got to this point, we’ve been at this point the…
Modern dedicated AA gun systems claim multi-km engagement ranges against small drones, and 60 degree/second slew rates. A drone capable of beating that engagement time would be better described as a guided missile, and…
You’re talking about dodging bullets or shrapnel here. Source on that a multi rotor has that level of manoeuvrability while also carrying a lethal payload and enough battery for a viable engagement range?
That’s just a restatement of your previous point. Pretend I restated my response.
Brand awareness is a Red Queen’s race. Attention is a finite resource, and ad spend mainly exists to counteract the spend of your competitors.
And? They’d be banned too.
I’m going to shock you, but you can pay for magazine-like content through the Internet right now.
In the olden days, those people wrote for things we called ‘magazines’. Without infinite free content at people’s fingertips, actually paying for curated content will likely make a comeback.
They buy ads too. It’d adversely affect their campaign budgets. (Sure, it would adversely affect their competitors’ too, but second-order effects are usually too complex for politicians to understand.)
…and nothing of value would be lost.
Vendors won’t see RoI on their ad spend and will stop buying. Simples.
Good idea. There’s an objective measure of alcohol content. All you need to do to make this analogy work is to create one for social media. Best of luck with that.
You need to stop eating fried chicken and then immediately rubbing your greasy fingers all over your disks. I have ripped over a thousand optical disks, including a lot of second-hand ones with only a handful of read…
Just another couple of years and a few more trillion, and the whole world’s semiconductor and data output and it’ll be useful. Trust me bro.
Culture is also an expression of real-world concerns and values held by those who create it. AI-vangelists will say “all art is copied” over and over again to justify generating their slop, but no matter how many times…
“Intelligence is the ability to learn.” That is a meaningful measure of intelligence that every LLM completely fails at.
Or that tractable models are just more useful than intractable ones even when the latter are more accurate.
There is a fairly effective counterpoint here that information is worthless if nobody can find it. Generating a handful of useful designs in a sea of pointless ones doesn’t count as ‘coming up with it’. Remember that a…
Force them to list an effective annual subscription fee more prominently displayed than any “purchase” price. If they can’t guarantee any level of service, the license is assumed to be valid for one day, and their game…
So in a discussion about a Korean’s view of an American’s view of Japan, you bring up China, and you’re the one complaining about propaganda?
Fire is ‘tech’, the wheel is ‘tech’. People using ‘tech’ when they mean ‘computers’ or ‘software’ needs to stop.
If you can’t explain it to a human; you can’t explain it to a bot. I’d rather have people just send messages in their native language than correct their broken English with LLMs or send machine translations. At least…
If you’re going to throw out childish insults, at least have the guts to write them in full as if your mother wasn’t watching over your shoulder.
