Of course if he said he didn't know the answer is obviously he didn't know, but he's not going to say he doesn't know, he would never say he doesn't know
BECAUSE OF THE IMPLICATION

With the affordable care act, healthcare is available to everyone in America. Anyone without healthcare has chosen to not get healthcare.

What is the difference between accurately predicting and re-living/experiencing?

Content is not art.

AI "art" is just an amalgam of 1000 things we've seen 1000 times before (but now with goopy mutant hands). It's a revolutionary tool for content creation, but it doesn't come close to actual human creativity/ ingenuity. It will always be derivative.

Coupled with their left wing bias.
For example on dailyfail's comments conservatives were commenting "playing god! we're meant to die".
Pro aging trance expressed using their feeble political views.

I guess the scientists are gene-hack-men.

That's the end goal of anti aging.

To which I answer a loud NO. Here's my take on my thoughts regarding having something or somebody else doing our routine, dull, boring, daily tasks: The thing I enjoy most about life is living it - why would I want somebody or something else living my life for me?

I didn't say it's your idea.
You are still generalizing. Not everywhere in Africa people could afford it. Africa is not one country.
Of course it might be. solution for a lot of people. In Africa, there won't be a lot, even though the need is pretty high.

If it's programmed to react irrationally when exposed to things it's programmed to consider hostile, then yes.

Feels kinda unethical to give your companion animals unnaturally longer lifespan/ a form of immortality. They can’t really agree to it. People do it for themselves more than anything. There’s a point in life where you have to accept it’s time to let go of your loved ones, instead of forcing it.

Yes but science is gradual. In 50 years we went from hello world to chatgpt. Probably had the tech almost 20 years ago. Of course there's marketing but it isn't always necessary to leave that angle

Is that true if AI Art wins Art Contests? If the AI is able to “beat” real artists in a competition, one where the art is scrutinized for these things… and do it without the competition knowing… Would that not be the pinnacle? Proof that it’s able emulate what we do?
