They really want people to return to the offices so that their investment in said offices makes sense.

Employees saying "no" is what's causing them to have to choose to sell them instead.

I don't understand how this is inconsistent - if you had a car you haven't driven in two years, might you list it for sale rather than continue to pay registration/car payments on it?

Sure, but once something is acted upon their will be a change. The moon is also mostly comprised of titanium and lithium, some of the lightest elements. Sure, landing to plant a flag might not do much, but constant travel, or even strong magnetic forces required to generate power may have lasting consequences.

You can safely assume that the engineers working on this have thought of that. There are options that work on the moon. This isn't the first nuclear power plant designed to operate in a vacuum; e.g. NASA built and successfully tested one a few years ago.

Er no. That's NOT what the copyright office said.

AI generations must be excluded from registration and only human authorship will be accepted.

Given that in the US, registration is required to bring a suit to protect copyright, it won't be possible to bring any action to the courts to protect AI generations as they can't be registered.

Therefore, AI generated art can't ever be protected.
