It has always struck me as odd that that there is a certain type of person who finds it impossible to believe in shades of grey. For them, you are either at one extreme or the other. For example, if you object to the right-wing...

paigea I agree. Your title made me think of my husband though. In the car, if I say I am too hot, (winter) he will turn on the air conditioner! He won't just turn the temperature down a couple degrees!

Cahaya I found an article that was written about this matter from several years back. Interestingly, the issue is whether the copyright of such works should belong to the author of the AI program or the AI itself, but not the user who uses the program.

PsalmOneCares Thanks to him for speeding up the CCP covid19 vaccine. But thanks also for allowing Americans to allow themselves the freedom and their RIGHT NOT to get the jab. Compared to the Biden door-to-door get-vaccinated covid19 vaccine campaign. That's a bit...

emptychair That is very interesting, and ethics does play its part I think too. When I was playing chess by correspondence, via the mail, we were told not to use a computer to help us to make our moves, but then we were allowed to access books, and to use strategies,...

allen0187 Always wanted to put up solar panels at home. The costs though are mighty hefty for my pockets. I still am keeping it an option and looking at a more affordable way to do it.

topffer @indexer All the old city is protected, not especially my house, but I cannot even change a door without the agreement of an architect from the State. Bad for solar panels as a roof looks to the South and would be perfect for them.

Prabhat Singh I love your enthusiasm, in terms of cutting the reliance on fossil fuels and you taking small steps from your side to do it. If I may, how much do you expect that it's gonna cut down your electricity charges by?
