A masked burglar broke into a closed liquor store and hit the bottom shelf, where the scotch and whisky were stored. Bottles were smashed, a ceiling tile collapsed and alcohol pooled on the floor.

If Ireland's emissions are "too small to matter" then I might as well evade my taxes and eat doughnuts for lunch.

In a pilot study, A.I.was able to accurately predict the type of coda, the whale’s vocal clan and the individual whale with over 90% accuracy.
... it might be possible to use A.I. to find patterns within the vocal data and eventually translate what whales were saying to one another.

Umm.

AI has told me flat-out lies and fabricated journal references, with made-up titles, authors, volume numbers and page numbers.

Fortunately, the wrong information was unlikely to lead to deaths.

But it is a worry.
