My hometown river is the Santa Ana River, a real river in Southern California. Not necessarily the best looking river but it rivers pretty well.

Great breakdown of the album! One probably stupid question: what kind of gas would the car be adapted for if patrol was unavailable?
Being American, we messed up what we and you call gas.

Whatever the cost it will be demonstrably less than what is being paid now. And Everyone is insured automatically.
How can we justify someone not getting care or going bankrupt from care they need?
We should be looking at It backward from universal care as the starting point.

Weird how they sort of all forgot the COVID loans they didn't pay back.

Pretty straightforward. Put everyone on the fed health insurance. It pays for itself bc it all goes straight to the hospital or caregiver. That power makes it much easier to negotiate much lower costs.
If people want more care they can pay for private.
This is not new or groundbreaking.

Yeah I agree with you. It does some interesting things that properly used are extremely helpful. But it's only a tool.
The rollout has been irresponsible. My laptop does not need AI and neither does this phone.

Librarian here. People already have access to just about every library in the world since around 1992. AI does a few things well, but research is not one of them. I use a bunch of AI tools and they all make basic mistakes and hallucinate. AI does do some things well, but not research.

Have to bet on the right things. Sony pretty much gave away Kpop Demon Hunter bc they didn't trust it to make money. Someone did at some point but somewhere that fell apart

The whole sale was stupid. There's not much reason for it in the first place. Netflix was the best of 3 bad choices, and all of them would have some serious implications for the industry. There's no win here.

Must be some brutal avoiding eye contact at meetings. Or are they just staring at you straight in the eyes.

Thanks. I do watch those but I was thinking more in terms of studio consolidation. This isn't great but better than Paramount

Netflix is the best option of a bunch of bad options. Ideally it shouldn't be sold but Zaslov is going to do his thing and doesn't really care.

What's the solution then? How would students learn to use it responsibly and effectively? Where will they fit in and be competitive to the workplace w/o knowing how to use it?
AI Rollout has been irresponsible on the part of industry but how else to address it? It's not going away.
