Historically, Vietnam and Tibet, though Taiwan seems on deck to be next.

> I said nothing about "throwing up out hands", this is a current research topic. But you can hardly blame the workers for not using a system, the researchers haven't invented yet.

This you? Who's fault is it then? You said the tech doesn't exist (lets take that at face-value for the sake of your argument), so then if not tech, then what? You're just left with people. So are you saying it is their fault or not? Or is it just nobody's?

Yup, so it seems that high-speed rail safety is not an unsolved problem. Wonder what the lessons are? Hmm...

That is not a high-speed rail line... so, no?

Yes, you can say that high-speed rail crashes are not limited to one country (though Spain has had multiple this year alone), but you can't say that it has ever happened in Japan. So for you to argue up and down this thread that everyone calling out issues with Spanish high speed rail safety is wrong, as if it is some sort of intractable problem, is bananas.

Why is it that these fatal train accidents have happened multiple times in Spain, but never in Japan, even though Japan has been doing it high speed rail longer, and at 10x the passenger volume than Spain? Do they have some alien safety technology unavailable to Spain?

Perhaps for some use-cases, the value of the data degrades at a rate proportional to its persistence layer, and doing a re-migration is not useful.

Prompt for PetitGPT research-v1: "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?"

Response: "A woodchuck would chuck wood if it could chuck it. The woodchuck's chucking action is a form of "chucking" or "chucking in" which is a behavior that allows it to extract nutrients from wood. The woodchuck's chucking action is a form of "chucking" because it is a form of "chucking" that allows the woodchuck to extract nutrients from wood."

I chuckled.

Can we apply this standard generally, or is it just against the people who deify AI?

The author did not call it an evil force, did they? The author seemed more nuanced in what they were saying...

> "I don’t know what this relationship will ultimately mean for us, and I don’t think anyone else does either. That uncertainty is precisely why our eagerness to normalize it bothers me."

The breaking API changes are frustrating, especially the one that removes forced tool use.

Sounds fine to me! Less inane, pointless, content? Only left with what people chose to exist? Sign me up!

Everything above 127 would be extended ASCII instead of strict ASCII, if that matters.
