The laws are currently the same for everyone when it comes to what you can use to train an AI with. I, as an individual, can use whatever public facing data I wish to build or fine tune AI models, same as Microsoft.

If we make copyright laws even stronger, the only one getting locked out of the game are the little guys. Microsoft, google and company can afford to pay ridiculous prices for datasets. What they don't own mainly comes from aggregators like Reddit, Getty, Instagram and Stack.

Boosting copyright laws essentially kill all legal forms of open source AI. It would force the open source scene to go underground as a pirate network and lead to the scenario you mentioned.

you can't count on the grid's energy mix improving or not getting worse as the vehicle fleet transitions to BEV.

That is a possibility but they have already corrupted hydrogen. Between the two, I will go with the one that can go either way. There's also the fact that EVs are being produced now while hydrogen car production is still a way off, so it's a stall tactic as well

Yet somehow these "fast" charging stations, which aren't as fast or convenient as regular gas stations (and still run at least partially on fossil fuels anyway), have to get built everywhere. If we can't get rid of these stations then let them be hydrogen stations.

They can also be set up anywhere and are much more convenient, I've seen quite a few in residential streets, companies can set them up in their parking lots, etc. You can't treat a compressed gas the same way, even if it's just the canisters. It willl require much more investment in our infrastructure and conversion isn't straight forward.

I think it's cool tech but in our situation and looking at our current needs, pushing for hydrogen right now is a pipe dream fueld by the oil industry.

This is mostly for the car industry though, the same doesn't necessarily hold for the industrial sector.

A big cat does describe the feeling pretty well actually.

It's hard to put into words how much I love this

Most of the hydrogen on market is made with methane.

EVs use whatever source is being given, and most of these sources are converting to renewables.

Not comparable imo.

It's also worth noting that EVs can be charged at home. Fast charging isn't necessary for most and it's silly to pretend like hydrogen doesn't need its own distribution network. It's a lot more complicated to set up a hydrogen refilling station than a fast charging one and you can't fully fill your hydrogen over night by plugging it into your wall outlet.

It's a lot of fancy words but they basically strap a tv to your face and force feed you gore while they zap your brain and make you feel like shit.

I was expecting venture capitalist pipe dreams and the usual disconnect, not full on Gitmo lol

There is a black mirror episode where a person puts an implant inside their brain that hears an echo of their brain wave activity. Once the implant essentially becomes that person, it's removed and put into a smart home device.

It's a three parter, an other bit has a criminals copy being tortured to get a confession out of it.

It's a Christmas special so it's a solid hour and a half.

Or maybe oxygen, came out in 2021

I wish they could send it into space so it can orbit the sun forever instead of burning up.

Hydrogen is definitely interesting for the future but is currently used by the oil industry to stall the transition away from gas. On top of that, almost all hydrogen making its way to market is dirty.

We can think about hydrogen and the mountains of infrastructure it needs after the oil barons are all dead.

They get a lot of bribes from the oil industry. This is about sabotage, not competition.

If we can’t find something to live for, we will find something to die for.

This one is a good one too, in the article as well.

Sentient spiders (lemmy.world)

I've just finished A Deepness in the Sky by Vernor Vinge. It was amazing and coincidentally my two last books where children of time(1 and 2) and (as to not spoil the reveal) a certain book involving spiders/crabs that live in high pressure environment.

I'm thoroughly enjoying the theme I have going on even if it was purely accidental, what would be some good recommendations involving sentient spider to pursue next?
