I mean, if you consider tortilla chips to be edible guacamole spoons, then yes.

Because the state hasn't proven he is. The evidence we've seen so far seems pretty flimsy to me. Luigi's defense team filed a complaint that showed extremely poor chain of custody of evidence, suggesting that certain evidence isn't valid or might be a setup. The cops have been real weird about it, using the high profile of the case to self promote and make a spectacle of things in the media. I think there are reasons - aside from the presumption of innocence until guilt is proven - to think this guy isn't just a murderer.

It's the main ingredient in your dog's heartworm prevention medication as well. I'm no doctor, I'm sure there's some human application of the drug, but I've always seen it in a veterinary context.

Environmentalists long assumed the energy transition would rise or fall with political support.

Okay...

The fallout from the recent conflict in the Gulf sent oil prices soaring and reignited concerns over the vulnerability of global energy supply chains.

Okay.

This is political support. Saying "energy supply is an issue of national security and politician react to that by building renewable energy sources" undermines the thesis of this piece.

The truth is renewable energy sources are winning because they're better across a whole variety of metrics and anyone who says otherwise is in denial. The "political support" the article says we don't have is just stupid people obstructing for political profit. There's financial profit in renewables, so the capital goes there.

Your point about copyright is similar to one i keep coming back to. The data centers are already a huge cost sink, especially when you consider the rate their hardware will need to be upgraded/replaced over time. If you make them pay royalties to copyright holders whose material they constantly reproduce, pay a team of people to manage that inventory of works and authors, etc... The operating cost skyrockets. I see a regulation like this as being something of a nail in the coffin for AI. But I'm also a cynic and I don't see a fascist nation like the US siding with the little guy artists against the tech giants who paid for their election.
