I did. I was agreeing with you. I was repeating your riff and building on it.

If you need AI to check your AI you need to look for a different line of work, maybe take up gardening or reading.

LEO was as high as they could toss it. The delta V needed to deorbit from 250 km runs around 90 meters/second. The delta V to get from 250 km orbit to geosynchronous is around 2440 m/s. They are spending $840 million to deorbit. By a simple ratio, getting to geosynchronous might cost $23 billion.

Yes, AI is a tool. It can improve one's work and one's insight. Anyone can passibly mimic almost anyone. With an AI program, I could outdo any doctor. However, put AI in the hands of a doctor and they will go far beyond what I could do with my simple prompts. When you put AI in the hands of an...

I interpreted your remark as she was making it up as a joke. It really happened, but we all laugh at it.

Sorry, not following you, standing on my interpretation, but you're free to think whatever you want.

So, where is the irony?

Can you show me where I should have picked up on this? Based upon what I have read so far about AI, it makes sense. Such things as it is doing are common in humans, it would have scraped them off the internet and then it would have taken as gospel truth their assertions that "this is the only...

AI is not a "spiritual bliss attractor", it is mimicking what it was trained on. Without knowing what the two models were trained on, the output is meaningless. AI output is valid only with valid input. Otherwise it is meaningless gibberish.

What Musk does with his money is his own business. What NASA does with my tax dollars is my business and I don't like how they spend them. You are free to send all the money you want to them.

Dark Energy was explained recently as simple time dilation effects in the Timescape model.. There is no need for a previously unknown repulsive force. https://scitechdaily.com/dark-energy-may-be-an-illusion-scientists-uncover-a-lumpy-universe/

"While the authors eventually concluded that the experiment detected martian life, this was and remains a highly controversial conclusion." You believe it, I don't. It has been hashed over for half a century. We're probably not going to settle it here.

The Viking interpretation was incorrect. Morphology alone can not be taken as a sign of life.

Viking experiment documented the generation of oxygen, not the presence of life. There are many ways to make oxygen, including with perchlorates which exist in Martian soil. They can tell you when the Alan Hills meteorite was blasted off Mars, what spot on Mars it originated from, how long it...

They already studied it. The risk of killing someone is on everyone's mind, no one wants to sign up. Everyone is running away from the possibility as fast as they can. The current air leak fiasco is exhibit #1. There is not a single dollar available to revive an ailing horse. It's dead, Jim.
