My work right now is evaluating AI models, but outside work I don't use them at all. I'm so conditioned to finding flaws that my trust level is rock bottom.
I'm also very aware of how easy it is to mentally disengage. When everything appears correct at a glance, your mind has no reason to question it.
Aussie fruit bats (or flying foxes) are huge. I've almost walked into one at night while it was hanging from a tree and monching on the flowers. It was just as startled as me, and when those wings unfurled it just about blocked the path.
It's been happening for a while. Aged care is very expensive, and is often secured with assets. These places will take all the hoarded wealth before it can transfer to anyone who needs it.
Some would say the answer is to not outsource care of our loved ones, but how do we do that without housing or job security, in an economy where nobody has the time for it?
Hey, in a setting like Night City, beating people unconscious to spare their life practically makes you a saint.
If you really want to ease your conscience, I don't think they ever explain how non-lethal weapon mods work. You can head-cannon that your assault rifle is loaded with nanites that safely shut down enemy cyberware if you want.
I believe it's possible in Cyberpunk 2077. Blunt weapons are non-fatal, other weapons can be modified to be non-fatal, stealth is usually an option, and you can even remotely disable enemies if your hacking skill is high enough.
There are sections you can't do alone, so you might need to be proactive about neutralising enemies before your companion does.
When I worked at petrol stations, two of the top dangers I had to watch out for were:
This image has me reflexively looking for a big red Stop Pumps button.
The pocket is for snacks.
That... actually looks pretty good.
I suspected for a while now, that many of the world's problems can be explained by untreated vision issues. It's going to get so much worse.
But what if the kids who use jetpacks without helmets go on to cause more net harm? You know they would.
So technically, wishing to cancel all wishes that cause any harm can cause more harm, and thus the wish cancels itself.
Jetpacks for everyone. Cheers.
My mum was having a bunch of weird nervous system issues. I saw an article about B6 toxicity so I checked the supplement she was taking. It had something like 20x the RDI.
