It hardly even needs to be demonstrated, most WAIS variants are explicitly designed to contain tests for "general information acquired from culture" and knowledge of vocabulary.

It's been maintained for over 10 years by now so it shouldn't be going anywhere.
counterpoint:
The first reliably documented report of Psilocybe semilanceata intoxication involved a British family in 1799, who prepared a meal with mushrooms they had picked in London's Green Park
Sorry for the following somewhat disproportionate aggression
Searle said
I feel somewhat embarrassed to give even this answer to the systems theory because the theory seems to me so unplausible to start with. The idea is that while a person doesn’t understand Chinese, somehow the conjunction of that person and bits of paper might understand Chinese. It is not easy for me to imagine how someone who was not in the grip of an ideology would find the idea at all plausible
As I was reading this I was screaming silently: YOU invented the chinese room. It was ENTIRELY YOUR IDEA to come up with a ridiculous, unphysical, implausible thought experiment where a single human somehow does the task of millenia in the span of minutes.
And now you object that it seems implausible???
Millenia is very optimistic by the way. If you tried to simulate chatgpt with paper and a pen, it would take much, much longer than that.
AND THE PIECE OF JUNK STILL WOULDN'T EVEN GET THE CHINESE CHARACTERS RIGHT.
Author echoes my thoughts by calmly stating:
Searle simply puts the cart before the horse. Let the high speed men with paper, pencil, and rubber commence using their rulebook to carry on a conversation, whether in Chinese or any other language, and then we can discuss the metaphysical implications."
Motherfucker, Sartre has set the cart on fire and shot the horse, and you are contemplating whether to dance on the remains!
Ok, ok, maybe it metaphysically makes sense. But you're exhaustively drawing a connection between the metaphysical and the practical! Now it can't make sense!
Interrogate our intuitions with one centillion shrimp.
incoherent screeching
Saying it before something that is not disrespectful would be redundant at best and very confusing at worst.
"With all due respect, how's the weather today?"
"I'm not racist but I prefer tea over coffee."
"I'm not a pedophile but I think terminator 3 is a bad movie."
Those 3,028 people, or 0.000036% of the global population, hold more than 99% of all wealth.
The actual number is closer to 9% than 99%. This is probably some kind of mutation from "the combined wealth of billionaires is larger than the GDP of 99% of countries" where notably yearly income and wealth are not directly comparable.
Better (and true) things to say are "The global top 1% have more wealth than the bottom 95% combined" or "The richest 0.01% in the US have tripled their wealth in the last 30 years, while 90% of people have been treading water"
it's
while (true) {
let t = Date.now();
if (timeoutMap.has(t)) timeoutMap[t]();
}
of course. Clearly O(n).

They said "a single" face so probably not the strikeface.
