AI in the computation sense can refer to any system that appears intelligent. This includes simple logic. It seems to be you that is confusing AI with Machine Learning.

I completely disagree that it is not using anything that identifies the universe. The visual language of Star Wars is very strong, and even besides the obvious storm troopers this show captured it in its' production design in a way that very few recent introductions have.

I would argue that almost any frame could be immediately identified as star wars even if you hadn't seen the show.

QR codes are a huge problem in contexts like this, because they are easy to overwrite and impossible for a human to verify the legitimacy of.

This means anyone with a sticker printer could slap a malicious QR code over the genuine one, and you won't know until you've already scanned it. This could easily take you to a clone of the restaurant's website for example, that instead steals your passwords or bank details.

I only use it when I know exactly the code I'm trying to produce, but just saving time if it can write it for me. Somewhere I saw this described as 'toil' vs. 'domain knowledge', and it definitely reduces toil even if I have to correct it. Anywhere that I wouldn't know how to correct it, I don't trust it.

The courts can only interpret the law. The wording of the law refers to 'sex' i.e. Biological sex, not gender, hence the ruling.

Only the media is talking about the 'definition of a woman'. This is not what the ruling is on.

That isn't to say that the equalities act shouldn't be changed to also include gender, I strongly believe it should and hope against hope that the Labour government will, but it is not in the supreme court's power to enact new law.

Lack of understanding of the legal system leads to a lot of misdirected anger, I'm on your side, but be angry at the right people.

You'll be a better programmer in any language if you can understand a systems language like C. No need to become an expert, just the basics of manual memory management will help you understand what other languages are hiding from you.

Don't you dare remind me how long ago 2010 was

The stories don't have to be true for the actual history of who did what and why to be interesting.

Play a different game

 

Following the budget announcement in the UK, why is the media obsessed with the predicted growth being 0.2% lower, instead of applauding the much needed investment in our public services? Does it really matter that much?
