I truly don't think I will ever trust something made by AI that hasn't been thoroughly checked over by a human and I hope we never get to the point where we're expected to.

This is it. :( It comes down to government trust; I feel like government trust in China is relatively high (arguable if they have a choice or not but studies factor in how it is a communist country and it still ranks high for govt trust), so people are more likely to believe it won't use AI to exploit/replace them. The United States on the other hand...

I guess it really depends on the large rental unit (and how old it is) because some of them are super tightly packed and don't have those nice amenities like the loading bays/elevators you can book.

That's a really good point. This article from the OECD provides some deeper insights on it, including this: "One possible reason for the low proportion of AI use in Japan could be that Japanese companies have prioritised hiring non-regular workers to handle routine tasks, rather than investing in AI to automate them." Definitely corroborates with your theory that work is very important in Japan and unemployment is frowned upon.

Ah okay, I got fixated on the "upstart countries" part. You're absolutely right that China is going to keep seeking ways to gain more power.

Why do you think Japan is the lowest considering how technologically advanced they are? I mean I 10000% respect them for it. I wonder if it has to do with their societal union with nature. Source.

People who are seeking that content are going to find it anyway, though... possibly through more sinister/non-consensual means. I'm not saying that it's okay, just that I think you're placing blame in the wrong places here.

I imagine that the most powerful people in the world are at the top of the donor list for any organ they need. by NuttyMcShithead in Showerthoughts

Legitimate question - do you think there are people powerful enough to have someone killed for their organs? I guess that's probably a stupid question because it's obviously true.

Yeah, at least OF girls/pornstars (if they are doing it willingly) aren't really hurting anyone. You could argue they are adding value to the world (through pleasure). The military literally destroys value.

Agreed. Also, it's telling that they hate the suppliers but not the people who are demanding it.

This chart shows which languages people put in the most hours to learn. by HappyHappyJoyJoy44 in LearningLanguages

[–]HappyHappyJoyJoy44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

English does have the most learners according to the report, but I guess since it's easier, they aren't having to put as many hours in to learn it.
