Can a Contract Freeze the Law on Autonomous Weapons? โ€“ Answer.AI OpenAI claims its contract with the Department of War locks in current laws on autonomous weapons. Based on the contract language OpenAI has shared, 150 years of Supreme Court precedent, and the found...

According to OpenAI, their contract with the US DoW locks in current law, "even if those laws or policies change in the future".

Our legal analysis, with Virgil Law CEO Luke Versweyveld, shows that this is almost certainly incorrect.

Tramway and Short-Term Rentals Relationship between public transport infrastructure and new Airbnb listings

Does the presence of tram/bus stops stimulate the opening of new Airbnbs? Can you prove it? We can't, but we can look at correlations at least!

I'm looking on the phone which likely doesn't do it justice - I see the captions are shown when you select a photo - the only thing I can think of is instead of putting all together as a starting page it may be good to have some text to identify the different albums upfront

I saw this yesterday in the Italian news - it was predictable (decades ago), not surprising, very sad

I actually didn't know about this scheme at all! I understand it exists in many European countries, I'm in the UK and I use my local library a lot so really happy this contributes to authors too!

Inside Antwerpโ€™s diamond district, rough stones arrive straight from the earth to be sorted and sold through brokerages like Bonas Group. The tradeโ€™s geography is split: countries like Russia and Botswana mine millions of carats, while hubs like India do most of the polishing and exporting.

You can add images and a lot of other things, it's actually very nice in the formatting options and gives you good analytics too. It's honestly a nice tool, and independent

Spero in un mondo in cui i predatori vengano puniti

non protetti

in cui le vittime vengano trattate con compassione

non denigrate

e in cui i potenti affrontino le stesse conseguenze di chiunque altro

Keep us posted on this, as a lifelong learner of languages (other than linguistics, got a passion to learn languages too) I'd be interested - I just know what works for me

Since ramping up his threats over Greenland, Donald Trump has claimed that the US has โ€œnever gotten anythingโ€ out of NATO and that its allies wouldn't show up if the US were attacked.

Across Europe, women are killed at alarming rates by those closest to them. In the EU, women are killed by family members or partners nearly twice as often as men, yet most countries reduce these deaths to anonymous statistics. In Italy, a feminist group carefully documents each femicide.

It's actually a well known, legit and pretty good Italian brand! It's a surname, they do tortellini etc, mostly. But this stuff is not on the Italian market so must be an invention for the foreign one.
