The idea that an LLM will spontaneously use its super-intelligence to somehow develop perfect plans for building weapons of mass destruction seem greatly misplaced. Think of all of the things that are not about intelligence that go into building something like that. It is of course feasible for someone to pull it off, which we know because we already did, but all we needed for that is ordinary human intelligence, the right knowledge, oh, and also (presumably) access to kilograms of weapons-grade plutonium, among many other things.
Nobody ever really explains why normal nuclear non-proliferation efforts are insufficient to address the concerns.
I get that the fear isn't always rational but it is rather mind-bending that these types of arguments are actually used in the real world in favor of some crazy regulation. I don't even really care that much about LLMs and I find it pretty perplexing.
Look for ComfyUI tutorials on YouTube. Creating something unique is elaborate and requires developing skills no different than Photoshop or any other digital art tool.
Legal or not, Nintendo will release its hounds and drown you in court fees. Personally, I'd rather not have to deal with this legal bullshit and stress in my life.
LinkedIn is a place to upload your resume and show employers that you're a real person. You don't need to use it beyond that. You're not special or cool if you refuse to make an account.
I would probably have a LinkedIn account, but for their super annoying viral tactics. Many of my professors and co-workers have sent me LinkedIn invites, without their knowledge. LinkedIn may no longer be doing this, only because it's harder now, but in the past, their app would scrape your contacts and then blast all of them with a LinkedIn invite. They're not the only company that does/did this, but it's a detestable tactic.
It’s an interesting perspective, but the precise opposite of mine. During my short time in there all I saw were fake-looking pictures of fake-looking people, with profiles full of fake-looking (or at least embezzled) information and, more than anything else, fake texts and updates full of fake, empty statements with a bunch of fake likes and fake comments/congratulations. I never felt more like a real human being than when I shut it down.
...how would LinkedIn be able to figure out that this isn't a fake profile made by a dog?
And how is a LinkedIn URL any different from any other URL that shows my CV?
FWIW, I had an account for a couple of years and eventually deleted it (don't remember when, but probably some time between 2010 and 2015) because it added exactly zero value (actually negative value because of all the spam).
Don't know about "special or cool" (do _you_ think they're special or cool?) but it certainly tells me enough about the person to be more interested in hiring them. What they're saying is "I will not subscribe to this obvious scummy scam site, despite being pressured to do so".
> NASA pays the same price per seat in the Dragon as the Soyuz because they prefer not to fill up all the seats.
That is incorrect. There are now a maximum of 4 seats in Crew Dragon.[1]
While it's true that NASA had plans to take down 6 Astronauts in an emergency, 2 of them would have basically been strapped to cargo pallets. Not something NASA would engage in under normal circumstances.

Paying for a full-service crew launch service including ground handling for payload and crew, space suits, life support, docking, and retrieval of the crew/capsule on landing is very different than paying for kg of payload launched to orbit.
The latter has gotten significantly cheaper.
NASA's price to SpaceX for the crew missions also includes development costs of the capsule and suits because there wasn't one on the market available for NASA to use.
And above all of that, price to a customer, especially a government customer with a lot of specific requirements and paperwork, is not the same as the actual cost.
