Reply to comment by Salesopolis in eli5 is there a scientific explanation or reason for intrusive thoughts or call of the void by DapperWheel521
I used to until I got on OCD meds. It was unsettling how quiet my brain has been. I'm now baffled as to how thinking happens when I can't hear myself think anymore.

The problem could arguably be the opposite. GNU and MIT license allow you to use the content with the understanding that you just perpetuate the license in your new work. If you use an AI, you don't know whether you can copyright the outputted IP or not.

I saw this episode of Black Mirror. It doesn't end well for us.

Reply to comment by kllinzy in Development of social robots can take cues from dog-human bonds by WallStreetDoesntBet
Use case 1: Trauma cycles. Some older people don't have family in their lives because of their own self-destructive behaviors. I don't think the family owes them anything. However, they still have social needs.
Use case 2: Care giving requires sacrifice. My dad loved and cared for my grandmother as much as he could when her health declined, including legal and financial affairs, when he also had his own wife and kids and full time job. It was a demanding and exhausting situation for him. He loved his mom but still needed a break.

Reply to comment by Niliks in Ben & Jerry's owner may launch ice cream made from cow-free dairy | The potential rise of lab-grown milk could result in amazing advances in the world of ice cream by chrisdh79
Brave Robot is one of the first companies to partner with Perfect Day to incorporate yeast derived milk protein. The more dairy-based products to adopt it, the faster Perfect Day can achieve economies of scale and drive the price down.
Besides, they have limited selection and I didn't care for any of it. Maybe a well established ice creamery can really nail it.
