Huh, a lot on the 737 Max situation was due to standardisation.
Boeing didn't want the time, expense, and hassle of certifying (= standardising) a new narrow-body aeroplane, so they continued to reuse the FAA type certificate (= standardised design) of the original 737 from 1966.
This meant they had to keep, inter alia, the short landing gear, which in turn made the wings lower to the ground, which forced them to position the new big engines ahead of the CG, which forced them to add the faulty MCAS computer, which killed all those people.
Admittedly the decision to use just a single sensor on said MCAS was due to systematic, decades long corruption and emasculation of the FAA.
Just a reminder that actual adult scientists at the ACS (American Chemical Society) have calculated (for all to see) that the excess heat being trapped just over the continental USA since 1750 is about 28 500 Hiroshima bombs.
And when you here unsubstantiated rumours* that say Anthropic has been sending exchanges to say Alibaba's Qwen, will you als oconclude the same about the entire US AI industry?
1. the 2018 CLOUD Act mandates US companies — and their subsidiaries — to provide information to the US government on demand, regardless of where the data is stored
2. FISA secret courts prevent companies from even saying they where summoned, or telling anyone who or what the case was about (including canaries).
So you won't ever know if your data was handed over to the US government.
@dang: you've banned members from this forum before for messy threads merely discussing apartheid. Surely advocating for war crimes — that the US itself considers crimes — is beyond the pale?
