Ok, now I have read several of your replies in this thread that are basically all arguing the same thing, so, I'm basically replying to more than just this one post.
When you say "the entire population", you mean the entire population of the country "USA", right? Because as someone from another continent, it seems like there is a very specific set of opinions that you want included.
You use terms like "the other side" of the political discourse, which to me, reduces the set of opinion to two specific sets of opinions, namely the two sets represented by the two major parties in the american two party system.
As someone from "the outside", this seems like a very narrow view of reality, even if you managed to get your "unbiased AI", that represents both major american political parties, it will still seem like a very narrow and biased AI to someone from the outside of that.
Also, what exactly is the goal of a conversational AI? is it just to make a conversation with it seem like a conversation with an average american? If so, why would anyone want that? Wouldn't it be of more value to have an AI that could tell me what people with knowledge of a subject thinks of it, rather than what random people think?
Not op, but I think it means that the cooling system contains a gas that if released (it would normally not be released at all), it would do the same amount of harm to the environment as you would normally do in a year.
(I have no idea if this comparison is accurate, but I do know that coolers commonly contain gasses that you don't want to release)
I also didn't understand that you were making a joke, and was sitting here wondering how using a different type of database would solve this kind of problem.
I think that the economic argument is that it isn't viable for a private company to start a nuclear power-plant, it would require government involvement, and lots of people don't want the government to get involved in something that they think no-government entities can handle.
I think that he is nowhere as influential as reddit thinks.
This is the conclusion I came to a few years ago when trying to find out why nobody had ever bothered to translate his writings into english:
Reddit usually points out that what he writes aligns pretty well with what putin seems to think. The problem is just that this is what almost every russian fascist thinks, it is nothing unique about dugin, he is just the one russian fascist thinker that reddit got their eyes on...
While I'm happy that something is being done to address the problems of social media; as an outsider I'm having a hard time understanding why every problem has to be solved with law suits in america.
I agree about the comments here often being the most interesting part.
But I think that the best way to start the conversation is usually with a well-written article.
If there would only be a title and no article, I'm pretty sure that I would find the comments to be less interesting.
But maybe I'm wrong, and since my argument is based on the original article being well-written, maybe it isn't true for most posts.
But I still think that I would rather try to find the posts with good articles, and just ignore the rest, and hopefully, that is what the ranking system does (at least help with).
