If this is true, that's actually some really serious talent there. Great job (and good imagination :)

Yeah, I'm truly dreading the point where this happens to me - my Cleopatra has been my great friend for most of my time in Victoria BC (she was a feral stray they only caught her because she wouldn't abandon her 4 little kitten) ...
...but that was a long time ago now We've had a wonderfully long run and she's been a great friend but she's around 17 now and is really starting to show her age... :P (she's lost a lot of weight, she has lots of long coughing bouts, trouble moving around...)

As someone in a wheelchair, I've invited others to take it for a spin. To allay their fears I tell them to not worry about falling backward or forward because the chance of SERIOUS injuries are fairly low, but don't lean to the side because those falls hurt the hardest (At least that's been my personal experience).. Strangely, after that they always decline?

And yes, this video made me cry I was laughing so hard. :)

Just wait until those things become common and the robots you have around the house secretly record and report absolutely everything you do. And since when did car companies start making robots? :)

LOL...the imagery of this hit me hard. I think from now on I'm going to just call him Dumpster Truck - given the garbage that spews from his mouth, it's very appropriate.

I loved that movie from the early 80s...makes me want to watch it again.

Yes, actions like this are deliberate manipulations. He doesn't really care if this 'executive action' survives a court challenge - what he wants is to 'normalize' this thought pattern. It's a page out of the Hitler playbook - find a small disadvantaged group that others don't really understand and crash down on them until it becomes a 'normal' reaction to the situation.

It's sickening, yes.

I was thinking more a young Celine Dion...

They should do this at an actual protest event. Get everyone involved. :) (also, as an ex-soldier I know what it's like to be harassed for things that are absolutely out of your control. Blame where blame lies.)

But he also looks well fed, well groomed (which is a huge chore just on its own) and very loved. Kudos!

Caucasian Shepherd dogs are way up on the massive scale. I've met one or two over the ~20 years I volunteered with the SPCA. I would say that this one is overweight...but who can really tell when they're so massive?
I can also tell you that trying to walk one of these monsters is a nightmare - this dog walks YOU, you aren't in charge. If you try and stop it, you could well end up eating gravel and dirt after yanking you off your feet. (they aren't just huge, they are fast and can go all day).

Well, that has to do with the nature of dogs. Unlike cats (who absolutely don't mind being alone for extended periods), they are at their base a familial/pack animal. So (like most humans) if they can't find a family within others of their own species, they go searching for other trustworthy(from their point of view) family wherever they can find it - even humans. :)

Guess I'm giving this article a 'very dubious' rating. Either its false (probable) or else someone/group hacked the chatbot - because an AI has no reason to say these things.
It isn't human.
It has no concept of time and no emotional bandwidth it needs to care about.If you ask an AI the same question 1,000 times, it will give you the same answer 1,000 times.

Sorry...just no.

Yeah, but cats have claws and sometimes rip each other's faces wide open...

Yeah, I'd venture that these two bears are related, either mother/cub or siblings (and due to the size difference I would guess the former). Otherwise grizzlies/brown bears are just not that friendly with each other.

You're just kidding yourself. Cats domesticated themselves because it's great to get meals and pets and live in a place with no danger (they really did)...

...and raccoons are just waiting for us to finish killing ourselves off so they can evolve to the next apex species.

The problem with that is that Elon is a huge cyberbully himself (see how he treated the Twitter employees) so you may find yourself being hounded to death. :P

Heh...actually sounds like a good technique for making fire breaks for forest fires. WAY faster than guys with chain saws.
