Lol, they don’t even match consistently between Portuguese and Spanish which are much closer, even when the noun is literally the same (e.g.a água vs el água)

jmcs@discuss.tchncs.deto Technology@beehaw.org•ChatGPT 'got absolutely wrecked' by Atari 2600 in beginner's chess match — OpenAI's newest model bamboozled by 1970s logic4·2 months agoWe understand reasoning enough to know humans (and other animals with complex brains) reason in a way that LLMs cannot.
While our reasoning also works with pattern matching it incorporates immeasurably more signals than language - language is almost peripheric to it even in humans. And more importantly we experience things, everything we do acts as a small training round not just in language but on every aspect of the task we are performing, and gives us a miriad of patterns to match later.
Until AI can match a fragment of this we are not going to have an AGI. And for the experience aspect there’s no economic incentive under capitalism to achieve, if it happens it will come out of an underfunded university.
We can solve those problems directly or indirectly by tying superman to a dynamo. With free energy even the issues with materials can be solved over time.

For the trial, he needs to get 20 republicans for the two thirds. It’s not going to be cheap, but it sounds doable.
The problem is that leaves Vance in charge, and a focused autocrat is not an upgrade.

The solution is turning this on its head and having a law saying which weapons are allowed.
Granted it’s hard with how the archaic constitution of the US is written and how creatively the conservative judges read it, but decisions like this give room for states to try more tiered access to weapons.
