Me too. That’s why whenever I go for a day hike I bring a gallon of water, a sleeping bag, several days of food, make shift shelter, a sat phone, a water filter, some fire starter, bear mace, a couple flares, a hatchet, a gun, a first aid kit, and most importantly a full change of clothes in case I get wet.
Don’t know why everyone doesn’t do this for every hike they go on

1 device > 2 devices in most instances.
If people were always prepared for everything the world would be a much better place. But they aren’t, and apple’s SOS feature will likely save lives

Humans get inspired by their own perception and imperfect memories of other artists and experiences in their life, AI models literally take the art and add it to their model.
Regardless, you seem to be proposing we treat AI models as if they are human beings and not products. We aren’t going to do that. It’s a nice philosophical game maybe, but if you just look at the facts of the matter you’re dealing with a case of a company taking unlicensed artwork and adding it into their product.

Reply to comment by mad_drop_gek in The world is (on average) 50% reliant on nonrenewable sources of phosphorus fertilizer to grow food. It won't go away this century, but prices will increase and ~3/4ths of reserves are controlled by one country by fartyburly
Some of these shortages likely won’t be a massive issue. You can look to israel for saltwater treatment, they figured it out because they couldn’t be dependent on their neighbors not damming their fresh water sources.
It’s inevitable this investment eventually comes to the American southwest, and eventually spreads out through humanitarian efforts to developing nations experiencing drought.
Similarly, several other people in this thread have discussed the alternatives to modern fertilization.
In fact almost all of the issues with shortages likely won’t be a big problem has they have known alternatives in place. The cost/benefit from a strictly financial perspective just isn’t there yet to implement them. And as a result our natural resources continue to suffer

Yeah I can go buy stuff with the US dollar, and my savings held in the US dollar won’t drop 50% in a matter of days. Just a couple pretty small differences…

Lol, insurance regularly determines doctors are wrong and won’t cover medications or treatments they prescribe

Let me phrase it a different way.
For the majority of people that are getting lost on a hike, how many of them do you think are well prepared? How many of them do you think have their cellphone on them?
