French speaking and French nationality

This is false.

Why not just run the recordings through Shazam and note down the track ids from there?

8000 people used to high salaries and probably living in or around silicon valley with insane cost of living. I don’t have high hopes for them switching to working on fediverse projects…

This was not a physics experiment, this was an art project.

No, not really. But I’m also lost as to what you mean.

I think the main counter argument to this is a practical one. Microsoft, Google, Amazon, all these greedy corporations have contributed to many open source projects and initiatives. Google has a strong influence in defining web standards, should we ditch web browsing? Amazon and even Microsoft have contributed to Linux either trough donations or direct contributions, both in the kernel and in foundational software that runs on top of it. Should we ditch using Linux servers?

Blender is great software that makes 3d modeling accessible to a lot more people. Why would you need an alternative because Anthropic donates money to it?

Actually people growing old and developing dementia or Alzheimer are much more expensive than people dying (relatively) young of lung cancer from smoking.

Have they gotten better at testing or have they gotten better at hiding doping?

Why are researchers conducting deadly attacks? Did they get frustrated from doing research?
