@Sketcz Yes. When it comes to theocracies, this is as good as it gets.

This is the most progressive regime they've ever had- by far.

Why, just recently, he put it to law that not only can women leave the house unsupervised, he's even allowing them to get behind the wheel of a car!

Yes, that is the bar : women being able to head over to the DMV without their man walking them there like a dog and getting themselves a learner's permit.

Progress doesn't happen overnight; no country has ever just got up one day and decided to morph into a modern utopia. Well... except maybe Japan after WW2. But we all know why that was.

What happened to the reporter is heartbreaking and should be fully condemned. But, unfortunately, the world is a complicated place. These countries have operated a certain way for centuries.

@jojobar Wish you were right, but I am fairly certain you are not.

There is no shortage of poor people willing to train it for next to nothing. It also actively trains itself- it gets smarter by the second.

The jump in quality for generated video content over just the last 6 months has shocked even me. We're one or two iterations away from it being virtually indistinguishable from reality.

...and to think that companies aren't salivating to exponentially widen the wealth gap and keep the rest of us fighting for their scraps...? edit I'm sorry, "Create a utopia where we only work 2-3 days a week and live happily ever after?" 😂
