Seems like the whole idea of writing essays and handing them in to be read and marked is dead for ever.

How long before authors are feeding all their works into LLMs and producing new works, slapping their name on it and selling it.

University's are like the music industry when Napster came along.

I've always suspected Japanese cars look like the centre of gravity is a bit higher and that they might topple easily.

Is there any chance they can play against England if they progress to the later stages? I'd definitely watch that.

People studying in coffee shops is very annoying. I want to spend money and enjoy a drink but I can't because the tables are blocked.

I wouldn't get too upset about it. This is just the beginning, AI will eventually destroy a lot of white collar jobs that women do now.

Don't these things depreciate to zero? I mean if you kept it for decades and and decades. You own no land.

That's pretty much $900k for an apartment, expensive!!

Does the movie cover the full context about why the bombs were developed and dropped on Japan?

How about all the poor in the UK, how are they supposed to pay 30% of cost? You should the queues for the food bank here, so much poverty.

This is the sort of headline which makes you realise growing old in Japan is not going to work out well. Imagine it will be worse for gaijin too, unless you're very wealthy.

Japan should be inviting them over.

The average working week is around 40 hours with a government minimum paid holiday entitlement of 5.6 weeks.

I barely work 35 hours since the shift to permanent WFH and getting 30 days paid leave. I can never work in Japan ever again.

I'm a fan of Carlyle, he was great in "To end all wars".

Does this finally mean the end to badly translated English so often seen in Japan?

Talking about AI in the land of the hanko and fax machine.

How comes they don't have proximity warning like in a car?

I don't even watch new films or TV series that often, I much prefer the old stuff.

Now, they are going to make it a lot easier on themselves if they vote out the political establishment and blow up the pension system.

Need to wait for those voters to pass on, although they would constantly be replaced by an ever increasing elderly population.

People simply having sex does NOT mean they are going to commit to raising children.

It's true because...

There were 126,174 abortions in Japan in fiscal 2021, according to the health ministry.

Many people prefer a dog.

Applied maths graduate

They should emigrate to the west where those skills will be very useful.

Do you think they raised the price because of fraud? I know many Japanese were using it who lived abroad.

Yep. Japan only wants white refugees.

I think it's more the fact that the war in Ukraine is high profile and they want to seem as though they are doing their bit to other G7 nations.

7eleven sells drinks for 150 yen that you can get from somewhere like Welcia for 100 yen. Stores were literally 2 min walk apart.

I hear Japan doesn't have enough electricity to support EV cars. Especially in the summer with all those aircons consuming power. Maybe if you have a solar panel and a drive way it's ok.

Jobs like translation, English teaching, call centers should be gone long time ago.

Will people need to learn foreign languages if there's AI translation?

That's quite shocking, poor women. Really need to insist on condom usage.

Yes but let's face it, this isn't going to work for the other 99% of working mum's is it.

Yes and it'll be a heavily aged 87 million people, with the population graph upside down.
