Seized or not, they can not force you to unlock your phone via pin without a warrant. They can only force you to use biometrics.

You can enable lockdown mode. It forces the next unlock to ignore biometrics and require a pin, which police cannot force you to divulge without a warrant. Once enabled, you get a "lockdown mode" option in the menu when you hold down your power button.

I think the biggest issue arises in the fact that most new creations and new ideas come from a place of necessity. Maybe someone doesn't quite know how to do something, so they develop a new take on it. AI removes such instances from the equation and gives you a cookie cutter solution based on code it's seen before, stifling creativity.

The other issue being garbage in garbage out. If people just assume that AI code works flawlessly and don't review it, AI will be reinforced on bad habits.

If AI could actually produce significantly novel code and actually "know" what it's code is doing, it would be a different story, but it mostly just rehashes things with maybe some small variations, not all of which work out of the box.

What AI did you use? I feel like most should have (big "should have") known better since the vulnerability was within it's cutoff date. Yikes.

If these last 10 years have taught me anything, it's that most Americans are not progressives.

Can I screenshot this comment and post it on Twitter as ragebait to farm engagement?

To be fair, this research comes from a limited number of patients and is from the 1950s and 60s, a time not exactly known for its accurate assumptions in the field of neuroscience, lol.

It's an extremely common aspect of human psychology to make up a story to explain the results of an event or reasoning for your actions after the fact.

It's even been demonstrated in specific cases in studies of people who've received brain hemisphere bifurcation to prevent grand mal seizures.

The side of the brain responsible for speech is not shown information or things the individual must complete, then when asked why they performed such an action, the speech responsible side of the brain will spontaneously make up a resonable sounding story to explain it.

I highly recommend checking it out. It's an absolutely fascinating look into human psychology

I'm sure I do this same thing all the time subconsiously, and I've certainly noticed it in others.
