Probably for storing large training data libraries. Takes vast storage, but only need to be periodically accessed during training run on that specific part of library. Once the training is done, there is no need to have online access to the data.
Plus with tape drive library robots, it’s not like they have to be manually handling the tapes often.
I will always remember him from Guardian organized sketch “what has European Convention on Human Rights ever done for us”.
Their decades long usage of consulting companies to be a sycophantic permission giver, since they don’t want to bother making well founded good business decisions. “Don’t blame me, I hired a consult and they said to do this. If decision was the wrong one, it is the consults fault. Then we hire a consult to figure out what the last consult did wrong. Then consult to consult on the consultation of the second consult on the first consults consultation”. Please pay me millions and millions of dollar to be a consult hiring person. Oh and please a golden parachute promise also, in case I need to get fired pronto.
If one was able to do good decisions on ones own, is confident on those decisions and able to make the arguments to back up the decision, one wouldn’t need to hire the consults to be the professional fall guys.
edit: Oh and I don’t know is it really needed, but well it is evidence point that also exists. So they simply changed “consult” to “AI agent”
Investigators are now determining whether the fence was damaged deliberately or as a result of a traffic accident.
So how about we hold our horses until police investigates and it doesn’t turn out the cluedo culprit was “drunk Horst on the way back from pub to home, crashed the fence, backed out, fled the scene due to being drunk as a skunk and doesn’t want to get breathalyzed”.
Now I fully admit the another possibility is Russian sabotage and nuisance making. However we don’t know which it is before investigations are carried out.
Not every happen stance in the world is Russian SVR or GRU operation. Assuming so gives Russia more power via fear of omnipotence. Attribute it to Russia, when investigation gives reason and evidence to strongly suspect so. Beyond doubt is kinda out of window, since they go to lengths to make proving that really hard.
First there would have to be such thing as “future commercial space station” in the first place.
they will have another buyer lined up probably in South America or Africa, where the sanctions aren’t as common
