Majority of the world prefers stability over United States bombing people’s homes in Middle East and elsewhere. The entire NATO is against this. Pointless aggression and war that serves no purpose other than economical and human loss needs to stop.
Additionally Iranians don’t support this, nor do they want their children getting killed by United States. Regardless of their issues with the government, they rally around the flag to defend their land.
So I would assume that “we” here represents majority of people in the world.
Have you considered not providing intel to Irak to allow them to use sarin gas against the Iranians? Or overthrowing their democratic regime that wanted an audit to understand how much of its oil was stolen by US companies? Or designating it as the "Axis of Evil" and sanctioning it after that it helped you invade Afghanistan? Or assassinating their religious leader during negociations?
Iran didn't become skeptic about the US overnight. I would advise to do some reading on wikipedia on the topic to make up your mind.
Iran sent missiles to countries hosting US military assets. I think that it's quite clear why they do it, unlike the US. They had also warned before hand that it would happen in the case of a US unprovoked aggression.
The Iranian government can suck and it can still be a net negative for the Iranian people to bomb the shit out of their civilian infrastructure and kill and bunch of schoolgirls.
The Iranian government sucks. There is zero chance that Trump is capable of leaving this conflict with a stable liberal democracy that protects the rights of the Iranian people in place.
That’s not what Iranians expect or are asking for. Every Iranian I’ve spoken to is thankful that Khamenei is now dead and there is at least a chance of change. They don’t expect Trump to fix their country for them. They want someone to help so their own government isn’t shooting them dead by the thousands in the streets.
Some of these are neccesary parts of LLM's. They use the content they create to direct what they are going to say. This applies to patterns like "In conclusion, ..." and what the author calls "Fractal summary". Turn them off, and the general quality of the AI thought gets lower.
There is nothing ideal about that outcome. The "regime change" people talk about is intended to look like what happened in Libya: A failed state that falls in anarchy.
It doesn't matter - when a strong and stable political structures suddenly collapse, the state fails and disintegrates due to the political infighting. While I agree with you that the chances of Iran becoming a completely failed state is unlikely, I do see an imminent civil war in Iran's future if a regime collapse happens, and the Americans and Israelis install their Shahi (royal) puppet there. A regime collapse will of course mean Iran will lose its sovereignty (probably for a decade or more), till a truly independent stable polity emerges form the ashes.
I could see the water crisis, notably absent here, being what tips it. Iran is facing water bankruptcy and acquifers / groundwater recharge takes decades to centuries.
That's just simplistic western propaganda. Sporadic protests, nationwide or otherwise, don't mean anything unless they are backed by long-term-opposition with strong grass-roots and singular political goals. Iran's regime remains strong and stable - it controls all the political institutions, it controls the civilian government at the local level, it controls the religious / cultural institutions, it controls the military and it has substantial support from the people. Why do you think Israel or the US isn't sending boots to the ground? Apart from the official military, the IRGC has a voluntary civil force, that can be armed by the Iranian military, in every district - if Israel or US send their soldiers to Iran, they will face a very brutal urban warfare with a high death toll.
> Iran's regime remains strong and stable - it controls all the political institutions, it controls the civilian government at the local level, it controls the religious / cultural institutions, it controls the military and it has substantial support from the people.
I see two issues with this assessment. First, I am not sure how substantial is the support from the people. And second, Assad also had all this control over the military, the local governments, etc., etc., and then his rule collapsed in a week.
While Islamic Republic's repressive machine in the form of IRCG and Basij are in much better shape than Assad's, it is not that great if they had to bus in Iraqi militias to help with the suppression of protests.
I do agree that it is not clear if there are viable opposition figures inside Iran, on the other hand it is naive to expect it to be the case given the tight grip IR had on the country.
I guess we can hope that all this war is not for nothing.
All of that was true for Japan as well but it went very well there, so your analysis is flawed. The more organized a country is the easier it is to change it, the more primitive the harder it is.
So they integrate Gemini to summarize open web pages and consolidate all your open tabs into summaries. (Open lot's of pages, then summarize them all.) You can search your history with natural language and type Gemini queries directly into the address bar.
This will give them a cognitive profile of you: reading comprehension, decision-making patterns, knowledge gaps, etc.

Great! A diviner has vibe-exposed the arcane magic word knowledge on the steps to ultimate knowledgeplasty! Come let us get together to share more trial-and-error wordsmithery, Together we will someday have ultimate power!
If the model creators themselves arent sharing this magic-word bullshitteryy then why is anyone spending time on this? It is just going to change with every model release
In other words, just like programming, we’re writing better instructions. In this case, we’re asking it to think out loud more clearly. It’s almost like whiteboard interview prep.
It’s quite amazing because it means programming is fully entering the natural language phase of the timeline.
If you aren’t a solid clear writer, you may not make it in the brave new world.

Have you not heard of all the AI startups that can turn a 3-word thought into very clearly written prose to be lovingly poured into the waiting mouth of your AI agent?
The same reason kids are first taught the Bohrian atom model. It is less clear and precise, but thereby also less complex.
"100 baskets of apples" is easier to hold in your head than "23 baskets of red, small-ish apples, 12 of large red, 6 of any size green...", but my no means does it permit a more clear view of the Truth.
Given that this has been a serious problem with Google models, I would guess it would have been a good thing to at least add one such example in the marketing material. If the marketing material is to be believed, the model really prefers black females.
> Given that this has been a serious problem with Google models
It hasn't been though, has it?
At one point one of their earliest image gen models had a prompting problem: they tried to have the LLM doing prompt expansion avoid always generating white people, since they realized white people were significantly overrepresented in their training data compared to their proportion of the population.
Unfortunately that prompt expansion would sometimes clash with cases where there was a specific race required for historical accuracy.
AFAIK they fixed that ages ago and it stopped being an issue.
Wrong. It's a great sign. We have had enough of the barrage of US aggression around the world.
