I've noticed that, if an equation calls for a number squared, they usually really mean a number multiplied by its complex conjugate.
It sure feels like we're at the peak of the Gartner hype cycle. If so, the bubble will pop, and we'll end up with AI used where it actually works, not shoved into everything. In the long run, that pop could be a small blip in overall development, like the dot-com bust was to the growth of the internet, but it's difficult to predict that while still in the middle of the hype cycle.
The original blog post (linked in the article) refers to this as a DynaRec, i.e. a dynamic recompiler. So it's not exactly emulating, but nor is it the ahead-of-time recompilation that Rosetta 2 can do.
Relevant XKCD. Humans have always been able to lie. Having a single form of irrefutable proof is the historical exception, not the rule.

That's not true. They make frequent-enough releases, they post monthly progress reports, and they are actually going to become Thunderbird's Android version.

According to Wikipedia, John Riccitiello was CEO from 2014 to 2023. So I think your facts are off, unless Unity was planning layoffs and fee changes nine years in advance.

I feel like she's trying hard to distance herself from Trudeau, but after years being right beside him, I doubt she can shake it that easily.
