I feel like that is too on the nose. Prague U and related media is just propaganda and alternative history. I suppose some of it is close to what is already being taught for some parts of US history.

The ammo/parts thing was more about how without domestic production there room for it to be affected by changes to import laws or sanctions.

Personally I’m not worried about using something that some other group seems to like. I want what’s practical and fits my needs. There is a reason ARs are so common today. They’re just good and can be built/modified to fit a lot of people or use cases. If I really wanted something different just to be different I’d get something like a vz 58 or some kind of space gat. It’s still kinda hard for me to justify the expense for that kind of reason and I have to rein it in a bit as I kinda want all the things.

To me it looks like an over estimation of the capabilities for the tech. Same kind of thinking that led to lawyers submitting fake cases as support in court. The current tech can be useful but has to be verified and generally tweaked a bit to be good enough. It certainly has room for improvement in quality and just not lying. Real world use has some copyright questions with what the training data was. Applying it to something creative is questionable and more or less feels like uninspired remixes.

Also the whole graphic is kinda suspect to me when “Blockchain engineers” is a job category and it’s produced by an org working on AI.

That’s exactly what it originally said. This is a repost of the edit I saw a year or two ago.

Lol, clean your guns if you’re getting jams. (The idea about jams is mostly a myth based on military personnel being told they didn’t need to maintain early designs while fighting in a jungle.)

If you prefer AKs that’s fine. It’s also fine to own both but I think in the US an AR is more practical for most people if they can’t afford both. There are also weird designs mixing the two or having one chambered in the others caliber.

In the US an AR is generally more affordable and more available. Parts and ammo for it also has more standardization and domestic production. In general it would be easier for most people to work on ARs. In other parts of the world an AK would be more common so more recommendable in my opinion. And the low end offerings there would be better than the low end offers on the US market. Where as you can still get a mostly decent AR for $600 in the US. If I got an AK I’d want to spend notably more than that to actually trust it.

Those who make the decision still have a full blown office with real walls and a door so won’t be negatively affected. It’s mostly pushed because the open office idea is cheaper and allows managers to see butts in seats. Studies show it’s a bad idea but people talk about collaboration and whatnot as an excuse.

There is a documented thing insurance companies have started doing where they deny claims until you appeal them. AI was being used somehow to determine which cases.
