I gave up and bought the Pixel 11 Pro XL, which I'm now discovering is a deeply unserious phone based on its screen-wasting excessively rounded corners, Display Size slider with the granularity of a light switch, and "Gemini Intelligence" boot logo

Antarctic snows
For most of this century, the Antarctic Ice Sheet has been losing mass at a pretty steady rate of around 100 Gigatonnes a year, pushing up global sea levels a small amount (about one third of a millimetre per year in fact, a little less than half the Greenland contribution for example). Antarctica is by far the biggest potential contributor to future sea level rise, so this is the number we all watch rather closely, as we also discussed the other week…

Was uns in Zukunft droht, und wie es mE tw heute schon passiert: Klägeranwalt reicht eine von LLM erstellte Klage ein. Beklagtenanwalt lässt mittels LLM erwidern. Irgendwann gibt es ein Urteil, das vom Gericht mittels LLM erstellt wurde.
Im Extremfall hat im Verfahren zu keinem Zeitpunkt ein echter Mensch einen Schriftsatz ganz oder überwiegend gelesen oder gar geschrieben.
Was das Ganze noch mit Rechtsstaat zu tun hat, mag mir jemand erklären.
