Lol
Well I guess it would be useful for growing in space, where there’s no protection from Earth’s magnetic field and stuff
You’ll have to grow some kind of food, and potatoes are famously what Mark Watney ate almost exclusively XD

Ironically this has now become a test case for the use of Bing Chat as an assistant for legal research. https://x.com/1hopecomingtrue/status/1727861061725069415/

Thats a good point and it would be nice if humanity could divide and conquer responsibilitys in a more effective way. I mean It would be nice if Europe would specialize in deep space vehicles if this is what their best at.
They could allow SpaceX and the Chinese to compete for the Earth/Mars ship & cycler market, while Europe could step one step further distant. and become the king of ultra-long-haul journeys such as between Jupiter’s moons, the asteroids, etc.
Eventually this could culminate in Europe leading the creation of modern, state of the art new vehicles to run the Grand Tour and go so fast they outrace the Voyagers.
..Somewhere in these paragraphs I totaly forgot to make a good pun about ruling Europa

I too am very interested to learn more about the original exact circumstances in which Altman was, allegedly, not consistently candid, if such circumstances exist at all.

But how many more decades until ESA finally has a launch vehicle stack with a fully reusable first stage? It’s like theyre still living in the 70s.

I’m not an open ai employee. I used to work in law. I’m looking into your question and started to collect web archives of pages that might be valuable evidence later in case microsoft tries to change their Investor Relations page. I tried to put it on git hub and I wasnt sure what license to use so I did gpl 3. I hope this helps. https://github.com/almamater54/investigation-into-possible-f...
