My point was about affordances. The interface has its own, but we already deal with affordances through human language so this is nothing new.

I suppose you also think that guns shoot people?

The LLMs are just an interface through which we communicate. Much like how the language we use is also an interface. LLMs have certain properties that lead to convergent and low-information communication, but so do languages (and their accompanying cultures).

They pay regardless of the country they live in. The standard in European countries is that you’re only considered a tax resident if you spend a certain amount of time in the country per year. It’s easy for a wealthy person to avoid paying taxes in Europe, but an American can never avoid it, regardless of residence.

And again, just because they move to a state with lower taxes doesn’t mean they don’t pay taxes. The highest earners in the US pay the vast majority of taxes. This is a fact you can easily look into yourself.

I said that they pay. Your comment can be summarized as saying “They try to avoid having to pay more.” But this doesn’t contradict what I said.

The situation is the exact opposite of what leftists and europoors think: American billionaires basically fund the US and pay taxes regardless of residence. Whereas in Europe the so-called middle class (1200€/mo pre-tax in the relatively “wealthy” areas where I live) pay the bulk of the taxes, and the wealthy use all kinds of loopholes in order to avoid paying any.

The situation is resulting in this terrible feedback loop of higher taxation, increased regulation, decreased productivity, and increased poverty. And then people turn to socialist politics which just continues to exacerbate the situation.

But sure, keep twisting the truth to suit your political agenda.

The only way to achieve higher levels of competence is to enforce higher levels of accountability. Over the last couple of years Spain has suffered major infrastructural catastrophes without any leadership being held accountable at all. It’s not unreasonable to consider jail time or even capital punishment for such gross negligence.
