Pretty sure no one died or was seriously injured, so “site of worst nuclear disaster in the US” seems a bit sensationalist.
Very good that it’s reopening, horrible reason though. I can’t imagine how much is being wasted due to the Google AI rollout that forces it every single time you search, even the extension only hides it, it can’t get rid of it.
When it comes to generative AI with ChatGPT and imaging AI, I very much struggle to see any benefit it has brought to the world. Its meant less people with real jobs like graphic designers, in return for cheaper products, but in reality its led to lower quality websites with unchanged prices whilst large shareholders pocket the extra money from less employees.
Opening using taxpayer money.
Hmm tell me in the worst nuclear disaster in the US, how many people died, how much radiation was released, and how much harm was done to the environment?
You don’t have to look it up. The answers are 0, a near-undetectable amount compared to background, and basically none.
