An elephant? Why not the wooly mammoth?

Exactly how wasn’t known anywhere before1875, however most humans through history seem to have had some idea of there being a connection between sex and pregnancy. I remember reading about isolated island peoples having other ideas, like the Trobriand people who believed that an ancestral spirit entered the woman’s body and that sex had nothing to do with it. However this article claims those reports are half-true at best; the Trobriand people apparently considers sex necessary for the formation of the fetus, even if it’s not the primary cause. There’s also some speculation that humans became aware of the relationship between sex and pregnancy after the domestication of dogs because of their shorter gestation period. Ultimately, we’ll never know…

And therefore the Lord slew him, because he did a detestable thing[.]

There are some great use cases, for instance transcribing handwritten records and making them searchable is really exciting to me personally. They can also be a great tool if you learn to work with them (perhaps most importantly, know when not to use them - which in my line of work is most of the time).

That being said, none of these cases, or any of the cases in this thread, is going to return the large amounts of money now being invested in AI.

Brad Pitt was one of the first people to try the time travel machine invented in 2030; however when attempting to make a career by introducing 21st century technology in the early 1900s, the only thing he could manage to reproduce was ink blots and folding paper.

In the hall of the mountain king is part of the work Peer Gynt. The whole thing is about 2 hours, but there’s a shorter version consisting of two suites which is about 30 minutes long. Here’s a version with some extra incidental music included at the end - here’s a performance of just the first suite.
