In case anyone’s curious: it is likely a cell wrapper misprint/typo.

4300mWh AA lithium ion cells are a standard extended-life chemistry. 2866 mAh is their actual rated capacity.

Edit: 2866 x 1.5 = 4,300

Edit: I wasn’t actually disagreeing with the comment above. You should downvote me too.

Board of directors

Correct. The board defines the company, not the CEO.

CEOs are usually puppets. Whatever role they play, you can bet they were hired specifically to play it, and were incentivized to stick to the script.

Their job (legally, their fiduciary obligation) is to maximize shareholder value, to take the credit or blame, and fuck off.

The board (typically key stakeholders) are so pleased when the public focuses on their CEOs, even if it’s for their shitty opinions, behavior, or obnoxious salaries.

Because the worst thing that could happen to them would be for the public eye to actually follow the money, and it’s easy to see why.

If the rabble truly fathomed just how many of those “golden parachutes” stakeholders stockpile with every disgraced CEO, however ceremoniously disavowed…

Accountability would shift to more permanent targets yes but, more importantly, it would quickly become common knowledge that, all this time, there were in fact more than enough golden parachutes to go around.

Because what we call intelligence (the human kind) usually is just an emergent property of the wielding of various combinations of fist or second-hand experience by “consciousness” which itself is…

What we like to call the tip of a huge fucking iceberg of constant lifelong internal dialogues, overlapping and integrating experiences all the way back to the memories (engrams, assemblies, neurons that wired together to represent something), even the ones so old or deep we can’t even summon them any longer, but often are still measurable, still there, integrating like lego bricks with other assemblies.

Humans continuously, reflexively, recursively tell and re-tell our own stories to ourselves all day, and even at night, just to make sense of the connections we made today, how to use them tomorrow, to know how they relate to connections we made a lifetime ago, and how it fits in the larger story of us. That “context integration window” absolutely DWARFS even the deepest language model, even though our own organic “neural net” is low-power, lacks back-propagation, etc etc, and it is all done using language.

So yes, language is not the same as intelligence (though at some point some would ask “who can tell the difference?”) HOWEVER… The semantic taxonomies, symbolic cognition, and various other mental tools that are enabled by language are absolutely, verifiably required for this gargantuan context integration to take place.

FWIW this is a common post-regime debate. Visit Berlin to see a number of creative solutions.
