  1. So come back. Go to jail without going to jail. Go to police hospital without needing to go to police hospital. Get royal pardon. Be released.
  2. You mean like ThaiVisa will never change it's name to AseanNow?
  3. If you haven't noticed The Thaiger uses ChatGPT extensively.
  4. The Asean Thaiger Chat GPT.
  5. Guess we can look forward to more Chat GPT produced content with article images selected by or totally AI. Yippee! The NZAero article with a pic of a Papua New Guinea Defence Force Officer for a story about NZAero and Thai aviation business is a classic example. The Indonesian sub image in the article about the Chinese sub purchase was another classic although this was Thai Newsroom. NZAero’s mega deal set to soar with Thai aviation giants Defence Minister, Navy Chief Leave For China To Wrap Up Submarine Deal Maybe the standards will improve but I won't hold my breath. More or less pop-ups??????
  6. You are somewhat wrong. Change "appears to be" to "is" and then you're 100% correct. No doubt needed on your part. One get's the impression that that Chat GPT chooses random images along with producing the articles at The Thaiger GPT. It's just so amateur that everyone one at The Thaiger GPT should be embarrased. I believe this may be the same person....
  7. The Thaiger may soon be the new owner of this site, however, this article does not come from The Thaiger.
  8. To true and MFP were denied their right to govern through a deal that saw Thaksin return with no jail time. Yingluck I expect will see the same amount of jail time. Zero.
  9. New battery technology and hyrdrogen cell/liquid hydrogen technology isn't too far away. Lithium ion batteries are on the way out. This was my point.
  10. Thailand’s PTT Plc sees future in hydrogen fuel for vehicles Thailand: The HUB of being late to the party. PTT Plc, Thailand’s national oil and gas conglomerate, is forecasting a future where hydrogen could potentially replace oil-powered vehicles,
  11. Yep. Face of Tesla is certainly about to change with 10% of it's global workforce going to get the boot.
  12. “I am confident that, in two years, Thailand will house a large-scale battery cell factory. This will mark another significant milestone, further strengthening the supply chain and establishing a solid foundation for the long-term growth of the electric vehicle industry in Thailand.” Trying to bolster a waning EV market in China. Hydrogen or new tech batteries such as sodium, sulphur and solid state for example are the future not lithium ion. In two years lithium ion batteries will be on the way out. As I said the Chinese EV market is not healthy. Not sure if this is the right horse to back. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/boom-in-china-s-ev-market-slows-as-economy-weighs-on-sentiment-1.2019532
  13. It's a Chat GPT article which should be self evident as it's come from The Thaiger.
  14. The actual numbers of fatalaties is also a falicy. Some say it's only those who die at the scene are counted but a senior doctor at a major hospital told me it's within a 24 hr period. Either way many will succumb to their injuries after the fact. As for traffic going slow I'm not sure I totally agree with you on this. Yes traffic is slow but idiots will try to get through faster.
  15. The so called 7 deadly days are usually less deadly than every other day of the year so your comment is way off the mark.
  16. It would seem from negative emojis to my above post (quoted) that some people cannot recognise that I'm pulling the piss.
  17. Can't see a problem with non-elected governors. Let's face it a non-elected senate has worked fine (not for democracy of course). Indeed in a country where the government itself is non-elected it seems to me that non-elected governors would be the norm.
  18. No. Sorry but I think you should do some research. Average from these four days is around 40 whereas the daily average over a yearly period is around 60. Of course these fatalities are only those that die at the scene or within a 24 hr period so actual numbers will be much higher.
  19. Pic and article is AI. The Thaiger Chat GPT couldn't even manage a muay thai pic. This is meant to be a news article not some fluffed up piece of prose. Of course this is what Chat GPT does.
  20. Severe weather alert for 36 Thai provinces amid heatwave This is a headline not a quote from the TMD. Nowhere in the article does it mention a heatwave. NOTE: April 6, 2023 Thai health officials have issued a heatwave alert as temperatures rise across many parts of the country, with the Bangkok district of Bang Na expected to hit 50°C today. "According to a Bangkok Post report, Dr Opas Karnkawinpong from the Public Health Ministry says the extreme heat could pose a particular risk to children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions. He adds that people who work outdoors are at increased risk of dehydration due to excessive perspiration and heat exhaustion. April is known for being the hottest month of the year and The Thai Meteorological Department says many parts of the country can expect to see temperatures above 40°C today. The mercury is expected to rise to 40.6°C in Phetchabun, 41.5°C in Si Sa Ket, 49.4°C in the Laem Chabang area of Chon Buri, and 47.9 °C in Phuket." This was last year. Even then it wasn't a heatwave as these temps did not go for an extended period which is part of what defines a heatwave.
  21. Same as last year? Year before? I'm not saying it isn't hot. It is. That's why it's called the hot season also known as the dry season because it doesn't rain much. Occasional hot season storm is about it. Again it's not a heatwave. It's average hot season temps. Nothing out of the ordinary. Just hot. Mid to high 30's - low 40's. Standard April temps. If it's low 40's to mid to high 40's then, yes, heatwave may apply if it's an extended period.
  22. A heatwave is a prolonged period of abnormally hot weather. It's not abnormally hot. It's April. It's hot. It's the hot season. It's not a heatwave.
  23. Again I say it is not a heatwave it's just average April temps ranging from mid 30°C-low 40°C with overnight temps in the high 20°C. As for storms they forecast this at least once a week with very little to nil accuracy.
