The AI roadmap given puts the opening date in fall 2027, whereas the official permit lapses in July 2027. So I'd rate that as false. My money is on a spring 2027 opening.

The AI "roadmap" isn't even worth acknowledging.

The official permits can be adjusted and aren't necessarily an indication of when the ride will open.

There are legitimate things to speculate about, guys. We don't have to outsource it to IP theft machines.

I don't like black box plagiarism machines that are demonstrably unreliable, no.

If you're just presenting an output, I don't trust it or care to look at it. If you'd like to present analysis that you actually conducted yourself, that's another story.

i've gotta say, that was so pretentious it made me laugh though :) its crunching data and sourcing, not suggesting foods to prevent cancer

What is the permit for? is the permit for when the ride is opening, or does it cover a construction period? do they immediately throw up the doors of the ride the day the contractors are done? let me know

You can drop the attitude anytime.

LLMs cannot even reliably crunch data and frequently invent sources that do not exist (or drastically misinterpret information it ingests). There is nothing pretentious about pointing out that they are a sham.

i mean... you outright called anyone with viable and totally legit concerns about HHN being impacted by RRR's demolition pearl clutchers, to start. Doesn't exactly set the tone to make you sound like the most level-headed or informed individual on a post where you're trying to substantiate a hypothesis. Like Cup of Coffee said, we appreciate you and your contributions, but this isn't it.

Anecdotally, I fly down from PA to go to HHN one night a year. i don't think i'm clutching at my pearls to say that Universal picked the wrong time to tear down RRR and put 50% of the houses this year behind disconcerting construction walls that leads to an exhaustive case of having to walk out of the way and rerouted around the already complicated and overstuffed traffic to avoid said construction. This is made more troubling amidst the more literal issues that have already popped up before the event has even started like the Tribute Store being completely removed from its annual spot and shoehorned into a lesser location.
We're losing a ride.
We're mired in construction that could have been avoided.
We're altering long-term pre-existing plans that people look forward to every year.
And we KNOW this year is going to be busier than last year, at the busiest time of year for USF in general.

I hope/don't think i'm the only one concerned about this year and don't exactly think it's kind to take digs at people who are for -what I think are- justifiable reasons; Especially if we have MUTLIPLE years looking at HHN/USF being impacted in various ways some of us haven't seen/witnessed for ourselves yet.

I'd like to add a joke, or some satire, at this point in time to slow things down. But I'm drawing a blank. ...Wait, my go to song for RRR was "I will survive"..... ;) :cool:

Bingo - obviously the park is going to prioritize certain things, but it’s wild to call people "pearl clutchers" when they think it'd be better to wait until HHN ends to close/tear down. Particularly when many parts of the event require you to walk UNDERNEATH THE RIDE THAT IS BEING TORN DOWN

Bittersweet. I was there for it’s first day of operation in 09. The last few years I got legit terrified at that initial lift because I feel like it stalled more than ever. I’ll miss its existence more than the ride itself. Loved seeing it in the skyline from all over the resort. Excited for what’s coming next!

So your reflex to scream “bullying” because of a (rightful) constructive criticism over the use of AI has…nothing to do with defending AI?
