SAP is a product that has worldwide implementation, so is Microsoft and Nvidia, etc. The UK does not have a company like that. Even if what you are saying is not the case, the list will not change much. The richest EU company is valued at 340 billion. Microsoft is valued at 3 trillion. Organically they are valued at about 2 trillion.
But by the time you bring them to normal valuation (about half), other countries companies will start to come in when you run the list again and relative to the size of population should present a more balanced picture

This is true but even if that is the case, it would still not make any difference. We know the stock is overvalued.
That's why I used the word partly. And also you can't compare a 330m population domestic market to a 70m one. Also the world keeps throwing their money in simply because the Fed keeps pumping so they want to make a quick buck (Saudis, Norwegians etc) not because they see value there.

That's partly because the American stock market is a casino pumped by the Fed, with valuations far in excess of normal profit multiples

FTSE average price to earnings ratio is 15, that means it would take 15 years of profits to earn back your investment if you bought the company at current valuation and used it's profits to pay back your initial capital. While Nasdaq PE ratio is 28, and some real Casino companies like Tesla are 170

Not a bad shout but there is no dynamism in midfield with Enzo and Caceido. We could play 9 hours with Caicedo and Enzo and have no shots or through passes from midfield.

James helps with some dynamism.
He doesn't help with no dynamism

Lavia or KDH are better midfielders than him at this stage

Is it Fofana that has the fitness for RB?

I say it again and again, James does not have the fitness to play RB, unless you just want him breaking down and out of the team time and again.

It is good squad management.
Then play him centre-back cos you need as much fitness to play midfield

In what world does Badiashile jump above Chalobah and Tosin even if you want to play Fofana at right back in order to accommodate James in midfield (who just doesn't have the sharpness for midfield work at this stage?)

So you move a left footed Colwill to RCB to accommodate Badiashile?

Maresca is a big fool

All this eediot Maresca had to do was bring Lavia into the midfield for at least the first 60 mins to stabilise things and keep James at RB.

Instead he brings calamity Badiashile into defence and plays James in midfield

Maresca should be shot on the blockos

The lecturer's first draft

Dear Bleep

Young man I did nothing wrong and if you get in my way tomorrow I will clear you again!

Second draft

Dear xxxx


I trust this letter finds you in good health I am writing in reference to the unfortunate incident that occured when you blocked my path on my way to the lecture theatre. I was unfortunately in a hurry to get to the class and you were not moving fast enough to get out of my way. The incident is regretted. I trust you are unhurt. I will endeavour to avoid situations where students delay me in my way to class in the future

Please take care and accept my warmest wishes

Third draft na chat gpt

This issue dey rage for office platform and some people don post the same thing wey you post so make I chip in

For me, the giveaway that the letter was written by AI is not so much the flowery and wordy tone but

1. The Title of the letter.

He wrote,

Dear Chidera,
LETTER OF APOLOGY TO MR CHIDERA

This is AI being used without proof reading, proper editing and correction.

It should have been

Dear Chidera,
LETTER OF APOLOGY

2. The overly patronizing tone and almost beggarly nature of the letter. The lecturer threw all his pride away. and was grovelling at the feet of the student. This is very uncharacteristic of a Nigerian lecturer.

3. The content of that letter went far and beyond the subject matter.

Look at the lines below:

I understand that my apology cannot erase the past, but I hope it can be a step towards healing and moving forward.

Erase past? healing? moving forward? kilode? on top a singular incident! When no be long term broken relationship?

Please know that I am committed to changing my behavior and ensuring that all my students feel safe, respected, and supported in the classroom. I will do everything in my power to prevent similar incidents from happening in the future.

How did a simple personal apology letter, expand in scope to ensuring all his students are respected, supported and feel safe in class?

If you are willing, I would like to meet with you to discuss how I can make amends and support you in any way possible. Please let me know if this is something you would be open to, and we can arrange a time and place that works for you.

Support? Did the student break some bones and land in hospital as a result of that clearance?

Again, this is overboard and uncharacteristic of a Nigerian lecturer, especially the one in question.

Even if I wan run this kain parole with the student, na to obtain hin digits, control am. give him a nice time and press small change for hin aza. Finish.

The letter is AI being used without human oversight and proof that AI sef dey gba.

Summarily, I can bet my March salary that the apology letter was generated by AI.

There's PR-speak and it comes with a lot bullshitting and posturing. Maybe he outsourced it to a communications firm to word his apology. Maybe. The internet is rife with apologies by Nigerians using similar tones before ChatGPT became a thing.

Attributing any piece of writing which seems so delicately crafted devoid of what we expect to AI is ultimately saying Nigerians are monolithic in our verbal or lexical expressions. People write in millions of ways.
We are still saying the same thing. Na ChatGPT write am last last. Most likely the Polytechnic HR drafted it for him using ChatGPT. I am OK to generalise if 95% if Nigerians don't write in this tone. This thug does not look like the other 5% from the way he raked that guy like a seasoned street nigga.

I have had a situation where HR has drafted responses for me to send to a subordinate over a dispute and they often sound like this in tone. I will tweak it to remove too much meekness from the communication and send back to HR to review before I send it out. It works the other way too, sometimes HR will send letter that looks too litigious stating dates of meetings etc and I will tweak to soften it cos the matter no too serious like that. Last last HR don't know the internal dynamics within a team and will always use the most extreme tone, whether it's conciliatory or litigious. These examples have now all been aggregated into ChatGPT which has produced this letter without any nuance. HR has clearly drafted it for this guy using ChatGPT. I don't think Polytechnic HR strong for bullshitting PR like this.

Maybe ChatGPT did for this lecturer, but don't generalize. I've been writing and speaking in very formal wordy tones (even in the course of regular WhatsApp exchanges) for years before OpenAI got its $1 billion funding in 2015, and certainly before the first iteration of ChatGPT in 2022; Including here on Nairaland. My friends and acquaintances write and speak in similar tones too.

I don't know what demography of Nigerians you've been acquiesced with, but a very sizeable number of Nigerians are reputed for having a very rich vocabulary stock; and even more so those in the academia whom this Nekede lecturer is a part of.

Soyinka, Hon. Patrick Obahiaghon and others famous for using seemingly grandiosely formal words aren't outliers or exemptions as I interact with such people everyday.
It's not about the grammar, it's about the tone of the letter.

Nigerians are more forceful in their tone even when apologising. They don't write that meekly. Even the best Nigerian writers have a bit of "bite" and pride in their words even whilst apologising.

Nigerians will use stories and proverbs to apologise - "our people say the sun should not go down on your anger", "to err is human" etc to conceal their pride at apologising, they just don't start licking mud straight away and throughout the whole apology.

The tone used in that letter was specifically from a feminine or gãy British HR advisor, and one of total surrender, and was mined from ChatGPT. The thug that raked that guy doesn't have that in him.

Ibime, what do you think?

Greenland did indeed vote for independence from Denmark. Jens Frederik Nielsen, the Prime Minister elect, expressed his interest in continuing talks with President Trump especially in regard to the security of Greenland and a continuing relationship with America. Greenland has no intention of maintaining agreements with China related to the use of their raw earth minerals. This could definitely be a great opportunity for America to gain a greater presence in the Arctic region.
The Greenlanders favour independence but want to do it slowly over many years or decades and that's because they are too small a population to pay for what it takes to maintain that vast land and they need Denmarks money to do so

In addition they are not strong enough to withstand the threats of being located so close to the arctic and asserting their rights over their economic zone, and neither is Denmark. Russia and China are already bullying them in those waters

So they can't vote to join USA just like that. It's in two stages. First they vote to declare independence from Denmark, then they later vote to join Yankee

As to their slow pace of uncoupling from Denmark, Yankee should speed it up by offering each Citizen $1m to $2m dollars each as well as cutting out clear land for each of them and their descendants on Greenland. Make Yankee no too reason am and just provide the money. I get a feeling Yankee is trying to do things the cheap and disgusting way by threatening annexation instead of making an offer. They should put proposal on the table

Meanwhile you need to go and find Greenland wife while you are still unmarried so you can benefit from the bonanza

AI is making people lazy.

Those of us wey go school in the days of very limited internet access, and had to use physical libraries, do overnight browsing at the cybercafe just to download materials for our projects are better grounded.

These days. the simplest writing tasks are done with AI. Even that one sef, dem no fit apply human sense to make it better.

I recently reviewed some seminar papers and all of them were written with AI but it's understandable cos students like sharp-sharp stress free work.

The first sentence in one of the seminar papers I reviewed went thus;

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of deaths globally.

How do you make such a weighty statement without stating the prevalence number and quoting a reference source?

Also that CVDs in bracket was a dead giveaway that it was AI generated.

I fear for our kids o, I really fear.

Hopefully, Turnitin will continue to keep people honest when it comes to serious academic output.
I hardly use ChatGPT anymore. I use Microsoft copilot because it educates you and gives you links to learn more.

I am not an absolutist. Anything humans can do to make things quicker should be encouraged. What they should do is shift the weighting of degrees more towards multiple frequent exams than homework since AI can do almost any homework now. In our days weighting was like 60-40 between exams and coursework, now they should make it 80-20 or 90-10

Department of Art & Design
Federal polytechnic Nekede owerri.

Dear Chidera
LETTER OF APOLOGY TO MR CHIDERA
I am writing to offer my sincerest apologies for my behavior towards you. I am deeply sorry for the way I treated you, and I realize that my actions were unacceptable and hurtful.

As your teacher, I should have provided a safe and supportive learning environment, but instead, I bullied and intimidated you. My behavior was not only unprofessional, but it also caused you harm and distress.

I want you to know that I take full responsibility for my actions, and I am truly sorry for the pain and suffering I caused you. I understand that my apology cannot erase the past, but I hope it can be a step towards healing and moving forward.

Please know that I am committed to changing my behavior and ensuring that all my students feel safe, respected, and supported in the classroom. I will do everything in my power to prevent similar incidents from happening in the future.

If you are willing, I would like to meet with you to discuss how I can make amends and support you in any way possible. Please let me know if this is something you would be open to, and we can arrange a time and place that works for you.

Once again, I offer my sincerest apologies for my behavior. You deserved better from me, and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.

Sincerely,
