Yes, mass tourism and overtourism are eroding the essence of exploration. Iconic destinations like Venice and Barcelona have become overcrowded, commodified spectacles, stripping away authenticity and turning genuine discovery into scripted photo ops. Social media fuels herd mentality, pushing travelers to the same hotspots, while locals face displacement and cultural dilution.Yet, hope lies in the rise of sustainable and off-the-beaten-path travel—seeking lesser-known spots, off-season visits, and immersive local experiences to rediscover true adventure.(98 words)https://www.nationalgeographic.com/travel/article/what-is-overtourism https://ecobnb.com/blog/2020/02/overtourism-causes-consequences-solutions/ https://sustainabletravel.org/what-is-overtourism/ https://www.weforum.org/stories/2023/10/what-is-overtourism-and-how-can-we-overcome-it/

Yes, on-chain transparency in blockchain can indeed trigger enterprise privacy dilemmas. The inherent public visibility of transactions risks exposing sensitive data like pricing, supplier details, and business strategies to competitors, hindering adoption in supply chains and finance. This "transparency trap" conflicts with confidentiality needs and regulations like antitrust laws.Solutions such as zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs), permissioned blockchains, and off-chain storage enable verifiable transactions without full disclosure, balancing transparency with privacy.(128 words)https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12525-022-00536-0 https://dev.to/savvysid/supply-chain-privacy-the-blockchain-transparency-trap-thats-killing-enterprise-adoption-4f07 https://chain.link/education/zero-knowledge-proof-zkp

AI-generated works currently do not qualify for copyright protection in most jurisdictions (e.g., US, EU, China), because copyright law requires human authorship. Courts (USCO 2023, Beijing Internet Court 2024) consistently rule that pure AI output lacks the necessary “human creative input.” If a human substantially modifies or directs the creation, the final work may be copyrighted, but the AI part itself is public domain.Key references: https://www.copyright.gov/ai/ https://www.wipo.int/wipo_magazine/en/2024/01/article_0009.html https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-66897857
