Despite being a big innovator in tech Japan still loves fax machines.

Japan hasn’t been quite the tech innovator in recent years like they used to be. IIRC, their tech sector has actually been in a pretty big slump for the last 20 years or so. Maybe “slump” isn’t the right word, but the growth isn’t as rapid as it was in the 80s and 90s.

Microsoft, Amazon, X, Reddit, Meta, Salesforce, several AI platforms, gaming platforms, some ISPs… Everyone’s having a rough go of it today.

“No, Teams isn’t affected by this outage. It’s… just always like that.”

Honestly I kinda don’t want him doing that, either.

Because none of the others you mentioned have anywhere near the same grasp on the attention of today’s youth like TikTok does. Those are boomer platforms at this point, making there little avenue to direct children toward sex work because there’s basically no children on the platform to begin with.

Not that they’re not also problematic for a million other reasons - they absolutely are, just not for this particular reason.

Yeah but how are we going to exploit the poors with a system that works?

Plus, these automated AI actions have the potential to violate FAA and DOT regulations - as an example, flight check-in requires human acknowledgment that bags do not contain banned substances like explosives.

Maybe, just maybe, the idea of checking in before you’re physically at the place you’re checking into is a half-baked, short-sighted idea which defeats the entire purpose of “checking in” somewhere and should have never been implemented in the first place?

It’s because AI agents will find the cheapest tickets. United, and every other major airliner, manipulate ticket prices on a per-user-session basis to try to milk as much money as they can out of you. An AI agent will bypass the dark patterns on the ticketing web pages to ensure that you get the base-rate ticket price, or as close to it as possible. That’s the only reason they’re banned.

That, too.

“But from a global allocation perspective, actually, it’s quite terrible to have everybody have a bunch of the world’s limited supply of [dynamic RAM] food sitting in their own computer pantry,” he added.

Sounds a bit evil, like the kinda thing a cartoon villain would say. Doesn’t matter if it’s food or RAM, he wants what is yours. His continued existence is a personal and direct threat against you, your family, and their safety.

And again, the Internet is not something that you just evaporate water into; it’s not a cloud. It’s a series of tubes.

I mean, this has pretty big ramifications across the web as a whole. This is going to signal to other platforms that they should do the same, and huge swaths of the internet are going to be effectively inaccessible to search engines.

This makes it much harder to find information online without sacrificing more of your privacy. We do care about this.

The real reason they stopped training on the live Internet because their agents have already poisoned the live Internet to the point of being unusable, even for bots.

Or they’re downvoting because it’s just a long rant with dozens of uncited, speculative claims. It’s not really a good fit for the community.

That’s not what he said.

They ask Grok how they should feel about it.

I’ve been to court, and it never even occurred to me that the lawyers are not placed under oath. But they’re the ones that do most of the talking during a case. I wonder that the reasoning for not being under oath is.

I think you may just be lucky. The McD’s in my area are still just as awful as they’ve always been.

That’s cool and all, but when can I buy RAM again?

Yes, but what was left of it after killing third-party apps was basically just advanced search functions. Nothing in the API was still usable as far as browsing/posting.
