AI isn’t the problem on its own

I can accept a plagiarism machine that is exaberatting multiple international crises, but I draw the line at too many posts on a subreddit!

like c’mon, i’m also frustrated at what’s going on in retro dev communities, but that’s small potatoes compared to just about everything else concerning LLMs

more like POOPER INTELLIGENCE

don’t forget the advances in headlight technology. traffic will be a solved problem once cars can vaporize each other with their high beams

Looks like they took some cues from Dark Audacity. A dark theme is nice, but when Audacity first started adding telemetry shit I took Dark Audacity for a spin and hated more or less every UI “improvement.” Lots of extra menu diving to access important, heavily used features DA decided was “clutter.” Tenacity has some bugs but it’s served me very well since otherwise

Interesting how many TRON Association members were also adoptees of the MSX standard, which had similar (but less ambitious) goals to be “the” world computer interoperability standard. i wonder if that was why they jumped off the project at the first sign of trouble, thinking it was a good thing they didn’t keep all of their eggs in one basket. NEC likely ended up outperforming them both with the PC-98 anyway

finally, i can livestream my ear canal 24/7

there’s a certain poetry to someone making an uncritical game about a technology meant to cheat drivers out of a fair wage using a technology meant to cheat other disciplines out of a fair wage. the venn diagram of people who would make a game about this and make a game with AI is probably just a circle

most european countries, and some countries in south america and aftica. outside of that you’ll need to look into AI-NTSC or AI-SECAM or get a foreign CRT and voltage converter

if this was about Number Go Up, they’d probably make more money selling the despined books or something instead of destroying them and selling (or do whatever they’re doing with) the raw pulp. this sounds like an expensive process and there’s no guarantee that expanding these datasets is going to improve their models in a quantifiable way, let alone a profitable one. they must just get some kind of perverse pleasure out of making the world a worse place

his genuine reasoning sounds like the kind of exaggerated strawman i’d use to mock AI supporters. if he only had a brain!

yeah, i’m intrigued by the idea of a pseudo-“dumb” phone to reduce mindless usage, but this is too restrictive to really work as a phone for a lot of people. those banned work and social apps have and will continue to supplant the phone features of a modern phone. if i got one of these, it would have to be a supplementary device, defeating the whole point! and for those of us who can use a “dumb” phone, they can just got get one for a fifth of a price

it’s like that old IBM slide days. “A computer can never be held accountable. Therefore a computer must never make a management decision.” i find that quote meaningful in a lot of contexts but it’s especially relevant when we’re actually talking about management

intelligence is knowing the AI is the tool, wisdom is knowing the user is the tool

The company shared that it would go “all-in” on the mobile version of the platform in February.

TIL there’s a non-VR version of Horizon. wasn’t the whole point that it was VR? what’s even left if you take out the VR, just voice chat?

i personally find bananna audio the most appealing

i think what artyom is getting at is that showing google maps works the way we already knew it worked isn’t much of a point, let alone a big one

wild how far technology has marched on and yet we’re still essentially using the same basic idea behind technicolor. but hey, if it works!

ooh duly noted thank you

the only integration i want between my phone and my car is a 3.5mm audio jack. i’m driving a 2016 right now and am dreading replacing it because i doubt i’ll be able to find anything without this “infotainment” crap. i thought i had read that those were being phased out because consumers unilaterally hated them, so reading the opposite here is a huge bummer

i think about this every time i open outlook on my phone and have to wait a full minute for it to load and hopefully not crash, versus how it worked more or less instantly on my phone ten years ago. gajillions of dollars spent on improved hardware and improved network speed and capacity, ans for what? machines that do the same thing in twice the amount of time if you’re lucky
