The new Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses do have a display. But in any case, these applications work almost just as fine with speakers as well, and the Ray-Ban glasses had those and supports reading documents, describing surrounds etc.

Plain glasses with camera come much cheaper. Though now that I looked it up, the Meta glasses are surprisingly affordable as well.

edit: scratch that, I don’t know what I was looking… For me Ray-Bans would be 500€ and Metas maybe 1000€.

Lack of imagination. One can easily imagine scenarios where glases can be useful outside filming other people. Simple tasks like getting a receipt and scanning it before throwing away, or getting dietary feedback on a menu items would be quite more easily achieved with smartglasses than otherwise. AR-assisted navigation in cities with to image data could be quite useful as well.

Not to mention if one has sight issues; I can imagine describing environments or reading texts being wildly useful for some.

Perhaps consider first banning devices that are designed for secret filming, e.g. “car key” cameras, watch cameras, pen cameras, powerback cameras, and yes, glass cameras… You can find them from Amazon for <100€, which is much more affordable option in the first place.

I thought the idea of digital sovereignty means you host services in the same legal domain or country, not that you literally “self host” things. For example, nobody is calling that the EU organization should self-host anything, only that they would use European cloud services.

Or does “host it myself” actually mean that someone else would host it for you? I don’t believe that’s the common way to understand it.

I actually believe this is an unwinnable scenario for clients. Just whenever the block app/db updates, automatically check if ads are blocked. If they are, have an engineer or AI iterate until it no longer is the case.

And the reason why blocking solutions can’t do the same is that there’s cery kittle money in it and not enough people working for free on it. Or that’s atleast my hypothesis…

“Only” 70%, though of course the point stands.

I went with the approach of giving it its own Google account, so that it can create docs and calendar events and then add me, rather than getting access to my Google account.

I wonder though: if Google can link this account to you as its actual owner, I wonder if there’s a risk if the bot does something against the ToS?

I hope you have backups of your Google account…

The problem isn’t the tool, it’s the user: they don’t know if they’re getting good code or not, therefore they cannot make the prompt to improve it.

In my view the problems occur when using AI to do something you don’t already know how to do.

When user enters a prompt, the backend may retrieve a handful a pages to serve that prompt. It won’t retrieve all the pages of a site. Hardly different from a user using a search engine and clicking 5 topmost links into tabs. If that is not a DoS attack, then an agent doing the same isn’t a DDoS attack.

Constructing the training material in the first place is a different matter, but if you’re asking about fresh events or new APIs, the training data just doesn’t cut it. The training, and subsequenctly the material retrieval, has been done a long time ago.

This is not about training data, though.

Perplexity argues that Cloudflare is mischaracterizing AI Assistants as web crawlers, saying that they should not be subject to the same restrictions since they are user-initiated assistants.

Personally I think that claim is a decent one: user-initiated request should not be subject to robot limitations, and are not the source of DDOS attack to web sites.

I think the solution is quite clear, though: either make use of the user identity to walz through the blocks, or even make use of the user browser to do it. Once a captcha appears, let the user solve it.

Though technically making all this happen flawlessly is quite a big task.

Well, if these devices required any sort of authentication (e.g. pairing) to free access to their ram and flash, we wouldn’t be having this particular story…

It’s nice that this exists, but even for this I’d prefer to use an open source tool.

And it of course helps with migration only if the old HS is still online…

I think most practically this migration function would be built inside some Matrix client (one that would support more than one server to start with), but I suppose a standalone tool would be a decent solution as well.

Wish the homeserver portability would be worked on more. The ability to change homeserver would really allow people to more easily move on from matrix.org.

Myself included ;).

Optimally it would even allow the switch “after the fact”, so after your original homeserver is down, assuming your client has a local copy of the server-side secret storage. It would need to be based on some cryptographic identity then, I suppose.

Does he already not have the opportunity, robot or not?
