That’s the fun part! When the US government is also in charge on enforcing the law, they can do whatever they want!

I thought Apple’s WWDC keynote showed some good uses for it, but you’re right, it kind of is just incremental, and may or may not be worth the privacy/compute cost. I personally am mostly excited that Siri will be able to contextualize my calendars, notes, messages, etc. There are lots of bits of information I’ve lost over the years, that isn’t actually lost, but just buried, and current search just isn’t up to the task of finding it. Or searching through notes: instead of having to remember when I took a note and where I asked it, I can just ask Siri a question and it’ll basically search through my notes and find the answer.
I also think it’s going to completely change academic research. Instead of going to Jstor and using a traditional search bar, you could just tell the AI assistant what you’re thinking about, what your theories are, etc, and it will search the catalog and find relevant sources for you. It removes a layer of friction, which I think will make a lot of people more efficient/effective.
The main argument I see against it is “well that is all well and good, but none of that will matter when the internet is full of AI-generated crap.” I mean yeah, that’s true, but the internet is already full of non-AI-generated crap. Sifting through the shitty ads and “sponsored posts” has already made the internet nearly unusable IMO. That’s a bigger problem that we need to deal with, that’s separate from AI.
I think healthy skepticism is always a good thing. A lot of people seem to be looking at this tech as a panacea, which it absolutely isn’t. It’s still really important that we have the ability to identify when it may be hallucinating, just like we really need the ability to think critically about literally anything on the internet.
I’m excited for it. I don’t think hallucinations will be a huge concern. Knowing about all (or most) of the content on my devices is a MUCH easier prospect than knowing everything about everything, which is an idea that OpenAI or Google certainly aren’t trying too hard to refute about their models
Not me but my friend technically made the world’s biggest chicken nugget. Turns out getting Guinness to certify it is kind of a pain though so it’s not on the books
I think most people underestimate how big of a deal it’s going to be when this tech is pervasive in things like search engines or digital assistants. There are many times when I can’t figure out the right combination of words to put into a search engine to find the results. ChatGPT is already my go to when I want to figure out a movie or song from some random combination of foggy memories. Imagine after 10 more years of cpu/gpu innovations, and chat applications that have actually been designed for information retrieval, how much that is going to transform how we interact with data and information.
Full disclosure, I didn’t watch the video. I just can’t imagine that that headline isn’t going to look silly in 30 years.
In 30 years, we’re going to look back at this headline like we look back at articles about the internet or smart phones being fads.
Mental health?!?!1! What are you some sort of commie??? I just put my feelings into a bottle of Jack Daniel’s like a REAL ‘MURICAN
Sounds like OP is interested in learning to set up/administer a VoIP system rather than just looking for a communications platform
Great we can 3D print it when sea levels rise and it disappears! (I didn’t read the article…)
Could you elaborate on Singapore? I have a friend who lives there and her rent is obscene…
Been using it since I read DDG was discovered having trackers from Microsoft, which they’ve since removed - or so they claim.
Considering the only news results I get on DDG are from MSN, I believe it, but also I’m guessing the net result is the same…
Two words: Backward Compatibility
As a Californian, this is mostly just propaganda. Yes, immigration doesn’t affect Medicaid eligibility, and yes that’s a good thing, but if you aren’t low ENOUGH income for Medicaid, coverage is expensive.
Also as others have noted (and more directly addressing OP) California isn’t anywhere close to a single payer system. We have a marketplace of private insurers like everybody else
There are going to be as many opinions on this as there are women who like having sex with men. Some women like dominant men, some like submissive men, some like doms on even days and subs on odd days. Some only like doms on a full moon. Im using silly examples, but the point is human sexuality can’t come anywhere close to fitting into binaries like this. Individuals have their preferences, and no two individuals’ preferences are going to be the same.
Not sure if this exists, but it would be really nice to remotely see if my stove/oven is on and also remotely turn it off
I bet a burger is still $15 and fries are still $8 despite minimal labor costs. I wonder if the kiosks will prompt you to leave a tip
Search for electronics recycling in your area. They’ll take stuff for free or a small fee, depending on what it is. They’ll dissect the stuff and reuse all the components
That’s not at all how interest is calculated on amortized loans
No, LA isn’t getting anything done. Not clearing encampments of likely less a humanitarian decision and more of a “let’s keep doing nothing” decision
