I don't want Apple to win, but I DO want Musk to lose.
I don't think I'm quite the target of this comment because I don't pretend it doesn't exist or that it isn't something that people use or care about. But I do avoid using AI for anything that matters.. like at all. I also refuse to use chatgpt or any of the commercial offerings. I do play around with locally hosted stuff because the tech is interesting, but there is no way I would ever put my faith in it. Also, my feelings toward the biggest players in the industry are at best "disgust". So I don't want to use their products.
So my question then how exactly can I be in the room to help shape decisions? The only two levers I have to pull is whether or not to send those companies money, and whether to even use the free services or not.
What exactly am I supposed to do? The companies will just make whatever models and tune them however they feel will achieve whatever goals they have regardless. And presently, their goals do not align with mine.
I won't be surprised when we are fucked. I promise you that. I can see that coming. But I feel utterly powerless to stop the tech fascists.
What if instead of making quantum computers (hard) we just use AI to tell us what the quantum computation result would be?! (easy)
slash s, please don't at me. It's Microsoft. You KNOW some exec has already suggested it.
The war thunder forums are going to go HARD for the next 4 years.
I know it's hard, and it takes work and everyone is stressed af.. but you really should if at all possible look into the mla's you vote for to see if they are personally bags of trash before voting for them instead of just voting based on the party they are in.
"Let’s set aside the obvious conflict of interest and ethics questions at play here —" You can't, and you shouldn't.
"We can even skip over the security implications pointed out by a cybersecurity expert in the Times piece. " You can't, and you shouldn't.
"As a practical matter alone, there’s no obvious reason to add another ISP in order to improve Wi-Fi coverage" It doesn't take an entire paragraph to figure out what's going on here let alone an entire article.
As someone from north of the USA border.. PLEASE stop this man from stealing your country, Americans.
Her name's Millie! And she's a bard/sorceress! Focusing on glamour, illusions, and controlling people through song and magic.
No! That's not sad at all. I find it much easier to express my creativity through other outlets but often find myself pretty envious of how creative and put together people make themselves look in person!
I've been making a 3d vtuber model to use for one of my dungeons and dragons characters, and this week has been mostly focused on her outfit and jewelry. She's got a very fantasy pirate looking blouse and skirt, with a necklace and earrings made with beads, driftwood, and seashells.
https://www.youtube.com/@ElliotCoen for reviews of discs and boutique media, sometimes I want to watch stuff I see Corridor Crew talk about, or cinemastix. Edit: I'm very interested if anyone knows of any women out there doing film reviews or discussions. It's mostly dudes out there.
There's a few movie collectors I follow on youtube and I consider their recommendations and reviews of bluray discs. I've also picked up at least one movie from someone talking about it during one of those wired 'tech' support videos. Following a hashtag like cinemastodon or something can also get you some organic recommendations.
