It‘s said you should be nice to secretaries because they hold a lot of soft power in an office. Now people give that kind of power over their lives to tech giants who already know way too much about them. This is bad for society. Full stop.
I‘m surprised they even had that. The average Instagram user probably doesn‘t even know what that means.
Much like Adobe‘s Acrobat which I also have to use for work. At least from what I can tell when it suddenly summarizes a PDF. There‘s no way in hell that happens locally. But the fact that it seemingly automatically processes potentially sensitive data from customers didn‘t even do as little as raising eyebrows when I brought it up.
Meanwhile SpaceX spends billions launching thousands of satellites into space and wreck the environment just so people can doomscroll their slop. When all we need are governments building some basic infrastructure like fiber internet for a fraction of the money.
Finally! A use case for AI! Oh wait we already knew it‘s used in all sorts of scams and criminal activity.
You mean the most popular brand of all aka Bambu? I can‘t recommend them even if they don‘t snitch at you right away. The ecosystem they‘re setting up is bad for consumers as is.
At the end of the day they still want things to look flashy of course. They know they need a thumbnail to stick out. They don‘t value creative work because it‘s hard to measure and it‘s everywhere. So the question emerges „Oh, how hard can it be when it is everywhere?“ That sentiment is multiplied times 10 since image generation became a thing. The internet already looks like a soulless slop machine because creative work is undervalued but still needed everywhere.
They probably have no one who can photoshop „44TB“ on a Hard Drive and don‘t think it‘s worth hiring someone on Fiverr to do it. Media designers, being the creatives that they are were always undervalued and among the first to lose their jobs to AI.
Probably cheaper than tens of thousands of satellites.
While BOTW is a masterpiece in my opinion, it‘s not a Switch exclusive. You don‘t even need a Switch or Switch emulator to play it. Many people even recommend emulating the WiiU version specifically. The WiiU is a much better platform for Zelda games anyway.
Xitter or xAI shouldn‘t be allowed anyway and California cyberlaws are bonkers. I would hope both instances tear each other apart.
I see. So who‘s going to jail for this? No one again? Damn we need to start sentencing entire companies to jail time. Everything should be frozen and shareholders shouldn‘t be able withdraw stocks until the time is served.
That is assuming OpenAI‘s tools are actually that powerful and useful or that Altman can keep convincing the US government they are. I would say it‘s still a very fragile enterprise.
I still wouldn‘t bet against the AI market anymore. Because even though the bubble must burst eventually the US government would intervene. There is no free market, just oligarchs enriching themselves all the way to he top.
A brain ship will be the last subscription you‘ll need before leaving your mortal shell behind to enter the hive mind of the web where our souls are merged.
Or something along those lines.
Pretty much. They‘re essentially outlawing privacy so there will be no point in resisting. This is worse than Orwellian.
I did a Tiny11 install with Rufus, felt accomplished and then asked me the exact same thing. Have been running Linux for 6 months now and didn‘t boot up my W11 partition since last year.
This headline describes the disastrous state of Microslop perfectly. It gets worse with every written word.
To be fair I wouldn‘t feel comfortable recommending a specific distro to someone. At least not long term. I do recommend giving Linux a try though and Mint is a good starter to see if you can imagine using Linux full time. But I really can‘t recommend using Arch to everyone. Other people have entirely different needs than I do.
I will not congratulate a terror regime that murders it‘s population in the thousands but I see the irony in big tech supporting Trump and now get to feel the consequences.
All so they can sell AI produced goods on their AI driven platform to AI users because none of us will have jobs.
