Comment Re:If your stalker need (Score 1) 84

If you stalker needs face recognition to identify you; are they stalking you at all? That one does not even really make sense.

I would imagine it's a "one step up the chain" problem. Basically, if facial recognition is utilized to the fullest, without your own consent, Meta will have the option of tagging spottings for you by address, by map, by street, by landmarks, or whatever. So, if someone is stalking you, they don't even necessarily need to own a pair of the glasses. They can just check to see where you've been tagged recently and head out to find you.

Think they're beyond that type of thing? Think about how many photos you've been tagged in that were uploaded without your consent from "friends" that just upload every picture. It's not that far of a stretch.

I mean, the lower level managers wonâ(TM)t have a job to do once they have no one to manage. Itâ(TM)ll be reduced to just the managers who are needed to figure out what the product is.

Our management team are currently busy having AI write their single sentence reports into giant sprawling messes that the next up the chain uses another AI to summarize as a single sentence that may or may not resemble the original single sentence. They're already automating the main functions of their jobs, and they aren't bright enough to realize that's what they're doing. And all you need to decide what the product is is a sales manager and a marketing manager. The people that know the technical details don't get any say even now, so no need to worry about them getting let go as AI can bring the fantasies to life for the sales and marketing teams. Gonna be amazing when the only people left with jobs are the lowest dregs of humanity, marking, sales, and advertising. I suppose sprinkle a few lawyers in there just to keep it deep in the mud. Glorious future we've got coming.

If these people are targeting Sam Altman in order to hinder progress in AI, they are aiming at the wrong target.

Shooting at Sam Altman over the state of current AI is like shooting at Ronald McDonald because you got a bad cheeseburger. It's not gonna change anything, but I suppose you may get a little Warhol effect fame.

RTFA but even 6 months seems like it should have triggered something. unless they rely on AI to monitor the alerts, and if you know the model you can game it.

I wonder if you did a slowly accelerating transfer if it would just be shrugged off as a natural escalation of something. What, wouldn't know, but folks tend to get really stupid when something starts at a trickle and builds slowly over time.

I guess this will be logging that type of data, so another data logger.

Combined with entries for whichever of the various firewall tools you may be using for the "one click to block" part. People like their visual tools. I'd prefer the command line myself, but I won't complain too much about somebody coming to Linux and creating their own utility right off the bat. Seems very in the right frame of mind at least.

What do 120 employees at Plex do all day?

Did you not even read the summary? If all tech companies did this instead of finding new and interesting ways to fuck up society, I'd be all for it. Honeypot those big thinkers into endurance competitions of stupidity? Hell yeah. This idea has potential.
