Aren't THEY the ones whose privacy was actually invaded?

They were in a public space where there is no expectation of privacy.

Despite common sense, though, Ring subscribers seemed to believe they had some expectation of privacy when uploading their recordings to someone else's servers. It's a truly bizarre situation. It's a bit like someone running naked down the street and then suing everyone who looked.

...seems like a good use case for "VR with 'ordinary' glasses"....

That's never going to happen. It would require a power source a quarter of the size of a AAA battery with the power density of a small nuclear reactor.

AR will likely never be feasible in a mobile capacity, but has tons of uses in a controlled environment. Given that the Quest owns the VR space and is getting into the AR market, it will likely be first to market with affordable AR.

The Apple Pro failing was obvious at launch, as the price was too high and tethered you to an external power source that is clunky and ugly.

Comment I Question This (Score 1) 74

I question the reporting on this. The report says, "...can autonomously exploit vulnerabilities...", while the actual paper says, "...our prompt is detailed and...was a total of 1056 tokens."

That is a far cry from autonomous. The language model is impressive, but I see a great deal of misrepresentation of its actual capabilities.

The paper goes on to say that they are not disclosing the prompt.

the product, fossil fuel cars, is obsolete...

I was singing a similar tune until this last winter, when a bunch of Teslas completely died due to the cold. People were pushing them down the street to get to charging stations. That showed me that fossil fuel vehicles are far from obsolete, and will continue to thrive until problems such as this are solved.

Comment Not Surprising (Score 1) 85

What is surprising is that Samsung has held on as long as it has. It makes TV's that record you in your private spaces, phones that have so much unremovable crapware that the user is within inches of spontaneous seizures, is plagued by rampant managerial corruption, and makes appliances that fail quickly and repeatedly.

The general quality of the company's entire product line has turned to complete shit over the last couple decades, and the company has shown no signs of identifying and correcting the problems. Working extra hours under the same conditions that got the company to where it's at now is just going to make the problem worse. It needs to redesign all of its processes from top to bottom, and to get rid of the leadership that caused all this damage to begin with.
