It's inevitable that something like this will appear regularly, and one day it will be silently exploited.
At that point, everyone will scramble back to on-prem, but until then we have to tolerate this cloud nonsense, apparently.
No, no, that's fine.
You've just testified before a court of law that there are no adverse health effects. Noted. You all stand by that statement, right?
Because then when the lawsuits start to fly, not only can you be charged with whatever charge it would be, we can add perjury to the list too.
Unfortunately, the parental controls are basically "on/off" measures, and schools and other places are increasingly expecting them to use AI tools.
And though parental supervision is THE TOOL, it doesn't apply when they're walking to and from school, on someone else's phone, or even using a laptop in a playground. Trust me. I know.
And then the AI tools are entirely lacking ANY KIND of parental control in themselves.
It's like telling everyone that they have to use 4chan for their homework, and then being shocked that they run into things they shouldn't.
Don't make / allow kids to use unsuitable tools, and AI companies should be offering a "child-safe" AI that simply isn't trained and can't discuss anything it shouldn't be able to discuss with a child unsupervised.
But, no, their solution is "we'll just check if you're 18 using the very tool that's already terrible and determining whether it should discuss ways to kill yourself or not".
Shock, horror.
When everyone has one, the value of having one plummets.
But apparently I'm the one who lives in 1984 because I live in the UK and people misinterpreted a CCTV survey from 15+ years ago that included private CCTV cameras only for Lonond...

Even solar LiFePO4 setups come with built-in heaters in the batteries nowadays.
This is a non-issue. Of course you use more power when it's cold and you're trying to heat things up, this isn't rocket science.
So buy a car that has a capacity greater than your maximum range, especially if you're buying for business for becoming reliant on it. They're not hard to find. In fact, when EV shopping for just standard personal models of car, I see Long Range / Extended Battery options on everything, and even the lowest battery is higher than the nonsense cited in this article.
If only, with the announced phase-out of fossil fuel for vehicular use almost worldwide, there were some places we have which won't be used so much anymore which could be used to host electric chargers in the same location so that, in the near future, people won't have to go further than they currently go to refuel / recharge...
Well, yes, but if I lived in such a climate, I'd be parking the car indoors regardless. It might not be 20C inside the garage, but it's a damn sight better than trying to start at -15C.
Where they don't disturb anyone, don't look ugly, generate more power, and don't take up land.
Yet again:
If you couldn't even be bothered to write it, what makes you think I should be bothered to read it?
Tell me when they have a single profitable product tier.
HUGE bubble here, I look forward to the investors demanding a return on their money.
The fad is starting to plateau.
How ironic, and completely, utter unpredictable.........
They'll be a few token attempts to revive it / rename it / pretend we've invented whole-new-AI for a few years, then it'll die and people will mostly forget about it (especially when AI companies start trying to recoup their losses by charging at a rate that actually PROFITS them), normalise the useful parts according to that increased (i.e. real) cost, then we'll move on to some other fad for a decade or so.
In this case, the car belonged to the parents of those kids, and was registered in Italy. I don't know the Italian law for that.
It was clear, however, that those kids never buckled up in their parent's own car, that the child-lock wasn't on by default, and the kids didn't think opening the door while driving was anything wrong.
Because they just charge the original bank for the costs and thus all users can use all banks without fee.
Same way credit cards work.
The bigger question is: Why do you think it's normal to pay a bank to obtain access to your own money?
I can use pretty much any bank I like and the ATM will let me withdraw money from my account for free.
We even have an organisation that banks sign up to to make sure it all works, including things like changing your PIN at any ATM etc.
It's called Link. https://www.link.co.uk/our-mem...
