So the only thing that requires actual on-target rational thought? That does not sound good at all.

THAT is your criticism? Seems pretty invalid to me, because Windows did not really do any better back when.

Sad but true.

They will likely still listen to and record everything. The main difference is that you pay the power used. But now you have the illusion of the data staying on your device. Nice!

Or maybe the Epstein version ...

On Linux: No need, it finds the hardware and uses it.
On Windows: Well, Microsoft is probably fine with this crap move and will try to sabotage attempts.

Yep. That has happened to a lot of companies that were originally lead by engineers.

Yep. On Linux, as soon as you get the kernel loaded and started, it takes over and uses what is there, unless you tell it not to.

I.e. they want people to pay more for it, so they disable what is there and works fine on cheaper models?

I think in the EU, that would be pretty illegal. In the US, it is probably entirely fine.

Altman has these occasional bouts of honesty. Usually, he just lies like a good CEO is supposed to. But in the past he said things like LLMs definitely not being a path to AGI and the like.

Sounds to me like they intentionally hallucinate to postpone the inevitable crash a bit longer.

I know a few. I don't know what it may or may not mean. It may be relevant that the ones I know used a community-based approach, where groups of homeschooling families worked together to create something akin to a school, with different parents teaching different subjects. This meant that while the kids socialization groups were small, they did hang out with and learn with other kids, not just their siblings.

It's more than that. Research into the possibility of a link between vaccination and autism has been done, and no correlation found. This is evidence that there is no connection and it's entirely different from a case where no research has been done. One is evidence of absence, the other is absence of evidence. The GP is equating them, but they're not remotely the same thing.

Show me all of the studies that have evaluated the correlation between FSM action and autism. There has been a lot of research on the possibility of a correlation between vaccination and autism, and no evidence of correlation has been found. There is an enormous difference between "We've looked hard and found no connection" (evidence of a negative) and "We haven't looked at all" (lack of evidence).

In addition, there's no need for the CDC to debunk a claims that are not being made, or non-harmful claims. To pick a less-ludicrous example, there's no significant population claiming that eating grapes causes autism, so there's no need for the CDC to address it. Further, if there were an anti-grape lobby touting a connection with autism, the CDC probably still wouldn't need to address it because some people avoiding grapes doesn't create significant health risks to others.

But there is a significant population claiming -- against strong scientific evidence -- that vaccines cause autism, and that claim is causing them to reject vaccines, which does create significant health risks for others. So, the CDC absolutely does need to address it, since public health is their job.

Your analogy is terrible, in every way.

Bullshit. My claim was "Cookies are not even mentioned in the GDPR". That claim is accurate. And that is the regulation part.

Obviously, any judgments regarding concrete technologies will refer concrete technologies and comments on them. But these comments will be checked for validity by the court. Same for derived national laws. Recitals are nothing more than comments. They are NOT part of the regulation.

Seriously, why can you assholes not admit when you are flat out wrong?
