Why aren't you using protection, this is the internet!

For a while google search results were drowning in Pinterest slop, er I mean 'results'.

And why would they admit this just to dis AI? I guess it's their main competitor. Certainly says something for their future.

Is that scam still around?

AI, really just Automatic Insertion.

- builder: this joke's on you

Sounds like a plan, when no one can afford a home computer and all the computing is now hoarded in the datacenter/cloud/server... profit?!?

The billion dollar tax prep companies would never allow the IRS to go self serve.

The IRS lost the corporate government corruption war. We plebs are instructed to call it 'lobbying'.

Most use of AI is in a data center you don't control, that data is logged and there will be a history of your shiny new password somewhere in those logs. This is like asking your neighbor to make you a new house key.

Bought a new 12" tablet and it's paper thin, but when you sit it flat on the table it rocks because of the camera in the corner. That's just dumb.

If I press in the middle while it's on the table I am now flexing the case. That's really dumb. It's like these things assume you are going to put a case on it that makes it nearly twice as thick.

It's not the people, it's the companies. They invested billions (trillions?) into data center expansion and development, and discovered few people willingly turn on their heavily indebtedness AI features - so instead of reading the wall they made it a default feature that most never asked for. Now they can claim billions of users of AI when in fact it's just a feature that runs whenever you interact with the UI.

Now AI corps can say 'Look, we have all these users to justify our wreckless hoarding of computing resources.' Just look at search engines, for example Google defaults to running an AI query on every search. This is such a huge waste of resources. Although sometimes it is admitedly useful but that is the other problem - the search engine is now also the final destination page - once popular web sites with actual useful information will go dark since no one visits anymore.

I need a good chuckle. But wait while I get some popcorn.

I never saw sitting at a desk all day as work. The white collars set the prices though and are ripping off the blue collar workers - you know, the people that actually make everything in the real world happen - and their body gets used up in the process.

Some day those that keep the world going will actually have their fair share of the wages.

Probably not practical with the speed that memory runs on a GPU card, but gaming cards should have memory slots. So you can add memory when you need it. For AI targeted GPUs, this would be a big hit with both gamers and AI dabblers. You might be able to afford a card then add the overpriced jacked up expansion ram as you need/can afford it.

So besides shortages of electricity along with high rates. Now our internet service hardware will suffer shortages and high costs. If I didn't know any better I would think the AI companies hoarding hardware manufacturing is a threat to basic utility service. Yes Internet is now a utility as it has become hard to fully function without internet access.
