They know who the bots are and yet hey are letting them stay on the platform. Let that sink in.

Thats the Slashdot editors, taking something the author of the article suggested and stating it as a fact. TF study itself makes no such claim.

And TFA article says as much. Maybe its not the amount of noise, but more noise equals bigger roadways, which equals more pollutants in the air, along with higher percentages of carbon monoxide and less oxygen in the air near their homes.

If being in the cult of AI means that I use it on a daily basis for software development, security pen testing, and system automation and monitoring. I guess you got me. I am well aware of what it can and can't do. And it is very much more capable than you appear to believe. And you're going to be quite shocked when you realize how wrong you were.

Tell me you know zero about the current state of AI. Wait. You just did.

If their idea of marketing was "hack our business partner, get reported to the feds, then our business partner has to use a chinese competitors product" that's not a very good marketing plan. Your argument makes little sense.

This isn't really true anymore. Fiber used in telco can go many hundreds of miles and costs vastly less than 20 years ago. The equipment on the ends costs a tiny fraction more to go longer distances (or in some cases the exact same as short haul). The only big expense, is the manpower to drive a truck down the road and hang the fiber on those poles. Which is the part they don't want to do, and is exactly the part they agreed to do to get all the benefits of being a monopoly.

I am not arguing for or against AT&T. That said, in the majority of the locations AT&T wants to discontinue POTS service, there is no internet available. ATT would need to run fiber at great expense to bring internet to these homes.

Those are all purely software problems at this point.

I don't want to talk to either.

I need to buy a new virtualization server and the RAM costs 3X-5X what the actual server costs. It's ridiclous.

I just watched the bodycam footage from this, and to my surprise these cops were very well behaved. They never cuffed the guy, or in any way escalated the situation. They figured out very quickly it was a mistake and let him on his way.

This is rare in the world of today's policing. So you gotta give credit to these guys. Everyone involved kept cool heads.

The target price for these robots is $25K each.

RTFA. Humanoid robots.

Or maybe you need to be better at RTFA. These where ------> humanoid robots -------. Not specialized divici style robots.
