No but maybe they should.

It should be opt in. So that you are aware from the start what you are potentially getting in to.

My cat just took a dump in front of the litterbox. Somehow that seems slightly more relevant than this news.

Also, our AI doesn't just regurgitate ingested text, code and images, often poorly. It is capable enough to END HUMANITY! (buy our shares pls).

Pioneering reusable rockets, manned launches to the ISS, a super heavy lifter, lowest launch cost on the planet, a launch cadence that looks like something from an SF novel, and a satellite constellation that brings in enough money to pretty much self-fund the development of their future spacecraft. And in case anyone wants to point out their income from lucrative launch deals with the US government, one should also consider not how much those contracts are costing the US taxpayer, but how much they are saving (compared to the next cheapest launch provider).

Say what you want about Musk, SpaceX is certainly delivering the goods when it comes to space flight.

Yes but RAM shortage.

Until they get an edge TPU to process the locally gathered data and send the results (now much reduced in size compared to the raw data) to the mothership, using 4G/5G. Like modern cars are already doing.

So it's already on by default? And they are enshittifying the non-AI part of the service to push you to leave it on... Sounds great.

The reality is that most of the auto manufacturers' design choices, whether it is the shape of the car, the trim, the gadgets or the controls, are driven by only a few things:
1) Regulatory requirements and fuel efficiency
2) Cost
3) The Chinese consumers.
The last one is a considerable factor.

In modern cars, real buttons and switches don't directly control the equipment they are for, they tie into a bus connected to a central controller that handles the car's functions. They can still add a subscription model on top of that.

Exactly. Especially as it seems that the AI companies are selling their tokens at below cost. Small-scale installations for local models may make sense for individuals who want to keep their data isolated, but they do not make economic sense for companies.

DDR4 prices have gone up as well, over 400%. Even DDR3 prices have spiked. Same with storage, HDDs are up 200-250%. People who can't afford the latest hardware have already turned to older tech.

We might see some Chinese companies filling the gap. We can only hope.

It's a start, though I wasn't aware of the requirement to have the meter changed. It's not needed here, the inverter is supposed to handle the cut-off.

The benefits do go to the tenant, that's been the problem of getting this stuff financed. The landlord pays for better insulation, solar panels, heat pump and perhaps a battery, but it's the tenant who reaps the benefits in the form of a lower utility bill. In the Netherlands we can at least charge more for energy-efficient rent-controlled homes, but financially it is still rarely worth it... the housing market being what it is, you can charge €1000/month for a leaky bicycle shed. It seems that the Belgian solution is to simply force landlords to make the upgrades.
