> There will be a future with a machine and a human economy.
Is the human economy something like a duracell battery?
In all seriousness: Anyone who uses AI is being used BY AI, to train it to do their job, so that it can in future replace them.
AI's energy thirst is already competing with humans' need for food and warmth..
Maybe I missed some sarcasm?
How does showing that the algorithms are physiologically addictive i.e. impairing self-control, let Meta (reels) or Alphabet (shorts) "off the hook"? TikTok is probably the worst offender and I'm not sure how it managed to get off with a "confidential settlement", but it doesn't absolve the others.
It's better to blacklist the syscall itself, rather than just the module - that way it works even if your kernel has the module compiled in
Add to your GRUB boot arguments:
initcall_blacklist=algif_aead_init
Is that 120kW of thrust, or are they reporting it in the same way we hear about datacentres - in terms of input power consumption rather than useful work?
Genuine question, because it doesn't say in the linked article and I can't be arsed to watch a damned youtube video
What else would you expect from Google?
If the IA agreed to restrict access for some "reasonable" time e.g. 48 hours after publication?
I would expect to find "back issues" of newspapers in a public library, but I would not expect to find today's paper.
It has become ubiquitous.
Your phone can be triangulated to precise location without GPS. Your licence plate can be tracked by ALPR cameras. Your face can be tracked by face-recognition.. Everything you do online is tracked.
If you have a new car then it is "connected" to the cloud (and, of course, tracked) via 5G, probably monitors your in-car conversations and probably indeed could be remotely disabled or even remotely crashed these days, if you were important enough to bother.
So TPMS sensors being RF-identifiable at 50 metres is a drop in a bucket of shit, it makes no difference now, sadly.
And yet almost every vote on anything everywhere these days seems to result in exactly that: A near-perfect 50-50 split.
That's weird, isn't it Mr Zuckerberg
The reason people made open source projects and devoted time to maintaining them, was purely because it was enjoyable to do so. In the age of AI, that is gone. I no longer want to release my work for the benefit of others, because now it is only feeding this infernal bullshit machine, which will steal my work and sell it as its own. And if that wasn't bad enough, it will send a deluge of slop bugreports and phishing attacks.
AI needs to die. The bubble can't burst soon enough.
Why not make it $666k?
> Technically, the encoded text made its way in some lossy form into the model, but it's not really there either.
Wouldn't that be the same as saying that lossily-encoded audio, an MP3, say, would not impinge copyright either, since it is not an exact copy of the original?
Anyway, it's a case of "The enemy of my enemy is my friend". Pass the popcorn.
And anyone who has ever used a $2 ESP32 microcontroller should know just how plausible this could be...
Those things are scarily powerful for their price (likely a dumping strategy) and could quite easily embed a BLE or WiFi backdoor into anything from a disposable vape (which contains a microphone for your puffing convenience of course) to a car to an industrial robot, and so I would not be at all surprised to find them in Solar inverters.
Quite frankly, with its roughly 1MB of obfuscated/encrypted ROM, and radio in applications that shouldn't need radio, espressif ought to be treated with as much if not more suspicion than Huawei
What a shame
Never mind
I suspect, much of this is driven by Microsoft, who are aggressively pushing features that absolutely nobody wants e.g. ads in the Start menu, Recall, and forced use of a MS-cloud account.
A computer scientist is someone who fixes things that aren't broken.
