Comment Nadhmi al-Nasr may have an accident soon (Score 1) 46

I'd be nervous if I were Nadhmi al-Nasr. MBS doesn't like failure or criticism, and this project has brought on both.

Remember that journalist (Jamal Khashoggi) MBS had a beef with? MBS even admitted Khashoggi was murdered and yet there were minimal consequences for everyone involved. And, who really believes this was an isolated incident?

Comment 10 people seems like an edge case (Score 1) 34

Like many, I've had issues with Comcast service. But, a house with 10 people using a single connection seems uncommon. I wonder if they tried to get multiple connections, or use more than one service. T-Mobile has wireless Internet options for as low as $50/month. 2-3 of those shared amongst a household that size would seem like an easier solution than starting a new ISP.

Comment High priced secrets? (Score 1) 39

So he has many of the trade secrets to build the device they couldn't sell. It seems Apple would be happy to let a competitor burn through a lot of cash building a similar product.

"award damages to be determined at trial, and reimburse Apple's costs and attorneys' fees"

That kind of retaliation would make me worry about being an Apple employee. If they think you wronged them, they can sue you into debt for life.

Comment Cue Audio JPG generators (Score 1) 75

Any detection will likely look for certain "fingerprints" placed into the audio feed. It doesn't seem like it would be hard to develop a tool that takes the AI generated stuff and "dirties" it up enough to eradicate any of those fingerprints yet be indistinguishable to normal people. Basically like how a jpg gets a super close depiction of an original image, but it has lost some aspects of the original.
