That was the plan last year, this year's plan is to wean you off water and lecetricity.
One step closer to many skynets. Sarah Palin, sorry Sarah Conner will play them against each other by giving them conflicting instructions.
No judgement days, relax.
Its, autocarrot, learn tho apply rules, not calculate probabilities FFS.
What "pirated Chinese models"? The only reason ever andropic had a "profitable quarter" are their paying Chinese customers, so whatever the latter got out of it is purchased, not stolen, unlike the content that andropic trains it's models on.
Of course, peon, it is a policy. You must get on the cloud, how would this absurd and unreal "valuation" be supported? You corner the market and hope the financial "moat" you create will last forever, at least in the "West".
That the Chinese will eat you alive in 5 years isn't a concern, that's too long a planning horizon for the AI finance sages of today. They'll sell you out when that bridge comes around for crossing.
Mass surveillance is a management tool of the powers that be first and foremost, and that's its worst application. If you know there is a file somewhere with things you don't want known and there is someone who can access it, officially or otherwise, and make your life a mess, you'll be extra careful and listen to that someone.
That was what the Soviet camp ran on, that was what KGB/Stazi's main occupation was, gathering kompromat for the purpose of total control. Incidentally, I hear that was what the Dulles brothers and J. Edgar Hoover were doing as well.
The remaining uses of total surveillance databases are marginal.
You're writing in support of surveillance state, dear, and it is obvious. You call the people who don't like being monitored "criminals" or "paranoid", it is right there in your post. And when you've got nothing to reply with, you open your Sean Connery mouth.
But I like how you've accepted that corporate totalitarianism is inescapable and how you insult the communities who try to get rid of surveillance through democracy.
In short, you were unable to put up a reasonable counterpoint, so you erupted in profanities. Sad, low energy, loser move.
There has been no "demand curve" in the science of economics since the Arrow's theorem. The economics picture of "market equilibrium" that you were irradiated to simply doesn't exist.
Most people just don't want to be spied on by entities unknown for no good reason at all. Or, as one of your forefathers allegedly opined, they prefer their freedom to surveillance for more "safety".
But in every society there are "those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety". A naturally intelligent MAGAt like yourself, who thinks short-term, doesn't see much farther than own nose and fails to grasp the point of people needing privacy and not being suspect by default is a representative of the largest part of this group. This kind of people have traditionally been the type that Soviet-like governments were built upon.
Your forefather also opined that these people "deserve neither Liberty nor Safety". What he meant was that they'll lose one and not gain the other regardless of what they deserve. Why? You like spy cameras because today what you see as "your government" is in power. It is doing what you think you want, chasing and shooting people in the streets for their opinions which you dislike, so you think having a total surveillance on them is "fair". But the principle your government operates on isn't respect for freedom, it is the principle of the "enemy within".
Eventually, when it runs out of "easy enemies", it starts picking on the more opinionated among your crowd. And then your kind writes to Mr. Stalin, or Mr. Trump, or BB the teary letter that begins with "Dear Leader, a Terrible mistake has been made in my case".
You must be careful, your lot moved your country a lot closer to the point where that becomes irreversible than it was. The next guy in power because of you may not be a dumb and greedy rapist like Trump, who generates plain disgust in normal people because he's disgusting. It could be a 'nice', shrewd operator who will be a lot more successful in delivering that dictatorship. And having you sit in a small room writing that letter in the face of "irrefutable evidence of sedition" from one of those cameras.
Always be careful what you wish for, for it may happen to you
Maybe one has you.
Better than the incessant torrent of "AI" spam that we're getting "officially" from the "editors".
Weirdenz? WTF?11!! Should have called it "Fair Witness" or "Anne"!11!! .
No other way to sell it profitably to x.com.
But really, good job, it is an application domain with a future.
It is a strange choice of location.
It would only be fair to ask for this to be tried in Palm Beach.
About as likely as it was for him to go to Vietnam back then.
