The day will come that an AI will learn something that we did not deliberately teach it. When an AI is able to improve its own code, it won't be bound by the limitations of its human creator. It's only a question of when.

Can a non-biological entity feel desire? Can it want to grow and become something more than what it is? I think that's a philosophical question and not a technological one.

Don't agree at all and I think that's a morally dangerous approach. We're looking for a scientific definition of "desire" and "want". That's almost certainly a part of "conscious" and "self aware". Philosophy can help, but in the end, to know whether you are right or not you need the experimental results.
Experiments can be crafted in such a way as to exclude certain human beings from consciousness.
One day, it's extremely likely that a machine will say to us "I am alive. I am awake. I want..." and whether or not it's true is going to be increasingly hard to determine.

Only if we define consciousness to be a state of awareness only attainable by human beings.
An LLM can't suddenly decide to do something else which isn't programmed into it.
Can we?
It's only a matter of time until an AI can learn to do something it wasn't programmed by us to do.

LUL! That is a perfect example of voice UI being ambiguous. I've had these discussions for decades but never had a good example. I'm cribbing that.
> "Computer, fire torpedo bays 1 through 5!" takes a lot longer than me pressing the button
Yup, as much as I love ST:TNG I've had that criticism for decades. Voice UI is HORRIBLY SLOW, not to mention ambiguous.
Why the hell wouldn't the captain just press a button to raise shield instead of wasting time to say "Raise Shields", waiting for Worf to listen, and wait for them to actually execute it. That's at last 1 - 2 seconds of wasted time.
Also, wouldn't the computer monitor this and automatically raise shields? I'm sure its reaction time is helluva lot faster then humans!
yes it makes me question the entire article
MAC addresses don't leave the local network when using TCP/IP. I don't understand this part of the article.
AI *is* replacing people. If you haven't seen this, you aren't paying attention or don't have insight into whats happening in businesses. Most people only work at one company so it's understandable. I consult for over 200 businesses per year and AI is absolutely replacing people right now.
in what legal way would a phone call be any different than an MFA challenge as far as impacting whether a phone could be subpoenaed? both involve another side with exhaustive logging. neither provide your employer with any access to your device. if you use your phone to place a call, you've exposed it just as much as using it to do MFA imho
it doesn't support "phish resistant" MFA with push notifications
we allow users to use their personal devices for MFA as a convenience, and we provide physical Yubikeys to users that prefer not to use their personal device for MFA. we do not provide phones or require anyone to use their own for anything. the vast majority of users opt to use their own device rather than carry the yubikey
yes this is the best technique we've found so far, but some users still rush to install a fake one or seem to struggle with basic reading comprehension.
the point is that this problem shouldn't exist in the first place
that would be nice but our corporate phone system doesn't do SMS and I'm not of fan of having the techs use their personal devices for work purposes. plus users tend to bother them directly if they know their cell #. we really aren't a bunch of idiots, this is just not a simple problem to solve
we are IT. we aren't involved in making job offers. we just get a ticket to onboard Bob Smith
