Comment Firefox has a bad faith argument. (Score 1) 114

Building a company on the back of a monopolist's blood money infusions for that Goliath to illegally maintain their monopoly, is in facrlt, completely unethical and no one cares about the success or failure of that business in the context of the broad powers that Google is afforded otherwise. No one care about Firefox's profits. People care about the advertising and search industry having virtually no competition.

Comment AMD doesn't try to compete in the high end market (Score 0) 83

Since AMD has had its Ryzen resurgence, they have not once attempted to compete with Nvidia on power or performance. They only care about efficiency and cost effectiveness. That gives them ownership of the console market which is valuable but no one in their right mind would chose AMD on PC unless they are building a budget machine. It's no surprise to me that Nvidia commands the majority of the gaming market especially when you factor addition of the bitcoin market and AI markets which also rely on powerful GPUs. Once they decide to compete with power, maybe the tables will finally turn.

Comment Apple loves censorship (Score 0) 28

If people want the company famous for censorship and aversion to controversial topics to make an AI, I expect it will be the most sanitized, politically correct, over correcting service out there. Since Apple censors the mere presence of nudity on their products then I am intreagued to see how erroneous their AI will be. Maybe it will be like talking to an ignorant child.

Comment Double standard (Score 0) 170

Microsoft apparently loses trust with its customers when they reveal an offline history and backup tool which is 100% optional. Meanwhile, Google AI tells the public to commit suicide and poison themselves in the top results for Google searches. Which company of those two lost user trust and was the straw that broke the camels back? Is this real life?

Comment The government will decide how you parent your kid (Score 0) 113

I remember when people said America was a place of freedom. I think when the government seizes control of how an adult raises their child that is antithetical to freedom. I'm not saying institutions can't have rules, but when they interfere with parents wishes then it can be no surprise when people either lose faith in the public school system or the country itself as it slowly noses in on everyday freedoms like what apps you can install and where you are allowed to possess your possessions.
