Is it just me or is a doctor who can't figure out how to turn off an audio setting scary? What happens if his shoe becomes untied on the way to the operating theater? Does he call tech support?

That might be true, except everyone who has been paying attention knows that all they have to do is buy enough Trumpcoins and the problem will dry up and blow away without fanfare.

Or we could point to the confounding factors they obviously did not address in the study, say "this study is trash no one should ever refer to or even read" and move on. You don't necessarily need a new study to invalidate a study, and this is one of those cases where you don't.

The real killer app for AI will be when someone creates an AI that grovels over all the millions of low-effort AI slop games out there and flags just the interesting/fun/novel ones for your attention. Otherwise you'll never find the gems amongst all the dross.

Remember... Trump says anyone who does not refer to AI as ‘super intelligence’ is ‘THE ENEMY'

(*sigh*)

It's too bad you don't know dick about luddites.

"Leaving aside the fact that you don't know the difference between an LLM and a frontier AI model"

One thing is a subset of the other. That was a weird attempt, and it failed.

We didn't used to carry telescreens in our pockets, so that's different.

Before streaming it wasn't feasible to deliver different media to different viewers, either. They all got the same things from the same channels.

TBF the stupid Nazis have been around. They were just a little quieter most of the time, except when they were burning a cross, or dragging someone behind a pickup.

Maybe they can get compilers for some more architectures first

The Emmys are advertising. If fewer people consume them, that's a loss.

I wish I had a local PBS station. I get one broadcast with three digital channels, at least one of which seems Christian and all of which are shit. And since they split their bandwidth three ways, they all look like shit, too.

No, edge is the least safe browser. It's even worse.

They are arresting and sometimes deporting people who met all of the requirements. They are also doing international family separation, and forcing children to appear before a judge without legal counsel. Shit like that is how we know that maggots only actually think about the children when they're horny.

Don't encourage the enshification, and spread the word and actively discourage it. Long live projects like Jellyfin, and on-premise NAS devices, and even stuff like Pianobar. Don't fall into the trap of walled gardens.
