Comment phrasing (Score 1) 167

it is unclear whether the engineer meant 'is going to do it' or 'have the capability to do it'. There are lots of ways these things *could* cause a lot of damage if we put them in the right position to manage water and electricity for example. And since the people "running" those systems will no longer know how to do anything since they rely on the AI, well, here comes mass death because we put vibe coders in charge of the water supply.

I am surprised somebody hasn't made an AI psychic service yet. With enough people and targeted guessing it should catch many true believers!

I am sure there are more, but I heard a company called 'openAI' has been selling this for quite some time already.

Comment Suggest an alternative? (Score 1) 149

Anyone want to suggest an alternative GPS navigation app for Android that just looks for the simplest route that way the old standalone, unconnected devices used to? Google Maps is so prone to routing me to some alternate route through a small back road with a dangerous left hand turn across five lanes of traffic at the end that I can't trust it to navigate anywhere I have not been before.

Sadly the support for an impeachment is not there. Of course, we have had presidents who did things just as abhorrent, like lie to justify starting a war. But today a long term trends is reaching its apex: winning over anything and everything. As long as 'we' win, no other moral consideration applies.

One third of accessible pages, maybe. From my job I see a lot of slop news and fake blogs, various clickbait scams and such. So I might believe that one third of the pages on the network are AI generated. That is not the same as saying one third of the pages a real person ever intentionally looks at are AI generated.

I believe that was the parent's point. We could not simply build another bridge the same way we built it originally. In the case of a bridge, as you say, newer technology exists and we could build a new bridge with those. In the case of technology to bring humans to the moon, those new technologies do not yet exist. But we could not simply build a 60's era capsule and rocket.
