Because LLMs do not "know" when they are hallucinating. Anyone who understands how LLMs work knows this - except, apparently, Apple's overpaid AI prompt engineers... :-)

Or if it was flat out staged for views.

Which is IMHO the case for almost all of those videos. There is no way people are that dumb.

Did this video show you every person he asked? It's not hard to find a small number of idiots, or even people pretending to be idiots to make for juicy click bait. There's a reason that drug companies can put something on the market because they found one person who claims that Fuckitol has cured their depression, fixed their thinning hair, and makes them shit thunder.

Yes, it does. This seems to be the original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?... Apparently, they also have no clue what a quarter of a century is.

As an over two-decade long Gentoo user, still happily compiling away, I detest the bloatedness of modern package systems. I remember installing a Flatpack for meld on a friend's Ubuntu machine a couple of years back and was appalled by the 1.7GB download.

Here's how meld looks like on a Gentoo system:

Sure, no libraries included, but that was the entire point of libraries - common use. Young programmers...sigh.

With Google's track record on product life times, most likely the Grogu tracking service will be discontinued by the time your luggage arrives at its destination...

And the same happens in Korea, Taiwan, China, and most of East Asia today. At the beginning of a meeting, everyone exchanges business cards. The article appears to have been written by someone who doesn't know much about the topic, didn't bother to do any research, and only writes about his limited personal view of the world.

AQM = Active Queue Management. The basic idea is to probabilistically drop packets before the queue becomes full. This as opposed to drop packets only at the tail when the buffer is already full. Apparently, this is particularly beneficial to reduce the latency of bursty traffic.

Don't forget that South Korea is basically an island (the border to North Korea cannot be crossed). In other words, it is easy to control, quarantine, and track who came in the country. Many island states did significantly better than countries/statea with open borders (US/Europe). It also helps that South Koreans are a lot less obese on average that Floridians. Last but not least, until very recently, everybody in South Korea who came down with a positive test was hospitalized, no matter the symptoms. That greatly helped to minimize the death rate.

He may be able to hear near the 20kHz band and thus hear 'low-frequency' electrical noise. Most of us old farts could hear the high-pitched sound of CRT monitors/TVs when we were young. Maybe Wacom tablets emit sound in that range.

This, plus success is measured as "user engagement." Since the world today revolves around ads, more engagement = more opportunities to show ads = more $$$ = better. If you have to click two times for an action that used to take one click, it appears the user engagement has incrased. Thank you, Google!

He's a she. Otoh, in today's world, one cannot be sure anymore - maybe you did use the right pronouns.

Rental services for home appliances are plentyful in South Korea. Friges, laundry machines, dish washers, A/C, TVs, and air cleaners can be rented for a monthly subscription. I rent a water dispenser. You have to commit to a 3-year contract. There are some benefits such as a service person stopping by every three months to clean filters and perform maintenance. After three years, you can (1) return the device or (2) commit to a new contract for the newest model. It's a wet dream for all hardware manufacturers. At the moment, most people still buy their home appliances, but I am quite sure that rentals will soon become the norm. All manufacturers have to do is raise the prices of selling the unit (which is easy since South Korea doesn't really have an open market due to high Import taxes).

UKRI is a member of Plan S / cOalition S (https://www.coalition-s.org/) that mandates open access by 2021 and is supported by most national funding agencies in Europe (https://www.coalition-s.org/organisations/).

This is a terrible idea. From one of the linked document:
