The person at the top ultimately has to take responsibility for process faults and staff incompetence of the agencies he oversees.
LOL, bro. Since Reagan sacrificed Oliver North, I have not seen an example of the top taking responsibility for ANYTHING. Oliver North was the blindfold being lifted from my eyes about being on top and responsibility.
Be happy they are doing anything at all. They just don't care. There will be no penalties, no admonishments, no head rolling. If there is any action to be taken, it will happen when it happens. The people who are affected just do not matter at all, so nobody cares about this breach despite being the third major breach in my lifetime concerning my service.
There's no regaining the trust of America's former allies.
Ummm, there is a much more fundamental problem than the trust of allies: There's no regaining the trust of America's citizens. The government has left its own citizens behind!
Is it a problem of critical mass ? Or what ?
Mind share. It takes hundreds of millions of dollars to gather mind share... unless you are "lucky" and find/create a group that is interesting by default.
This fantastical notion that Republicans are better for the economy is just that, fantasy, a myth perpertuated by talk readio and conservative media. It has never been true in our lifetimes.
I guess that depends on your perspective. If you are in the business of collecting money, times have probably never been better in the entire history of the world. If you are a country that expects to stay solvent, then this is one of the worst times in the history of the world.
Essentially, what they are saying is true... from their perspective.
Dude, I can absolutely promise you that prices are as low as they will ever be for the rest of your life. Enjoy.
the frequency of inspections will increase an order of magnitude
How cute. You still think that the Rule of Law applies. I do not think you realize what is happening in the USA right now. All it takes is a little money in the right place and those inspections never happen.
The real problem with AI is that it is not productive. We are spending all of this money, and what are we getting for it? An awkward coding assistant? Yeah no. The real purpose of AI is to monitor YOU, as it already does with Flock cameras.
Ordinary tax payers will be the ultimate victims if history is any guide.
You have no idea how true that statement is. We will be funding our own personal "social monitor" which will give us tickets/citations for violating the morality code. The future looks so gross. 1984 didn't even come close to how horrific this will be. And yet everyone is just sitting here while the noose is surrounding their necks. All of your devices are tattletales. Your car is legally enforced to take action for/against you.
This is not the future I want for others. I want to offer Freedom and Liberty to the future, not chains around their neck forcing them to act.
Bro, any single metric, in isolation, will always favor the mechanical. Think your foot is steady? A machine can do it steadier. Think you pay attention to the road? A machine can pay more attention. Think your reactions are fast? A machine is an order of magnitude faster.
Every single metric, in isolation, a machine compares more favorably.
So why do some humans get better gas mileage than machines in real world long distance driving? Why do some humans have far fewer "close calls"?
It is because humans have something called context. They can see that a hill is coming up and can gain a bit of speed cheaply downhill before going up the hill. They look forward 12 cars ahead and see that the tractor trailer is either slowing down or speeding up. They can see the kid's ball flying into the road, knowing that a kid will be following shortly.
In summary, while machines can ping every metric in isolation better than a human, it can not combine all of those metrics better than a human can. Machine driving is barely able to replace the worst of us. It has a long way to go before it can even compete with the best of us.
I'm all for FSD. Just because it always pays attention and has faster reactions.
If the AI could have context, it wouldn't need to have faster reactions. A machine is generally faster at reacting than I am; however, I am FAR better at NOT getting into situations where a faster reaction time matters. In fact, I have decades and hundreds of thousands of miles to demonstrate this principle. You have a VERY long row to hoe if you will try to convince me to get into a FSD car.
It's simply a myth that "data created by models consumed by other models makes them worse". In practice, it's used to make them vastly better. Models aren't collagers, they're reasoners. Learning the results of reasoning, the results of trial and error, etc helps build a stronger base for more advanced reasoning.
Odd. How much beyond this are we:
https://writings.stephenwolfra...
Because what I read there had NOTHING about "reasoning" and none of the models I have looked at appear to be capable of any sort of reasoning. "AI" as it currently stands is nowhere near the concept of 'reasoning'.
Everyone is focusing on Flock, but there are lots of other companies where law enforcement gets this or similar data from.
Well yeah, of course people are focusing on Flock. Out of all of the various systems, Flock is the one that is most clearly and brightly against the US Constitution. It is blatantly illegal with no possible excuse... and yet it still exists. WTF?
Both Gnome and KDE were busy growing from almost nothing. They were scrappy and usable.
Then, just before 2.0 (?), both projects went insane simultaneously and started talking about how confused users were and how much hand-holding the users needed. The number of processes exploded and started eating up stupid amounts of resources. It started looking a LOT like Microsoft style engineering where everything is fucked up and unmanageable.
Now, we are here. Both projects have never recovered from what happened in the early 2000's. Both projects are a mess. Neither projects gets any support from me.
Linux on the desktop was successfully subverted. How? I don't know. I absolutely blame Microsoft.
Rules will not work when the governing body does not respect rules for itself.
If a train station is a place where a train stops, what's a workstation?
