Similar to the crypto hype. Adoption is imminent, bro. Just a few more months, bro. Please, bro

This should be illegal. We had webcams like this 20 years ago. But Nintendo customers seem to enjoy outdated hardware. It’s a tradition at this point

That’s an excellent idea, particularly because that service would use AI against the type of people who typically shill or welcome AI products. Let’s build more of those.

This is a train wreck from beginning to end, with only one winner: Trump.

It was stupid to call for an impeachment vote in the first place, because it had zero chance to succeed. It’s quite lame as a symbolic gesture too, because a failure is a failure in the books no matter what the intentions are. And you put your own party members in a position where they can only lose either way. This is terrible from a political strategy standpoint unless your explicit goal is to divide the party, which in turn weakens the party even more. A sad and unnecessary shit show all the way. The only hope left is that Trump dies laughing.

Hello??

That’s a very long answer to my snarky little comment :) I appreciate it though. Personally, I find LLMs interesting and I’ve spent quite a while playing with them. But after all they are like you described, an interconnected catalogue of random stuff, with some hallucinations to fill the gaps. They are NOT a reliable source of information or general knowledge or even safe to use as an “assistant”. The marketing of LLMs as being fit for such purposes is the problem. Humans tend to turn off their brains and to blindly trust technology, and the tech companies are encouraging them to do so by making false promises.

Well, they are quite bad from a UI/accessibility perspective. While looking nice and fancy, it can be difficult to read the contents and makes it harder to identify information. That’s totally fine as an optional feature for those who like it, but the default should be a clean and easily accessible design.

It’s funny how people always quickly point out that an LLM wasn’t made for this, and then continue to shill it for use cases it wasn’t made for either (The “intelligence” part of AI, for starters)

We had transparent UI elements before and decided they were shit. Am I the only one still alive to remember?

I recently found my first mobile phone model in a museum. I know the feeling.

TBH I can wait for these fucks to find out that their kindergarden approach to programming won’t work. I’ll charge a premium to fix their shit later.

What year is it?

You can just use powershell. It’s that easy. /s

Catholics make up only about 25% of the US population. US Americans also seem to have their own flavor of Christianity, where being nasty and cruel to your neighbor and killing everything you don’t like weirdly is part of their beliefs.

I know it’s probably necessary to reiterate these points to people who still don’t get it, over and over again. But as someone with a functioning brain I find these “stating the obvious” headlines very tiring.

Also the stakes are quite high to become the greatest war criminal of all time.

Of course not. Visas can be revoked at any time for any reason. Why do people always expect some kind of benefit for their donations? /s

Finally some closure after all those years

little choice for amazon the logistic company

Depends on where you live. Here in Germany we have a few alternatives, like “Otto” and a few others with specialisations like electronics. Some of them have a marketplace just like Amazon and they even offer the same cheap chinese crap that Amazon has to offer. So you could feel right at home.

Maybe vassals is too strong-worded to describe the phenomenon. But living in western Europe I have firsthand experience in the relationship between the US and my country in the past decades. The US offered protection to the “free world”, but of course this comes at a price. The US had to be regarded as a role model in many ways, and everything that came out of the US, was copied and implemented verbatim. Which made the US the de facto puppet master and they really liked that role. This relationship was carefully orchestrated and nurtured by the US from the end of WW2 onwards, and the effect was that European countries embraced this strategy and viewed the US in a positive light, no obvious power play or bullying necessary. But the fact is, there always was a strong dependency on the US, and this was by US design.

Trump doesn’t realize that there was good reason for choosing such a “soft” strategy, he can’t because bullying is his only available tactic. He will soon find out that his perceived european vassal states don’t respond as well to hostility and blackmail as he might have expected.
