Anyone who has been a pedestrian is also well acquainted with this. Cars watch for and expect other cars, not people (bikes, mopeds, etc). The amount of times I’ve almost been hit by someone who is staring intently at oncoming traffic and flooring it without looking anywhere else is too damn high.

Even if you perfectly solve crashes (doubtful, definitely not something that exists right now), the problems of microplastic pollution from tires and emissions from electricity generation are non-trivial.

God bless all the bots and brainless fucks cheering this clown into the championships of self made problems.

Using generative large language models (LLMs) like those behind ChatGPT and other AI chatbots, the system can brainstorm, select a promising idea, code new algorithms, plot results, and write a paper summarising the experiment and its findings, complete with references.

Wow, sounds even less useful than navel gazing internet comments. Can’t wait for scientific papers to have the exact same problems that a Google search does, where you’re inundated with barely relevant AI slop.

Now, instead of paying Rooney the draft severance amount worth a little more than $25,000, Twitter, which is now called X, has to pay Rooney more than $600,000

lol. lmao.

I can’t think of any audience that would be worse to interact with for Only Fans type content than redditors.

There are definitely idiots, but these idiots don’t get their ideas of how the world works out of thin air. These AI chatbot companies push the cartoon reality that this is a smart robot that knows things hard in their advertisements, and to learn otherwise you have to either listen to smart people or read a lot of text.

The e-commerce giant also gave every affected customer a gift card without requiring proof of destruction or adequately providing public notice or informing customers of actual hazards, as can be required by law to ensure public safety.

I was supposed to get a gift card?? I didn’t get a freakin gift card, I have to destroy it and submit a bunch of evidence to the manufacturer to get a refund.

AI making itself sick and worthless after flooding the internet with trash just gives me a warm glow.

Come off it, not being allowed to be on your cell phone during school hours isn’t the same as KOSA.

The APA document you linked even specifically discusses the effects of social media (what do you think they’re using their phones for?) on mental health.

Concept artist Sam Santala pointed out that you can’t raise a support request to discuss the terms without first agreeing to them. You can’t even uninstall the apps!

Well, at least they made this as easy as possible to challenge in court.

But given the way AI bros behave I suspect this is a smash and grab. The penalties don’t matter if they get to keep the goods in the form of generative AI training.

The biggest problem with AI alt text is that it lacks the ability to determine and add in context, which is particularly important in social media image descriptions. But people adding useless alt text isn’t exactly a new thing either. If people treat this as a starting place for adding an alt text description and not a “click it and I don’t have to think about it” solution I’m massively in support of it.

I’m not using “AI” in web searches no matter how much any VC bro’s golden parachute depends on it, sorry. Refusing to partake or even using tools to filter out LLM trash are perfectly fine ways to adapt to search engines leaning on AI hype to try to convince you that their inability to combat SEO spam is good, actually.

If you live near a regional transportation hub it probably won’t make a difference on your delivery times. We dropped prime when our “1 day” deliveries kept turning in 3 day deliveries and never saw a difference.

And honestly a lot of the stuff I used to get on there isn’t even cheaper on Amazon anymore. Half the time if I check the manufacturer website they’re having a sale or have no shipping costs or cover returns longer, something like that. YMMV, you know your situation and needs better than me.

Apologies for being so sketchy on the details but I really can’t remember too many of the specifics. I’m fairly certain it wasn’t that his family name came first, because that’s fairly straightforward. I think the author might have been from an east or southeast Asian culture? I think that part of the essay might have been about how addressing him as Mr. Firstname is actually more formal than Mr. Lastname, even though Firstname is not his family name. I don’t want to keep guessing on more details about how the naming conventions were different because I’m probably going to get it wrong, I have fairly low confidence in what I remember from it.

Because I have been completely unable to find it again and this seems like a relevant place to ask: does anyone have a link to an article similar to this, that I believe might have been titled ‘My First Name is My Last Name’? This is made extra hard to look up because I’ve forgotten the specific culture and details it’s talking about, but it’s about the same basic issue with cultural conventions on names.

Especially in context, where it’s contrasting QA testers and ‘normal’ people.

It would probably take longer to prompt ChatGPT to write this than it would to just write it. It’s two short paragraphs.

Not only is T-Mobile using these models when customers call in, but we’ve heard via multiple tips that T-Mobile is planning to use AI learning to predict why a customer might be visiting a store, too. There has allegedly been discussion of using the T-Mobile app to detect a customer’s account when they enter a store, and have AI predict why they might be visiting.

God help me if I have to worry about some issue with my phone service being even more annoying to get fixed because the AI spits out I’m really there for an unrelated reason and just need to be cajoled into admitting it.
