I work at a tech company, and I am finding the whole AI thing really tiresome. It’s infected our work. It makes me want out, but I honestly don’t even know what I would do. I’ve only been in this industry for 6 ish years, but the thought of starting from scratch again seems daunting.

Looking at other jobs in the same area, they all want some kind of AI involvement now. It seems almost mandatory

You can see how Curio’s website could be mistaken for satire. The “girl” in the promotional video is Grimes, who has prominent “alien scar” tattoos and is inexplicably kneeling next to a knife.

I had to reread that part

Dang well that sucks. I had just moved over from mangadex.

Is there a preferred alternative?

I was frustrated that Canadian news outlets were downplaying who he really was. They’re also saying people who are celebrating his death should be ashamed.

He contributed to death, ignorance, misinfo, and leading youth into the alt right pipeline. People should be able to participate in politics without risk of their life.

People should also participate in good faith and shouldn’t be allowed to lie or steal. In a just system, these people would be held accountable by the courts. People also should not be allowed to advocate for things that directly or indirectly cause hatred, racism, discrimination, etc.

I don’t feel ashamed for feeling okay with this situation. At most, I feel bad for his kids, but I felt bad for them regardless of this situation.

Idk man. It’s dumb

On my last phone, Facebook was installed by default and could only be deactivated. It was super dumb

I appreciate your optimism a lot. I always thought a UBI and AI would do something like this, but recently, I’m increasingly doubting that we would be able to achieve this without greedy people using it against the masses. I want your outcome to come true

Least expensive employees? Does he mean salary wise? I was always under the impression software devs were paid well

I’ve heard of this kind of AI usage a few times now and it seems so smart. You’re learning by teaching, but also being trained in AI literacy and the downfalls of AI. It encourages critical thinking and genuine learning at the same time.

The reddit blackout got me off reddit. Well, that and reddit getting rid of third party apps and enshitifying the platform

And investors cheered

At this point I think the cat is out of the bag. The internet isn’t private anymore. At the same time I question what happens if we start to self censor. On one hand I think it keeps a person safe, on the other hand I think it could just start to let authoritarian or fascists take a stronger hold when they’re the loudest voices.

Thank you for the information! Yeah, I don’t really trust them. They feel flimsy and unreliable for most things. Sometimes, they have their moments where they seem actually helpful.

I hate their usage overall, I just figure if I need it to help me land a job at some point, I should probably just have some extra options ready.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is there a good place to figure out how to run LLM’s locally? Seems safer than entering personal data onto a server somewhere

The Patriot Act wasn’t enough already?

Good grief. It makes me sad that the internet is becoming a major source for data harvesting. It goes against what I think it should be about. Free, open, knowledge sharing.

Took a quick look for coverage in various news outlets, but it seems like they’re glossing over the breach of privacy and focusing on keeping the border safe lol.

Either that or I suck at looking for coverage in mainstream media. Most of what I found was from June

Does anyone else find it ironic that the employees were hesitant to do this? I’m sure many of them have their reasons for working that job. But it seems funny when AI is built off of stolen data, and then the employees are like “hey wait a minute, though. Don’t use my data.”

No idea what happens nowadays also probably depends on your location too, but a friend of mine downloaded fallout 4 when it released and his isp disabled their houses internet until he went to a web page and checked off a box saying “i have deleted the following file(s) from my machine” lol

It was a tame outcome relatively speaking, but it could have been worse.
