I agree with you in general, I think the problem is that people who do understand Gen AI (and who understand what it is and isn’t capable of why), get rationally angry when it’s humanized by using words like these to describe what it’s doing.

The reason they get angry is because this makes people who do believe in the “intelligence/sapience” of AI more secure in their belief set and harder to talk to in a meaningful way. It enables them to keep up the fantasy. Which of course helps the corps pushing it.

I ran into this problem with a dual boot of windows 10 and bazzite where I wanted to recoup more drive space for Linux but couldn’t load gparted to allocate more space because windows kept trying to claim that space.

Even though this wasn’t the exact problem I was looking to solve it did work for me.

When you go to install Bazzite can you make a separate EFI partition manually for it? Because that’s the part that I think might help you.

If not, can you back up the windows install and reformat?

Is this the issue? And does the video help?

I didn’t. But I also can’t say I’ve been paying attention.

GiGo.

My main concerns are mostly to do with the fact that Google in my experience has always had the benefit of enticing software and services that are extremely invasive but also very convenient (even if we remove IoT from the table for a moment). This is mostly due to how invasive Google Play Services is, and how invasive the Google app has been since the first iterations of Google Assistant (Google Now). I’m concerned that even those of use who have done what we can to turn off Gemini and not use Generative AI are still compromised regardless because big tech has a choke hold on the services we use.

So I suppose I’m trying to understand what the differences are in how these two types of technology compromise cyber security.

I assumed based on the subtext requesting we read the article that the contents of said article said that we should trust it because it’s constantly changing and challenging itself.

However I think some people might be inclined to downvote specifically because this kind of headline is basically clickbait. I’m not sure they’re wrong in doing so.

Pre-Generative AI, lots of companies had AI/Algorithmic tools that posed a risk to personal cyber security (Google’s Assistant and Apple’s Siri, MS’s Cortana etc).

Is the stance here that AI is more dangerous than those because of its black box nature, it’s poor guardrails, the fact that it’s a developing technology, or it’s unfettered access?

Also, do you think that the “popularity” of Google Gemini is because people were already indoctrinated into the Assistant ecosystem before it became Gemini, and Google already had a stranglehold on the search market so the integration of Gemini into those services isn’t seen as dangerous because people are already reliant and Google is a known brand rather than a new “startup”.

It died a long long time before this. The enshittification directly started back in the early 2000’s when one of the owners basically usurped the whole company. Which of course lead to mods quitting en masse. After that it went downhill and that downhill trend continued. Then it got bought out by the Israeli’s, and the AI art injection was them trying to prevent the site from going under.

Nothing about the site is what it was.

I’ve never had this happen on a pixel before. I’ve owned all the pixel phones of some variant except the 4 and the 6. I haven’t bought a pixel pro 10 yet but my husband has one.

It’s only happened to me a couple of times since the last update but a couple of times is too many.

The box was there. Where the keyboard is supposed to be. But the keyboard was not there. I couldn’t get the box where they keyboard should be to go away with gesture controls, and I couldn’t get the keyboard to actually display. I restarted and it was still happening in every app (including Google’s apps). It persisted when I restarted in safe mode so I went in and force stopped the Gboard app and then cleared storage and cache. That did the trick and the fix persisted when I restarted into regular android again.

Does this account for the random bug where my keyboard didn’t populate in any app that persisted through a restart until I went in and force stopped it and cleared its cache? Asking for a friend.

It’s not clear that the except is a quote. No quotation marks. No vertical bar denoting quotation. The ellipses at the very start of the first sentence.

Generative AI LLM’S? No. GiGo Counters? Yes.

People who live in third world countries like the US who don’t have Internet at home/internet isn’t available to them because it’s not profitable for the company providing for that area.

And before you say phone, you have to have service to receive or make a phone call. There are places in this country that don’t have either.

We have a wireless Android Auto dongle. And it takes an age to auto connect. Not to mention the problems with it still wanting us to pull over and put the car in park to switch, something I thought would be circumvented when I bought it but somehow is not. Usually it’s the person in the passenger seat trying to change something and not being able to. I’m not advocating for distracted driving. I’m pointing out that someone else in the vehicle who’s not driving can’t interact to change certain things even though it’s perfectly safe for them to do so.

It’s a Honda. But that’s exactly the point I’m trying to make here. With both car play and Android Auto I have issues but they’re down to how the manufacturer chose to implement each. Car manufacturers deliberately hamstrung these features and still didn’t get what they wanted.

I have equally bad experiences with both Android Auto and Apple Carplay. I don’t really want either and am fine with what I’ve got (only 1/3 of the cars I own even has Carplay/Android Auto). I mostly dislike how it’s been implemented with “safety controls” that require the phone to be plugged into the infotainment center in some cars and the requirement that I only connect it while at a stop with the car in park. If someone is driving with me and they want to change to their phone I have to pull over and that’s stupid.

The infotainment centers themselves with their stupid touch screens and lack of buttons are where my real problems start, and the end with the tracking BS and telemetry data. You can keep the new cars. I don’t want them.

Lack of context for what was being discussed, mostly. No joke I read this without context and was very confused (and I had already read a similar article about this event).

It did what now? What the hell is this title?

“We Let AI Run Our Office Vending Machine. It Lost Hundreds of Dollars.”

Is the actual title. What gives?
