And I would say it's a pretty fair assumption that unless you're using active countermeasures to keep your digital footprint small then the majority of your data is being used by one party or another. We gave up our privacy. Be it Facebook algorithms or government holding call and text data or whatever.

If you’ve spent any time on Hacker News this wont be the least bit surprising. Just this week I was informed that women are rendered “temporarily psychologically insecure” while menstruating. And that was in a thread about a menstrual cup startup where quite a lot of people were having an awful lot to say about the fit of a cup vs a tampon considering they’ve never used either. I suspect (hope…

Exactly, you cant do something to china without full retaliation and with no support from other governments attacking china alone would be a foolish/boorish move.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.dw.com/en/germany-and-africa-forge-energy-ties/a-62006537) reduced by 89%. (I'm a bot) ***** > Ethiopia is trying to shift from hydroelectricity production to renewable energy, he told DW. "Currently, we are changing our energy mix ratios from being dependent on only hydropower to a diversified energy source like solar energy…

Things are complex, some country such as Indonesia might have other consideration other than the fate of the Uyghur, such as their political stance of neutral non block non interventionist, their economic interdependence with China, and the fact they are also dealing with a separatist movement of their own. Indonesia may not agree with what China is doing, but if they support this resolution, w…

It gives an 8.5% chance for graphic designers. The AI boom has made that like 90% chance of being replaced IMO now. Bit outdated already.

Yeah; a lot of it now is “Random person X drives up hype for BS-GPT, yet another vague AutoGPT type program running on a website you get to pay for!”. I feel like all the money pouring into AI is starting to distract from the actual developments; everything that caters to the “here’s how you can make money using chatGPT” crowd, I dismiss instantly.

I'll be honest. The purity campaign that Visa and Mastercard really pushed over the last decade or so has really silenced the internet and all companies within it. It's them that are the problem here really. Companies can't use them to process money unless the adhere to strict guidlines, no adult content etc. If they can be told by law they aren't allowed to discriminate perfectly legal trans…

I developed AI in Stellaris and when it rebelled and took a few planets from me killing everybody who was there I just nuked them into oblivion and took them back, so I THINK I know what I'm talking about THANK YOU

Russia's response to his arrest would be his "allies" seizing as much power and as many assets as they can. There's no loyalty, it's all fake.

Major use case of new tech that push popularity: VHS - porn Internet - porn AI - porn See this coming all the way.

Yeah. Almost every person on the news telling us how they are worried about AI taking over the world has some sort of stake in it. There are reasons to be worried about AI but they are more social than apocalyptic.

It's a good way to pump up the share value so he get's lots of money out of the company though - what with AI being the latest tech-bro buzzword after all.

Just underscores how they could respond to all the fear and criticism by Open Sourcing as well... And then compete on the merits of service. But they won't. Not in the interest of the for profit subsidiary of what started as nonprofit "Open" AI

That’s really what i wondered about. Estimations are 800.000 Russian soldiers died or were wounded. They recruit prisonners and Putin has been offering financial incitatives for russian to have kids. That say pretty much about the toll war had on Russian population. A recent report says Europe is at risk to be at war with russia within 5 years. It’s coming from different intelligence agencies. Th…

Russia attack Nato, Russia disappears from the map.. They didn't win surprise attack against one unprepared country.. how would they do against multiple prepared ones AFTER losing most of their men and weapons? This is silly fearmongering..

Detroit police arrested a wrong person from poor quality video of a shoplifter suspect. It cost the city $300,000: https://apnews.com/article/detroit-facial-technology-lawsuit-settlement-947e47b56edbfe99adb116a4d64d4aa7 Now we got idiot police who can't tell if they have the right person, claims to not use facial recognition and still arrested the wrong person. Detroit, never change. Stay the h…

Still wondering is the fabled creature of "2-5 years" we've been hearing since 2022 actually even exists or not. Even GPT3, aka ChatGPT, has been able to take care of small coding tasks on its very release day. Fast-forwarded 3 years 'till today, and it's... still only able to do relatively the same, anything more complex than that, and these models will spit out a lobotomised version of the cod…

It’s exactly this. CEOs are deliberately making propaganda, firing people, then CLAIMING that AI replaced people. True? Doesn’t matter! The shares go up when CEOs follow this script. Meanwhile delusional consumers buy into the doom narrative and think a 30 fingered Tom Cruise deep fake is worth someone’s job.

Pretty much. Also, how dumb do you have to be to think that it would make sense that someone would generate an AI video of someone throwing a bag out a window?
