  • Amazon plunges 9%, continues Big Tech's $1 trillion wipeout as AI bubble fears ignite sell-off

    Jump

  • Nvidia hasn't really fallen yet. Across six months it's pretty flat. Nothing like Microsoft or Amazon which have significant dips.

  • Deleted

    YouTube now blocking background playback on mobile browsers

    Jump

  • Then it seems like a strategic move alongside locking higher playback speeds behind premium as well.

    UI and player control on payed tiers when it makes no technical difference to them as a delivery platform.

  • OpenAI is discontinuing GPT-4o, GPT-4.1 and o4-mini in ChatGPT

    Jump

  • 14 days is not a long time between announcement and removal. This press article picked up on it even later/shorter. (Predictably. It takes time for the info to spread.)

    If these are the models most damaging to vulnerable people their deactivation seems like a good thing though.

    The free chatgpt switches to mini after x prompts in a conversation. What will it switch to now?

  • They leave me, just like in real life :( /s

  • Meet UpScrolled, the anti-censorship TikTok alternative

    Jump

  • We are on Lemmy though. It's certainly relevant to me.

    I don't need it to be a popular app for others when is not for me.

  • Lawsuit claims Meta can see WhatsApp chats in breach of privacy

    Jump

  • The complaint cites “whistleblowers” as having helped bring this information to light, though it doesn’t explain who they are.

    No substance yet.

  • Elon Musk and Sam Altman clashed on X after Musk shared a post about a man who committed a murder-suicide following delusional conversations with ChatGPT

  • When the pig has a public platform it can be important to respond. Not for the other, but for the audience or community. Otherwise, public discourse becomes dominated by pigs.

    (Staying in your analogy. I think pigs are better than that.)

  • NVIDIA Contacted Anna’s Archive to Secure Access to Millions of Pirated Books

    Jump

  • Could you link a or the source?

    The post links an image, and the description links a page with a login screen.

  • The Bots That Women Use in a World of Unsatisfying Men

    Jump

  • Dark humor is a coping mechanism. Venting elsewhere doesn't tell us anything about their communication style.

    I don't see anything that would warrant blaming her here.

    After 20 Years, This Scientist Proved Birds Can Talk and Use Grammar

  • Bandcamp Bans All Music Made with AI

    Jump

  • This is literally how all of law, terms, regulations, and moderation work. The collective or defining party defines a set of rules.

    The rules obviously don't prevent lying or ignoring the rules, but they set the baseline to moderate and act with. Without the rule, Bandcamp would not remove such content, and people could not reclaim their money, and nobody could sue the publishers.

  • Greenland minister tearful as she describes ‘intense pressure’ amid Trump’s threats

    Jump

  • I don't think it's a bad thing. And it's not weakness. It's humanizing. It's the alternative model to showy leaders. Being human and vulnerable can be great for rallying support and empathy. It'll certainly elevate reach of reports about this occurrence.

    As long as actions remain firm and decisive, being human does not change those.

    For a democratic human system vulnerable humans seem like appropriate leaders. As long as they're competent and caring for the right things.

  • Foss Dictation App?

    Jump

  • 'Help is on its way,' Trump tells Iranians as he urges them to keep protesting

    Jump

  • Quite naive either way. Oppression works quite well. And we have history and also multiple current regimes to show for it.

    Internet was cut, we will see who comes out on top when the lights turn back on. The oppression already killing thousands, or the revolting and demonstrating citizens.

    It's not the first time Iran had demos.

  • ICE Recruitment Ads No Longer on Spotify

    Jump

  • The other problem is that music you bought can disappear from your Bandcamp library.

    I wasn't aware of this for quite a while. But the artist can remove the titles and they disappear. Do much for buying, library, owning, and downloading. Better make sure to download and back up.

  • Recommend a Pdf viewer for Windows.

    Jump

  • Why do you need it to be a browser plugin, a program that embeds itself into the webbrowser?

    Firefox does have PDF view and edit with section jumping, comments, and highlighting. What do you mean by “easier”? What's easier than a sidebar table of contents, and a toolbar with highlighting and comment actions? I don't see what could be “easier” than that.

  • Foreign tech workers spurn US as if it were a rabid dog

    Jump

  • I don't have any experience or specific knowledge about it, but I suspect these things may have significant variance between countries or even cities.

    Really unfortunate and sad either way.

  • FOSS MarkDown Editors

    Jump

  • You can install the desktop app and use it without a remote server. (It installs a ‘local server’.) (Apparently. I haven't used it, but that's what the website and their docs say.)

  • How the upcoming AI legislations around the world, like voice cloning prevention and disclosure requeriment of techincal details of models, will affect open source or selfhosted models?

    Jump

  • You mean my second point does? Would you agree with, do you see my first point being independent of the process and act of such a creation?

    The same applies to the creation or training process. If they trained with voice samples or have a collection of voice samples for matching, then those could serve as evidence or indications.

    Jump

  • If you're selling or publishing a voice in a way that impersonates another person without their consent that may be identifiable and prosecutable. "Generate with x voice." 'Talk to x." Etc. Exact lettering is no necessary if intent is evident from pictures or evasive descriptions making an obvious implication.

    If prosecution can find evidence of cloning/training that can also serve as basis.

    In these ways it doesn't have to be about similarity of the produced voice, of quality or alternative people, at all.
