I've always been surprised by cost numbers mentioned in services and donation requests.
I run my own cheap server which has game servers running in the past, and some other services. I've not run any busy services though or fediverse content so I never felt like I could make a reasonable assessment. Just be surprised.
However U.S. law puts the copyright in the hands of the creator of it, NOT Reddit.
Users give Reddit a license to handle and publish the comments under their terms. I don't remember the specific terms. It may allow Reddit to pursue this, specifically when the content is being consumed from Reddit.
It does show that it can be a useful tool, though.
Here, the security researcher was evaluating it and stumbled upon a previously undiscovered security bug. Obviously, they didn't let the AI create the bug report without understanding it. They verified the answer and took action themselves, presumably analyzing, verifying, and reporting in a professional and respectful way.
The cURL AI spam is an issue at the opposite side of that. But doesn't really tell us anything about capabilities. It tells us more about people. In my eyes, at least.
Should posts like this have [Satire] added to the title?
I'd prefer them to be obvious. Just like we title posts to describe them, and put them into communities, mark them nsfw or not, whether it's satire or not is an important differentiator.
‘Order from Amazon’: How tech giants are storing mass data for Israel’s war
The Israeli army is using Amazon’s cloud service to store surveillance information on Gaza’s population, while procuring further AI tools from Google and Microsoft for military purposes, an investigation reveals.
Pocket has helped millions save articles and discover stories worth reading. But the way people save and consume content on the web has evolved, so we’re channeling our resources into projects that better match browsing habits today. Discovery also continues to evolve; Pocket helped shape the curated content recommendations you already see in Firefox, and that experience will keep getting better. Meanwhile, new features like Tab Groups and enhanced bookmarks now provide built-in ways to manage reading lists easily.
What's the discovery replacement they are referring to here?
a user pretending to espouse paranoid delusions received reinforcement from GPT-4o, which praised their supposed clarity and self-trust
This may be the next big sabotage of society.
Algo-driven unregulated social media pushed negative views, division, misinformation, while opening the platforms to manipulative content producers and connecting positive as well as negative influences (like finding communities of extremism).
If unregulated AI interfaces get pushed to people, they will not critically verify, but be confirmed in their own and the AIs biases, without any obvious indicators that this is happening.
Good thing we see some kinds of positive regulation. Like them pulling this model, interfaces adding disclosures of AI and uncertainty, and regulation by law.
uBlock Origin still functions the same. I doubt it'll die in the foreseeable future because there's interest in it, and moreso than in NoScript (my assumption anyway).
The uBlock Origin introduced https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home to cover the manifest v3. It's a separate software. The original uBlock Origin remains functional like before.
Regarding the earlier point, this lite FAQ entry sounds to me like the main author is more committed to origin than lite.
Challenging unbalanced mindsets may be important or even necessary, though.
