  • America hasn't won a war (or conflict even) since WW2.

    He's a man shaped entity with the brain of a dementia riddled geriatric because that's exactly what he is. That man has so many health conditions the only reason he's not dead is they're fighting over who gets to kill him.

  • Instagram says it will alert parents if their teen repeatedly searches for terms related to self-harm or suicide in the US, the UK, Canada, and Australia

    Jump
    1. This means they had to verify my teenager is a kid. I don't want it collecting information on my child.
    2. This means that they also have verified I'm the parent or legal guardian of said child meaning whether I use Instagram or not they are collecting information on me, and I don't want that either.
    3. The algorithm for Instagram is a major direct contributor to suicidal ideation and this does nothing to fix that.

    No thank you. Burn it with fire.

  • Robot Vacuums Privacy

    Jump

  • So, whether they store the information or not, the information may not be encrypted while being processed (lots of IoT tech doesn't encrypt data streams, and some of them don't even have a firewall between them and the internet).

    There's no good reason for them to need Internet access to sweep or mop your house.

  • FBI Got Grok to Hand Over Prompts Used to Create Nonconsensual Porn

    Jump

  • You mean Xitter doesn't hand over data without a warrant when it can harm their products?

  • Slick came to Wild Heart Ranch in 2014 after being found completely submerged in oil. Here is his before and after.

    Jump

  • Slick went from "you and the horse you road in on" to "has seen some *ish" in the span of these photos.

    I'm glad Slick is doing okay now.

  • Or just ignorant.

  • Discord will require a face scan or ID globally for full access next month

    Jump

  • We both know that this isn't about stopping criminals or underaged users. That's just a pretext to conveniently use as cover for their real reason which is surveillance.

  • Don't threaten him with a good time!

  • Study finds declining perceptions of safety of COVID-19, flu, and MMR vaccines in the United States

    Jump

  • And potentially inhibiting both the manufacture of the COVID vaccine and MRNA vaccine research as a whole.

  • He has no business being this creatively talented.

  • 'A Big F*ck You to Big Tech': New Jersey Residents Defeat AI Data Center

    Jump

  • Not exactly. Princeton NJ and the surrounding areas are quite wealthy. The wealthy/elites have decided they don't want their places polluted or to subsidize the costs of these data centers. It certainly wasn't Newark and Camden that fought and won this.

  • Before We Blame AI For Suicide, We Should Admit How Little We Know About Suicide

    Jump

  • While I don't agree that AI alone caused anything (because there had to be some instability there for the words of the AI to manipulate, I can absolutely agree that use of the AI is a very apparent contributing factor in the cause.

    With suicide you need some very specific circumstances.

    1. Opportunity. A time and place where the person can't or won't be stopped from the attempt.
    2. A feeling of pain or helplessness that eclipses that person's ability to deal with or find and outlet for.
    3. Means/mode. A bus, a rope and anchor point, a weapon.
    4. Intent.

    I think the last one is where things get a bit murky from a legal standpoint.

    Barring accidental suicide, what can legally be considered as responsible for causing suicide is limited. If you encourage a suicidal person to kill themselves, you as the other person had intent to harm, even if you didn't mean for them to actually follow through, or believe that they would.

    My fear is that these legal battles won't result in the AI being held accountable because they're not able to have intent.

    My bigger fear is that the companies who are responsible are not going to be held responsible for the same reason a fun manufacturer isn't when someone sticks the barrel in their mouth and pulls the trigger. The argument that it's a "tool" that's been "misused" is gonna be thrown around a lot.

    I wish I could believe we'd get more stringent regulations out of such lawsuits. But I just don't have that kind of hope.

  • Cyberpunk platformer Replaced catches another delay for "final tweaks" based on demo feedback

  • Cyberpunk platformer "Replaced". . .

  • Or anyone he could use. That's the thing about espionage. You don't have to be in on it to benefit the people taking advantage of you.

  • Ars Technica Pulls Article With AI Fabricated Quotes About AI Generated Article

    Jump

  • Saying Generative AI lies is attributing the ability to reason to it. That's not what it's doing. It can't think. It doesn't "understand".

    So at best it can fabricate information by choosing the statistically best word that comes next based on its training set. That's why there is a distinction between Generative AI hallucinations and actual lying. Humans lie. They tell untruths because they have a motive to. The Generative AI can't have a motive.

  • Ring calls off partnership with police surveillance provider Flock Safety

    Jump

  • They may have done, but if you're referring to the kidnapped woman who's footage was pulled from the backend after they said she didn't have a subscription, she had a Google Nest Camera.

    I wouldn't doubt that Amazon does this too but Google is just as bad if not worse.

  • 🔥AI wrongly tells user a fire alarm is just a drill

    Jump

  • My hope is they did this after they evacuated. But honestly could go either way.

  • Umwelt - Wikipedia

    Jump

  • I always wondered if the shape and size of your ears and nose etc change the way you register smells and hear sounds. Like your hearing isn't the same as the person next to you etc.

    Sort of like how different radar arrays are shaped different and pick up different frequencies differently etc.

  • 🔥AI wrongly tells user a fire alarm is just a drill

    Jump

  • I didn't realize until I read your comment that the AI was integrated into Slack and told this person that they didn't need to evacuate without them specifically asking the AI for advice.

    On the other hand, this does show that anything typed into that slack channel is treated like a query. Which is also terrifyingly stupid.
