  • Firefox Will Ship with an "AI Kill Switch" to Completely Disable all AI Features - 9to5Linux

    Jump

  • I cannot, because it's not something I track. It's usually some site ive only ever visited that once, worked around their shit engineering, and moved on with my life. So it's not that specific sites don't work, it's that ive had to use Chrome or edge 6 times this year.

    I can't remember a browser ever saying I needed chrome. Even Google Meet works fine...just functionality is reduced. A small price to pay for not giving Google the keys.

  • What browser do you use?

    I'm getting a bit tired of website incompatibility with Firefox but when the alternative is Chrome, I'm sticking with FF.

  • Got a link? I'd love to get me one of those

  • Google CEO: If an AI bubble pops, no one is getting out clean

  • That's not how people made money. That's what precipitated the crash. Shorting companies that were exposed would have been one route to make money - but as I said before, the smart piece there is in the timing not the mechanism. Shorting stock isnt difficult...Shorting it at the right time can be.

  • Judo is more focussed on throwing and grappling than it is on joint locks and holds, or "folding".

    The more you know.

  • Don't throw away your old PC—it makes a better NAS than anything you can buy

    Jump

  • I've got 2 rPis - a pi5 running Home Assistant and a pi4 with a USB drive caddy acting as little more than a NAS (it also does all the downloading through radarr etc.. )

    I find them perfectly adequate.

    My gaming rig acts as my emby server as it's basically on all the time and it has a beefy gfx card that can handle transcoding.

  • this quirkiness doesn't materialise in real world applications on any scale that makes it harder to deal with than the alternatives.

  • Strike fear into your fellow man? Show those peasants that you are working hard to replace them entirely.

  • Gmail can read your emails and attachments to train its AI, unless you opt out

    Jump

  • Okay sounds probably gonna get crucified for not reading this...but if the headline is true and combined with the fact that LLMs have been known to expose training data, this seems to introduce a non-zero chance that my personal emails are going to get shown to strangers.....

  • Devs gripe about having AI shoved down their throats

    Jump

  • Careful with views like that. They're not very popular here on Lemmy. Can't possibly promote responsible and reasonable use of new computer software.

    AI bad.

  • It's been downhill from that day

  • We dont? You must not be from UK.

  • Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me"

  • Fair, I did anticipate it not being a popular view here.

  • Yeah fair, I just wish people didn't try and suppress views they disagree with. It's how we end up with shadow voters.

  • Downvotes because disagree. I thought this place was meant to be better than reddit.

  • I know this isn't going to be popular here, but I do really worry that people who take this approach will end up hamstringing their opportunities in life.

    I agree that AI is over hyped, easily misused and being forced into things it's not necessarily very helpful for....but that's also what it was like when the internet came around.

    I think people would be wise to familiarise themselves with the tools available if only to hedge their bets....you can't find a software engineering job right now that doesn't want experience with AI tools, and if it's as successful as many think it will be - you will find most jobs will expect proficiency with AI in the same way they expect proficiency with computers.

    It might go the other way and become irrelevant of course. But right now I dont think the majority of people are informed enough to know which way it will go and are thus just responding emotionally instead.

  • Interesting. And what was the how back then?

  • The money to be made is on predicting when, not it it's going to burst. Otherwise we'd all be betting the house on it.

  • Having just gone through something...I can attest to the fact that when you see no end to the pain, the mental anguish is immense. For some people that means a couple of points.

    For me when asked, I always think "could it be worse?" and having never had my balls trampled by a herd of elephants, or been hanged, drawn and quartered....I could never give a 10.
