  • Unaffiliated Voter in CO - Who to vote for in Primaries?

  • Imagine that this needs to be your thought process for an election. Fucking sad.

  • Are there any genuine benefits to AI?

    Jump

  • This already happened with the industrial revolution. It did make the rich awfully rich, but let's be honest. People are way better off today too.

    It's not perfect, but it does help in the long run. Also, there's a big difference in which country you're in.

    Capitalist-socialism will be way better off than hard core capitalism, because the mind set and systems are already in place to let it benefit the people more.

  • Very true. I learned how to code surprisingly fast.

    And even the mistakes the AI made was good, because it made me learn so much seeing what changes it did to fix it.

  • If you are a tourist visiting Russia, what are Russians like when you engage with them out in public?

    Jump

  • And if someone thinks the above comment is wrong, you are victim of the exact same propaganda that makes Russians support Putin. Just on the western side.

  • Apple is officially dropping iPhone support for web apps in the EU - The Verge

    Jump

  • The probably couldn't afford the development /s

    But on the positive side, Apple is now forced to allow other app stores on all phones in the EU.

    So that's probably a bigger win than this is a loss.

  • "Finding the application is half the innovation"

  • Does Android still need third-party launchers?

  • I'm using the Samsung S24 out of the box. What are you missing with it?

    Curious, because I want to switch if there's good arguments to do so.

  • Download lossless quality music without paying corps. that stream it

    Jump

  • Yeah, Spotify made that deal with podcasts. They wanted them on their platform so bad, that they fucked every single paying customer they have.

    I have Spotify Premium Duo, and it's the same thing on podcasts.

  • Apple won’t be forced to open up iMessage by EU

    Jump

  • RCS only increased the meta-data the cellular providers and messaging apps is selling on you.

    They don't care about the content in your message, so e2ee is useless in this case.

    They're selling who you message, when, and where you are when you do it. They collect data on which cellular tower transmitted your message. And now with RCS they also know when you read the message.

    Which means RCS is just as useless in terms of privacy. They only enriched the data. So it's probably worse.

    Jump

  • I don't know why people have more faith in cellular providers. They have been selling all of your data before Meta was a thing.

  • US is still stuck on SMS, so much that they even made an upgrade to it with RCS.

    It felt like an upgrade to the DVD disk when you have the Internet.

  • Who makes money when AI reads the internet for us?

    Jump

  • Unfortunately, most people don't care. That's why most get their news from Facebook or TikTok, and only read headlines.

  • TiL the car and gas industry knew about the health risks of leaded fuel but sold it for 100 years anyway

    Jump

  • And you can be sure whatever causes all major illness today, they know, but it's too profitable to do anything about it.

    The things the sugar industry knows for example, but everyone is turning a blind eye.

  • Lesson #1 on the Internet.

    Put something on it, expect it to be there forever. You never own whatever you put out there. Both text, pictures nor video.

    Maybe companies should realise this too.

    Is this post sponsored by Google or what?

  • Apple Is Lobbying Against Right to Repair Six Months After Supporting Right to Repair

    Jump

  • Fortunately, they are forced to do it in EU.

  • How did China get so good at chips and AI? Congressional investigation blames American venture capitalists

    Jump

  • Free market and competition. We don't like that now, huh?

  • Am I the only software engineer greatly worried and disturbed by AI ?

    Jump

  • You seem like the guy who kept writing in hand and didn't want to use the typewriter, even though it went 2x times faster.

    Or the guy who kept writing the typewriter and didn't want to use the computer.

    You see the point?

  • Police Departments Are Turning to AI to Sift Through Millions of Hours of Unreviewed Body-Cam Footage

    Jump

  • ITT: People who are scared of things they don't understand, which in this case is AI.

    In this case, the "AI" program is nothing more than pattern recognition software setting a timestamp where it believes there's something to be looked at. Then an officer can take a look.

    It saves so much time, and it filters out anything irrelevant. But be careful because it's labelled "AI". Scarry.

    EDIT: Comments to this comment confirms that you don't understand AI, because if you did, you'd know that this system who scans video is not a LLM (large language model). It's not even the same system in its core.
