Don’t call it a comeback, I been here for years.
The magazine name is Modern Misogyny and rule 1 is “No bigotry - misogyny…”.
That is like dividing by zero.
Right now, it appears to exist only with one user posting to himself. It is not a big problem. However, if you don’t clean these things up quickly, you end up with a Nazi bar. Voat started out very Libertarian, but by the time it closed, its front page was dominated by hard-core antisemitism, it literally became a Nazi hang-out. Tolerance of intolerance ends up allowing the intolerance to spread and become the majority. kbin.social can not end up like that.
It is unclear how long Amazon will continue to support their assistant in the future. Amazon Alexa is a “colossal failure,” on pace to lose $10 billion this year
People use exactly as you are, to control various smart devices, but that doesn’t pay for the infrastructure that makes Alexa run, and people are not using it to buy stuff from Amazon as envisioned.
Google’s products are getting worse as they are now deep into the enshitification process, and making investors happy takes precedence over users. I would welcome an improvement in Google Assistant, but it will probably manage to make things worse.
There are a bunch of new 5-star ratings, including some that mention the API, others put in language referencing other apps. Either fanboys brigading or paid shillery of the reviews is occurring.
We must protect high income individuals at all cost. It can’t be considered an improvement if some rich asshole is less rich because of a law, and so the laws need to be rolled back. Republican obsequiousness toward corporations will get us all killed.
That’s how human intelligence works. We assign a value to the source of the information. The fact that the AI’s seemed to be trained without that explains why they “lie” so much. They simply reconstruct patterns without giving any weight to specific patterns.
For example, if you have the information “President Biden will launch a ground invasion of Russia.” If the New York Times, BBC, and CNN are all reporting it, we would give that information a higher likelihood of being true than if the information was found on random blogs. However, if the random blogs reporting the information belonged to reputable reporters or bloggers on military and international affairs, we would assign the information a higher value of being correct than if the information came from Bob’s Bigfoot and Alien sightings Index.
Without the ability to check the level of accuracy of source data, all the generative AI could be corrupted. If you fed an art AI photos of the Statue of Liberty but kept telling it that it was the Eiffel Tower, when asked to draw the Eiffel Tower it would spit out the Statue of Liberty. Right now, without the ability to assess the accuracy of a response, any of the chat-based AI are garbage for most of the use-cases companies are deploying them in.
Firefox for general browsing. Firefox Focus when I want privacy (it can help get around some paywalled news sources.) If I need to use a Chrome based browser, I use Samsung with an ad block.
Nuclear is very expensive, which means it needs to be run for a long time to make up for the initial investment costs. There are not very many places where you will be able to have enough cooling water for 3 to 5 decades that is not on a coastline. However, if you build on the coast you have to build with 50 years of sea level rise, tsunamis and flooding in mind. All of that adds to the already high costs.
Cover everything with solar, build up on and offshore wind, improve existing hydroelectric and invest in geothermal, make the grid larger with more grid storage, and if you still need more energy sources then add nuclear.
