Echo Dot

“That doesn’t happen on android!”

It will absolutely happen with Apple, because there’s so much money that will be up for grabs.

Yeah sure because there are no expensive Android phones.

I just love the fact that he had to open three gates in order to get to my garden. But couldn’t be bothered to check the address.

Amazon sent my next door neighbour a photograph of my back garden indicating they delivered the package. In the photo you can see my door with the obviously wrong house number.

That is a weird question.

How do you calculate odds of dying by suicide anyway, wouldn’t they be personal?

Clearly it’s your fault for both breaking and going around a corner at the same time. Who does that?

How about less reliance on cars in the first place?

Americans seem to think of buses as some sort of commie plot.

Sometimes you see those videos from a dash cam of a truck that hits a bridge, obviously the truck driver was been being inattentive but often so was the recording cars driver. All I can ever think is, “why were you so close behind, it was blindingly obvious that was about to happen”, yet to them apparently it wasn’t, and now they’ve got bits of truck roof in their windscreen.

There was an astounding number of people who really cannot drive, and yet they think they’re driving safely. They just haven’t gotten a crash yet.

Yeah maybe we shouldn’t have the case in the US where money rules everything.

EU get on it.

I think it’s acceptable as long as you don’t learn anything.

Actually this case could be a good thing. The whole question of who owns user generated content needs hashing out, because no one seems to actually know.

Obviously the logical answer would be that the people who created it own the content, but that’s never been officially decided.

Oh I didn’t realise that how it worked.

Doesn’t that mean that the hosting requirements for every instance are just going to become unfeasibly large as time goes on, or do the files get cleared out after a couple of years?

Some legitimate users probably submit more requests than that

This is like one of those cases where I’m kind of hoping they both lose somehow. Neither party are right in this case, Reddit is trying to claim copyright over content they have no rights to, and anthropic shouldn’t be violating copyright without a licence.

But apparently you are actually allowed to violate copyright without a licence if you’re an AI company because apparently llms are the future? So I guess Reddit are going to lose, which will be funny.

Did you even watch the video? It’s a well-produced piece of content from a pretty well-known individual

I was actually surprised the Bluetooth keyboard and mouse still worked.

There’s more to it than that, there’s also the cost of implementation.

If a self-driving car killed on average one less human than your average human does, but costs $100,000 to install in the car, then it still isn’t worth implementing.

Yes I know that puts a price on human life but that is how economics works.

You’d have to be an idiot to merge anything from an AI without going through it line by line. Which really is the problem with AI, it’s mostly fine if you keep an eye on it but the fact you have to keep an eye on it kind of renders the whole thing pointless.

It’s like self-driving cars, if I have to keep an eye on it to make sure it won’t randomly crash into a tree I might as well drive the damn thing myself.

I guess I have no problem in theory with AI agents taking a look at my code it’s just I would want it opt in only. I don’t want to have to deal with them on legacy projects that I’m not working on, or anything mission critical (if there is a bug in the code but the application overall still works, I’d rather not have an AI dick around with it until I have time to properly go through it).

To be clear, I would have the same objections to a human doing the same things. It’s just that most humans don’t randomly submit pull requests on otherwise inactive repos.

Oh great so if you remove bitcoin your argument works, trouble is, bitcoin exists

Wait but that’s like saying that as long as the world has at least one electric car the internal combustion engine can continue to exist without issue.

If the vast majority of cryptocurrencies are still power hungry and the most commonly used cryptocurrency is power hungry then the fact that some of the others are better doesn’t really help.
