The author seems to be more interested in generating outrage than anything, but I think the point about AI still stands. From a UX standpoint, key points that may be incorrect are a terrible idea. That they originally intended to force AI on the user, at least from how it seems, is problematic.
The author’s privacy and accessibility concerns seem artifical to me.
Looks like mostly SteamOS users, which isn’t too surprising. Hopefully we can see that number go up over time as people get sick of Windows.
Slightly off topic, but it looks like they reopened the forums!
The feature was introduced as a way for users to get relevant information faster, by providing them with an image, the webpage title, and AI-generated key points.
The AI part was made optional. That doesn’t mean they didn’t try.
Zen figured out link previews without using AI and the solution is really as simple as it gets. Maybe stop trying to manufacture problems for AI to solve?
what fucking authority did Donnie have to do this to begin with?
You see, he hates brown people, and doesn’t care if they come from Latin America or the Middle East. So I guess that’s his authority.
To his credit, that has worked before with previous presidents too.
This is often how it starts, sadly. Maybe by 2050 the rest of us plebians can get access to it (not that I need any new teeth right now, and hopefully not before 2050).
Surely you have an example where it’s appropriate for a service to generate nonconsensual deepfakes of people then? Because last I checked, that’s what the post’s topic is.
And yes, children are people. And yes, it’s been used that way.
Edit: as for guardrails, yes any service should have that. We all know what Grok’s are though, coming from Elon “anti-censorship” Musk. I mentioned ChatGPT also generating images, and they have very strict guardrails. They still make mistakes though, and it’s still unacceptable. Also, any amount of local finetuning of these models can delete their guardrails accidentally, so yeah.
When someone clicks the “edit” button, I guess.
Ok yes you’re right. “Grok generate me some CSAM” is the same as opening up a photo editor and drawing a new real looking body onto someone’s child and putting it in a new body position. Same exact thing. No different at all. Twitter has no responsibility for running a service that can do this.
Grok, put this “small adult” into a bikini and have her bend over.
Creating nudes without consent, especially CSAM (even with consent), can be extremely illegal. Doing it in photo editor software makes you responsible and only leaves it on your device. ChatGPT will attempt to filter it, and their filters lean on the aggressive side, but that’s also between you and OpenAI. Grok will post it publicly.
Their best hope is waiting two years and hoping the next president cares about reparations. The current one just plans to extract all he can from them to line his own pockets.
Modern* protect children bills would be more accurate.
The playbook these days is to use children, terrorism, etc to justify something that fails to address that problem and pushes some other agenda.
This has been true anyway in the US and UK. I have no clue how true this is in France and I won’t pretend to know, but from some other comments on the potential implementation could be better than what we’ve seen so far. I hope so, anyway.
JavaScript? C# is a statically typed, compiled language.
Considering MG is a continuation of XNA Framework, it’s kind of a given it’s C#. And for languages that were popular when XNA came out, C# is one of the nicest to work in these days.
You’re lucky if the busses even stopped for you where I used to live at. Half the time, they’d see you’re the only one at the stop, then just nope off without stopping.
Why would they order butt plugs? It’s clear their butts are already plugged with how full of shit they are.
The one I work at makes the questions optional at least. And yeah, I’ve taken advantage of that exactly for that reason.
Yeah that particular issue doesn’t bother me much anyway, just delays startup by a second or two.
For the past month or so, I’ve been getting “RDSEED32 is broken” and it seems to be an issue with AMD’s drivers? Either way, there doesn’t appear to be a solution for me outside of getting a new CPU, but it also still boots and works so I’m not too bothered by it either.
But when updates roll around? Yeah, usually a good idea to make a backup before updating. Same is true with Windows, of course, but I already expect Windows to need a reinstall every year or so.
