Sweet! If this pumps my Dogecoin to $69 I can retire

I know, but it looks derpier that way

Brett Kavanaugh: Hold my beer, I got this!

I read through the thing, and it’s a doozy. he seems triggered by the fact that AI might make a picture where Washington is a black man, or Hamilton is Latino. I hope he hasn’t been to Broadway lately…

How so? You can say whatever you want in America today, as long as the President would agree. How is that not Freedom_TM?

Who knew this inscription was about “Biggus Dickus” all along?

It tracks, his entire career has been spent getting other people to pay for stuff for him

I guess I need to change the password on my luggage

Iran could decide to purge itself of all GPS-reliant devices and use Beidou devices instead. They could go the extra mile and intentionally jam the GPS frequencies in its territory (or even broadcast their own signal to confuse receivers in enemy bombs), as long as those frequencies are not also used by Beidou.

But you’re right in that GPS is a global system and the US is raining down RF everywhere in the world, whether the people there like it or not.

It is an interesting article, even if it’s conclusions are entirely too rosy. The “storefront” was a single vending machine, and the bot was instructed to interact with Anthropic employees (with an hourly cost attached) to do all physical interactions. While the bot did a decent job managing the stock most of the time, it made a lot of bad decisions based on trying to be too helpful to it’s customers. It also frequently hallucinated, with some hilarious results I wont spoil here. But as anyone who owns a small business knows, one bad decision could put it under, so saying that an AI can manage a vending machine well “most of the time” is equivalent to saying it cant do the job at all.

Their conclusion is that with a bit more work, Claude might be able to perform as a middle-manager. To me, that says more about how useless middle-management is than how capable their AI is.

… but isn’t Lemmy social media? And you’re here. (Although I guess it is more accurately called antisocial media)

All Boeing needs to make this problem go away is a modest investment in $TRUMP…

That reads like an AI wrote it

The irony is that they often have backup diesel generators, so even if they cause a blackout they will still be able to service everyone’s AI requests to do their homework for them

I’ll save you all a click

Disney is planning to introduce “virtual storefronts” to its popular streaming services, including Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN. These storefronts will allow viewers to order snacks or pick out products they’ve seen in their favorite shows, all while continuing to stream their movie or show. Disney+ subscribers will see interactive ads pop up as well.

So, basically, stuffing more ads into the premium service you paid for (presumably to avoid ads). These people don’t get it, do they?

As a man, I’ve never been made to feel excluded by gender equality in any way whatsoever.

Same here. However, I suspect you and I are not zero-sum thinkers, and can conceive of a future in which both men and women can apply themselves to their full potential.

But it seems like a key part of the counter-movement to gender equality is based on the notion that every time a woman gets a job, they are taking it away from a more qualified man. It seems to be built on a mountain of insecurity more than anything else.

Right, but most modern cars have that communication built in, because they use it to update firmware remotely. You can’t turn it off even if you wanted to. Many car companies justify it by saying it is needed to give your location to emergency services if you use their alert button.

I tend to agree (and also an EE). Airplane mode isn’t a total panacea, though. It just disables the cellular radio. While it also disables the Wifi and Bluetooth, those can always be turned back on, even while Airplane Mode is active. A motivated state actor can absolutely track via Wifi or Bluetooth. (Possibly even NFC, but the range on that is so low that I think it would impossible to do without seeing what is tracking you).

Turning the phone off is the best solution if you want to keep rhe phone on your person. Guaranteed that all possible avenues for tracking is off, and also has the advantage that even if the phone is seized, the latest phone OSes require the passcode before doing anything at all when they first power up. Even the Police are limited in the data they can get off a phone that has just powered up and is asking for the passcode.

Even the people who are against crypto are probably shilling something. Same song, different key.

Reddit still publishes RSS feeds, so you can use an RSS reader to see the latest stuff. You can’t interact with it, but who wants to trade shit posts with bots anyway?

This is how I keep up with my Sportsball teams since that community hasn’t really taken off here yet.
