Whelp. I just hate them a little more now.

Granted they’re an awful company and I hate the a lot. Because they’re an awful company.

This seems very close to owning the truth and could be a start to some very dark business.

TheYear2525 ,

Yup, if you think “Fox News truth” is a problem now, wait until there’s “Intel Truth” vs “AMD Truth”.

trashhalo , to worldnews in Unilever will let Russia employees be conscripted

What does “let” mean in this context? Do they get a vote?

sadreality ,

Shiti headline... yeah unilever is a trash company but they really have no choice here.

Should existed and they would avoid a shiti headline tho

So much for playing both sides lol

Norgur , to worldnews in Unilever will let Russia employees be conscripted

The article does not say what they could do to prevent conscription, or if they can do anything in the first place.

Besides, them not pulling out is really not as consequential as it might seem. The Russian government has taken over many of the brands that have pulled out with the consequence that even more of the earnings of the factories in question go to the government. So, while I agree that them staying shows greed, it would not change shit if they left.

dsemy , to worldnews in Unilever will let Russia employees be conscripted

As if they have a choice (other than pulling out of Russia completely of course).

He’s got not much to say, to be honest, but maybe that’s saying a lot.

Soon, people can just commit crimes in front of cameras and claim it’s deepfake.

jango1985 ,

those super embarrassing things you did at that party were obviously a deepfake by a angry neighbor or jilted lover. Dumb things politicians say, deepfake smear campaigns, all of them. Those politicians all have IQ of a 180 or how would they have gotten into Congress and the White House etc.

jango1985 ,

Also don't give Trump ideas, no srsly.

radarsat1 ,

Apparently if people are gullible enough you can even use video calls to commit crimes, no AI needed!

It was through a video call – where only the photograph of a man who was the same as Minister Jackson, with a cap and glasses – was seen where the imposter began to give orders to the two workers, who work at night. First, they removed 50 laptops from the different floors of the ministry. newsrnd.com/…/2023-07-22--negro-chico---the-priso…

tallwookie , to worldnews in Amsterdam bans cruise ships to limit visitors and curb pollution

what percentage of the port cities economy that the cruise ships stop at is driven by the cruise ship passengers? might be a net bad thing

Amsterdam? Have you ever read a book?

So allegedly cruise tourists eat all meals on board the boat since it’s free as well as sleep there, so they spend very little compared to other tourists.

itchy_lizard , to worldnews in Amsterdam bans cruise ships to limit visitors and curb pollution

Now do cars

Rednax ,

Parking in the city center of Amsterdam will cost you more than 60 euro for a full day. But if you park at the edge of the city, close to the highway exit and next to a metro station, it will cost you 1 euro.

While it is no outright ban, it is one of the various ways the city is pushing cars away from the center.

philluminati ,

The Netherlands is the most bike friendly country in the world.

HughJanus , to technology in Intel's deepfake detector tested on real and fake videos

When we make this point to Ms Demir, she says that “verifying something as fake, versus ‘be careful, this may be fake’ is weighted differently”.

How is that useful? Are they unable to assign a confidence score?

danhasnolife , to worldnews in Nova Scotia: Four missing after extreme rainfall hits Canada

Climate change has been particularly unsettling this summer because it has felt like a constant reminder that it can’t be escaped. Even if you aren’t in Florida or Arizona or Greenland, even if you feel like you’re insulated up in Vermont or Canada – bam, 11 inches of rain in 24 hours.

adespoton ,

Ah yes, Canada… that place a few hours north of Vermont.

:D

Sorry, came here to joke about the headline — over here in the west we haven’t seen any real rain in months.

Which is itself a problem.

BurnTheRight , to worldnews in Greece fires: Thousands flee homes and hotels on Rhodes as fires spread

Unfortunately, they have been trying to use water to put the fire out. Huge mistake!

Yewb ,

While your comment is what we all (mostly) think, a grease fire is quite a good joke - I appreciate you can make it on here without massive dickbags downvoting you or you being shadow banned.

itchy_lizard ,

I didn’t know my Dad was on Lemmy

BurnTheRight ,

Shit. Don't tell your mom, OK?

DolphLundgren , to technology in Intel's deepfake detector tested on real and fake videos

This seems like a very bad idea. I’m concerned that having a test might cause people to suspend their critical thinking responsibility and may have other issues like being inaccurate or causing deep fake tech to just leap frog over it - and then be able to benefit from fake authenticity measurements.

lagomorphlecture ,

The problem is that yes, that could happen, but without a test we won’t be able to trust or believe anything soon.

ozoned , to technology in Intel's deepfake detector tested on real and fake videos
@ozoned@beehaw.org avatar

“In essence, the accuracy is entirely dependent on the difficulty of the test.”

AKA doesn’t work for shit. Don’t bother with it. And even if it did work, it’ll be an arms race and right now the deepfakes have the nuke and Intel has a musket.
