OpenAI Suspends ByteDance's Account After It Used GPT To Train Its Own AI Model (slashdot.org)

TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, has been secretly using OpenAI’s technology to develop its own competing large language model (LLM). “This practice is generally considered a faux pas in the AI world,” writes The Verge’s Alex Heath. “It’s also in direct violation of OpenAI’s terms of service, which state that...

Hard to reason with pearl clutchers afraid of what their gods gave them

CaptainSpaceman ,

I dont even watch twictch, but look how bent out of shape you are on this subject.

If sex scares you, idk what to say fam. Every animal, fungi, plant, etc all do it. Its ok if people are entertained by it.

You and 8 other people care very loudly, we get it.

Anything in the name of protection or security tends to lead to invasion of privacy and/or censorship of information

Musk just hsoted a space with Ramaswamy, Andrew Tate, Matt Gaetz, and Alex Jones

How do you think that went down? My prejudice tells me it was probably racist and xenophobic AF and probably included some dog whistles

Apple responds to the Beeper iMessage saga: ‘We took steps to protect our users’ (www.theverge.com)

Apple responds to the Beeper iMessage saga: ‘We took steps to protect our users’::Beeper, like Sunbird and Texts, sought to find a way to bring iMessage to Android users. Its app, Beeper Mini, worked well. But a few days after it launched, Apple took steps to shut it down.

Sounds like more people should use Signal

CaptainSpaceman ,

Yeah, ive used Threema and Matrix and neither competes with the ease of adoption that Signal has for normies

CaptainSpaceman ,

Soon enough AI will be answering questions with only its own previous answers, meaning any flaws are hereditary to all future answers.

CaptainSpaceman ,

And literally nothing will happen.

Monopolies own the govt, they do what they want

Senators Introduce ‘Fans First’ Bill Intended to Reform Live-Event Ticketing System (variety.com)

Senators Introduce ‘Fans First’ Bill Intended to Reform Live-Event Ticketing System::Senators John Cornyn, Amy Klobuchar and others introduced the ‘Fans First’ Act to help “address flaws in the current live event ticketing system.’

The same people trying to slap LiveNation/TM on the wrist now are the ones who allowed them to be gigantic anyways.

There are like a dozen different monopolies that control most of our lives, its just like the late 1800s all over again. Worthless governments allow worthless rich people to own all of the profits.

CaptainSpaceman ,

XP pro and Win7 were the bestest

Now im porting as much to Linux as I can

CaptainSpaceman ,

Moxie helped WhatsApp integrate the Signal protocol for e2ee, but I dont trust thatt they never implemented any backdoors in their protocol after Moxie was done helping them.

IMO, just use Signal anyways. Fuck Meta

CaptainSpaceman ,

10x the cost of what tho? They just say “most other countries”, but tahts just spin and essentially meaningless without more data

The History and Future of Digital Ownership (www.theverge.com)

I’d like to get the community’s feedback on this. I find it very disturbing that digital content purchased on a platform does not rightfully belong to the purchaser and that the content can be completely removed by the platform owners. Based on my understanding, when we purchase a show or movie or game digitally, what...

CaptainSpaceman ,

Im gonna use a bad word, but NFTs would help with this issue

True digital ownership thats censor proof is pretty legit imo

CaptainSpaceman ,

Yeah, thats what I did when I bought my NFT game and some NFT mp3s. They ares in my wallet and I can play/ listen forever, steam or Microsoft or epic or google or whatever can never take it away from me.

CaptainSpaceman ,

The NFT is the item though, and it can be easily resold

CaptainSpaceman ,

I didnt know you could download from GoG, thought it was all in browser. Thats pretty sick tbh

CaptainSpaceman ,

How do you think they can force me to sell?

CaptainSpaceman ,

Depends on the item, the platform its being sold on, etc, but I believe most NFTs are hosted on the IPFS platform which is censor resistant

Some NFTs actually point to physical objects and have the digital token as a “certificate of authenticity”. Ive got a holographic skate deck from a EDM artist shipped to me, has an NFC badge on it for more goodies in the future

The tech is pretty cool, imo, and has a lot of modern use cases.

CaptainSpaceman ,

Tbh, the best use case for NFTs in games is IN games. Items, weapons, skins etc would be amazing if they were x-platform and interoperable with many diff games. Imagine using Stormbreaker in Elden Ring without mods, just by importing a weapon OBJ file.

Google has quietly pushed back the launch of next-gen AI model Gemini until next year, report says::Google, which aimed to have its conversational AI model Gemini launch in November, has quietly pushed back the much-anticipated debut to early 2024.

CaptainSpaceman ,

Amazon ha stheirs now too, maybe they want to compete with them and have AI for GCP before launching theirs

CaptainSpaceman ,

But if 73% of traffic is fake, and they monitor traffic to determine sentiment and marketing strategies, then who are they actually marketing TO?
