How it’s handled in countries such as Norway or The Netherlands is that those kinds of classes are exempt from the ban. It’s not a hard issue to solve.

Beats me, I don’t live in the US.

I stand corrected. It doesn’t include that as far as we know, on account of the bill not existing yet, not even in draft form. If you don’t mind, I’m going to ignore everything else you say now.

Yeah. My guess is that for every meticulously hand crafted ui, there’s 10 that just go with the default. If a user wants an icon pack where🤘means home, they’ll be perfectly fine with navigating your application.

Developers can always include an option to disable styling if that would severely break the ui. But personally, I’d rather use a application that looks roughly like every other one in the system, than one that’s so specifically designed that it doesn’t.

A PR disaster: Microsoft has lost trust with its users, and Windows Recall is the straw that broke the camel's back (www.windowscentral.com)

It’s a nightmare scenario for Microsoft. The headlining feature of its new Copilot+ PC initiative, which is supposed to drive millions of PC sales over the next couple of years, is under significant fire for being what many say is a major breach of privacy and security on Windows. That feature in question is Windows Recall, a...

Unless all the ai generated code is explicitly marked as ai generated this approach will go wrong eventually.

Undoubtedly. Hell, even when you do mark it as such, this will happen. Because bugs created by humans also get deployed.

Basically what you’re saying is that code review is not a guarantee against shipping bugs.

Robot cars can be crashed with tinfoil and painted cardboard (www.theregister.com)

Sure, but important to put into perspective when you compare it to .kkrieger and other old school demos - the browser does a lot of heavy lifting here.

Having said that, this is a majorly impressive feat. I love it that this is still a thing.

admin ,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

No argument here, it clearly does. But I don’t know of any bootloader games that have a comparable level of features. I suppose with DOS games and demos the amount of native code vs OS libraries would be almost negligible as well.

EDIT: Well this is by far my most negative comment here. That’s almost entertaining.

For what it’s worth, once you take down votes out of the equation, your comment isn’t doing so bad relatively. Fuck the haters, focus on the positive.

Ai isn’t the bubble, that’ll keep on improving, although probably not at this rate.

The hype bubble is companies adding AI to their product where it offers very little, if any, added value, which is incredibly tedious.

The latter bubble can burst, and we’ll all be better for it. But generative AI isn’t going anywhere.

@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

That’s a good thing to put it in perspective, yeah. The amount of people who think AI is just a fad that will go away is staggering.

It’s not the script writer or the producer that’s complaining though. I think it’s more reasonable for them to want compensation.

admin ,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

Not anything literally from the script, but I assume that’s where the concept of a voice controlled AI assistant came from - whoever holds the rights to that in relation to the title “Her”. So if it’s based on a novel or story, clearly the writer of that.

admin ,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

I’m aware of that, but we seem to get get distracted from the main point. In the case of OpenAI versus “Her” (i.e. Them launching a similar product, and referencing the film), I think it’s the owners of the Her IP that should have a right to complain. Not an actress that was in it, and whose voice is similar to it. According to the article, there were 2 well-known actresses whose vice matched even better. Should they take action as well?

All of this is under the assumption that they didn’t actual train on her voice - which does seem likely.

Estonia | The Digital State (youtu.be)

Most states rely on paper bureaucracy to ensure that the state can function and provide services. Paper bureaucracy has been part and parcel of how we maintain states and corporations since the Chinese invented the first paper bureaucracy systems of management 3000 years ago. But as you all probably know, bureaucracy kinda...

Regarding electronic voting, you can either have reliable and secure, or anonymous, but not both. Sounds like Estonia went for option 1.

Flashback to 2001 when someone with zero programming skills created a virus that shut down countless mailservers al over the world:

De Wit created Anna Kournikova in a matter of hours using a simple online Visual Basic Worm Generator program written by an Argentinian programmer called [K]Alamar. “The young man had downloaded a program on Sunday, February 11, from the Internet and later the same day, around 3:00 p.m., set the virus loose in a newsgroup.”

We should rather stop allowing sign ups without an application. The captchas are not good enough.

That’s near impossible to enforce, due to the federated nature. Server admins could whitelist which instances they trust, but I don’t think that’ll do much good from a community point of view.

Perhaps a sticky to find better moderator/timezone coverage could help. (And for that matter, I wouldn’t mind stricter moderation on post relevance - not all news about tech companies or events that just happen to take place online is tech news, imho)

admin ,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

I’m no federation expert, but I think if you could convince your own instance admin, or the one hosting this community (lemmy.world), to do so, you’d be good. But that would potentially affect a lot more users than just the ones in this community, so they might take some effort.

Also, I’m not aware of any tools that could automate this for you.

admin ,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

For that matter - I’m okay with filtering out people who think it’s too much effort. Quality over quantity.

@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

For over 15 years, I oversaw the technical aspect of the biggest weblog in my country. I took great professional pride in making sure that every time we migrated to a new cms, links would keep on working, even when the external pages they linked to were since long dead.

A couple of years ago I left. Last year they changed cms once more. Now all the links are dead, and can best be found through through archive. The content was ported to the new cms, but the links weren’t. So even though the content is in the database, it’s just inaccessible by its old url.

Such a shame.

Since you really should be creating a backup of the data before doing such a conversion in the first place, the best (not necessarily the fastest, but definitely the safest) way would be to copy the data to another medium, and copy it back when the space has been formatted.

CEO of Google Says It Has No Solution for Its AI Providing Wildly Incorrect Information (futurism.com)

In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won’t slide off (pssst…please don’t do this.)

My bad, I did mean it in the context of using the Internet.

admin ,
@admin@lemmy.my-box.dev avatar

I agree it’s being overused, just for the sake of it. On the other hand, I think right now we’re in the discovery phase - we’ll find out out pretty soon what it’s good at, and what it isn’t, and correct for that. The things that it IS good at will all benefit from it.

Articles like these, cherry picked examples where it gives terribly wrong answers, are great for entertainment, and as a reminder that generated content should not be relied on without critical thinking. But it’s not the whole picture, and should not be used to write off the technology itself.

(as a side note, I do have issues with how training data is gathered without consent of its creators, but that’s a separate concern from its application)
