That’s quite obviously the end goal here.

Major respect for taking one for the team.

Bats. Imagine having a friendly familiar. They could also be used to carry messages.

Nothing a quick pill won’t fix.

Now, convincing your wife to take pills for YOUR illness, that’s another thing.

Nopepad now.

I actually think the young crowd at MS would resist this. This looks much more like a top-down decision from marketing overruling engineering.

It’s pretty obvious from where I’m standing that a far right takeover of Europe is also on the horizon and there is nothing we can do to stop it. There is so much power and money behind these movements, and they only have to succeed ONCE, where we have to succeed EVERY TIME in order to keep our protections.

It won’t last though. We’re going the exact same route USA is going, just slower and more splintered. But the end destination is the same.

Lovecraft deserves some redemption. First of all he wasn’t especially racist, just the “normal” amount for his time (take with a grain of salt please!). More importantly he significantly mellowed out in his later years primarily due to exposure to talented black writers which made him realize the error of his ways.

But yeah, I wouldn’t ask him to name my void cat.

First, its results are often simply wrong, so that’s no good. Second, the more people use the AI summaries, the easier it’ll be for the AI companies to subtly influence the results in their advantage. Think of advertising or propaganda.

This is already happening btw, and the reason Musk created Grokipedia. Grok (and even other llm’s!) already use it as a “trusted source”, which it is anything but.

You can set up any AI assistant that way with custom instructions. I always do, and I require it to clearly separate facts with sources from hearsay or opinion.

The EU doesn’t always have the best track record for this type of thing either. Look up how polluted Flanders is with PFAS. It’s literally the most PFA polluted area in the world, but you’ll never hear a peep about it because the chemical companies responsible have a firm hold on the narrative.

So now we have to assume that everyone using Nvidia hardware has an open backdoor for the Mossad. Very nice. Fucking lovely timeline.

Attack of the logic gates.

If you have the means, GTFO. I would if I were on that side of the Atlantic.

+1 from me.

+1 for Obsidian. Copy-paste to other pc = immediate access without setup. Plug & play. Also free.

It already has. The West doesn’t like to advertise that though.

👍

Consumers are what, less than 10% of MS’s revenue? Most of their income is from cloud (Azure, O365) so they can afford to treat their consumer customers like trash. They don’t give a shit about your 50-150 bucks for a win license because it’s peanuts to them.

The only viable option for consumers is to massively ditch MS products altogether and migrate to alternatives, which used to be in short supply but luckily aren’t anymore.

It’s less that he personally learned anything and more that the Heritage Foundation did, he’s only following their playbook.
