Seems interesting that cryptocurrency has suddenly been bolstered with legislation. A secondary market might become important were the dollar not to recover.
Correct, and didn’t sell your data to do it. I’m okay with that. If I trust Apple with basically my life stored on their phone and in their cloud, and processing payments for me, and filtering my email, and spoofing my mac address on networks (and,and,and), it seems foolish to be worried about them knowing what tv shows I like to watch at night too. At least to me. It’s gonna be a sad day when Tim leaves and user privacy isn’t a company focus anymore.
Disney, is well aware of the writing on the wall that copyright is going to continue to become increasingly harder to enforce, as generative ai distances itself from brute mimicry, and because infringers can generate new versions faster that takedown notices can be filed. Their alternative is to either be steamrolled, or leverage their IP while it has worth in order to latch on to the AI market. Plus, they give a solid explanation: it is free advertising when there are guardrails on how the characters can behave/say/portray (which is the advantage of the deal — I assume a similar one with Google, Microsoft or Apple will be forthcoming too).
When a true “leader” big or small emerges, every bit of capital will flock to it, leaving a burned out nest of ai company husks. But hey…maybe this time will be completely different. (And upon consideration, I think this is exactly why. All their deals are with the husks, while keeping their IP to leverage with the winner.)
They have to consider China. Right now Z-Image Turbo lets you render stills of any popular cartoon character you like, at frankly-disturbing levels of quality, doing almost anything you like. That's a relatively-tiny 6G-parameter model. If and when a WAN 2.2-level video model is released with a comparable lack of censorship, that will be the end of Disney's monopoly on pretty much any character IP.
Also, notice how Disney jumped all over Gemini's case before the ink was dry on the OpenAI partnership agreement. My guess is that Altman is just using Disney to attack his competitors, basically the 'two' part of a one-two punch that began by buying up a large portion of the world's RAM capacity for no valid business reason.
Definitely, and hence the reason that structuring requests/responses and providing examples for smaller atomic units of work seem to have quite a significant effect on the accuracy of the output (not factuality, but more accurate to the patterns that were emphasized in the preceding prompt).
I just wish we could more efficiently ”prime” a pre-defined latent context window instead of hoping for cache hits.
> it's primarily a website … unambiguously possible[sic] for chatGPT … happens to also be the message platform
I assume you mean impossible, and in either case that’s not quite accurate. The “end” is a specific AI model you wished to communicate with, not the platform. You’re suggesting they are one and the same, but they are not and Google proves that with their own secure LLM offering.
But I’m 100% with you on it being a disingenuous use.
No, No typo- the problem with ChatGPT is the third party that would would be Attesting that's how it works, is just the 2nd party.
I'm not familiar with the referenced Google secure LLM, but offhand- if it's TEE based- Google would be publishing auditable/signed images and Intel/AMD would be the third party Attesting that's whats actually running. TEEs are way out of my expertise though, and there's a ton of places and ways for it to break down.
That seems a lot like corpo- excuse making about adjusting usage to compensate for the fact that a product someone purchased has been changed, and broken, in order to be forced into agreement for a contract. That is called coercion in many places, but it seems like your recommended solution is that people accept getting screwed just so corporations can make more money when people complain…is that correct?
I'm just saying, how often do you need to adjust your phone while you're cycling?
It's a step back to not be able to do it by voice but if you're concerned enough about your privacy, stopping once or twice during a ride doesn't sound like the end of the world.
I'm not saying it's fine that Google took away functionality but, from a practical perspective, it seems like OP was acting like there's no other option available to change tracks. There is and it's really not that inconvenient.
I mean, any time you suggest "regulate companies" or "form a union", you get dogpiled. So until society gets its act together and collectively fixes these problems, the only immediate solution is to opt out.
No matter how you sync, a Keepass file is a file. I can't be logged out. It will still be on my phone if my house burns down. Every device it's synced to is an additional backup copy.
The Bitwarden client will sometimes log you out if something happens on the server side, which has the potential to make worst case recovery from annoying to impossible. The circular dependency of having my cloud backup password in the vault made me nervous.
Yes, you can back your vault up, but it's a manual step and likely to be forgotten.
> I assume we agree that working less produces less
That’s a pretty big assumption. From what perspective, since the “working less” is only the perspective of the worker?
Production is not a zero-sum game that assumes companies make zero effort to invest in more manpower rather than profits.
Profit rates, however, are a significant part of the problem as each US company in the chain attempts to maximize profits they obtain from the next and avoid any competition (often using the legal system for protection). That doesn’t occur in the areas you mention because competition is the name of the game in those countries, which is why they have maximized production and flexibility.
