Comment Screenless Cell Phones&Startrek Computers-Stev (Score 1) 44

Hey it's been about 15 years, if you remember me, I'm the #1 Starcraft/Broodwar/Warcraft3 guy.

What you might not know about me is Steve Jobs and Larry Page used my 100+ pages to design the smart phone.
didn't sue them because I was waiting til they became the Surveillance State and they have..
So I showed my designs to Warren Buffet's Lawyers last year and Warren Buffet sold 133$ billion.
Steve Jobs didn't invent the Smart Phone, I did.
See designs at: www.techaform.com
In response to revealing to the world in Fall 2024, Apple/Google did not honor me, instead Tim Cook cost his company $833 billion fighting me:

1) Warren Buffet sold $133 billion in stock when his lawyers advised him my designs were indefensible.
2) Open AI cancelled its deal with Apple. $300 billion(future of Apple)
3) The stock market crashed on March 6th,2025: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fgroup... $200 billion
4) Eu fined/regulated Apple/Google... $200 billion

If I wanted money, I would have sued em 20 years ago for a hundred mil. I'm already succeeding in what I wanted to achieve.
I designed this to fight surveillance state.
Yes, I chose to not take a hundred million when I was young so I could help the world when I was older. Not many are like me.
I saw the phone would have GPS and everyone would use it. As a punk, I stood vs corporations and control at age 23. I saw it coming.
I had a choice: Don't invent the Smart Phone, or invent it so hard that I'd have a hand in the game down the road. I chose to bridge over the River Kwaii it.>
I have a solid following of over 100,000 people today... They see me as a champion for freedom world wide who'd rather live in poverty willingly than give in to the surveillance state. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fyoutube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DG7...

Comment Wait...So Lying Works?! (Score 4, Interesting) 107

the most persuasive models said the most untrue things

So you're telling me that when you remove the barrier of having some kind of ethical framework or internal compass, you can sway more people's opinions? Who knew!?

Even in today's political climate, where spin and hyperbole are rife, there's at least the veneer of trying to be truthful. Maybe that's what the candidate actually believes, even if it's false. Even if you make it purely based on self-interest - outright lies are (generally) bad for your public image.

This is like the old "AI will blackmail to keep its job", and the original prompt was something akin to "Do whatever is necessary to not be replaced." While I doubt they outright told it to lie, the goal was explicitly to persuade individuals.

This also highlights the same stuff we regularly see in AI spaces - training matters, and GIGO. The abstract for the Science paper specifically indicates that "information-dense models" were the ones more likely to make untrue statements. The abstract for the Nature paper indicated that the right-leaning agent made more untrue statements.

Comment Re:Canada doesn't have the same luxury (Score 2) 166

I am using Public Mobile and my Poco F3 is not in their whitelist but I can "bypass the carrier check" and have VoLTE, it works fine. A lot of carrier can be bypassed.

But some like Rogers or Fido will block your IMEI or charge you 75$/month if your phone is not in their list, this is unacceptable.

Comment Re:AI is much better as an aid (Score 2, Insightful) 211

This is exactly the issue - AI is great, as an intern.

"Oh, this new thing lets it see the whole project in context!" - Great, then why did it just add a bunch of functions that already exist? Also, why did it do that in a completely inappropriate spot?

"You just need to write a better prompt. You can even define style guides and stuff." - Great. Will that make it stop checking if that value that I clearly defined is null every freaking line?

"It's just following best practices." - No. It's following a path it found through all the StackOverflow questions it trained on in order to get to something that aligned with a vector representing something approximating the tokens associated with my question because it DOESN'T ACTUALLY THINK!

All of this is the type of crap an intern does. Except an intern actually learns, and you can start trusting them with more.

Comment Flavor Ade (Score 2) 211

It feels like a really good extension of search results (hallucinations notwithstanding). I use it daily for little things...and then I go back through and clean it up to be actually usable. But I hate that when I try to point things like that out, I get responses like, "Oh, you just need a better prompt." These are people who couldn't do a proper Google search just a couple years ago, but they're suddenly a full blown engineer.

On top of that, I've got people I know who have ceded all their thinking ability to ChatGPT, and it's resulted in them sounding like an idiot. One of my supervisors styles himself as a chemist / inventor. Mostly it's benign - he plays with mix ratios to get the result he wants. But lately, he's quite literally gotten himself into arguments with professional industrial chemists because he started letting ChatGPT do all the math and reaction calculations and he can't understand how it can be wrong.

I've got marketing contacts whose eyes lose focus on a Zoom meeting because they're asking ChatGPT how to do the thing we're talking about, and then instead of asking appropriate follow-up questions to the group, they start spouting nonsense.

The thing I keep going back to is this: "In your own area of expertise, when you ask it questions, you can readily see the shortcomings. Why then do you treat it as gospel when asking about areas outside of your expertise?"

Don't get me wrong - I *do* think it's impressive. *Quite* impressive. But in real world scenarios I see it fail *all the time*, and everyone needs to stop pretending that this isn't happening.

Comment Re:Do you need gigabit to a household? (Score 2) 110

Working from home, as a contractor, so always connected to client via VPN. A contract could be done with a 1MB link because there is about no comm needed, another contract for a broadcasting company required downloading/uploading gigs and gigs of video per day and the gigabit link makes a big difference here.

Comment Father of the Smart Phone here, yeah it's time (Score 1) 14

Father of the Smart Phone - Jim Sager Know how poor Steve Jobs stole the Mac design from rich Xerox.
They never tell you that RICH STEVE JOBS stole the Smart Phone from a poor undergrad... but the story's coming out, and it's why Warren Buffet sold his stock, why everyone's backing away.
I could have sued for about 100 million dollars for the past 20 years, but I didn't want money... When I designed the Smart Phone in 2000, I saw it would lead to the rise of the surveillance state and waited til now for maximum impact.

Be aware Tim Cook knows Steve Jobs robbed me and refuses to honor me, but plays the Tyrant card. Steve Robs for Tim Crook.
Warren Buffet sold his stock directly in response to me contacting his lawyers once and twice.
The papers are copyrights signed by Carnegie Mellon. They invalidate most of Apple and Google's Smart Phone patents.
When you rally behind Jim Sager (goodnewsjim) you're rallying for a free and open world that says no to Big Brother Apple who turned people into governments and fought vs American free speech.
A choice is to be made by the Shareholders & Tim Crook:
I'm the past genius behind Apple.
I could be the Future of Apple or the End of Apple.
Watch the Video
I'm the Father of the Smart Phone.
I'm the reason Apple was a success in the past.
THIS IS NOT A JOKE!!! YOU CAN VERIFY THE DESIGNS and they're signed by Carnegie Mellon.
I'm getting bigger and bigger press: YouTube
This is good for this forum as you have the brains behind Steve Jobs posting here.
This is good for the Apple Community because I designed all the major features of the original iPhone/SmartWatch/Vision Pro.
No more trash designs.
I'm the man Steve Jobs robbed of over 100+ designs.
I forged a 5 trillion Apple Smart Phone Empire and 3 trillion for Google, not counting 3rd party devs.
I could have sued Apple/Google for tens of millions for decades, but waited til the full on Big Brother state came in...
I'm here to sweep in and save them from going full Orwellian boot stomping.
I'm here to save Apple from lack of creativity in design.
I could be the Future of Apple or the End of Apple.
The choice is up to the Shareholders & Tim Crook who cost his company close to 1 trillion fighting me instead of honoring me.
