A torrent app will put government will to the test. I have no doubt citizens will want this, but governments are bought and paid for by many corporate interests, and those interests dislike torrent apps, whether they're used for things that aren't yet owned, but especially for things that are.
This is slashdot, there's no room for nuance on AI. Obviuosly the AI did what it was supposed to do, the person in question had made up his mind. End of sad story.
A kid around the corner did this just last week, I'm told that he'd been telling actual humans he was going to do it for a while, and they didn't believe him. But he did, and we're not able to sue Texas government for its abuse of trans-kids, even though arguably they're more deliberately motivating suicides than AI.
Mom and dad should be more focused on helping get mental health access for teens than worrying about Scam Altman.
You can't blame society, people are people. Ragebait, trolling and "that guy who is so wrong on the internet that I can't not flame him" have been around forever. The issue is that engagement is easily measured, but engagement does not equate to quality. If we had a way of assessing quality that was reliable, we could probably have social media websites that aren't trash.
Not if you just paid $3M for a 1ksqft box in the silicon valley, then it's really bad news.
Who will work the field for the lord?
Things that guarantee fake:
1) Real name required
2) Job recruitment focus
There's no way it was ever going to be anything but fake.

Brilliant idea, drawn on from the classics of computer programming literature. But let's instead use Rust, the choice of the next generation!
fn main() {
println!("Hello, world!");
}

You're absolutely correct! I am partially funded by Microsoft, and American Standard, America's top crapper!
I don't have to imagine it, the constant buzz of people sitting in offices they don't need on webex's with people in offices anywhere from 1 mile to 10,000 miles away, all day, every day provides a good synthesizer.
Now multiply that by 10.
I work for a FAANG, we did previously exclude recent college grads from universities we considered "top" in the field, although Harvard, Princeton and Yale were not on that list. However that policy was eventually forced out, both because such people didn't want to work for "the man" in a non-executive capacity, and because they were often unwilling to do grunt work. It's possible this was considered a feature of the hiring process, I can't confirm it. I am not going to say what kind of executive tends to favor prestigious schools and people with top marks from prestigious schools, but I am sure everyone can guess.
We ended up doing very well just hiring qualified people with the proper degrees and backgrounds who simply enjoyed what they were doing (which of course, we grind right out of them)

I don't see a world where AI replaces or diminishes display based devices, what kind of dumbass question is that?

Reasonable people understand that AI is a very powerful tool for a wide number of tasks that will substantially improve personal productivity. Reasonable people also know it's not taking anyone's job any time soon.
Reasonable people are not driving any of the conversations around AI right now.
Of all the kiss-cam memes on the internet, I have not yet seen that one. But the world needs it.
