gives you poor service when they "flagged you as a low-profit customer."

friend, it claimed to be running Windows 11 pro.
When he registered it, it created a local account. It made no attempt to link to a Microsoft account or create one.

Your car battery can make up for the lack of battery storage in the grid.

all they did was reduce it from 3 slots to 2.

You left out a word.

called slavery.
They could even "make their own" by getting babies.

We don't let them do that for good reason.

I don't feel comfortable with corporations owning sentient beings, artificial or real!

We've gone from a 6502 with 3000 transistors in it to an NVidia half tensor unit with 100 billion transistors (double for the whole tensor unit).
I like to imagine that one say someone will make a computer with a different computing model where every memory cell will have it's own processor.
So maybe something like that?

Now I find the ending very disturbing.
The hacker was found burned to death by the side of the road.
And the CIA gave Clifford a party with a cake and all.

book. I guess it was back in the '90s and I was in Cody's Books in Berkeley.
He and someone else were looking for a book on information theory and I directed them to the right shelf.
He handed me his book, said "I wrote this, buy it!"
It was a good book, but the ending was disturbing.
He was an astronomy student at Berkeley, and in a CS class his professor told him that there was some wrong with the logs on one of their computers and he wanted him to figure out what was going on.
He found that someone was breaking into the computer - I'm not sure if the internet was a thing back then, but someone was breaking into computer networks and using dialouts (he found that the CIA's computers had a dialout bank he could break into) and was going through all kinds of computer systems looking for military information, and Clifford followed him.
He kept calling up agencies telling them that their systems were being broken into and this was all so new that no one knew what to do and no one was tasked with security.
So... eventually it was traced to someone in Eastern Germany.
The CIA threw him a party with a cake and all, which was a bit weird for a Berkeley hippy type.
The NSA had him give a talk.
But in the end the spy was found burned to death by the side of the road.
So. Yeah. I guess we weren't playing.

AI artists will refuse to draw guns.

Elon is 100% correct that OpenAI betrayed its founding document, but I don't see how that translates to a civil suit.

I believe they gave it the ability to turn tokens back into words, but since they didn't give it the ability to rewrite it can't hit 100.

People "hit 100" by altering the way they usually write.

They write something then clean it up to add or remove words, even if they're talented enough and do it in their heads.

The AI can't do that, it was never allowed to alter what it already wrote.
It was never allowed to write and re-write.

They could add those abilities, but they haven't.

writing.

A human can write an outline then fill it it.
A human can write a number of things and pick the best.
A human can write then correct what they wrote.
A human can write then rewrite.

A generative AI writes one thing from start to finish and can do none of those things. If it isn't as good at writing as a human being, that could be because we made the problem harder for it.

Exactly, this is the "Generalisimo Francisco Franco is still dead" of "news".
P=NP isn't solved? You don't say!
