Comment I wonder if Dell scored any marks for its answer (Score 3, Interesting) 105

Dell tried its hand at an answer to Apple Neo, also with Windows OS. Consumers now have 2 answers to choose from. But I wonder if these companies know what the question really is.

People produced more children in the past, in the hope of getting out of their financial woes. They sent off their kids as child labor, to add a little more to the family income. More kids = more income. So there was an incentive to produce more kids.

Now kids cannot legally work until they are 16+. And parents are required to provide for them, care for them, educate them... So more kids = more expenditure = sure way to get into poverty. Kids are a liability.

Comment This is what Anthropic & OpenAI have been warn (Score 1) 104

This is exactly what all those researchers and whistleblowers at Anthropic and OpenAI have been blowing. When they said AI "superintelligence" is going to kill all humanity by the end of this decade, it's these AI hoaxes that they were exactly talking about. Someone named Coxon recently was so annoyed by the "supertintelligent" AI responses at Anthropic, that he quit from his job. He warned us all that enough is not being done at Anthropic and OpenAI to stop taking their models seriously. He even went so far as to say, "This not a marketing stunt."

If we continue taking the "AI" seriously, we risk triggering a 3rd world war.

Jensen: Burn as much money as you can buying my hardware at grossly inflated prices. I am enjoying it. If you slow down, China is going to come from behind and bite your butt off. So you better run as fast as you can to save your butt.

Amodei: I need a break, cannot run anymore. I am running out of all the borrowed money to this hardware shark. I can only slowdown if everyone else slows down. Else I risk being trampled by all those who are chasing me. Please stop! [pulls out a white cloth tied to the end of a stick. No takers]

Haha haha... nice situation.

Otherwise the thing can connect to any open wifi, or a neighbors LG TV or smart washing machine or smart microwave and still spy on you. LG smart devices are really smart these days, unlike the buyers. They create an ad-hoc mesh network among themselves and will eventually find a way to still connect to the internet, all without your knowledge.

The only way is to open up the TV unit and physically disable the WiFi module with a soldering iron. If you really think you need the "smarts" in your TV in the future, you can solder it back.

You should watch out for these LG wares in the future!
