Nothing like handing your kids right over the corps early on. But since it means growth for AI companies, it's obviously great and we should all be on board with it!

Your kids only have a short span of time when they're growing up to not be turned into brain-damaged lunatics from feeding nonsense into their heads. This is a wet dream for the psychopaths at the top of AI companies.

Get a real job.

According to the story, the only group that appeared to actually like this new UI were Gen Z. For everyone else, "Yes, change is scary". Apparently, that's how you deal with people that don't want a device that they may have paid 4-figures for that now looks like a child's toy.

Why is tech change always forced on people? Is there a cultural issue where having something that works and does what someone wants is now something that has to be changed?

Probably should test the AI in Dev before moving it to Prod..

Good Lord.....so a completely new person that doesn't know jack shit about the workplace or their new career, is going to be 'managing'.

I didn't even need to read the rest of the AI drivel. That was enough right there to show was a dumbass idea this is.

..without telling us that you're doing coke all day.

When someone does a reboot movie of 'Seven Brides for Seven Brothers', or 'Oklahoma!', I expect that all of the horses will be replaced with Hummer EVs.

What will all of this data center space be used for after AI is done? Should it go back to bitcoin mining, or will it be ad farms for FB? Or will it just be sold off to companies like Tierpoint to re-purpose as....real data centers?

Is it just me, or do tech companies just say whatever the Hell that they feel like saying that positions them to scam people, without even trying to hide it? In the past, the scam was hidden at least a little bit.

Actually, yes. I have heard of this happening. Although, they'll have to find a new app besides TikTok, now.

It never mattered if women messaged first. They'd just send a handwave emoji or a 'Hi', and the system would allow it

Bumble's problem remains the same - the users suck. And until they do something about that, nothing is going to change. Half of the people you see were already married, another group was looking for a third, and there was an abundance of overweight single moms looking for top 1% men. Not a recipe for success.

This reminds me of the people that want to spend 5 figures on a solar install, so that they can have 'free' electricity. The capital expenditure itself has no meaning. At least if you stay in the house 20 years, you'll break even and even save some money. If you're buying an EV to save money as an Uber driver, you're then committing to driving for years. Which I guess can be an option.

But the hybrid is better. Still electrifies 80%+ or more of the driving, without the hassle of needing public chargers. But I know, ICE engines need constant maintenance and break down every 12 miles, and are our wayyyyy to complex to drive on public roads. They cost $20k/year to keep running, and no one can fix them anymore.

The overwhelming complexity of modern OS and cell phones, that do need constant fixing/patching/maintenance, though, is okay.

Compiling was even more fun. Once you made it through 'make menconfig' to configure your kernel options/modules, I think it was 'make zImage' or something like that to actually start the kernel compile. On an old 486SX with little ram, it would run for 3-4 days.

So, what I have learned from this, having seen this at -1 Troll, at one point, is that going on a date, having a drink, and having fun makes you a person who makes bad decisions. Got it.

You're projecting. People can have fun drinking, even more so when they are happy.
