Well, they might let me remember people's names. There are probably other uses, but that's the one that occurs to me.

I accept that it is breaking the law. That doesn't mean any official is going to enforce that law. There are lots of laws that are frequently broken in obvious ways, and are enforced only when it is a convenient excuse.

How far in the future?
I can imagine useful AI based "smart glasses", but that description doesn't fit what I've heard so far, and my prescription means I couldn't try them if I wanted to do so.

he'll bear the shame for the rest of his life one day.

That reminds me of an actual deployment. USAF, our backup generator had a blown regulation system. Our solution was literally that whenever we had to go onto it, we'd station an airman at the generator manually turning the adjustment knobs to keep it at 240V@60Hz.

Except going to a web site on a mobile phone and trying to find anything useful is too difficult. Simply asking for the information is far easier.

If you're on a real computer then it's a bit easier, assuming there's any semblance of competency to the web site.

If it's doing auto-transcription it's probably training an AI with your information, This could be a major security problem.

It's annoying, but good, because "there's a sucker born every minute" means there are always new victims who haven't been warned.

There have been lots of instances where companies with a "good reputation" changed their spots.

Even though I have a subscription. I cannot stand having to sit through ads anymore.

If I paste an image into Writer, the right and bottom sides of the image have thin gray lines, but not left and top. Can't get rid of them, either.

This does not happen if I paste the same image into Word so it's obviously related to Writer.

The type of image doesn't matter (jpg, png, etc). It happens to all of them.

Bullshit web two-oh and AI jobs.

Of course they need proficiency in slop generators.

If you have dementia, you probably won't have a choice.

The post at the top of the thread was about "AI". The following posts were about AI. Don't be blinded by the current hype into thinking that;s the whole picture. Just because other developments get less press doesn't mean they aren't happening and aren't important. In the field of biochem, most AI is *related* to LLMs, but is significantly different.

LLMs are not equivalent to AIs, they are a subset. Don't take LLMs as a complete model of the capabilities of AIs.
