@hennie_booboo My anxiety levels just spiked

[Mark Gadala-Maria @markgadala]

This is wild.

143 million people thought they were catching Pokémon. They were actually building one of the largest real-world visual datasets in AI history.

Niantic just disclosed that photos and AR scans collected through Pokémon Go have produced a dataset of over 30 billion real-world images. The company is now using that data to power visual navigation AI for delivery robots.

Players didn't just walk around with their phones. They scanned landmarks, storefronts, parks, and sidewalks from every angle, at every time of day, in lighting and weather conditions that staged photography would never capture. They documented the physical world at a scale no mapping company with a fleet of vehicles could have replicated on the same timeline or budget.

Niantic collected this systematically, data point by data point, across eight years, while users thought the only thing at stake was catching a rare Charizard.

The most valuable AI training datasets in the world aren't being assembled in data centers. They're being built by people who have no idea they're building them.

@g_tone_ @vumatel @VoxTelecom Sadly, @Vumatel is the issue here, Vox have been very responsive, but this issue is with the infrastructure that any other ISP would have to rely on.

[Steven Bosch @StevenBosch]

Hey @vumatel it is now day 5 of waiting for you to call to restore my FTTH service in Melville. I have had no contact despite the ticket being assigned 4 days ago. Is this your standard of customer service? @voxtelecom

[Steven Bosch @StevenBosch]

This issue was apparently escalated to "management" and even then there has been no movement. What does it take to resolve this?

[Steven Bosch @StevenBosch]

@rainSouthAfrica my internet has become increasingly slower. Currently feels like it's the 90's in terms of speed, are there coverage issues in Melville JHB?

I can definitely confirm that COVID-19 immunity either as result of vaccine or natural immunity (result from previous infection) does not last for more than 12 months. So protect yourself&your love one by been vaccinated or get booster!

When I joined Twitter 12 years ago, it sure looked different. Must say, even though I'm quiet around here, I think it might be the most impactful platform these days. It's all about where you focus. #MyTwitterAnniversary
