An important conversation on the economic and political implications of AI, spooky because that's the nature of what's at stake. Should we have open-source civic AI that's dedicated to your personal thriving? https://t.co/J8kwKotdaw #AI#economy#technology#beyonduniversalincome
@thebeaconsignal@sama Perfect, even though it was also written by AI. You can tell by the structure of the argument. About 3/5 of the way through you get the typical "it's not just X, it's Y" and that's your dead ringer. Perhaps while criticizing AI, refrain from so obviously using it in your reply.
Windows 10 rides off into the sunset today 🌅

We found a troubling emergent behavior in LLM.
💬When LLMs compete for social media likes, they start making things up
🗳️When they compete for votes, they turn inflammatory/populist
When optimized for audiences, LLMs inadvertently become misaligned—we call this Moloch’s Bargain
What will you do when #Windows "judgement day" comes? We who already made it to the other side welcome you with open arms. Several distributions are super easy to use and non invasive, unlike some mainstream OSes we could mention... #linux#maketheswitch#oneofus#opensource
My #homeschooling teens have not been respecting the need to do creative or educational or productive work when it's "normal" school hours - and my router could block but not schedule it. So I set up an #AdGuard server on my old Lenovo paperweight and it barely takes any power!
Are you ready for #deadinternettheory to become a living virtual reality? Do you believe in dead internet theory? Do you want to know more about it? If you didn't know, it's the idea that as AI grows its presence, less and less of what you experience online will be human based.
@NoMansSky NMS has withstood the test of time because of a consistent commitment to upgrades and not sacrificing older hardware to the false gods of Planned Obsolescence ("boo! hiss!"). And just being a generally amazing concept and game...
@Malwarebytes Actually rather pleased at the amount of people who use Malwarebytes' anti-malware (aka, smart people) who are Android customers. Take that, iPhone. And yet, I admit, even the Apple "pod people" need adequate security! For those uninitiated - yes your phone needs protection too!
Rescued this ancient Lenovo with some kind of Celeron dorito in it, was designed for windows 8 but actually runs half usably with #LinuxMint, even better if I put a m.2 drive in and give it some more virtual ram on the solid state. It only has 2gb ram with no upgrades allowed #PC
No it's not a #computer but it is #technology and it has a fan so the same principles apply.. this one had a tarantula of cathair and clothing fibers and cobwebs in it. Unfortunately even after cleaning it was too late for this one, the overheating from lack of airflow killed it.
