You are correct that renewable energy would help but if huge amounts of power are specifically being drawn for AI data centers that is part of the equation. Just like it’s reduce/reuse/recycle in that order for handling items, it should be reduce/renewable for power, and we should have to build the renewable infrastructure before building more data centers.

I don’t see any reason to believe anything currently being done is a direct path to AGI. Sam Altman and Dario Amodei are straight up liars and the fact so many people lap up their shameless hype marketing is just sad.

You can’t even replace junior devs with AI. This is a completely false narrative intended to demoralize workers into not exercising their market power.

Can we quit posting this baseless fear mongering? It is simply powerful people trying to demoralize workers and acting like it is legitimate news is playing into their hands.

Absolute favorite is probably either Bloodstained or Castlevania Portrait of Ruin. Every Metroid and Castlevania is good though. Ender Lilies, Shantae, Momodora and Alwa are some other ones I’ve really liked off the top of my head.

Not Hollow Knight, which thinks it’s clever to not fill out the map as you go unless you happen to pick the path the map dude is on. Makes me feel like my time isn’t respected which is a pet peeve of mine. Also other than bosses the combat is boring and repetitive and you don’t get stronger fast enough for revisiting areas to not be a slog.

I mostly play on PC these days but historically it was Nintendo consoles. I like exploring maps.

That setting defaults to off. Changing the default to on means new users won’t have to figure out it exists, and shows confidence in proton

Corporate greed.

I understood you perfectly, made clear by the fact you’re doing it again. You’re trying to deflect from the obvious mechanics of this endeavor (let’s just say “not deliberately” for a moment) by saying it’s too nuanced and complicated for our tiny pea brains to understand even though it’s completely obvious when you use your brain for 5 seconds.

It’s really not. You seem to be insinuating they’ll take a nuanced approach and treat different types of websites differently, but there is no reason to believe that is the case, and it’s not what they’ve been doing thus far. Espousing that Google has a sustainable long term plan for the internet that we’re too stupid to understand just makes you look ridiculous tbh

When the websites that the AI search is sourcing information from cease to exist because they don’t get enough traffic, how will AI search continue to source information?

This isn’t a hard concept…

🙄

I’m this very comment you are anthropomorphizing them by comparing them to humans again. This is exactly why they’ve chosen this specific terminology.

No it’s not. Hallucinations is marketing to make the fact that llms are unreliable sound cool. Simple as

Why give air to this shameless marketing

Without reading anything but the title - yes. I actively avoid going to restaurants that use single use plates and the like. I also take containers with me and encourage others to do so rather than using single use takeout containers for leftovers. I also am not keen on doing takeout.

The company says this is because it’s shifting its AOSP reference target from Pixel hardware to a virtual device called “Cuttlefish” to be more neutral.

This actually probably make sense, but they could still be cool and have pixel drivers be open source in a different repo if that was the only reason.

Anything being less open is sad regardless of your opinion of the hardware.

They’re still making money hand over fist. This is yet another shield for the fact that capitalism as we have implemented it is a dog shit system and we at the very least need real labor laws like a civilized fucking country

In my experience, for developers, actual productivity is inversely correlated to AI usage espousal. I straight up had an extremely mid developer tell our CFO (who has no business scheduling meetings about AI with devs in the first place) that AI made them 10x as productive. This of course is complete bullshit, and of course it got the CFO salivating. All of this is madness

I’d say something like “uhhh what’s up?” or “maybe?” and let them ask a specific question since saying yes sort of feels like agreeing to do the favor without knowing what it is first.
