I can’t really stand behind and defend boycotting every defense tech investor.

I can. Easily.

By that metric, you can argue Kasparov isn’t thinking during chess

Kasparov’s thinking fits pretty much all biological definitions of thinking. Which is the entire point.

That entire paragraph is much better at supporting the precise opposite argument. Computers can beat Kasparov at chess, but they’re clearly not thinking when making a move - even if we use the most open biological definitions for thinking.

Apple is significantly behind and arrived late to the whole AI hype, so of course it’s in their absolute best interest to keep showing how LLMs aren’t special or amazingly revolutionary.

They’re not wrong, but the motivation is also pretty clear.

Consequences will never be the same

Certainly depends on where you live.

Unlocking a Samsung phone is trivial here.

not generations before

If by “Generations” you mean the literal previous generation that was advertised as backwards compatible and where many of the games won’t receive specific patches precisely because running natively and better was one of the key features of the new console… Sure, I guess.

with consoles, it’s 100% of the time

Several Switch 1 games are facing issues on Switch 2, including broken textures, crashes and weird behavior. This whole “consoles are 100%!” idea has been dead since the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 generation.

Making up scenarios and claiming to know what the response would be sure is a way to make an argument.

I mean, the worse most laughable way, but it’s a way indeed.

How easy is installing something like Graphene on a Fairphone compared to a Pixel?

So should Walmart stop selling products that I deem unfit based on my personal preferences too? Say goodbye to animal fats, products made in the US, ultra processed foods, some fruit I just don’t like the taste of, all Nestlé products…

I think you get the point.

I couldn’t give less of a fuck about any company or their “projects”, selling a product is not a mission to empower users and help the world or some bullshit like that.

What’s Steam got to do with Borderlands 2 having a rootkit?

Nope. They just don’t know what they’re talking about, something unfortunately common when talking about Proton.

LLMs can’t describe themselves or their internal layers. You can’t ask ChatGPT to describe it’s censorship.

Instead, you’re getting a reply based on how other sources in the training set described how LLMs work, plus the tone appropriate to your chat.

To be fair, smart background removal was a feature from Picasa over a decade ago. We just didn’t call everything “AI” to make shareholders happy.

The promise was that people would literally stop going to real life music shows to watch them on Second Life, buying fake cans of sponsored Coca-Cola and inviting friends to one night stands on their digital flats. Going on for 20 years is not the norm, but not unusual either - RuneScape is older and my neighbors have no idea what it is.

The reality is that we forgot about the game in less than two years and the surviving community is small, even if they pay a lot.

That’s exactly what’s going to happen to AI agents promising to replace an entire department or the creative team in a studio.

Dude trust me bro this plot of land on Second Life will be worth more than your house in the future, this is the world wide web bro

The lobotomized chimp with a typewriter trained on internet comments is now reproducing internet commentary? I’m shocked!
