Reply to comment by OverthinkingMadMan in Brain implant startup backed by Bezos and Gates is testing mind-controlled computing on humans by Melodic-Work7436
Say what now ?! Do u know that, the Melinda gates foundation actually called for no vaccines for covid, loobbyed the prices to be jacked up all over the world, they call up for population decrease. I’m just naming a few.
Regardless of musk going out of his way, 2 things he is specially good at is beeing honest and he is actually smart. Now when he talks anything besides tech. I usually don’t listen because he has his opinions that I do not relate to. But just for u to compare, musk says the one of the biggest problems humanity faces is the birthdate, Melinda gates they back scientific docs that support the decrease of humans.
Just like BP SHELL and other big oils , supported scientific docs saying the global warming didn’t exist.
You now “kinda see” that track cuz it’s what they want u to see ;)

Definitely, I think they kinda pioneered the idea of game time cards. IIRC it had something to do with Europe and not being able to charge to CC at the time of launch. Apparently the codes were created through random mouse movement and it was all done manually for launch.

Which has what exactly to do with my point? And Musk has less of an agenda? If you look at the track record it would seem Gates has an agenda of making the world better and Musk a track record of just wanting to get his way. So if I had to choose..

I loved the demo I played years ago, but it was a single map and one dungeon. It has promise, but I highly suspect they will fuck it up

We don’t have the social reform necessary to even have robots replace our jobs. Detroit become human is probably the closest we’ll get.

Same here, learnt smelting and blacksmithing and made a shiny set of black armour, lost it to a PK about 4 minutes later in a cave about fifty steps out of town!

> Marconi said he asked the chatbot for a list of news sources it was trained on and received a response naming 20 outlets.
I see absolutely no reason to think that ChatGPT can answer this question accurately, and expect that it is hallucinating this answer. Its training process isn’t something it “remembers” like someone would remember their time in high school. Instead, its thought process is more like “what would a conversational response from a language model look like?”
That’s not to say that it wasn’t trained on those sources, but you have to understand the limitations of the model. Asking it about its training process is like asking a human about their evolutionary history. Unless they’ve been explicitly taught about that, they just don’t know.

Is Tiktok really full of spyware? Are there reliable sources on this?
I could easily see this being a fake news ploy by Meta to get rid of some competition. Especially now that they start to sell Premium subscriptions.

It's the same argument that artist's complaining about using copyrighted artwork as training data.
At some point there will be a major ruling about how companies training AI need to approach copyright for their training data sources, and if they rule in favour of copyright holders it will probably severely slow AI progress as systems to request permission are built.
Although I could maybe see a fine-tuned AI like bing being less affected because it cites sources rather than opaquely uses previously acquired knowledge

Lol maybe AI doesn't replace human labor all by itself, but when you add robots it does.

Reply to comment by Patient-Avocado1329 in Only 50% of iPhone Casings Made in India Meet Apple's Quality Standards by Majnum
I'll be candid, haven't read the article, but I work in Manufacturing of large equipment, and when I first saw this headline I thought "50%? That's pretty good."
Apple has rigorous standards especially on the outer casing because that is so core to the brand's image. There's a reason every phone kinda looks iphoneish with the camera bumps, the upper left hand corner, etc.
This is double edged sword for India's manufacturing. They're newer to this sector and standards AND they're adhering to apple's standards. 50% is damn good for a first go around.

I don’t see racism, that’s a lazy defence.
What I can see is that India has a similar problem to most developed countries. Skilled workers are now expensive, the cheaper workers they can afford to employ are not particularly good.
Same thing would happen in France, Canada, etc. you can’t afford to deliver the quality because the market won’t provide the correct workers for the budget.
The reason people are interested is because Vietnam, Brazil and Indonesia are starting to fill the gap of low price product production. People are watching to see if India can shift to skilled specialist manufacturing, or will fail the transition.

The issue 100% comes back to quality control. The Japanese car makers figured this out a long time ago and pioneered putting quality control into the qualification process from the start. Tons of time and money is now invested in the qualification steps before production even starts on most manufacturing done for automotive and medical devices, as well as a lot more but it's a little less strict.

It may be more like a way to keep shareholders from complaining that they're not trying to make a buck. If Meta didn't try to exploit this new revenue stream Musk revealed, there'd be questions.
