It really doesn't matter who is worse morally here, just both situations are bad for consumer choice. I find it amazing that Apple things it is okay to attempt to take 15% of Audible revenue if they allowed you to buy books in the app,

When the following works I'll be impressed: "ChatGPT can you explain possible ways to make fusion power efficient for clean free energy production given the known and inferred laws of physics?" and it actually produces a new

Only Twitter could do this. The security services could ask Twitter for anything they like it doesn’t mean they are getting it. Or that the requests from politicians are bad either. Each case would need to be reviewed on its individual meri

I think all the story was is that people from both political parties and the FBI were trying to take down disinformation. Sometimes Twitter agreed to these requests other times they did not. What I am surprised about is the attempt to turn

Oh, him with his Twitter Files nonsense that he was pretending was a story.

Is this a reliable source? Are there many nefarious people out there wanting power and influence? If there was a time for this to happen COVID would have been an ideal cover, but instead the illuminati will be switching on the 5G control sy

Would it be possibly to have whole fleets of constantly flying planes assuming the fuel burden wasn't too much, I can think of a few high value areas where it might be worth the deterrent capability of always having a fair few planes c

Would be interesting to check with a suitably trained LLM if our understand of historical wording is actually correct. Whole parts of history might be written down but lost in translation if you see what I'm saying...

You can easily guess, the issue is with being correct...

I’m not sure the gods human being have made so far have done anything apart from persuade people to kill each other over scratchy bits of land. Whether feeling-less AGI will be better for us primates is very uncertain!

Are you really saying Google can't spend $60m or much more to compete? Again if it is so easy as spending money on compute Amazon and Google would have just spent the money by now and Bard would be as good as Chat GPT, but for most thi

Maybe all this will teach people that having a weird corporate structure can make everything worse, not better.

What do other realtime OS kernels do when printing from various places? It almost seems like this should be done in hardware because it's such a difficult problem to not lose messages but also have them on a different OS thread in most

Yes, it is extremely slow right now! I think they need some spinner on the UI because I thought it was just broken and kept writing more questions which probably increases the load further.

I predict a return to private communities on the Internet and bulletin boards where verified humans hang out, away from the rest of the garbage the Internet will become filled with.

Depends how those market turbulences occur, for example a Chinese invasion of Taiwan will be a disaster for Apple.

If you want the best people to work in an area you need to pay them. I'm surprised given the possible returns these aren't seven figure jobs.

Companies are not people either but have claimed all the same rights as us legally (and more). I'm unsure if AI should be able to do this hence the badly received question! I think everyone has their disgust triggered by the idea of AI

Hire the best (search) people, give them all the resources you can and leave them alone. They should come up with the plan, not the CEO.

We were told at Yahoo! that it was pointless to compete with Google and Microsoft at search because Yahoo! were not willing to put in the money to have their own search engine. At the time they were still the most popular webpage on the Int
