Steam decks aren't the iPhone of gaming handhelds. They are another in a long line of them, i.e. another Palm Pilot.

This is a particularly lazy article. I expected Friedersdorf to engage at least perfunctorily with drug laws or seatbelt laws, but no, just a bunch of trying to troll the libs. Here's something else that's argument-destroying: the

A million percent. I would love to offload the shit parts of SWE to a model. But models are wildly unreliable (hallucination rates are sky high, insignificant differences in prompts create hugely different output, etc) so I can't trust

Beyond the face that these are all already highly automated, this isn't what TFA is saying. People aren't angry there are planting machines or whatever; they're angry they're forced to forego anything you can't put

Hallucination benchmarks accept "I don't know", which Haiku did at least a little. Here are other benchmarks corroborating: https://suprmind.ai/hub/ai-hallucination-rates-and-benchmark...

This is absurdly one-sided. The "report" is just a summary of internet articles, two of which are from The Guardian itself, which makes this some weird content laundering situation. It also--obviously on purpose--leaves out IDF&

We should consider how we came to be so powerless. The cringe "people gave their lives for that flag" line is actually true, and we're trading it away for what? Not having to get out of our gaming chairs? The reason you can&#
