Isn’t there also some Firefox AI integration that’s being tested by one dev out there? I forgot the name and wonder if it got any traction.

And what your phone can’t do will be offloaded to servers. Meaning your phone can do a lot and an M1 processor isn’t necessarily a waste.

It doesn’t need to be a desktop. The point is they make their phones overpowered because nighttime operations while on a charger need that extra juice.

Think of all the accessories they could sell though to make that work! God knows Apple loves to sell accessories and marks them up quite high.

It almost definitely does and probably always runs at a fraction of that speed while using up the battery. Even current gen phones don’t do face recognition unless you’re connected to a charger.

Except what would have been a Mac mini plugged into your router is now handheld and way less janky than needing the user to maintain two separate devices.

Yea but I can tell you based on experience that there’s definitely that top tier of people who care about this stuff and comment very thoughtfully that has disappeared from the platform. I routinely see wrong answers or just bad comments bu

OP isn’t arguing about volume. Of course there’s more food today, and it probably is thanks to cheap processed foods that we can have so much of it. But in solving scarcity we invented new problems.

You can’t overturn that argument with a one dimensional quip about fortified foods not existing. Imagine a diet with less sugar, more whole foods _and_ fortification?

The language spec was so good I was able to make tangible contributions to an open source project just by using that and I don’t consider myself a go programmer at all. I want to buy that book but it’s technical and I feel like there might

What a shallow dismissal of a comment that doesn’t even claim that there shouldn’t be accountability.

Like anything open source it allows you to know and see exactly what your machine is doing. I don’t want to speculate too much but I remember there being discussions around whether or not nvidia could embed licensing checks and such at the

That is both impressive and disappointing. I'm so used to seeing large corporations publishing AI models and other techniques (like Ghidra) that I assumed a finding like that would be disseminated to the public. But you're right,

Wouldn’t it likely originate from academia? If so you can bet that the work will be published just like this one.

It’s become a liability. Hey siri, turn on the AC! Proceeds to call someone I’ve been texting whose name sounds nothing like anything in that phrase.

If they cared about privacy they could have easily hosted the data encrypted with a key only known to the user rendering subpoenas useless for that service.

Oh I totally agree. In fact I think it should be prioritized.

That change is hilarious. So many potentially goofy reasons for it happening but my best take is google deciding not to host any data it can’t mine or use. The privacy policy on location history was quite good and effectively granted users

Those aren’t mutual exclusive. In fact having healthcare not be gated to the single few that can afford it might accelerate the process of fixing the issues around pricing.

Is that universal healthcare with extra steps? Almost, but on a serious note, why not go all the way with universality?

Can you do this with every website in the world?? I’m kidding of course but man, it pains me to browse the web as it is today knowing that things could be “this good”. I just tried it and it was an amazing experience.
