The WhatsApp business app uses E2E encryption just like the consumer app, so I don't see how that could be the case.

I suppose they figured it would cause a lot of upset if they didn't provide a grace period to accept the new terms (and clearly that would have been the case, based on the reaction so far). Consider that people rely on WhatsApp for ess

Aren't the positive performance reviews such an indication?

What if you are using SLF4J as a front-end to log4j, does it escape these special strings before passing them to the logging system?

Encryption over the wire and at rest is a basic expectancy of any web service today. They would meet that criteria just by using SSL and disk encryption on their servers. E2EE is a much stronger criteria.

Software can't execute itself. It must be executed by an external agent and given some kind of input. That will be true regardless of whether you consider the software to be a true AGI or a mere language model. So what does it mean exa

The only thing here that current language models objectively don't have is a persistent memory. GPT-3 already uses 2048 tokens of context as input, but it's not persistent. An improved language model would likely need to have pers
