$700 + $24/month subscription? Wow, that functionality better be really good.

I'm curious - why would an earbud-activated LLM be preferable to just the normal interface with typing in the request? And why GPT specifically? I can see the point with technologies that integrate directly into the surrounding environ

Well yeah, they will - if anything, because it's likely we'll have some brand new method of ingesting information available in the near future - just like smartphones replaced desktop computers that replaced physical media as the

"Phone" is a shorthand, because a ton of people seem to be using phones as their primary computing devices. They're streamlined and they have everything the average Joe could ever want - mostly a few social media apps and sim

If I'm being honest, this seems like yet another case of reading too much into AI-generated outputs.

I'd argue that the difference is the price. There is still quite a bit of a difference between average consumer and business hardware, but compute power is cheap enough that the average person can afford what was previously only reserv

I'm curious - are there any ways of finding out the precise hardware that's used in these small-scale devices that are generally not considered to be computers (like smartphone chargers) without actually having to take them apart?

I mean that "one day", that kind of thing could happen to you in particular. I know they've already been doing it to others.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think Microsoft can also do something like this, but in most cases both Google and MS will only ban the account on one service. While it's rare, it's very unnerving to think that one day, with no

I like the presentation, it's understandable and well-structured. From what I can see, Apple's guidelines look really similar to what Google suggests for Android apps - the only really big difference is visual presentation.

Given the ever-growing computing power, computation itself becoming cheaper and the extremely wide reach of information on the internet, the outcome is inevitable either way. Even if you time-traveled 10 years back and somehow erased all mo

Opening up a platform doesn't mean that it suddenly has to be cross-compatible with everything else. It just means that software that is written for your platform is no longer under full control of the manufacturer. Why wouldn't y

How can you be certain that changing this detail would result in Android failing? Was it really app sideloading and allowing other stores that made Android successful? I think the biggest contributing factor was that it was made by Google (

Not gonna lie, all of these examples are pretty weak because all of them are in circumstances that 99% of developers are never going to be in. Beeper Mini replicates native iOS functionality - it's obvious why it can only exist as an A

How exactly does this work, in your opinion? Does "The Government" (one entity) somehow decide on something like this and forces a specific judge to rule in a certain way? If something like this was uncovered, it'd be way big

Theft is the act of taking away someone else's property. "Using" (aka copying) the public data I create isn't theft, be it with my consent or without. It may be copyright infringement under certain conditions, but arguin

Does anyone here know roughly how an expert gets chosen? It seems like a very open-ended problem, and I'm not sure on how it can be implemented easily.

I don't really see how IBM would ever be able to monetize something like Deep Blue. It was a research project that was understood to not be a money-maker (outside of PR, probably), and it resulted in highly specialized hardware running

I feel like the second part is a bit exaggerated. Humans inherently also aren't "made human" by something, there's no universal standard for morals and behaviors. You could also get reasonable "murder instructions&q

I'm not OP, but I still feel kind of confused by people saying that ChatGPT is a 100% equivalent replacement for search engines. I'm not saying that LLMs aren't extremely impressive in their current stage, but that the use ca

The thing is that OpenAI doesn't have an "iPhone of AI" so far. That's not to say what will happen in the future - the advent of generative AI may become a big "equalizer" in the tech space - but no company see

I think the analogy is kind of strained here - at the current stage, OpenAI doesn't have an overwhelming superiority in quality in the same way Google once did. And, if marketing claims are to be believed, Google's Gemini appears

Deep Blue was the name of the computer itself rather than the software, but to answer your question - it didn't use machine learning, its program was written and tweaked by hand. It contained millions of different games and positions,

No one would need to control every single bit that passes through the internet. The governments would just need to force most major social media and chat platforms to let them get a peek at user data, and that'd be more than enough to

I think it's pretty reasonable to assume that a console is a standalone device. Sure, the FDS had its own games, but it inherently relies on the Famicom to function and is more or less just an upgrade kit for that console.

Ehh, these "good/bad" charts often have to follow a specific narrative to make sense, like those Windows ones that pick only certain versions among the NT and non-NT systems for it to follow the pattern. Same for Nintendo - w
