If I post something publically I'm fine with everyone being able to use it for AI and other data mining. But I'm not ok for a single company only to benefit. And definitely not to sell my public data. I'm looking at you reddi

Personally I'd rather they force these companies to provide a reasonably priced alternative to ads. I want to have the option to allow companies to use my data for AI. I think AI can be a net boon to society if managed right. But ads a

Which is what I'm say is wrong. If the oversight on insurance and other companies is lacking, it needs to be improved across the board not just with lip service to the popular technology of the day. The bias inherent is the exist risk

No, typically these sorts of models would not be trained on reddit, they would be trained on historical data that insurance companies and lending companies have. For example, a famous case is where they used AI to help decide if people will

It's unfortunate that these laws focus on AI. Why isn't it illegal to use traditional algorithms that have bias? Why aren't there regulations ensuring bias testing when humans themselves make decisions? In all cases the bias

Sure, putting files on a CDN is very cheap. But, point of sales is a massive pain in the ass. Updates are a massive pain in the ass, notifying users of updates and security patches, not to mention marketing. These things are such a huge pai

Realtime collaborative _thing_. It's super clear. Trying to steal a term already used to mean other things, namely playing video games with more than one person, is a terrible idea. You have words already that mean what you want, and e

Our industry does itself a huge disfavour with these gimmicky terms. When you can substitute your buzzword of the day with a traditional word that everyone will instantly understand, well, this is where buzzword bingo criticisms come from.

In the world of physical products, brick and mortar stores will take 40-50% of the revenue for selling your product. This is the norm. Even worse, production, shipping, and accounting all also cost vastly more. So while the 30% take of the

To be fair the US also can't make Nvidia GPUs and neither can anyone outside of Taiwan. Agreed that IP isn't everything but the chip shortage during covid sure as hell WAS a wake up call to the west. Now they are finding that actu

Perhaps they should start with "undergrad level abilities." Pretty sure even undergrads can write a paper without made up references.

"Play that game"? They are not somehow bluffing or threatening this simply to try to change the law. It's a principled stance that they simply cannot provide E2E encrypted chat under such conditions. So either they break thei

Here is a simple example. If you made your website only work in say, Microsoft Edge, and blocked everyone else telling them to download Edge. I'd think you're an asshole. Whether or not being an ass is unethical I'll leave to

It was not a "concession" it was stopped by a judge issuing an injunction because the truckers were sued by locals. That lawsuit is still ongoing.

I thought that was only if you accept a "points plan" of some sort, which, of course we all do. :-/ Aeroplan is a great example of this too. No one ever asks what they are giving up for aeroplan. The answer is your entire pur

Shopify did very well connecting small makers/vendors to customers. Granted, to your point they are now trying to go for big vendors, thinking they can somehow unseat amazon. Probably won't work out well for them either.

Nothing about this is "AI controls guns/bombs/nukes." The AI simply gives predictions that humans must decide to accept or reject. And no, I don't buy at all that people on the ground in an active war scenario wou

That must clearly be true, but I'd like cars to driver better than humans and make use of all the tech that we can't. Academically vision only is an interesting feat, and as a backup mode for when sensors fail it makes sense to

What an utterly hostile and naive view. We need rental buildings and thus we need landlords. There are many many scenarios where one may want to rent instead of buy. You need a place only for a few years, you need a place while you explore

I'm not convinced that is actually true. Can you think of an example? A game that has near universally good reviews but is not successful?
