This is horrible that they have to!

I’ve read that topic so often. I start to believe it’s a military ad.

I won’t buy a phone that doesn’t have it. I hate to charge my wireless earbuds, also they break after a few years for no reason because the battery got old. So I have a physical aux headset, will last me 10 years easy and never needs charging.

BUT the other day someone suggested to just get an usb-c to aux adapter and I’ll probably do that in future if the aux connector isn’t present on the next phone.

If I’m not mistaken that image is from the Mad magazine #043 manga, from April 2002.

Also it never worked in my third party app and became some stupid placeholder scrapyard, as you couldn’t see the image.

So much this. I stopped using my Bluetooth headphones because they would connect while still inside the charging box (after done with charging). Super annoying and they’d run out of battery if I didn’t make sure to check if they had unloaded themselves from staying connected. Maybe crappy headphones design but the issue never happened when I manually unpaired them.

Reddit got more important once it Google ranked higher and the astroturfs found out, that people trust a review on Reddit inside a thread more, than multi million dollar marketing scam action, trying to game Google algorithm or other sites. The same will sooner or later happen to the fediverse if it ever grows. It’s unavoidable, sadly.

Damn, if only Spez didn’t have fucked up Reddit. I even wanted to invest in that IPO, but now I’m not going to.

Can you even give it that context, looking at security reasons? I’m not sure.

Will this lead to pirated security patches? What a strange timeline.

We already have issue to stop people believing fake news in writing form. I don’t see how we can stop people believing well made fake news with audio and video.

Personally I think every country needs some form of gov independent news media, to at least have some source of information available that is majorly trustworthy.

Everything profit oriented will result in propagation of missinformation as long as it generates clicks.

Oh and don’t let AI control weapons, worst mistake one can make. We don’t even manage self driving cars, let alone a drone with mass killing weapons.

Punishment won’t reflect the complexity anymore. Say some 14 years old creates a fake video of the president declaring war, a war happens for real because it goes viral, millions die. Is this 14 years now going to prison for life? Would a 16 or 18 years old? What I’m trying to say, the level of resistance is a totally different than picking up a gun and shooting someone. A simple bad day or a stupid child joke, soon has the power of a well planned and expensive propaganda campaign.

To block commercial products from allowing certain actions could be a start, but not a total fix. Say an AI filter for faces of public figures or keyword filters for the LLM/chatbots. Not perfect but better than nothing.

AI is very broad, you can put everything with software into that topic too. Also it’s not easy to define what is AI and what not. A rule based system is already some form of dumb AI. So every law effects pretty much everything else.

I’m pretty sure we get a shit load of unprepared governments, creating all sorts of surveillance laws. A international organisation could prevent the worst of it.

We better start educating people yesterday on how AI works, the consequences and the ways to avoid blind actions. Excuse me, we have climate to save…

Non of that is possible with FOSS AI code, if it’s out there in the web. There will only be guidelines on AI available to public and companies using AI in their products, but the rest of the more tech savvy people will be uneffected.

Maybe we need more quantity, so accuracy through the sum of probability.

You forgot drugs.

So this is how humanity will destroy itself? Tiny killer robots?

So it’s not just me.

I don’t think it’s an issue with phones, as TVs and monitor have static elements for half a day or longer, phones tend to be one for minutes, maybe a few hours max.

My phone doesn’t even have a hint of a burn-in after 3 years of heavy usage (Galaxy S10). I use it way more than most people, often 8 hours a day.

Masturbation is an innovator. So many inventions go back to “because porn”. Take current AI development for example, there’s a massive drive because porn and porn has only one job.
