If the AT protocol allows public access to content, they can’t create a proprietary training set. But the content is available for anyone who wants to add it to a public training set.

If n is the day the item is introduced, the total quantity is 42-(n-6.5)².

Interesting approach—to detect fake news by simulating humans’ reaction to it rather than judging the content itself.

Not with a typewriter, though.

Yeah, that’s why we need at least… two of them.

TIL Habermas is still alive.

Many authors stipulate that their books must be sold on Amazon without DRM, so their readers can back up and use their books outside Amazon’s ecosystem. Does preventing users from accessing their files violate any conditions that were implied when people bought and sold books with that feature?

There is one thing I would find genuinely useful that seems within its current capabilities. I’d like to be able to give an AI a summary of my current knowledge on a subject, along with a batch of papers or articles, and have it give me one or more of the following:

• A summary of the papers omitting the stuff I already know

• A summary of any prerequisite background info I don’t already know, but isn’t in the papers

• A summary of all the points on which the papers are in agreement

• A summary of any points where the papers are in contention.

“I do feel like it added a level of distance to it that wasn’t a bad thing,” he told Ars Technica. “Maybe a bit like a personal assistant who stays professional and has your back even in the most awful situations, but yeah, more than anything it felt unreal and dystopian.”

If the single word “dystopian” is how the editors decided to summarize that description, I’m not sure they’re doing any better than the AI.

“AI” is the new “Space-Age”.

Newsom on Sunday instead announced that the state will partner with several industry experts, including AI pioneer Fei-Fei Li, to develop guardrails around powerful AI models.

That’s reassuring—Li is one of the best-qualified people for the role, and she isn’t in the pocket of any of the major players.

I wouldn’t be surprised if their AI rewrites their terms of service every time you try to print it.

One could use Perfect Output to quickly fix image sizes and remove ads and white space when printing something off a website, HP says as an example.

So Reader Mode for printing?

That seems like a feature that would be better handled by the browser than the printer—this is the equivalent of implementing reader mode by adding AI to your monitor.

Why does the title specify that the tool is taking down “AI-generated” pictures if the article focuses on how it’s taking down fan art indiscriminately?

There’s Upton Sinclair’s famous remark that it’s “difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it”, but I don’t think that’s the whole story. There’s a part of them that does hear, but holds the understanding in abeyance, saving it for use when circumstances change and it no longer threatens their self-interest.

Microsoft is to memory as Cortés is to Mexico.

Wouldn’t it make more sense to have removable batteries it could recharge and swap out on the fly?

The robot can spend 23 hours a day monitoring the parking lot from all angles

Do they get a mandated one-hour break or something?
