From what I've read, a lot of the people dying are drug addicts

I'm not trying to be mean, it's just informational. These are the people we need to focus on to prevent deaths

One reason is reddit is still much lower in the public consciousness, compared to Instagram, which is effectively the biggest social media nowadays.

It's usually free tiers of paid products

Well search and maps (and some others) have no paid tier. Even for paid products, google does quite explicitly make money from the free version through ads. And most google ads are through third party sites, so you can't opt out of them by paying google.

The current system of getting a job is horrifyingly toxic, broken and inefficienct

Any system that relies on people selling themselves will inevitably select for those who can sell themselves best, not any other metric

Computers, and US. But I'm not just basing it off my experience

For one thing, people would only apply to a few places, with requirements that closely matched their skills.

Until that ad also happens to be for a legitimate website you want to visit. I'd rather have a adblocker I can change right there in the website

What are they going to use instead? Windows, which also has an OpenAI partnership? Android, which had Gemini and probably even worse privacy?

Or is the whole company switching to Linux and Linux mobile

Honestly I'm scared of when these people figure out they can use llms to make their texts look like less obvious scams

That should happen in about 10 days, but it will likely stop due to lack of up votes

Based on current upvote rates, it will only last two more days

Why doesn't youtube shut down their public web api?

so we already know that youtube doesn't like people freeloading their bandwidth using something like invidious, piped, newpipe etc. why don't they just close the public web api and require a login or something. by requiring login they can keep track of what users are watching and if a user is watching thousands of videos daily...

morrowind ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

Maybe Embedded videos? Can't require login for those

Depends on the sub. I don't expect many comments in r/memes

Not quite, it is an intelligent summary. More advanced models would realize that is bad advice and not give it. However for search results, google uses a lightweight, dumber model (flash) which does not realize this.

I tested with rock example, albiet on a different search engine (kagi). The base model gave the same answer as google (ironically based on articles about google's bad results, it seems it was too dumb to realize that the quotations in the articles were examples of bad results, not actual facts), but the more advanced model understood and explained how the bad advice had been spreading around and you should not follow it.

It isn't a hallucination though, you're right about that

Yeah it's called the "research assistant" I think. Uses GPT4-o atm.

It's kinda weird how much of a performance difference the wallpaper makes. I once installed Linux mint on an old laptop and the perf of managing windows and some other things was terrible until I changed the wallpaper to a plain color.

Meanwhile windows will still lag switching between desktops if they have different wallpapers, even on high end computers

If anyone I owe money to reads this, the debt is reversed.

I'll take the kiss though

I know most people are over AI, as am I, but if we're gonna have it, I'm glad to see there's a focus on it being local

The MS implementations won't, but once they build the capability, we can make our own

The goal is to make it work on device in the next 4 years. That's the point of an "AI PC"

just fyi, every website you visit has access to this, it's not private

Certain types of tweets tend to go away more often than others. More than 40% of tweets written in Turkish or Arabic are no longer visible on the site within three months of being posted.

I've read this is a major problem in Facebook as well, they lack good moderation for these languages and especially the Arabic script and so just remove things heavy handedly to be safe.

Maybe they are all the same company, making shitty free services to try to steer you to paying for better services.

Do you expect free services with no catch? You either pay with money or with something else

morrowind ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

I give lemmy money. Not so for google

morrowind ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

Someone has to pay lemmy. If you don't, it's comparable to a free tier of a paid service. When I say "you" I don't mean every single person. There's no option to pay for google search that I'm aware of.

morrowind OP ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

Nothing fundamentally wrong with AI search. I've found Kagi's AI to be unobtrusive and helpful. That article is a bit of a nothingburger.

morrowind OP ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

I'm aware of a lot of the fake AI scandals, but it doesn't apply here. Google has good models and human workers cannot go through your results in real time

morrowind OP ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

I don't, but its good to know what's happening over there

morrowind OP ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

Then don't use it. The regular search is still good
