It’s probably not a total lie, a dedicated chip for specific calculations is probably the only way that we’ll see major jumps in processing power for a long while. It can be really effective for highly specific stuff. But the headline itself is certainly pure clickbait on the Verge’s and Flow’s behalf.

I did read the article, the article that I shared, that explains exactly what I said: Scott Weiner campaigned to decriminalization knowingly spreading STDs while lying.

What did I say that was wrong?

Right wing disinformation? Lol

If you knowingly lie and spread an std through sex or donating blood it goes from a felony to a misdemeanor. Aka decriminalization.

I don’t know how that’s right wing. I believe most people across the political spectrum probably don’t STDs, and especially don’t want to get them because a partner lied or they got a blood transfusion.

I also hate how so many people jump to call something disinformation just because they don’t like a particular fact. You calling it disinformation is in fact disinformation itself, and if everybody calls everything they don’t like disinformation then society will have no idea what is true or not.

The only thing that I fear more than big tech is a bunch of old people in congress trying to regulate technology who probably only know of AI from watching terminator.

Also, fun Scott Wiener fact. He was behind a big push to decriminalization knowingly spreading STDs even if you lied to your partner about having one.

The ego of an Australian regulator that thought they could tell an American company what they could or could not distribute to non-Australians must be huge. (To clarify, twitter had blocked the video for Australians)

I know the US has a reputation for thinking it’s laws apply everywhere but this is on a whole new level

“option likely to achieve the most positive outcome for the online safety of all Australians, especially children.”

Thanks!

Edit: Maybe check out Ri Music, Vi Music’s Successor

It’s built by Google, but it’s open source, and is probably the best optical character recognition by far. It’s one pip/pipx installation away and I find it pretty useful on occasion. Same as WhisperAI by by OpenAI. Fully open source and one pip/pipx command away, probably close to the best audio transcription there is as well.

Not sure either count as AI, at least not AI chatbot kind of AI more like more simple algorithms, but they’re great in the sense it’s just another program but a very useful tool. Not some baked in copilot kind of deal

IPFS is not built on a blockchain

Iirc E/OS is based on Lineage, but takes a horrifying long time to patch in security updates on top of Lineage’s already somewhat laggy patches. If you choose to use it make sure you’re aware of that going in.

Also, like IIGxC said it’s a android. Maybe slightly more private that most stock versions on most phones. But that’s like saying [insert Linux distro] is better than Linux.

Been helped a lot by Brave Search’s built in AI. Privacy search engines have always been somewhat more unreliable, and with Google searches going to crap now, sometimes that AI answer below the search answers my question or points me in the right direction when non of the results do. If AI’s going to pollution the search results might as well use it to alleviate the mess it made.

Still would a loved to see DDG go the brave model and actually self host an open model instead of just embedding ChatGPT.

Edit: nevermind, see they offer both self hosted and ChatGPT3.

Anyone able to loan me under $10,000? It’s for something really cool.

Briar, Jami, SimpleX and Tox are all semi similar to what you might be looking for.

$4 is probably way more than enough to cover the cost of your account, but the problem is what percentage of people are paying. If it’s 1 in 100 or 1,000 and $4 covers 75 average accounts they might be in a bind.
