The thing most of us like about it, was that it was very true to the comic book.

Thank you for that. It finally clicked.

It’s what the courts think, and right now, it’s not clear what the enforceable laws are here. There’s a very real chance people who do this will end up in jail.

I believe prosecutors are already filling cases about this. The next year will decide the fate of these AI generator deepfakes and the memories behind them.

Mesh networks are severely limited in terms of mbps/throughput. They also use their own throughput channel to communicate and sync with each other, further reducing available bandwidth.

They also can introduce a lot of latency and packet loss if you’re into gaming that needs to be taken into consideration.

They have a purpose and a use, but if you want to get the benefits of modern internet speeds, you should set up a wired network and only use wireless protocols for small, difficult to wire, devices.

Yeah, they imprisoned a Chinese UFC fighter who said he could beat any traditional Chinese martial artist because their kung fu doesn’t work in the real world.

They agreed to set up the match and when he, predictably, beat the living shit out of the spiritual mumbo jumbo guy, over and over again, they claimed he intentionally dishonored China and tried to lock him up.

It’s depressing how right you probably are about how companies are going to cope with this.

Reminds me of that quote: “If Conservatives become convinced that they cannot win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject Democracy.”

But, like, apply that to Capitalism and Capitalists rejecting Capitalism in favor of Socialism for them.

Oh, 100 percent right you are. Definitely not saying clueless corporate idiot bosses aren’t going to try and replace their workforce with AI.

But I am saying that it won’t work for them after they do that. They’re going to crash and burn here, and have lost that talent and expertise within their company so there’s no replacing it, except slowly over time.

Then we get to wait for the real once in a lifetime event.

Which is extinction.

We’re a long way out from that fortunately.

Not saying that some jobs won’t be cut/lost, but the companies doing that were likely looking for reasons to downsize.

AI models do not replace competent UI/UX. That’s just not what they’re designed to do. Very different functions.

It reduces spending, because saving is now exceedingly optimal.

Less spending means inflation generally comes down because companies lower prices to meet the lack of demand.

But yes, too high and it can cause even worse inflation, assuming an even capital distribution among the people.

Yeah, honestly, PIPs are dogshit in most cases. I’m for removing them as a barrier to prevent firing.

If you’re going on a PIP, you’re going to end up fired anyhow.

uBO filters won’t work the way they used to because Chrome’s v3 manifest will explicitly prevent them from working the way they have been.

Yeah, admittedly, those two things are annoying.

I haven’t personally experienced the adblocker thing though, I suspect it’s not intentional, but I’m purely speculating there.

The censoring thing I have run into, and it is very irritating, so I’m with you on that.

As others have replied, the MS thing is about them having a Plan B in case the board didn’t reinstate him.

One way or another he’s working for Microsoft here at the end of the day, Microsoft is just making sure they keep him gainfully employed within their control. Their move to hire him was covering their bases.

If the board were to reinstate him, like it has, then MS can rescind their offer and allow him to join the Open AI CEO position again.

Either way, MS didn’t want to lose Sam is all this says.

TL;DR; The board basically caved to the demands of the 500+ employees that penned and signed a letter telling them to reinstate Sam Altman and disband the current board.

In addition to reinstating him, most of the board is “quitting”.

In this case, the employees won out.

Their account deletion policy aside, Crunchyroll is like one of the last remaining bastions of solid streaming for a very reasonable price that hasn’t increased in many years.

There’s plenty of streaming services to cancel and switch to piracy on legitimately, I don’t personally believe Crunchyroll to be one of them.

Even if it doesn’t, the consequences of the board ignoring this is catastrophic to the company. One way or another, the workers will have a victory here.

Need to trim the knobs off, but otherwise, terrific stick for sword fighting

That is not that much in this industry.

I’ve got roughly 25 years in the software development industry and depending on what talent market you’re working in, that 400k may not even be enough for one engineer or architects salary.

And it only took the bloodiest civil war in history, a war we’re still paying the price for not going the extra mile and abolishing the southern states and replacing them with Union members.
