This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
This is the primary reason I've not given agents more power than something extremely controlled (I.e. only a function to turn on/off the lights). As I was always concerned that these generational models might accidentally do something dumb or annoying, let alone something that might be illegal or harmful.
I don't really see how anyone would ask AI to complete something completely autonomously at this stage, without oversight.
Good for image classification and tagging to automate sorting all the images off my phone. Some fun chatbots to soundboard ideas off. Anything involving credit cards, bank details, personal info near the internet? That's a big nope.
Thanks for posting this. I haven't heard her before. She knows her shit.
Why Signal is not in f-droid? Is there a statement from them about it? What I know is only in Google store . And talking to much about privacy and not being in a f-droid repo, is ironic
It's available on F-droid through the Guardian Project repo.
since when? that's good news to me!
the alternatives seem to be Molly on the main repo and Signal-FOSS on TwinHelix's
Showed up maybe a month ago?
They also offered their .apk directly through their site with an included downloader last I checked, but I would love it to on f-droid
Add Guardian Project repo. It's there.
It will be interesting tracing accountability when AI does something less than legal while trying to implement a legal command.
There are some things it would be nice to have a brain in a jar to do for me.
I do not, however, want that jar sitting in an Amazon-owned server room somewhere, where they can modify the jar to change how the brain works.
Take back your brain-in-a-jars from big tech! /j
Well put
hero material.
my family contributes $5 monthly to the signal foundation. consider doing the same if you are able.
the entire family uses it personally and for business so its among the best montly contribs we make.
I've got one of those I've been meaning to re target for a couple weeks now, Signal is gonna be it for sure!
Doing my part o7
That's an AI rendering of her likeness. ;-)
I mean shes not wrong, but imagine I use this to do my bullshit day job so I can work on what I really want to. I would totally use this to get some rube to pay me for a job while I GameDev or something. Or at least some excel sheet monkey could probably do that I know these can't do my job.
The problem being: Why pay you, if all they'd need is an AI agent?
Technology like this will not be used by the workers to prevent having to do bullshit jobs, it will be used by employers to prevent paying people.
In a world that lets everybody profit from the advances we make, that would be a good thing, but in the world I see us living in, that'll just grow the gap between poor and rich.
Its out now. I'm talking about taking advantage of this toilet bowl before the last flush. We never got rid of Citizens United. We never controlled these corporations. As a people, we were content until just about this point as a whole. Unless everyone marches to DC. The tech bros are getting their little kingdoms.
Oh my god I haven't seen Guy in years! He's such a wonderful guy (heh). I think our last interaction was on Google's G+. 😳
EDIT: Wow, that was a good panel.
