So basically the Wii hack but with modern head tracking instead of IR.

Saboteur deserves much more love.

Maybe he’ll force their sale to Ukraine, so Trump can pretend he supports them even while the cybertrucks break down in the field faster than Russia’s WWII era tanks.

I looked it up too and honestly I don’t doubt that he does have US citizenship and there’s no scandal. But interestingly, the proof they offer is that he was registered to vote in Texas in 2002 and that wouldn’t be possible if he weren’t a citizen. I’m sure that’s also true. It’s just funny that that assumption would challenge Trump’s allegation of all the illegal immigrants registering to vote. According to him, Musk’s registration wouldn’t be proof of anything.

I swear I’m not just trying to start an argument, but I don’t see the disagreement here. You’re saying people here are too negative, but people aren’t shitting on the idea of LLMs, but the over promising of what they can do. You’re tired of explaining that it’s not true AI, but the confusion of caused by Google calling it “AI Overviews.”

You say it’s nothing new and that we’ve always had to vet sources when Google sends us somewhere, which is true, but the Overviews aren’t sending people anywhere, they’re summarizing and trying to give you an answer. They do link to sources for now, but the end goal is clearly that we trust the summary without following the links.

People who are listening to and parsing his comments are not the same people who will be blindly consuming these “AI Overviews.” It’s a problem.

But it’s not an isolated R&D project. They’re rolling it out in general search. If I have a promising new braking technology, but which still only works well 48% of the time, I’d keep working on it but not put it in production vehicles.

I was just listening to a YouTube playlist of mine that goes back at least 10 years and was disappointed how much of it was deleted. And not only that, but in many cases I couldn’t even tell what the videos were.

Literally just today, I picked one music video that just seemed to be gone from youtube and the internet, but thankfully was able to find a Wayback machine link to the artists website in 2008 with a .mov download link.

They weren’t just tracking what you bought. They wanted to track what you looked at and for how long, to learn what packaging worked best.

I was curious about the “Philly cream cheese” campaign example they mentioned. I assume it’s this post.

The top reply is trolling them, which is awesome. So much for increased engagement.

But even funnier is the next top reply, which seems sincere. But when you look at the user profile, almost all of u/sunshinedogger’s comments in the last year are on sponsored posts. So even the positive engagement is manufactured?

Didn’t they use to have this years ago? And then removed it?

So was Betamax
