It’s just like the fucking Garfield phones again

Honestly, I would’ve guessed more

Automation, I like it! /s

Ironically, if age estimation was done via usage history algorithms, it’d be a much more privacy preserving technique than literally scanning your face or ID into a website that then hands it off to a barely known biometrics company so you can keep using your account…

It’s so strange how this legislation apparently is supposed to safeguard the safety of kids on the internet, but hands tremendous risk to adults who verify, or parents who’s kids sneakily took their ID to verify their accounts, since it seems that we may be the cyberattack victim capital of the world; see Qantas, Lattitude Financial, Optus, Medibank, and so on until the end of time.

Hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby type shit

I wish an AI operating system was just a bunch of microscopic AI models that only load when needed and run on device and have a genuine assistive purpose, instead of “Oh, HahA leTs maKe The comPuTer ContrOL iTsElf aNd tELL UsEr FalSe InFormAtioN”

I find it funny when they read my school emails and then accuse themselves of phishing after they accuse me of holding malware in my drive, icing on the cake really, I won’t even need this email in a month.

That said though, just like others have mentioned, making users opt out of getting all the data wringed out of their account isn’t the most ethical strategy and frankly it’s a bit over the top.

They already scan everything from your Google drive to your YouTube recommended, google news feed, docs files, and just you browsing and using that as data for advertising and their AI. I don’t think emails are the best source of personalised information nor would assist in training new Gemini models unless they want to build an email spam bot.

The content is also AI generated. NotebookLM and it’s feature to make videos based on sources the user provides generates a full video, and it’s 1 click unless the user wants to add a prompt for the video. A dead giveaway for this full video being generated is the thumbnail, which is from the classic visual style preset and is usually the first slide.

There is also the NotebookLM watermark in the bottom right, which is also a giveaway.

I haven’t watched the video at all but from the thumbnail it’s a NotebookLM video. The only time I would remotely trust or even recognise an AI video is if I choose to generate one, even then though, they’re usually shit.

I swear, whenever I try to use it, it just makes me wish I could delete it. I ask the answer to a simple question and it gives me a whole essay on how this one aspect of what I said is more nuanced than one would imagine, and I’m left there waiting 5 minutes to get it to say anything of substance, but it doesn’t when I explicitly tell it to “just give me the fucking answer”, which I have to say every time for it to say anything useful.

It also doesn’t work with timers or anything actually useful and I doubt it’ll get any better with third party app access.

Google assistant was so much better, it even still works with its servers being down (for me at least) because it’s a better assistant than whatever Gemini is supposed to be.

Are we twins? I do the exact same and for around a year now, I’ve also found it pretty helpful.

Isn’t he an accelerationist? To them the more fuck ups we have the more solutions we make, which is pretty stupid of an argument in my opinion.

Even better, have your tv on the whole time, so if the tv sends telemetry data that’s also linked to the phone, it’ll show you were at home the whole time.

The Devs at the browser company said themselves that they aren’t killing Arc, it’s just on maintenance mode as they are working on another browser, an AI first one, which I have mixed feelings about personally.

Ah yes, the same state which is suing Roblox and discord for child exploitation… Hmmmm…

Where I live we’ve been calling him duttplug and Voldemort, god I love Aussie politician naming conventions.
