I wanted to read it. I did.
But seriously! How much work would it take for somone, anyone! Even the writer! Just read over the article once before before pushing the send button!

The very first letter of the very first word (only a two letter word) is wrong.

“Un an interview that’s”

I can’t do it.

I thought that what he literally called it. Public Beta

For reasons having nothing to do with gaming.

It’s not a good sign when you have to pay people to use your product.

You’re conflating free speech of individuals, with engagement driven black box recommendation algorithms of corporations. It’s a common mistake. I think most people make it.

A company can allow people to post things, and for people to see them if they like, without algorithmically pushing it in endless scrolling interfaces.

For example Lemmy and Mastodon. You only see what you choose to subscribe to. The sites don’t chose to push any content into your feed because an algorithm thinks you’ll like it.

There is a big difference between the two.
And removing the algorithms isn’t a hindrance to free speech, only profits.

It’s always surprising to me that people think these harms are limited to kids and teens. These same issues effect everyone of all ages. Even I’ve noticed my attention span has been effected.

The federal ban is for ByteDance not TickTok.
And that’s unrelated to the states filing this law suit.

Is that why Meta is also being sued over the negative mental health effects of Facebook and Instagram?
They too are promoting a non-western narrative?

Will AI soon surpass the human brain?
If you ask employees at OpenAI, Google DeepMind and other large tech companies, it is inevitable.

That doesn’t answer the question.
If it will happen is unrelated to When it will happen.
I’d expect we’ll see AGI some time between the next 20 and 200 years. I think that’s pretty soon. You may not.

Sometimes people do the right thing, for the wrong reason. While not ideal. I’ll accept it.

We’re not talking about individual people, but whole corporations and organizations.

For example. Instance.social is shutting down. Now the whole Org needs to migrate 150 accounts to someplace else. Oh and the old posts are being deleted, can’t migrate those.

And the support community you created on there, is going away also. Again, can’t really migrate all the old posts and comments. But the FAQ documentation we put there when people asked about it, can be manually copied to the new place. So that’s something

That’s not a situation any company would want to be in. Better to have their own social home, that they control.

Hard disagree.
Running your own social media server for official accounts, so you’re not beholden to the whims of other providers, is kind of an obvious thing to do for online organizations.

Yes that’s correct.

All has posts from all the communities the members on that instance subscribe to.

I’m not sure I understand why they don’t.

I thought bringing chiplets to GPUs, meant they’d be able just add as many CUs and cash dies as they needed to get on top. Even if it’s $3.5k and 1000W, they should be able to. They could sell 100K units as some limited edition special thing, and pull mind share away from nVidia by having the undisputed top card.

But they don’t. Which is why I think they undervalue having a halo product. They don’t think it’ll push units further down the product stack. I think they’re clearly wrong about that. People buy cards that fit their budgets. But they buy brands they know to be the best.

I think they underestimate the marketing value of a halo product.
That, or it’s just spin to account for the fact that they don’t have one.

All 4 of them are cheaper than the launch price of their 7000 series counterparts. That’s quite good really!

Monopolies don’t require 100% of a market. Just enough to effectively manipulate a market.

One firm might only be 10% of a market. But if every other firm is only 1-2%, that 10% will have an outsized monopolistic ability to manipulate that market.

Really? No personal information like name, address, phone number, search history, YouTube viewing habits? None of that stuff

Signal is fine for instant messaging.

Matrix is closer to Discord.

Am I the only one who doesn’t like to use these?
And refuses to use the frame generation?

I’d much prefer real 30fps, over strange fake 120.
