lol wtf anti-trans politicians are just so full of shit. A politician of the opposition party was allegedly shot to death by an anti-trans bigot, first reaction: "SEE HOW VIOLENT TRANS PEOPLE ARE???"
#Transphobia is evil, and #Pride is more relevant than ever.
Microsoft broke Edge/Selenium on Win11. We have tools at work built on this base and we were compelled to use Edge as a company standard with which apparently only my team ever bothered to comply.
Departments who didn't listen to anything and just used Chrome are unaffected.
There's no ETA on a real fix that must come from MS and we're told to just work around it.
Who TF thought it was even worth considering adding "#AI summaries" to #Wikipedia?

At least the idea is "paused" due to (CORRECT) backlash. Good. The next step must be to trash it entirely.
LLMs are !!!NOT!!! suitable to summarize written text; the error rate is just too high. LLMs really do more harm than good in this area.
Pretty funny podcast. There's some good points about #GenAI #bullshit. Specifically suggesting genAI in appliances can be a way to deskill people and make them more dependent (you could call it #UserDomestication in the kitchen and the home). Without forgetting possible #ProgrammedObsolescence through dependence on cloud services.

"Massively accelerating" you say?
Why are you folks concerned about #AI being bullshit generators when humans can generate #bullshit without machine assistance so well?

That's not an anonymous survey then.

PEOPLE GET IDEAS THAT ARE AGAINST AI FROM THERE, AND WE NEED TO BUILD AGI TO SAVE THE UNIVERSE!

Elect me and this baloney of banks taking 5-7 business days to process an electronic deposit will end on day one.
Quick reminder:
AI means (labor located at) Africa and India.
Rappel d’intérêt public.
IA signifie dans la grande majorité (main d’œuvre située en) Inde et Afrique.
So the private sector apparently can't save Canada's economy, rather the corporations are all (silently) admitting that the state is necessary for Canada's economic survival. Like the private market yankee petromen demanding taxpayer handouts while making record profits and emissions.
If you {say stupid shit that #AI 
verifiably
does not do} to assert that #LLM are #spicyautocomplete #bullshit machines...
...then you are an inferior bullshit machine too...
...but 150,000x slower.

The USDA has ended a program that dozens of tribal food banks say has helped them provide fresh, locally produced food that is important to their traditions and cultures.

And now I've got GitHub CoPilot telling me it referenced files that are outside my current workspace and referenced nowhere within my project.
How the fuck am I meant to control it when it doesn't even follow the rules given?
