China still has the “lots of restless young men” problem, so they may be trying to placate the issue by way of diversionary tactics.

Still it’s something they created on their own, at the expense of women and now shockingly (not) blame women as well.

Truly idiotic leadership everywhere.

The Y2K was a different kind of virus, a virus of the mind.

You’re right. It’s an opinion and only as important as the one having the opinion decides it to be.

That’s kinda the problem. We’re already careless with the things we do ourselves. It can’t be helped, nobody’s perfect. But once we start delegating tasks, we lose the direct experience. Priorities shift, attention moves to something else and the chance of carelessness rises because it’s no longer a problem we have to concern ourselves with.

Meanwhile, the LLM “learns”. What it “learns”, nobody knows because it does so mechanically. There’s zero understanding.
It keeps “learning” every time it’s fed something, so you don’t have a static program that does what it’s told. Instead it’s a “living” program that applies what it “learns”. And that makes it unpredictable in the long run.

This turns the user into a glorified middle manager who has to hover over their employee and make sure they did their job as they should have. And how many middle managers do you know with that kind of dedication, that isn’t spiteful at its core?

The push against this is that the people depending on it to do the work become less dependable themselves. And unless you’re an independent developer without a profit driven publisher breathing down your neck, this will be used in all the wrong ways as a standard instead of it being the exception.

Oh, so that’s why Epic’s Easy anticheat keeps having trouble. Microsoft might be using it as a trial run.

Could very well be. Won’t say i know better. Might even be a lot of both…

Love and hate are subjective opinions, so of course they’re unfair.

And so are upvotes/downvotes.

You’re expecting it to be used responsibly when we ourselves in general are very lacking in that department.

This here is a very good example of the actual use that will happen. A rush job to meet unrealistic deadlines. And that’s what will happen as is the norm.

“like it or not, gen AI is becoming an invaluable tool for developers”…

…who wish to take a dump on their work.

Not many do, which is probably why they keep shuffling around the ones already in place.

But also

Asians, and not just Japanese people, are known for their beautiful, smooth skin, so it ends up looking like CG.

He’s really milking it…

Kinda reminds me of Stalin. That too was a man driven by hate.

Printing your bills and documents can save you a lot of trouble when needed.

I’d rather use that dollar and buy an older game i haven’t played than spend it on pretty skins.

Yeah, but I’m cheaper so I only paid for the mass produced version. No movie bullet holes for me I’m afraid…

Vampires hating garlic is a myth. It’s actually like catnip to them.

For racoons maybe.

Oh so many.

They’re not useless. They’re just there as a representative for shareholders and their job is to wring out the greatest value out of the company.

That means picking out the best moments to invest, hire more assets, fire the disposables etc.

They’re the gamblers using other people’s money to make more money.

The meat of it is hidden in the thick of it.

Some of Boelter’s comments appear to be at odds with a law enforcement account of their initial contact with her.

In an application for a search warrant, a state law enforcement official said that when authorities first spoke with Boelter at 10 a.m. June 14, she was initially “not forthcoming with knowledge of her husband being involved in something serious” — even though he had messaged her earlier that day and said “there maybe people with guns coming to the house.”

After she talked with a special agent with the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, the search warrant application says, Boelter revealed her husband’s text messages and said that he’d told her to go her parents’ home. According to a criminal complaint, one of the texts “stated something to the effect of they should prepare for war.”

Boelter’s mother’s home was the family’s “bailout plan” — or a place to go in case of an emergency — according to the criminal complaint, which describes the couple as “preppers.” After Boelter had stopped and was being questioned by authorities, they searched her car and found a safe containing at least $10,000 in cash, two guns and passports for the family.

She has not been charged with any crimes.
