I am a living breathing example of a kid who got a phone at 17, I had a bit of a honeymoon period with it, had lots of fun and distraction, but eventually got used to it and actually use it for organising my schoolwork to do list, check the weather and my daily schedule.
I do tend to use social media on it, but only on the bus, since that’s usually when I don’t have anything else to do. I self limit my screen time pretty well, usually only 30 mins to an hour total per day, and I’ve always had all my devices without parental control systems, since my parents never knew how to set them up.
Also, you saying it’s never about algorithms designed to siphon your attention is inherently incorrect of a statement. They literally have hundreds of data metrics to effectively lock you into staring at the screen mindlessly, although parenting also has a part to play, since you also should teach your child on how to control their attention and harness it to actually do something fulfilling, though many parents don’t know how to.
Interesting, my Reno z somehow had assistant fully removed and replaced by Gemini, so that’s probably why I can’t do the basics.
And are they gonna have Gemini upgraded to have google assistants basic functions like calling and sending messages to contacts, setting reminders and timers, and actually give a response to a question that isn’t “it’s more complicated than it seems, here’s a 5000 word essay on your extremely simple question”?
So far they haven’t gotten a single toe, let alone a step, into the right direction.
I’ve never heard of this platform! Where can I sign up?
Same here, my 3 year old account got permabanned since my new alt got banned from r/shitpost and I couldn’t filter it out so I accidentally commented on my main and, well here I am…
Apparently you can live with a BiVACOR TAH for around 10 years without replacement due to the Maglev system inside it.
Gosh it feels like cyberpunk 2077 is just a few years away, we just need more corporate built cities.
He probably doesn’t, he might just be doing it so his email is ‘erm’
Same but I thought Louis had a brother who became evil for some reason 😭
Rawdogging programming without comments hits different, but eventually fucks you over lmao
My favourite way to liken LLMs to something else is to autocorrect, it just guesses, and it gets stuff wrong, and it is constantly being retrained to recognise your preferences, such as it starting to not correct fuck to duck for instance.
And it’s funny and sad how some people think these LLMs are their friends, like no, it’s a collosally sized autocorrect system that you cannot comprehend, it has no consciousness, it lacks any thought, it just predicts from a prompt using numerical weights and a neural network.
Yeah, their “innovative AI operating system architecture” doesn’t seem very innovative now.
I would wager that turning it into a clock that uses text to speech to tell the time when you tap the touchpad and the laser projector to see it visually, would be the only solution where it doesn’t overheat instantly.
Australia already has this, but it is extremely easy to circumvent, just use a different VPN.
I wonder if you get banned if you use the TOR Reddit page
If I recall correctly, wasn’t this already one of Microsoft’s ideas?
Seeming that I’m getting increasingly pissed off by Spotify giving 5 or more ads without 30 minute adless times and for every 5th song rather than every 8th or 10th, I’m gonna have even more stress from the doubling of all google ads.
At least ublock origin lite does its job pretty well on YouTube, so I won’t need to worry until google eventually kills that too.
