While I agree that people are resistant to change, all the studies ive seen show negative or minimal benefit.
So either people are being poorly trained by the change management or the product is poor and doesn’t love up to its marketing.
Yea, but it’s still different to templates. My parents said playing video games was a waste of computing power. The confidentiality breach will be no worse than Gmail or Hotmail. So, not good, but also not new.
It’s not bad just because it’s AI. AI is much worse than it’s purported to be and hasn’t really progressed in a few years, but it has its uses.
Summarising and composing emails and other communications see a to be a strength.
On my work, of I’m provided free software that makes my work easier, I’ll use it. If the users arent seeing the value, then the value is not there.
It sounds like it’s creating the template and also modifying it as needed. That is a step up.
I think it’s more that we have fewer and fewer small companies or competition. So price rises don’t deter consumers as much as they should, by allowing competition.
You can set up a restaurant as a person with financing. But the costs of doing so, fighting against economies of scale of larger outfits are incredibly difficult, but only the best survive.
Creating a console. Not even super wealthy corporations can successfully do that with billions of dollars and teams of experts. So if one is successful, like PlayStation, there is no reason to lower prices. There is no valid competitor.
Similar for many things. Amazon. Sure you can shop elsewhere but it won’t have the range or shipping logistics. Same with apple and android. Duopoly instead of monopoly. Nvidia. Monopoly. Facebook. Monopoly. Google, monopoly. Etc etc
Our economies are broken. It’s become about lock in rather than competition. It was gradual and innocuous at first. Tie that in with enshittification and shrinkflation and we have an ever shrinking shit sandwich with no alternative.
I didn’t, but a friend did and loved it. I’ve heard the os was great. I’m not upset it died. Competition is good, but I don’t think Microsoft would have been good competition. I just wish someone else had taken the mantle.
Android started out great. It has jest become perverted into a tracker with less freedom.
I wonder if PCs are getting fast enough to do everything that the opposite can happen. Older hardware and free software is as good or better than proprietary with new software. So, even with subsidy, they can’t turn the screw. The problem with mobile is the lack of a competitor, and the duopoly.
Even Microsoft could not break it. If Linux mobile can port over all android apps seamlessly or easily for devs, with lower fees, then it has a chance. Microsoft paid devs to put their apps on the windows mobile store but even that wasn’t enough.
Similar to windows, the more they turn the screws, the more people want to leave. There is a boiled frog effect but eventually lots of the frogs die in that analogy, turning off the cash spigot.
While that’s interesting info and links, I don’t think that’s true.
https://share.google/opT62A4cIvKp6pwhI This case with Thomson has, but is expected to be overturned.
Most of the big cases are in the early stages. Let’s see what the Disney one does.
There is also the question, not just of copyright or fair use, but legally obtaining the data. Facebook torrented terabytes of data and claimed they did not share it. I don’t know that that’s enough to claim innocence. It hasn’t been for individuals.
The question is whether they are actually transformative. Just being different is not enough. I can’t use Disney IP to make my new movie, for instance.
That’s assuming you own the media in the first place. Often AI is trained with large amounts of data downloaded illegally.
So, yes, it’s fair use to train on information you have or have rights to. It’s not fair use to illegally obtain new data. Even more, to renting that data often means you also distribute it.
For personal use, I don’t have an issue with it anyway, but legally it’s not allowed.
No dramas. The article is confusing was my reason for posting.
Lol, so you agree with my initial comment?
What does the increased by a third figure refer to. The change in yhebdelayou are unclear, lol.
It says the number of Americans immigration to Ireland is a third higher than the Irish emigrants. But it’s more like 50% higher. You suggested that maybe it was the American figure that changed by a third, but it changed by 96%.
So what does the third refer to? I suspect it’s a misunderstanding of a 50% increase means that the excess is a third of the total.
2 to 3 is a 50% increase. 2 is 1/3 less than 3.
So what’s the third higher reference?
Ugh, the ai spellcheck is broken and I’m writing a Netflix special in six hearse gorillas.
No, it says that number has jumped by 96%.
A third higher? Looks 50% higher.
I use a self hosted Bitwarden on mobile. Works fine across devices,
Yes, but it’s not socialism we’re seeing. It’s fascism. Fascism also has state control of private industry. For a different purpose.
Nothing exciting there at all.
Just a heads up that anthropic have just lost a $1.5b case for downloading and storing copyrighted works. That’s $3,000 per author of 500000 books.
The wheels of justice move slowly but fair use has limits. Commercial use is generally not one. Commentary and transformation are, so we’ll see how this progresses with the many other cases.
Warner Brothers have recently filed another case, I think.
