It objectively did, but that is beside the point. If they’re getting some of the lost customers back by adding “gemeni overview” then they they’re justified. There’s no point in cooking michelin star level food if your customers mostly go to KFC.

Why defend them when they’ve shown nothing but contempt for their customers?

Because I don’t want to let hate blind me to a reasonable opinion.

To be fair, Google has lost a lot of business to ChatGPT & friends who are not offering a list of actual content associated with the search at all. Hate Google as much as you want and I’m sure most of it is warranted, but they’re not completely evil in this case

Gimp. You’re a much better person than me. I always found the gimp learning curve way too steep for me

Who is “you”? How can the general public get organized?

This is a shitty issue to raise and yet it isn’t made out of literal shit

OP is responding to your original question. If you’re asking if it safe to do it, then you are worried about the consequences of doing it and wonder if you should stop. That would mean that you are “obeying a rule before it exists”.

As to your current comment, you should understand that current “AI” solutions do not think anything. If the current solutions were used for mass surveillance, then they would be used to classify your actions in some predefined way and whomever is using them will use this classification in some (possibly nefarious) unknown way

I think there’s an important semantic difference between worse performance and correctness. Tools, like AI, can underperform when compared to humans and still be very useful and worth investing into, but that’s only as long as they perform correctly.

The neat part is that we can’t even claim that they’re little mistakes or that there’s few of them.

That’s such a bad argument too. The whole point of technology is to help perfect the output of humans. Why would we buy technology that is known to not do that

It already exists, lots of institutions people work with know way more than just their age. They could really provide an anonymous way of validating someone’s age without divulging their identity. This can also be done in such a way that the verification provider doesn’t know the requester either so they don’t have a way of tracking user habits

This isn’t surprising, 20% of the world’s supply of literally anything would have profound impacts with how tightly coupled the world supply chain is. When that resource is a basic need such as petrol, things tend to become dramatic quite quicly

Not for me. Looks like CNN it’s not free everywhere. Interesting.

Here you go

since when is war an internal affair?

The show is set in the 90s and IT wasn’t something mainstream back then. The plot is not that they’re too dense to understand, it’s that it is too obscure to care

These were supposed to be young people with very laid back schedules. That’s what the vibe of the show was about. I’m pretty sure there isn’t a shortage of groups of young adults with moderately wealthy parents living in this sort of bohemian setting now and there certainly wasn’t one in the 90s.

But yeah, it isn’t universal and it can come across badly in sine cases

that would likely turn on him in a heart beat.

Again, what happens to him personally or to Facebook as a company is irrelevant when it comes to how our lives are affected. The regulation of social platforms is good for society regardless of the efect regulation has on the owners or the companies owning the platforms.

Your argument is built around the wrong desirable outcome.

A minority that probably hates his guts.

How is this relevant to us? The subject here is about the platform’s influence on society, not of Zuckerberg.

ISIS? Hamas? any number of such organizations would happily use some mass murdering weapons if given access to them. Putin has shown that he doesn’t care about what happens to russian citizens if he can win something out of their suffering so empowering terrorist organizations to harm people, even russians, is not a big price to pay to make his point

i don’t think the nukes are where the drills take place, that would be quite stupid
