but for now, his approach is textbook Silicon Valley mythmaking

The difference is that in this case it is not hype—it is reality. It’s not a myth, it is happening right now. We are chugging inevitably down the track to the most dramatic discovery in human history. And Altman’s views on solving the climate crisis, disease, nuclear fusion… they are all within reach. If anything we need to increase our speed to get us there ASAP.



I have a hard time defending the YouTubers on this one. I mean, Nintendo has been pretty good about allowing older games to be played on its modern consoles. See VGC, the NES/SNES/N64 pass, and the multiple re-releases put out for the Switch. At some point just pony up the money or play the older games on a physical older console.



I don’t know how much it matters though? If I try it on my Windows XP machine I’ll still be stuck with the old limit right?


Would it be able to replace people skin too? I’m starting to saggy and spotty.


If one wanted to really screw the AI, I’d replace each post/comment with nonsense generated by ChatGPT itself on a higher-than-normal temperature setting. AI would be training on its own generated content, and out of context as well.


Disagree. They need to learn to code. And be experts with AI tools.

Just like kids with a calculator.


I’m not sure what to think about this. It’s bizarre, the White House making any recommendations on programming languages.

They’re definitely not seen as an authority in this field. Why would anyone care what recommendation they make? And so why make one at all?


the federal government doubled down on its own commitment to heat pumps, announcing $169 million in funding

I am grateful the government is investing in this. I would like to see them even more, bilions



I need to just filter out layoff news. All these tech layoffs really bug me. Hope we see some startups take off filled with these laid off workers.




Take the severance, then get a job somewhere else near home. They’ve worked for Apple—the world is their oyster


Fair enough. I do think AI will become a valuable tool for doctors, etc who do make those decisions


HP isn’t what it used to be. I’ve got an HP color laser printer that has been cranking for more than ten years, while using third party toner. It’s sad seeing them like this now.



The current version has a replaceable battery, so I don’t see any reason to upgrade to some other device.


Thank you. Less biased, can’t be flown on fancy vacations. Not a bad idea


I don’t like either, but I guess I dislike x slightly more, so ok news.


I was a paying customer and would not have been affected by this. But it seemed like a crappy move and I didn’t support it, so I ended my subscription. I’ve switched to Obsidian, which is significantly better.


Despite the title, the article is about salespeople working for tech companies, not about software developers, etc


I’m so glad to see this. There have been several studies that show social media is terrible for the mental health of minors.


I’ve used Google and Zoom at work at different t companies. It’s surprising how Google lags behind Zoom in features. Google is worse at identifying background as background. And Zoom has had video backgrounds for a while now.


I’m a long-time Mac user but I’m very excited about this laptop. I’ve been interested in Framework for a while, but 13” screen was too small for me. This new 16” screen is perfect.


I use Bitwarden and I’m planning on switching to self hosting Vaultwarden soon.


That is a long list of things to make the site usable. I wonder if we as the fediverse community can leverage Peertube and eliminate the need for all these blockers.


I’m glad they’re leaving the old site, but Discord serves different purposes and isn’t a replacement. I’d recommend they start a Lemmy community.


It’s not too much of a surprise. Take a look at Google’s TOS. Anything you upload to their platform they can do as they please with it. There is not even an exception made for email.


In an interview with then-Fox News host Tucker Carlson in April, Musk said teased plans for his new AI venture. “We’re going to start something which I call TruthGPT,” he said, describing it as a “maximum truth-seeking AI” that “cares about understanding the universe.”

Sigh. When did this guy turn into a clown?


Wow. Was not expecting growth so rapidly.

I don’t like Meta or Twitter, but I am rooting for Meta in this battle. Just sick of Musk’s antics.

At any rate, I’ve got my popcorn ready.
