This is actually a very interesting article, the experiment demonstrates the current limitation of “AI” (so really just LLM). Most people (including investors and executives) have no idea what is the reality of the tech they are hyping up
I read about this a few years ago, and even saw them in a mall in Western EU.
The whole thing is just bio-data mining, and they started by preying on some poor regions in Africa
Imagine getting HL3 before GTA6. The meme potential would be out of this world
Before anyone becomes too happy: the post’s title is inaccurate, the two people sent to jail are only middle managers:
They are, the post title is false. The people going to jail are middle managers
Seems like it also doesn’t happen in Germany, as the post title doesn’t match the article.
The two people sent to jail are middle managers (Head of XY), not executives.
I mean who doesn’t like opping their york in the shower after a long day
Holy shit, this is insane. No sane person would put up with this
That’s why I was specifically talking about image
It’s incredible how Putin was able to turn Russia’s image from “occasionally drunk, but beloved funny uncle” to “scumbag murderer rapist” in a bit more than a decade.
It has always been a sketchy place, but they at least kept an okay image up, and a lot of people in the cities enjoyed a significant quality of life increase since the 2000s. I have some Russian colleagues who fled before/after the war, and I see their sorrow as they see the horror Russia is doing to Ukraine and its own citizens. You cannot choose where you are born, and they are sad to see the decline of the country they grew up in.
It would be interesting to find out the actual reason Apple didn’t do this earlier. Maybe there was a low, but now it’s gone, or maybe there was a huge misunderstanding within Apple, and after a while nobody questioned it and just went with it. Would be strange, as Find my beings extra revenues through AirTag sales, so Apple was losing money on this for years.
It’s an interesting debate, if what we are seeing now is the natural, inevitable progress of capitalism, or it could have gone a better way, but eg. Reagan fucked it up for all of us in the 70s.
“This matters because we’re rapidly approaching a world where AI systems will manage increasingly important decisions.”
How about we just don’t do that?
