Pretty common. Experimentally, it seems the implicit formula many use for IM is something like
Fewer than K words + a period = probability P(deliberately curt) = 50%, where K is at least 5, and P increases logarithmically as K approaches 1.
Which is how, to someone using this formula internally, “Great.” can denote exasperation, “Thanks.” can imply strained manners, and so forth 🤷
Because ‘judgement’ is an inherently grounded ability, something LLMs cannot exercise, fundamentally, only mimic or approximate with heuristics. Sorry but obvious is obvious.
You are an incredibly patient and polite person. I doubt I’d make it past the first failed attempt. If he kept up with the patriots after that I’d suggest we “discuss it some other time,” or even walk to a nearby section with “brb.” Either way, I’d never make it to 45 minutes and multiple failures with my blood pressure intact.
Ah just like me babushka used to make
Individual photos could be transferred. And most of their recent SOCs can do on-device image interpretation. That’s how their Photos app captions and labels pictures. It’d probably work OK for large objects even at low fidelity So I think that’s possible.
Still not really sure how they would capture video. At nearly any resolution it would heavily tax the grain of rice size battery, on top of the processing power needed for encoding a video stream, and that’s assuming their new chip includes P2P WiFi capability to solve the bandwidth issue.
What I expected they might try was passive spatial mesh construction using either SLAM or LiDAR to integrate with their spatial computing and accessibility or indoor navigation. But if all it’s doing is describing what can be captured in a photo, that sounds plausible.
He never uses /s and I’ve seen him eat way more downvotes than this. But yes, he’s playing on a Robert A Heinlein quote.
Good riddance. Let’s get some progressives in there.
Honestly this is why I stopped teasing shutterbugs and selfie takers. Just realizing that (a) not all selfies are necessarily destined for social media, and (b) the regrettable alternative might be no pictures of friends with you in them, or even no pictures of those you care about, for long stretches of life that memory tends to eventually consolidate.
The shutterbug in the friend group might be the one reason you remember so well the time you spent with them many years later.
Maybe BS, but I’d wager only partly true, because the kind of sensors needed for basic local environment awareness aren’t “cameras” in the usual sense even if the have an array of photoreceptors like a camera uses. It might be better described as a higher resolution version of the IR light detectors currently used.
Regardless, given a few undeniable technical realities, like ridiculously tiny batteries and the bandwidth requirements of video vs available BT throughput, there is 0% chance of these earbuds becoming pervglasses-like surveillance wear.
Reactionaries and sourgrapists don’t give a rats ass about truth, however, so prepare for sensationalist headlines no matter what.
I’m going to assume you mean the ballista-like Roman siege engine not the whitefox defense aerial detection system
I remember when I started encountering somewhat younger adults verbally spell out chat acronyms like “lmao” and “rofl.” I thought it was hilarious, but eventually realized there had been a social shift. Interactions had become online-first, and for some younger people that was basically all of it, and I wasn’t sure how I felt about that.
