My favorite episode. They had memories like sieves because they could look up everything and every single interaction.

You can be sure the providers will make sure they're not legally responsible and that the system prompt has been reviewed by the Legal Dept. So it's you, the user.

Can it help me topple the system?

How are you going to end 100 years of humiliation if you all behave so embarrassingly? R/solarpunk was full of poor attempts to green wash China. Why should we accept the same on Lemmy?

Sigh.. here we go again.

Who said anything about Chinese people?

It's hilarious. Another one if these faux Chinese Solarpunk propaganda stories. Cute.

I've always argued that vertical integration is the only way you'll make LLMs somewhat accepted and useful. The article is making the same point. Having a virtual girlfriend like in "Her" isn't appealing to the average person, but certain results achieved by an agent without seeming like the BS output of an LLM may be seen as useful.

Not sure. I assume they have a better IR filter than the small cameras used for the pervert glasses.

Although they may be IR sensitive because they also need to work at night though. Would need to see the technical specs.

There are infrared reflecting glasses that blind cameras.

I believe you, but can you name one so we can all learn more about the alternatives out there?

Aren't you assuming productivity gains will lead to free time? Why? It never has. Most of us work a fixed amount of time and get paid for that time. Not the amount of tasks we finish if that can even be measured.

Salaries have also not increased with increased productivity long before chatbots came online. So they won't suddenly increase now.

AI is much more just like a new laptop you get from work. The new device is faster, has more RAM and allows you to do more, potentially.

The big question is, if the purchase was worth it. Unlike a new laptop, LLMs are an ongoing cost to users and providers. Nobody except for GPU producers are actually making money right now. Hyperscalers make some of the money back they themselves invested into the companies using their services, but in the end the ROI looks pretty dim for anyone.

So even if there are real productivity gains, you won't see people relax with their kids more. And even if these gains are significant they may not prevent a huge economic collapse so we all will have plenty of time with our kids in the end anyway.
