Then they do it on the OS, forcing people to swap to Linux - But the majority of users wouldn’t know how

Football manager have always had “let’s kick racism out of football” and other NGOs represented on their banners - Because they had no clue what to do with it, I’m pretty sure there’s a settings option to replace them with real paid ads now

For corporate software, there’s so many bugfixes and features, which require so few additions/changes that it’s faster to do it than to write the prompt.

But obviously only if you’re able to hold the entire codebase in your skull, but a proficient developer should be able to do so.

If people begin outsourcing these changes to LLMs, then they’re cooked and no longer able to verify the output.

Agriculture may use AI to inform how they do things, and eventually, machines could then take that knowledge and run the farm for you.

Given how straight tractors drive, the way you can programme the topend to self plant/harvest a field. The driving itself isn’t AI, but there’s a ton of image recognition software popping up that can limit the amount of pesticides used. As they’re able to recognise the exact areas in need of them.

Then we have drones able to capture soil efficiency and there’s probably a ton of other cases. AI is definitely altering farming and in theory could also reduce the needed amount of manpower - As more and more specialised machinery, can be used more or less autonomously. There’s legitimately farms in the Netherlands marked as airports, so they’re allowed to fly drones of a certain size. And all the imagery processing is also depending on a kind of AI

I think a big unknown right now, would be how many Millennium Problems are new GenAI techniques able to bruteforce with existing mathematical techniques/theories?

We just saw one massive bruteforce, can we bruteforce any of the Millennium problems related to cryptography? Because then all hell could break lose rather quickly

AND it’s subsidised by too big a supply of compute power - Microsoft prints demand for Azure, by buying ownership stakes in openAI through the grant of Azure credits. There’s too much available compute.

Most national medias are running AI services to translate “important” international stories.

I wish they’d spend less time running international stories (I know it’s for the boomers incapable of reading English) and more time on doing proper journalism

As stated, it’s about how you act mentally.

Zoomer is internet slang for someone acting young

It was sad to see that students with so much access to tech became so … I don’t even know.

Tech became too easy to use. In the 00s, you’d need to have an understanding of file paths. You’d need to know where a programmes files were located, to fix whatever broke

Eventually “auto repair” became the standard, then we moved onto handheld consoles (smartphones and tablets). Which relied on app stores, that already confirmed the app wouldn’t destroy anything. So all these annoying to deal with issues just… Vanished. But so did skill, because you never needed the skill to solve a problem in the first place

It’s still a calculator, it just misses some features. It’s one didactical way to include calculators.

You’re ending up with a larger group of pupils “mastering” basic calculations through counting, when you remove the calculator as a tool for learning. Using the strategy of “counting all”, is one of the clearest signs a 1st grade pupil will be behind their peers in 4th grade.

Broken calculator (just search for it), is one way to include calculators in a didactic way. But using calculators in general, improves a kids ability to estimate results - Which is an ability that helps anyone out tremendously, as it’s giving you a clear idea if something went completely wrong in a calculation

This is kind of like the “you won’t have a calculator with you all the time” argument by your 8th grade math teacher in 2003

Which is grand, given we’ve had researchers agreeing effectively incorporating calculators into math education improves everyone’s ability to do math without calculators - Since the 90s

There’s pretty good arguments to include calculators from a really young age, to improve the understanding of numbers

One persons terrorist is another persons freedom fighter

Fast fashion is a different topic from the machine produced vs tailor point they’re making.

Made to order is getting more and more traction, because we have machines able to fully automate it. Making higher quality clothing more available than ever

Unc is older than a zoomer, but younger than a boomer.

Mentally, nothing to do with physical age. Just how you present yourself mentally

Deepseek publicly claims to have created their models, by distilling competitors and that’s why they’re able to create them really really cheap.

There could be other motives behind such a claim, such as making competitors fear making their most powerful tools public.

Of course they have frontier labs around as well, at the very least at various universities.

What is the last known case of a US soldier disregarding an unlawful order?

Plenty of such reports from falcon pilots. They’re close enough to see the destruction they’re causing, so several stories have emerged of pilots calling off attacks

The vast majority of long distance goods is moved by containers. Because it’s the most effective, not fastest, but effective way of travel.

Which is a big reason for warehouses existing, so you can buy your Chinese product. But it only needs to be send from a warehouse in Cologne, rather than as an individually shipped product from Shenzhen

20*21*12 is more than 50k?

many monarchies are hereditary celebrities rather than hereditary leaders, where the position is kept around for the tourism value and they do not have (or claim to have) any right to rule over people

There is some power, although due to it not having been exercised for a century. Lawyers argue the legal texts are no longer binding.

But they’re ultimately the last entity that should block a party, if they turn full on authoritarian. All democracies need a non political entity, to overlook the democratic process and stop undemocratic moves.

Finland has a president for the same reason, and likewise does several other European nations.
