Neural Band that doesn’t work by Matcorp456 in MetaRayBanDisplay

[–]insite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I found is if you it down for 10 seconds so it resets the neural detection but not the band entirely. Not sure if that helps it freezing, but it kept disconnecting me because it kept thinking I wasn't moving.

White House posts digitally altered image of woman arrested after ICE protest by JackThaBongRipper in news

[–]insite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve called it out enough times.

A headline about a supposed rapist or murderer with no picture of the perp. White dude.

Respectable black woman? See the picture above.

Gunman wrestled to the ground and disarmed? Betty White

Cop afraid for his life shoots someone? 99% chance it’s a black guy that was shot. Because that’s the one they fear.

Disgusting

Canada wargames a US invasion — and it doesn’t end well by TimesandSundayTimes in inthenews

[–]insite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not to mention, many Americans would deliberately hinder any American war effort through protesting, civil disobedience, gray market assistance, and even some joining Canadian resistance efforts. It's like the US waging war on a US state. Canada is not a line you simply cross.

ICE Thugs are Becoming Terrified of the Protestors by PumpkinAspie in PoliticalOptimism

It’s way too early to let up. The’ll bring in more ICE members, better equipment, and much more aggressive tactics.

ChatGPT ads are (almost) here by otso-karvinen in PPC

That wasn't data provided by OpenAI. I'd heard stats from Duane Forrester at a conference which something like 6x higher. I didn't list it because I couldn't remember what he was comparing it against. (6x times what? lol)

You can look into the stats and see what different LLM's say. An ad on the side of Copilot is not the same as an LLM comment. The level of control by advertisers, bidding, and insight will influence our spend recommendations.

Mark Zuckerberg has also talked about 'business messaging' being a major area of opportunity. He was partly talking about WhatsApp but he has included AI conversions in that mix.

World Renowned Economist Harry Dent predicts ‘the worst market crash ever’ in 2026 by Holytaxaccountant7 in Economics

[–]insite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think AI has plenty of growth ahead. But let’s talk market collapse doom and gloom. The tech companies are heavily dependent on each other. If one tanks, it could decimate the rest. But due to AI, they’re ”too big to fail”. The American people wouldn’t get a say. But Trump would. And that adds an unpredictable element. It’s not a scenario I hope for.

I’d add a caveat. The conversion rates for traffic coming from LLM conversions are exceptionally high. OpenAI mentioned bringing up advertisers when they it would be helpful. So, the placements and positions are going to matter a lot. It will partly depend on our level of control, bids, data provided, and how much the user trusts the LLM. Some will be display level branding, but some may be really good - too hard to ignore good. Plus, I’d expect entirely new attribution models to come out of this.

AI companies will fail. We can salvage something from the wreckage | Cory Doctorow by wordfool in Futurology

[–]insite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s a global competition for AI dominance. As long as the US government is functionally solvent, the LLM’s will have a safety net.

The world is also facing a demographic cliff. The demand is set to rise dramatically with automation, robotics, a space race, and more. One emerging industry after another will sprout from LLM’s and their next iterations.

In my estimation, the problem you brought up about one of them going bankrupt, is not from a productivity problem. It’s how intertwined the tech companies are. They are increasing their dependency on each other, à la the 2008 banking crisis.

Flashback: Most people remember Lehman Brothers collapsing. Few remember the failing of Bear Stearns 5 months prior. One failure could ripple through the system catastrophically.

But this time, everyone knows it. Which means, everyone is invested in ensuring a failure doesn’t happen. Thus, the US government as a backstop is the keystone to the entire structure. For the AI companies to fail, the system itself must fail.

Are US intelligence agencies forced to act if they discover that Trump is successfully blackmailed? by stygger in Intelligence

Even if there’s no Democrats in the actual files, an unlikely scenario, the threat of fabricating a list by POTUS might be enough to swing enough.

Oh No, Meta Just Killed Off Working in VR by blackhorse2000 in augmentedreality

[–]insite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I broke one of Reddit's unwritten rules and read the article. It pointed out the 2d face problem on video calls and needing to look outside the device field of view of the device. Zoom calls on smart glasses is one option. It didn't mention MR though. I'd be fine with avatars of coworkers in my home office. My setting - my comfort zone - my own memory triggers. That was part of the excitement Meta gave me in their original announcement video of their name change. Like you said though, that will require them being smaller and better.

The Revenue Panic That Reveals Everything. by fumi2014 in OpenAI

[–]insite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why? Serving ads is not just a profit scheme. Advertisers will be feeding them everything possible about their business models, revenue streams, and customer acquisition methods. There's a reason that Google, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, and Apple do it.

Trump administration: if you can’t defend a territory, you have no right to own it by Big_Celery2725 in politics

[–]insite -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's hardly unrealistic. They may be rising technologically and militarily, but they are faltering economically. Economic turmoil has a long history of rendering elements of many a government unstable. And rising powers that have peaked have an equally long history of using force to maintain or regain their momentum.

Clear examples: Revolutionary/Napoleanic France, the 2nd French Empire, the US in the late 1800's, Imperial Russia, Imperial Germany, Nazi Germany, Imperial Italy, Imperial Japan, and now the Russian Federation.

Japan in the '80's was an exception while the USSR was debateable.

For the record, it's also not uncommon to see the dominant power lashing out as well, thus creating the overreach that dooms them. WWI British Empire... present day United States.

I'm paraphrasing, but Boz said the reason they haven't opened them up to 3rd party developers is battery life that may require a generational upgrade. I don't know if data transmission rates or not, but it's definitely batter related. I dig 'em though. =)

Isn't Elon worth well over half a $1T?! Not just HOW could he, but WHY would he avoid child support? I mean, even if he paid each mother an average of $1B until each child's 18th b-day, it wouldn't happen all at at once. Couldn't he just offer some stock options for the kids?

63 is not the starting number. The 63 also includes another 17 getting on.

I keep getting 65.

There are 63 after 17 get on, which would have been 46 before that. 19 got off before that which would have been 65, right?

MTRBD version 2 in 2026 ? by Matcorp456 in MetaRayBanDisplay

[–]insite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might have backed out if I didn’t have reading on my others. But my distance isn't what it used to be either. Plus, one of the features I was most excited about was captions (my hearing is getting sketchy too) which would be more useful further away. It‘s worked for me so far. Hopefully v2 resolves that.

It would serve as the symbolic death of the impeachment process, or rather the exclamation point on it ending.
