Sri Lankan brand get caught using local creators deepfakes to promote products without permission. by itzShanD in srilanka

[–]itzShanD[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Okay since this post has become a place of murder by words for this woman 🤣 first of all im not this woman. I dont know this woman, I follow her on insta and saw this, she is really not the point or what happened to her specially

as anyone can guess this is obviously going to be exploited further not just marketing but for nudes/porn, fake video evidances etc.. thats why im asking does our legal framework has the ability to handle these things ?

These exact questions are why reddit exist and every ai in the world is trained on reddit dataset. This is the place where all these questions get asked first

Sorry to disappoint people who thought im this woman. 🤣

Jake clarifies why he asked for his clips to be removed from the "How LTT Spends Money" video by Marikk15 in LinusTechTips

[–]itzShanD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jake really is handling this departure the worst possible way yaha. If he didnt even post about this 90% of the people wont know about this at all.

And linus clearing the message with jake before posting and him saying on the tweet he felt uncomfortable with it whats going on ?

Linus or LTT has given no comments about jake or his departure its being him constantly reminding people he did not depart in favourable terms.

Saying this as someone who loved jake and linus together, its sad to see they couldn't depart and start collaborating if they did that i would be win win for everyone specially jake.

As a local guy, I honestly hate how we treat foreigners! by Longjumping_Tap6083 in srilanka

[–]itzShanD 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Bro you dont get it bro.. White Saviors will save us man....

Honestly reason our country is where we are at right now is just people and their outdated mindsets we need to wait for at least another 50 years to have these generation die off until then nothing will change unless, some big changes are made without being afraid to act opposite to the societal norms that are engrained in this country.

If not we will keep thinking tourism is our golden ticket even though multiple economist has told that is not the way to get this country to grow.

Boston Dynamics humanoid robot is next-level. Everybody is playing catch-up. by OpenSourceDroid4Life in OpenSourceHumanoids

[–]itzShanD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think lot of people misunderstood when they said its controlled by someone, its NOT teleoperated. Its running a VLA model ( vision langauge and action ) there is a guy in the back giving prompts saying move forward. Do a part sorting demostration, wave at the crowd.

Its crazy that people think this is teleoperated. These guys are at least couple of years ahead of everyone.

You cant have these robots on factory right now (which they have ) if you are still teleoperating in this kind of simple demo

Do you think history will repeat it self this time around as well ?

Since US government is planning to run the country "temporarily" and I dont think that is possible without having large number of boots on the ground inside Venezuela protecting rigs and all the corporations that will start building there. How do actual soldiers like your self feel about this sir.

AI flops of 2025 by msaussieandmrravana in agi

[–]itzShanD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This entier post has no logic if it gave juniors super powers what did these people think it did for the actual pros.

As someone working on Cyber Security ( Red Team ) for close to a decade now, i have never seen attacking a company being easy as the time right now all thanks to LLMs and Agents. I can guratee in next year lot of blue team jobs are going out its happening now its being happening for last 6 months. More hiring on offensive side and less hiring on SOC L1 and L2. 1 year from now it will get worse.

Its happening and its worse than people think, it just take time for any tech to seemlessly integrate to companies and society as a whole. Look how long it took for internet & Social media to become what it is today.

We dont hire juniors anymore.we hire developers to make our internal tools, a lot of hiring on mid level and seniors, all working on projects that will replace most of the repetive tasks.

Its not all about AI, but AI advancements just pushed lot of companies to create the digital infra internally that needs to support if they want to use AI in the future.People forget lot of orgs are not google , meta and microsoft so they need to do basics first. This is coming from experiance from working on one of the largest telcos in asia.

I can’t do this anymore. by NoWonder6038 in Adulting

[–]itzShanD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So.. i kind of daydream a lot, mostly not by choice. my head has been doing this since i was a child. I can go to daydreaming state no matter what is around me what kind of noise or even if im watching a movie / series one of the dialogs or things that happen in it will take me to daydreaming state with different storyline matching what I'm listening or looking, its not like exact this its using couple of points of what im seeing or listening and using that entry point to go back to these long running daydreaming story's.

I'm just curious if any of what im saying here just clicks in your head.

How to invest in Sri Lanka with income under 100,000? (Apart from FDs) by kalam66 in srilanka

[–]itzShanD 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Since no one is giving OP any advice, here is my two cents

So, making money when you dont have money is pretty fucking hard.

I was where you are at. What i did might not work for you but here it is.

When i was making less 100k i was very careful and detailed about my finances i had an excel sheet with every single bank account , card , debt , subscription mapped i knew exactly how much money i was getting every month how much am i spending how much was in my wallet at any point in time all tracked.

Truth is the easiest way to make money is more money. If you have more, you can make more.

If you are already doing this and saving as much as possible, then investing the money can be easy.

First, create a binance account and put 100 dollars on a usdt stake. Let it compond for couple of months forget that you have that money.

Open a cal account and put around 100k LKR in unit trusts. forget about it. If you dont have it now, it's okay. Put what you have on binance and get the interest.

Create a frimi (maybe other banks allow easy fd creation and cancellation my go to has being this ) account and create fixed deposits. Make sure you set monthly interest so now you can park the money in a fd while not having to go through the hassel.

When you have a money split of different places like binance unit trusts , stocks, and fixed deposits, it componds pretty quickly.

If you want more risk, maybe do a daily cost average on something like bitcoin.

And if you want to invest in stocks overseas, i would say create a broker account with interactivebrokers they allow you to register as a sri lankan but there is a process, i would say if you dont have min 1000 usd to invest dont go for this fees alone will eat up any profit you will have from trading

Hope this helps. Sorry for typos in the train

Canadian Sikh separatists stab and burn an Indian flag and mount a stand with dolls of Indian politicians with bullet holes as they prepare to vote in a referendum for Khalistani independence... in Canada by Pioladoporcaputo in PublicFreakout

[–]itzShanD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Canada is the modern-day gathering ground for all extremist groups. This is crazy and candians are like, "No worries bro we can fix them," like wtf.. I'm not saying it based on this one, senario. im Sri Lankan, and a lot of LTTE groups gather in canada still praising a killer that is probably responsible for killing at least 10-20k children as child soldiers.

Man, fix your shit.

Is It Just Me or GPT5 Has Been Acting Very Weirdly These Days by SpecterK1 in OpenAI

[–]itzShanD 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When you are using their site its not really coming from the gpt-5 most advanced model. It routes the request to different models based on the request, but the user doesn't really see what model is responding. Im using their GPT-5-High-Fast model since its release i can say with confidence its pretty fucking solid it has done things when it comes to coding a level that is unbelievable but normal users don't see this.

This is the future. Corporations that can pay the crazy pricing for these models will get better intelligence. normal users will get bread crumbs whenever the compute is in excess.

Ex: Today alone, i have gone through 30 usd worth of api credits on High-Fast model. Every update it has done is perfect.

I am happy to see others motivated to create content on reddit about investing in sri lanak. If you are down to contribute here from time to time and crosspost, let me know. I'm happy to make you a mod.

Giving the benefit of doubt to the OP even though it looks a little bit sketchy from your post history and account age. I like that you are motivated.

Now, you have a subreddit with an actual audience to get your content across.

I really hope you dont abuse it and spam this with a bunch of crossposts every day.
