@lobingera@chaos.social Slightly different. "search results you see may not be the most relevant for your query" is very different to "We're providing actual information which has a reasonably likelihood of being wrong, and potentially dangerously wrong". @david_chisnall@infosec.exchange @tante@tldr.nettime.org

@mason So true. I saw this on here a couple of weeks ago. @etchedpixels @liw

@SueDiOh @tayfonay

@andycarolan My dishwasher has a WiFi connection and an app so I can start it remotely. No idea how I'm supposed to load it remotely though. @miffyhelen

@michielw Ethernet light bulbs? Over POE? Like your style. @db

@Pamela1960 The Hifi Shop sketch is one of the best bits of comedy ever. Still accurate today. @2legged

@ianbetteridge Lots going on here. Protest votes against Labour and reform are contributing factors, I suspect. But also, historically a lot of people have avoided the Greens because while they like their green policies, a lot of their other general policies were bonkers. Now we've got Nutjobs Reform and the Mad Tories, and Labour also appears to have lost their collective minds, it's making the green non-environmental manifesto look more sensible...

@duckwhistle Given how often people lose or forget to return their key cards when they check out, having room-specific keys isn't really a logistically sound idea. @mfdeakin @mattblaze

@mattblaze Given the recent news about one hotel chain giving a rando a keycard just by knowing the occupant's name, I'm not sure any hotel security should be trusted.

@ianbetteridge@social.vivaldi.net Don't threaten me with a good time.

@david_chisnall This has been a problem with recipe blogging for years, and isn't to do with AI. Your favourite recipe will have 5 pages of the author talking about how the recipe reminds them of summers at the beach with their gran, and a load of other irrelevant tosh. Then after you've scrolled enough to load 50 ads, the ingredients and method will be right at the bottom.

@alec@perkins.pub Simpler, but effective. Our friend printed this custom tea drawer organiser for our new kitchen. We love it. ☕ @marcoarment@mastodon.social

@liw Same. And at our age we have the luxury that if this AI BS doesn't calm down in the next 3-5 years we can chuck it all in the sea and retire.

@marcoarment@mastodon.social It's the software equivalent of inserting a USB plug prior to USB-C.

@marcoarment@mastodon.social I solve this problem by sitting on my ass all day and not working out. #winning Oh, and not owning a smartwatch at all.

@julescelt01@universeodon.com All of our cameras, mostly Reolink, have the Internet access explicitly blocked via the router. It's the only way to be sure. Of course, I can still access them remotely via the VPN to my house, but they are blocked from contacting anything on the Web. @craz8@hachyderm.io @QasimRashid@mastodon.social

@maltimore@social.tchncs.de The reason we call it spicy autocomplete is because it is just a prediction model on the stuff it's ingested. What you seem to miss is that we already had all this, with Google. All LLMs have done is make it feel like something is answering, instead of being honest and returning results that match a search query. @ngaylinn@tech.lgbt @anizocani@tech.lgbt @DrewKadel@social.coop

@alan @roque @finlaydag33k @Rollenspielblog @holothuroid Isn't that "too much bollocks, didn't read"?

@codinghorror@infosec.exchange Can't we automate the execution? @TonyVladusich@mathstodon.xyz @RyeNCode@mstdn.ca @womble@infosec.exchange

@Chip_Unicorn Said it before and will say it again. If your level of programming expertise is such that it will be enhanced by using an LLM, you don't understand the dangers of LLMs and should not be coding with them. And if your level of expertise is enough that you understand the risks of LLMs, then you don't need an LLM to code.

@acb This is the same UI used by the main risk-management platform at the world leading investment bank Goldman Sachs. Yes, really.

@CodingItWrong Those folks should consider that 20-30 years ago, getting a computer with the same compute power and screen resolution as a modern smartphone would have needed hundreds of thousands of dollars, and a large room to house it in. @marcoarment

@renek That's the worst (and most wrong) definition of a Computer I've ever heard. @marcoarment

@ged It's called "fun". You should consider trying it. @nikitonsky

@thirstybear@agilodon.social Came here to write this. It'll be like Y2K all over again. @nixCraft@mastodon.social

@inthehands@hachyderm.io It's known as the Cobra Effect (which has a Wikipedia page).

@John_Loader@ohai.social How do you know? Do you have trackers on your exported electrons? @rachel@norfolk.social @christineburns@mastodon.green
