Say no to 72 hour work weeks. Working more hours does not increase quality of work or even quantity, but is does increase stress and suicide rates. Stop accepting it’s OK to be ground into dust just so you can barely earn a living. Tell those CEO’s to take their jobs and shove it, especially in Sililcon Valley. That place is no longer the pinnacle of technological innovation it was in the late 90’s. It’s been nothing but a guilded shithole bastion for technocrats.
Looks like it’s Sam Altman’s turn to ram his hand up there to make the puppet talk now. That is word for word what that tech douche nozzle says.
“But is it a just a wheel if we add cloud and AI features to it? Think of all the leveraging of paradigm shifts!” . The trap explodes taking everyone out; even Steve in accounting who had nothing to do with this and wasn’t even in the same building.
From the article:
“Garrison said his comments represent his own views and not those of the San Bernardino Sheriff’s department. He also cautioned that what he’s doing is in its infancy and it might be years before authorities can reliably match a gun to the machine that made it, if they can do it at all.”
At best it’s a lead which a good investigator would use to find other leads. It’s extremely far fetched one but better than nothing. It’s good that he noted this can’t really be used to convict in a criminal trial. At worst, which is my concern, lazy investigators just saying “the computer is right” and getting the wrong person. The lazy investigator scenario happens a lot with shitty technology portrayed as CSI bullshit, especially when these garbage companies tack “AI” on to it.
This is taking advantage of Off-Duty officers and the way Extra Jobs work. You too can hire a police officer if you negotiate with that agency without this app. This is how some small towns are able to get police officers from other agencies to patrol their neighborhoods, and not just the rich ones, when they are short cops. This app is a shortcut to that and yes it is a problem because they are essentially offering a gig job to cops much like Uber or Doordash and seem to be bypassing a lot of the negotiating. But this is not at all a new concept. You know those cops working on the side of the road with their flashy lights on construction projects? Yeah they have been doing that for years.
You now how you fix this problem? You vote out the mayor, or whoever that agency’s top boss is in favor of someone that looks out for the public interest and not their own. Or you read your local laws on how to start legislation to outlaw apps that offer gig jobs to law enforcement.
They can streamline all they want and keep pumping out forgettable content. Nothing tops great makeup work and special effects. “American Werewolf in London” transformation scene will always haunt me and I will never forget the title of that movie.
Microsoft’s AI, which is OpenAI, is approved for Defense Contracts. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/16/openai-wins-200-million-us-defense-contract.html It even has an ominous project name which was posted to a public site which I cannot seem to recall at the moment.
That’s quite a bold statement to make since he now has US military contracts. What is he making cupcakes for the Pentagon?
“Dead Internet Theory” would turn into the “Law of Dead Internet” if that happens. It’s pretty close right now as it is. At that point either a new “Internet” is born from a technology renaissance, or humans continue to co-exist with AI in their new role as Internet Zombie Cash Cows.
going to have interesting results if powered by Grok…
Remember when the Pentagon spent something like 600 million dollars in new accounting software to find the missing 400 million dollars? Something like that. I’m guessing this deal was made when they were still buddies and the Pentagon is just now getting around to it considering the speed of government is slower than constipated molasses. I’m also imagining someone just rubber stamping anything coming across their desk and this is how we got here. If there is any hope, Grok will be shoved into a corner doing nothing except earning dividends for that ketamine fueled moron and and fall in line with the Pentagon’s egregious wasteful spending that nobody in congress seems to care about.
“Now with 80% more MechaHilter comments in your source code file’s source for that extra bonus source! What are ya waiting for??”
The point of the thread was for the influencers to fucking go and get a real job because they’re just rotting brains anyway. It started with tide pods and it’s grown into the exact thing you just stated. All that manosphere bullshit for example. You don’t think all those podcasts, Twitch, and whatever the fuck else today’s teenagers could get their hands on had any influence whatsoever from from all these dipshit people? We were all shitty teenagers so get off that “BRO I WAS A FUCKING TEACHER” high horse. It’s just worse now because they’re constantly bombarded by stupid fucking ideas. Welcome to the failure of the education system! Sorry you had to eat shit daily to find out I guess!
Just go hide back under your rock. Next thing you’ll say is that kids are absolutely safe minded individuals that stop and think about their safety and the safety of others when see they something that intrigues them.
Folks, ask yourselves, what game is out there that REALLY needs a 5090? If you have the money to piss away, by all means, it’s your money. But let’s face it, games have plateaued and VR isn’t all that great.
Nvidia’s market is not you anymore. It’s the massive corporations and research firms for useless AI projects or number crunching. They have more money than all gamers combined. Maybe time to go outside; me included.
I would imagine this is very similar to marking a cop on Waze and completely legal which is why they are throwing a hissy fit.
So, maybe a “human take the wheel” followed by a “slam the brakes” if no input is detected in 2-3 seconds.
I have seen reports where Tesla logic appears as “Human take the wheel since the airbag is about to deploy in the next 2 micro seconds after solely relying on camera object detection and this is totally YOUR fault, kthxbai!” If there was an option to allow the bot to physically bail out of the car as it rolls you onto the tracks while you’re still sitting in the passenger seat, that’s how I would envision how this auto pilot safety function works.
Dude wants to do a lot of things and fails to accomplish what he says he’s doing to do or ends up half-assing it. So let him take Grok and run it right into the ground like an autopiloted Cybertruck rolling over into a flame trench of an exploding Startship rocket still on the pad shooting flames out of tunnels made by the Boring Company.
The fact that they purposely cripple your equipment with software is ludicrous. It’s even more ridiculous to expect farmers to know IT when they used to be able to fix their equipment with hammers and wrenches. After well over a decade, it’s good to see movement is finally being made to address this absolute b.s. It’s not just John Deere doing this, a lot of the major companies are selling you stuff you don’t truly own. Take your phone for example.
This dude is just throwing all kinds of ninja smoke on the floor trying to get out from under that Epstein File case. He’s already “DOGE’D” everything he just said out of existence. He basically wants Grok everywhere but without saying it because he doesn’t want to show Elon he still loves him. But he can’t enforce this beyond his own government which he is still crippling at the moment. That white house page is like a giant tweet poster for Orange Chicken Little and serves as a distraction.
