@ProfT you know, in most areas the general populous of cyclists ignores the rules creating a negative stigmata around the group as a whole from general society. Arguing the benefits is as effective as me arguing the benefits of ripping through the streets of various Asian cities on my CBR at 1am at speeds cars just aren't capable of.. the best safety is self awareness. Trying to influence society today is pointless, the only people that can be reached is the like minded cause they already agree with you..

@skyblond I gave up on php 😐 I'm w node / go junkie now..

@freemo I've been in the ASEAN for 8 years.. it's awesome over here.. Singapore is exactly like the US though but cleaner..

@freemo haha I lived on sukumvit soi 64 for a year.. 👍 Bangkok is a foodie paradise.. Lapua tower is where hangover 2 was for the interpol raid scene, it's a killer oyster resto

@ErikJonker

I have nothing but 🤣 for this one

If you've noticed, Google always moves slow with most products. One of the main reasons they're moving slowly with their AI products, is unlike most companies, they have both horizontal and vertical integration to deal with. AI in search isn't as big of a deal as AI with device integration. Google Assistant connects to a plethora of other applications, as well as devices to create a more immersive and "real world" impact using other products like Google Nest, and Google Home giving their AI the power of decentralization and lifestyle automation.

GPT may have an extreme ability to perform informational tasks, but its' safeguards system is still being bypassed. GPT cannot access your personal data, communications, your home, your devices, your car. So it can afford to be sloppy. Googles' AI is also integrated into their own infrastructure as well, it's both modular yet collaborative with its' own components. When they make a small change to these core components, it impacts billions of people because of how integrated they are. GPT is impressive because of its retention and ability to determine contexts, and produce complex creative output, but the negative impacts aside from misinformation, like the mass majority of users being students to produce their homework, Google also cares about the ethical impacts of such systems as well.

There are actually many AI that are far superior, but are heavily protected due to how powerful they are, and how much resources they take to operate. Large scale data aggregation isn't cheap, so monitization is another factor that must be considered. It's true that Google has a fierce amount of money they can invest, but they won't without a return, that's how they got the money to begin with. GPT is leaking money like a screen door on a submarine.

But I'm excited to see what Google does also. ☺️

@ErikJonker I think government subsidization of startups with proven qualifications and targets would be a great idea, it could also be issued as a bond. GPT is just the beginning of a long and bending transition into a complex to simplified life cycle problem..

@SpinozasHeresy this is just a wild guess, but I bet they have some kind of "stop making us liable for unproven data" cheatsheet given to them from their networks law department to protect them from the responsibility in saying things that sensationalize the limited perspectives that target time slot demographics.. but just to prove I'm actually a dick, if you don't like it, you don't have to watch it 🤷 and if your goal is to be informed, just collectively gather data regardless of bias, and do a differential reduction and read the remainder. 👍

@freeschool I don't think monopolization of data is the same as totalitarianism, I get they control the largest market share for data profiling but think about this. They won't be top dog forever, no tech company ever has and no tech company ever will. I do miss my BlackBerry 😂. The problem is like a leviathan, the users don't care, and the companies will innovate ways of taking advantage. As AI is percolating into mainstream uiux this will only grow and shift again in a new direction. To fix it will require data usage awareness of the masses, which will require adaptation of the education systems on a global scale. Unfortunately though the basic human desire to be competitive will still drive people to show off their tail feathers that they're achieving more than their peers and that will dump roughly the same amounts of personal data. To achieve this via regulations would require funding comparable to the revenues in the current lobby streams in the political arena and how could that happen without the same marketing engine that creates the problem to begin with? I don't think it can.. 🤷

@tripu human beings are animals too, and we adapt ourselves albeit more of our environment than ourselves, to certain cultural situations, much as many other animals can do as well and be content via acclamation. Yeah yeah yeah we shouldn't have a crocodile as a pet, but if it's done by correctly replicating it's environment in an extremely large apartment the crocodile should be happy enough or at least content.

@tripu some pets develop a sense of security in such environments, some others could care less. To classify all pets as having the same emotional and psychological balance is a strange thing to do. As noted above, I think it's cruel to entrap humans into social structures in which different classes of humans have an authority determined by a region collectively controlled by previous subsets of humans.

@freeschool I don't think people are gonna do that because the general population really doesn't care if Google makes money by indexing their content.. infact that will only make their content more popular so they'll probably be happy about it.. me personally, I wouldn't post something publicly I don't want others to see

@ErikJonker
I don't think you can get this totally right, because of how the data is aggregated and voted on, but they'll get closer than Bing

@ErikJonker
It's just a response to Bings chatgpt integration but they're working on fact checking before deployment..

@jellycrystals well rocknroll, I've been to a place in Thailand that was a variation but I couldn't read the sign 😂

@jellycrystals ooooooh so it's a dim sum selection.. I thought it was a particular type of food..

@jellycrystals whoa what's yum cha?

Good afternoon morning evening Qoto..
What's new with you?
