CEO of Google Says It Has No Solution for Its AI Providing Wildly Incorrect Information (futurism.com)

You know how Google's new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won't slide off (pssst...please don't do this.)...

What y'all are forgetting is that when it comes to dominating a technology space, historically, it's not proving the better product, is providing the cheapest/widest available product. With the goal being to capture enough of the market to get and retain that dominant position. Nobody knows what the threshold is for that until years later when the dust has settled.

So from Google's perspective if a new or current rival is going to get there first, then just push it out and fix it live. What are people going to do? Switch to Bing?

So is you want Google to stop doing this dumb broken LLM shite, use the network effect against them. Switch to a different search provider and browser and encourage all of your friends and family to do so as well.

I mean if this is Google's new Google+ moment there's only one person we can call upon in our time of need:

Get. Your. Guns.

Look, you can howl at every mass shooting and the lack of response for dealing with gun control and a responsible gun culture unlike some other countries in the world.

But you can't play with your dream hand you've got to play with hand you've been dealt.

And in the American game, guns = might = rights. So show up with them and don't act stupid.

Act cool, calm, and collected. Show these chud that if they really want to escalate to a civil war, they're not going to be the only ones firings shots. Don't fire the first one, fire the last.

I am not going to like the day they remove that.

ThePyroPython ,

I have, I just use it to view Reddit without an account.

ThePyroPython ,

Well y'all decided that finding and keeping zero-day exploits were more important than contacting the companies to fix them because you looked at both approaches and decided that intelligence gathering scale > cyber security robustness.

The only way this could have been better was if the tattoo was some beautifully kerned font above the ass that said "the kernel compiling, look busy".

Or how about you legislate for parental controls on Smartphones.

You know, like how any desktop or laptop has them?

How are you going to enforce this law? Because parents will still buy their kids smartphones. Are you going to have the police arresting under 16s and confiscating their phones?

The problem wasn't the game controller.

The problem was using a composite construction for the pressure vessel that wasn't pressure tested before diving.

ThePyroPython ,

I once heard a wise old man at the pub urinals say "you never buy beer, you only ever rent it" before he proceeded to piss all over his shoes.

ThePyroPython ,

What's the counter to that sentence then?

Every time I try to explain why this is a dumb sentence using the door lock analogy I always get rebuffed by it.

ThePyroPython ,

That's a good way to ensure your relatives have absolutely nothing to bury for your funeral.

On the plus side, you'll be able to do this biggest splits in your life.

As we all know Alphas can be stopped by just a sheet of paper: A restraining order.

    I'm currently learning to drive but I think, unfortunately, my first car will be ICE.

    1. I live in a rented flat, so no way I can install a charging point.
    2. The prices of the paid charging points near me mean that it's close to parity with petrol here (UK).
    3. The insurance on EVs is much higher than ICE at the moment, this is doubly important because as a new driver I'll be paying a lot for the next 2 to 3 years.

    I'll be looking into various different vehicles when I've passed my practical test so I'm not ruling EVs or PHEVs yet, but it's looking unlikely.

    Like, for example, breaking my ability to back out of this Engadget page on Connect for Lemmy's default web browser so I had to close the app and reopen it.

    I don't think it's a deal-breaker for the government employees running the hiring process. Trust me, I know some UK civil servants and after the initial drugs test, most of them were very happy to resume their various indulgences.

    The trouble is that you can't be seen to employ someone to work for the federal government when they are technically committing a federal felony.

    I reckon the vast majority from the lower level employees to the higher ups would LOVE to have weed, LSD, and other recreational drugs at least de-scheduled if not legalised, regulated, and taxed.

    It's politically difficult, especially in a country as socially right-wing as the US (on average, I'm aware attitudes vary from state to state).

    ThePyroPython ,

    I swear they do this on purpose so that their base thinks "He looks like me, therefore he must be right!".

    Please make a spiritual successor to Crimson Skies.

    The arcadey air combat, the alternative history air piracy setting, and the gloriously over-the-top voice acting and scripting.

    After spending many hours of my childhood playing that game it would make my soul sing to play something like that again.
