I think this is what's happening.
If Google loses appeals, Mozilla (and many other browsers that rely heavily on getting their revenue from Google), will have to find new ways to generate revenue. Unfortunately, they seem to be looking for the easiest way out, and that's selling out their users.
Wether we like it or not AI is here to stay, and in 20-30 years, it’ll be as embedded in our lives as computers and smartphones are now.
It's election season, so get used to this. Other countries have learned how to divide us using social media, not to mention the years of experience Fox New and Co. have in doing just that. On top of it, we now have AI generated posts to contend with. It's not getting better anytime soon...personally, I just ignore any post that sounds like it's inflammatory (which sadly are almost all political posts, and everything Musk).
I honestly can’t understand why anyone would be OK with it. I think our society has been getting trained to just accept whatever they throw at us. “Buying” something no longer means fully owning it, and I’m not OK with that, I just have to live with it.
I disagree - definitely not OK by me, though likely legal. People bought this because they wanted and paid extra for an internet connected device, and a regular thermostat is not that. I mean, would you be OK if your TV manufacturer disabled the screen and streamed radio stations instead?
You know what's funny. Every time I see this type of nonsensical comment, it reminds me why I have to vote for Biden, even if I have other issues with him. I have skipped elections in the past, and was considering doing so again, but comments like yours make it absolutely clear that the alternative is just insane.
I truly am confused about what point you’re trying to make. That we should live by the social structures from a thousand years ago? Or is it that you believe we’ve perfected the social structure and it needs no further change as of today? Or something else?
At least reverse the doors so that it's easier to put keys in the locks.
Ask yourself some questions about the situation, and give yourself honest answers.
These are sample questions. Ask yourself about specific concerns that worry you. Sometimes, the responses will require follow-up questions. Point is to end pointless worrying and start looking at the problem logically and realistically, without the emotion clouding your thinking.
I don’t buy that Disney is in trouble at all.
Streaming prices are going up, ads are now a thing unless you pay more, password sharing is on the way out, and soon showing movies in theaters first will taker over, and finally, they’ll begin bundling services you don’t want with the ones you do, and have a minimum subscription term so you can’t just cancel and switch to a different service on a whim. That’s, pretty much their old business model, just cutting out the cable companies.
In the meantime, they’re playing hardball with actors and writers, in hopes of locking them in a long term contract with less money “because streaming isn’t making money”, before much of the above takes hold.
lol, and I hope I’m lol’ing to an actual person.
Checks to see if Baidu is doing AI…yes, they are. How shocking.
