Everyone should slow down AI development except for me

I’m going to be honest this sounds like it’s making fun of all the AI bros insisting we need to “pause” to consider the dangers of “superintelligent” AI while ignoring the actual problems.

If you consider scraping a threat then yes plain HTML might as well be giving up. The advantage of new reddit for that is quite clear: they can collect a bunch of data about your browser before deciding if you are a bot and if the rest of the page should load. The embedded recaptcha call in the screenshots is a pretty good hint. I suspect blocking trackers on new reddit will break as soon as the scrapers move over. As for why they don’t just kill old reddit: a significant chunk of their active posters use it and are attached to it. So if they kill it entirely they will lose content. Posters are of course logged in so this change is less likely to affect them.

There appear to be some bugs here. It keeps hiding window controls which is a problem because half the correct buttons didn’t work without a page referesh for me.

Why start grammar checking him now? He’s never been able to speak. That was his last three brain cells firing wildly into a sea of soup. Kinda wish this was back when medical reasearchers robbed graves for cadavars cause I doubt his brain will be volentarily donated to science.

The lemmy equivalent is that the instance is deleted

One of the first things Trump did his first term was gut the USDA's rural investment arm. Why? Because if his supporters were made poorer and more frustrated they would blame it on someone else and be more likely to turn out to vote. It worked. Probably doesn't help Fox didn't report on it.

Ehh. I'm not seeing evidence that was in any way pointed at people. In the aftermath of the Ukrainian strikes on Russia's strategic bombers it became quite apparent that leaving your air force out unprotected in your own country is a shortcut to losing a lot of it at once. The US Air Force has the same problem the Russian VKS had: lots of expensive planes out in the open scattered over a massive country that anyone can get drones or explosives into. This was near an airbase. While the drone identification bit needs work I don't find the presence unreasonable

I could swear I saw some company doing this in a tech publication like 5-10 years ago

But RFK Jr. swears by his "ferments!"

The problem is in the mean time the fired employees are stuck jobless in a world that runs on money

A BSD. There are multiple

Oh Omarchy is “agentic” now? Is there a change they can point to that made it so? Also the phrase “agentic Linux for the age of agents” makes my brain bleed.

Techbros: AI will become sentient and kill us all unless its done my way. Reality: Skip the sentience part were already at the death bit.
