First question: What the hell is this?

Second question: What the hell is wrong with you people?

I will be the first to lean into the fact that over the next 5 years, workflow in every company will change dramatically. It’s going to be like the shift from no one having email, to everyone doing business by email.

But you know what’s a bad idea? Rawdogging that change in real time, on spec, with your human workflow staff out in the street, and your staff are politically-appointed children, all while things like critical infrastructure, healthcare, nukes, air traffic, and the military are your “in production” assets that might go down. All to try and be the guy that shoves his AI in the gap.

All governments moved to email slowly because, among other reasons, email is inherently insecure. Email use by governments, records laws, and encryption standards progressed together. None of those types of knock-ons are considered here.

No idea. I think there’s a lot of machine learning - enabled mapping up front.

What a weird way to write “Crypto scam launders bribes while fleecing of fans to a total of $350 million.”

I really hope this means another attempt to use the magnetosphere itself. MAGNAV might actually be possible at this point.

Edit: better article. AI advancements make MAGNAV a real possibility now. https://www.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/3408951/magnav-project-successfully-demonstrates-real-time-magnetic-navigation/

My phone uses the Graft Positioning System to tell me where I can go and who I can talk to.

100% on board.

Doesn’t seem to. I turned off all the LW resist options, plus all my extensions, and still ended up in an infinite loop. But same extensions in FF doesn’t seem to have an effect.

I’ve worked and lived in a lot of developing countries. I can’t shout into the void any more then I already do, that I’ve seen this a dozen times.

Colleagues of mine that lived under corrupt kleptocracies with things like massive state surveillance of average people for simply being in the wrong political party tell me how great it is that the US has finally caught up with them.

The commonality is that we have already, in 6 weeks, hit a point of it taking a generation to undo what’s been done.

The people who aren’t freaked out are either normal people that don’t have a sense of what’s coming and can’t comprehend life outside the status quo, and those that think they’ll directly benefit from it all.

LibreWolf is next, and it’s not exactly niche. I’m seeing it more and more, and LW defaults, even dropping resist settings, gets bounced by CloudFlare every time.

The ego inflation would go like this:

“Sir, we want to put you on a new $500 bill. The EU has a €500 bill as well, so economic studies show viabil-”

“They already have a 500? No, I want a $1,000 bill, then. Put Elon on the $500.”

“Sir, yes sir, thank you sir.” boot slurping noises

“ChatGPT, I need your help. Please pretend to be a lawyer that recently suffered a severe concussion and write me something I can post online that will male this situation slightly weirder.”

It wasnt even made explicitly clear until they started quoting Notepad++ Don Ho after 2007, when the real Don Ho passed away.

People can have hobbies that become their full time job, right?

I mean, if you optimize it effectively up front, an index of hotels with AI agents doing customer service should be available, with an Agent-only channel, allowing what amounts to a text chat between the two agents. There’s no sense in doing this over the low-fi medium of sound when 50 exchanged packets will do the job. Especially if the agents are both of the same LLM.

AI Agents need their own Discord, and standards.

Start with hotels and travel industry and you’re reinventing the Global Distribution System travel agents use, but without the humans.

Yep, 100%. That digital coupon is you getting paid $0.33 for the data they collected from you.

Some of this is also about less complicated ways to use patents that can also be applied to things like prosthetic limbs.

Also, it provides a control case with how well-studied human anatomy is. In terms of basic mechanical motion, there’s a clear baseline goal.

I remember seeing early versions of the synthetic muscle fibers years ago, but as far as ways to practically apply them and test, and refine them as control technology improves with machine learning. 10-15 years ago, this wasn’t really possible.

When can I get OpenAI’s Operator to mail my enemies a box of horse manure?

That’s what he means, right?

The problem is it’s all or nothing. You must foil IP address, fingerprint, and cookies - all three at once.

Mullvad browser might make your fingerprint look similar to other users, but it’s not common is the problem. Test it with the EFF Cover your tracks site.

This is what I’ve been saying for months in the reddit privacy sub and to people IRL. Some people seem perfectly happy to just block ads so they don’t see the tracking. Literal ignorance is bliss. Most simply don’t have time or wherewithal to do the minimal work it takes to enjoy relative “privacy” online.

FWIW, any VPN where you can switch locations should do the job since the exit node IPs ought to get re-used. My practice is to give BigG a vanilla treat because my spouse hasn’t DeGoogled, and leave anything attached to our real names with location A. Then a whole second non-IRL-name set of accounts usually with location B with NoScript and Chameleon. Then anything else locations C, D, E, etc.

Ugh… This all sucks.

Ooooh, no they won’t stop this. It’s the workaround for tracking with all the things you just mentioned.

You have to either mask the fingerprint like how Brave does, or spoof the headers and block JS to make the fingerprint useless.
