And I am actively avoiding everything from Take-Two as a result. I won’t pay real money for slop.

Copilot when enmeshed in a full M365 enterprise environment is useful. Some higher up asked me for an update on everyone’s progress on their tasks (no one updates the DevOps board). I open the meeting event and then ask copilot for an update. Since the meeting was recorded and transcribed, it gave me an accurate summary which I copy pasted to the higher up.

Why couldnt the higher up just ask copilot themselves? Corporate organization!!! This and similar are good use cases for copilot.

As a standalone LLM, it’s kind of fun but it’s garbage. Just like ChatGPT. Not reliable, quotes sources but half the time it says the opposite of what the source actually states, completely useless for any task that requires precision or analysis.

It convinces the higher ups that it’s good though. And this is because higher ups are mostly completely technology-illiterate. Most people are tech illiterate too.

I installed in on my pixel 3a. It was neat when I tried Ubuntu touch in 2012 and it felt like a throwback to back then when I first booted it recently.

I remember living in an era where the market decided what was successful and what wasn’t. Good times?

Fun aside but I went into one of these heavily moderated adult communities on Meta and I was using a headset that was enterprise controlled so it had no personal meta account attached which meant I didn’t have an avatar.

When I showed up I appeared as a featureless grey avatar. I made a lot of friends until the moderator with a heavy southern US accent called me a hacker (because I was grey and featureless) and started genuinely freaking out and yelling.

A whole crowd gathered around me and some people were saying that I was a government agent (lol) and another suggested I was Russian. Anyways, they banned me for 7 days which sucked.

I went through a VR witch hunt because I was GREY.

The overwhelming majority of vr world users are children ages 7-14. There are almost no adults. The adults that are there are trying to interact with kids in an environment where there is zero supervision.

Meta Horizon Worlds is a giant unlicensed and unmoderated daycare.

Was America built on pedophelia this whole time? Is this why they “fled Europe” to colonize the new world???

So apparently AI generated CSAM is political? Interesting.

It doesn’t matter. It’s a lie. Ideal conditions and driving the bike at 19km/h achieves that. How many people are going to be driving a top speed of 19km/h on a bike? Their stats are physically impossible given the hardware they’re stating and are relying on people with little knowledge of real world range on electric motorcycles or charge density of solid state vs lion

Yes so even gaming this by driving very slowly, the range isn’t even close

I think it’s irresponsible of the Verge to tout an electric motorcycle’s range as “up to 600km”. It’s absolute fantasy.

I have an electric dirtbike and a gas bike. My gas bike has an 11.1 L tank and can go about 360km per tank.

The highest actual range I’ve seen on an electric motorcycle is about 100km of mixed use (highway and city).

Solid state batteries have the potential capability of having almost double the power density as lithium ion. So approx 200-300km (maybe).

Pretty solid but doubling THAT is just dishonest and in no way going to happen. You’re claiming to have more power density than internal combustion. That’s just straight up dishonest.

Well as you’ve explained at length, there’s nothing that can be done and you (and those who think like you) are consumed with fear. To you, there is no hope so why bother. I don’t have anything else to say to say on this so have a good day.

Ah so it’s everyone else’s fault that Americans are gutless? That makes a lot of sense to me that you would think that. Countries enacted counter tariffs, which is standing up to tariffs.

The world needs to get its shit together and stop this train.

No. Americans need to get their shit together and stop this train. Fix your own fucking problems.

Wow thank you for this comment. It helps detail your level of knowledge on this subject, which is very helpful to myself and others. There is nothing else to discuss here on my end.

The fact that you’re comparing human artists to slop machines is really sad. There is no “silicone brain” making any of this stuff. I think you should take a few minutes and learn how this stuff works before making these comparisons.

Nature is healing.

Their state religion is narcissism.

Nothing is a big deal to Americans. They’re perfectly content with this and the online performative outrage is exhausting to everyone else in the world. They should just own their shit instead of pretending that they are appalled or whatever it is.
