- Comment on Instagram is training AI on your data. It’s nearly impossible to opt out 4 months ago:
Forgive me for the pessimism, but I sincerely doubt that they honour any opt-outs. Meta has shown time and time again that they’d rather just pay fines as business expenses instead of abiding by law(s).
- Comment on Car makers BMW, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) and Volkswagen (VW) used parts made by supplier with links to Chinese forced labour, U.S. probe says 5 months ago:
This. Numerous industries in the US make use of forced prison labour.
- Comment on Minister suggests Canada is considering tariffs on Chinese EVs following U.S. move 5 months ago:
Goddamn, I wish we could act like our own independent country for once instead of just puppeting whatever the US does.
- Comment on Google Search adds a “web” filter, because it is no longer focused on web results 5 months ago:
Appeasing shareholders and investors.
- Comment on GamesIndustry.biz: Microsoft's mystifying mismanagement 5 months ago:
Microsoft has so many spinning plates up in the air right now and they have no idea how to handle them all. Eventually they’re all going to come crashing down and smash on the floor and it’s not going to be pretty.
- Comment on Microsoft closes Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin and others 5 months ago:
Most of the beloved Arkane team had left long before the closure.
- Comment on Bethesda Celebrates 30th Anniversary of The Elder Scrolls, Provides Small Development Update on The Elder Scrolls VI 7 months ago:
I do not have hope that this developer will make another good game let alone one that respects the TES IP or in any way lives up to expectations.
- Comment on VW vehicles to converse with drivers via ChatGPT by mid-year 9 months ago:
I don’t know if this is hilarious or pathetically sad. AI has become the current “must have” craze in the tech world and it’s baffling watching every company try and find a way to shoehorn some form of it into their products and then try and justify its existence.
Cerence Chat Pro from technology partner Cerence Inc. is the foundation of the new function, which offers a uniquely intelligent, *automotive-grade *ChatGPT integration.
Why the hell would I want this?
- Comment on This app lets restaurants and coffee shops charge to use the bathroom 9 months ago:
Cool. I’ll just piss along the exterior wall of your building then or on the fence at the back of your parking lot.
