I was going to point to this too. I haven’t seen a direct metric, but the data is there if someone wants to pull it out.
Heck, with video cameras going they could even generate an “engagement score” based on how much time a participant’s eyes are on the screen versus elsewhere. They don’t so far as I know, but again the data is there if they wanted to.
Someday there might be brains there, so I agree!
Idea generation.
E.g., I asked an LLM client for interactive lessons for teaching 4th graders about aerodynamics, esp related to how birds fly. It came back with 98% amazing suggestions that I had to modify only slightly.
A work colleague asked an LLM client for wedding vow ideas to break through writer’s block. The vows they ended up using were 100% theirs, but the AI spit out something on paper to get them started.
Soundproofing in the wall shared with next door unit. Like, really good soundproofing. I can’t recall hearing anything from them ever.
Bad landlord move: IDK WTF they were thinking with the shower. There are SO MANY little nooks and crannies that are narrower than a pencil. I spray so much crap in there trying to prevent mold. I hate it. Landlord is lucky I’m a diligent tenant, most would let his bathroom rot, it takes so much work to keep it clean. When I build a house the shower will be SO SMOOTH and I’m going to lay it out so I can just plug in a power washer and spray it down.
Pants wouldn’t last too long. I have enough free t-shirts I could Donald Duck it for at least a century.
That is a fascinating rumor, but not at all true. Good on you for being skeptical. Otherwise, I personally know all FDA employees plus a mysterious eleventh.
As bad as Trump is, being not-Trump does not equal good. Politics in the US is not a bad/good, Trump/not-Trump binary. Even if the two political parties in power would like the masses to believe it.
HP printers and their ink cartridges. They managed to make an even more horrifying offering with their subscription model based on pages printed per month.
Remember me? No one after a full generation turns over. My name is on reports and records and patents that will last until the collapse of the US and probably longer, so my name will be found occasionally. But no reason to remember it specifically from among the other 8.2 billion people alive at the same time.
As for how much data will be collected and saved. I wouldn’t count on anything lasting for long that doesn’t have a specific retention policy.
How very post 2001 / Windows XP SP2 of you.
Someone DM’d me my home address on a pseudonymous account I thought had no ties to my IRL identity.
If an author used AI as a tool and ended up with a good book, I have no issues with that. There is more to writing a book than spitting out one draft.
I don’t believe LLM AI in its current state is capable of writing a good book without heavy guidance and editing by a human, not to mention the world building, research, and story boarding that isn’t a part of putting final word on paper, so I’m not worried about it.
Book review sites have already been manipulated for years (Goodreads, owned by Amazon) so I moved elsewhere (Storygraph, Bookwyrm) before generative AI became a concern.
At best: they need to experience more of the world. At worst: they’re racist.

Feels like Fight Club to me where there is a subset of young men who like it, not recognizing it’s a parody. Then there’s people who get it and like it as a comedy. And the obviousness of which is which is not always clear, so you will never see me talking about whether I like it or not because it invites the first type.
Aren’t there already some automated mod tools working to delete CSAM and shit? That’s a form of AI.
But all moderation problems you identify (work, biases) would not fully go away with AI moderation. Someone has to build and manage those tools (work) and train them on how to moderate (incorporating their biases as they do so).
But… Why? Why would some Disney muckety muck buy a ton of live lemmings and shove them off a cliff, and put it in a movie?

Some people need accommodations at work. Like a nursing parent needs space for pumping and a fridge to keep the milk. Accessible bathrooms for people with mobility issues. I work near someone who has an umbrella looking thing over her workstation because the fluorescent lights give her migraines. Some need time flexibility to address medical issues, or perhaps the medical issues of child or aging parent.
All these would require having some sort of conversation with your employer. During a job interview is not the time to do it. You need to check with your country and local laws to know your employee rights. You want to ask for accommodations in such a way that doesn’t put you at risk of getting fired or never hired to begin with.
Ditto. I would be more surprised if there was somehow conclusive evidence the FBI had nothing to do with MLKs murder.
