Imagine if they just subsidized newspapers and magazines the way they’re subsidizing this slop
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

RIP Tchéky Karyo, a prolific French actor (From the Earth to the Moon, La Femme Nikita, Crying Freeman, Bad Boys, GoldenEye, The Patriot...) who went into space with the best (and only) Wing Commander movie.
It was always nice to see him. I will miss him. He was 72.

Informative thread.
📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms).
It’s also concerning. 1/

PSA: we're aware that Signal is down for some people. This appears to be related to a major AWS outage. Stand by.

UPDATE: Trump is set to demolish the entire East Wing of the White House, after of course promising the White House wouldn't be touched.
Here's the thing—he could demolish the ENTIRE White House, and I absolutely could see him doing so—and MAGA Republicans will cheer him on because It Is A Cult.

We're hosting this important discussion in partnership with the Internet Society Trinidad and Tobago Chapter, IEEE Young Professionals TT, and the CTU Caribbean ICT Youth Network. What is Encryption? Encryption is a tool or process that makes messages unreadble to others. Encryption transforms your data in code so that only the intended recipient can read it.
