Do you use #eloquence with 64-bit #nvda? If so, release v7 is now available, fixing bugs with say all and skim reading. An attempt was also made to handle unicode paths, but I'm unsure if it worked completely. github.com/fastfinge/eloquence_64/releases/tag/v7

AI not good enough yet? I'm not surprised, although claude is getting better. https://www.techspot.com/news/111233-waymo-admits-autopilot-often-guys-philippines.html
Waymo admits that its autopilot is often just guys from the Philippines
Waymo's chief safety officer, Mauricio Peña, recently noted that when the company's robotaxis encounter unusual situations, they may switch control to the remote drivers. While some of the contractors work in the US, many operate from other countries, such as the Philippines.

Really disappointed to find that https://openvibe.social/#openvibe a free way to cross post to Mastodon, threads, tumblr, etc isn't accessible at all to post if you are blind and use a screen reader. I've only used it on iOS , but I'm not sure how it acts on Android.

Maybe I'm jaded, but I don't understand total AI deniers. Next they're going to asume I don't care about people if I use AI. I hope they put that on technology. NO using technology, because someone could choose to do something hurtful with it.
