Thank you for the detailed reply 👍🏻

This was really enlightening. Do you have some articles that elaborate? ☺️

Wow! I’m going to add some of these to my RSS feed. Didn’t know that was possible. Thank you

This is so exciting - there is a big potential here, if we are careful and cautious.

I think the computer scientist they interview in the article hits the nail on the head with his statement:

these models “should always be regarded as assistants rather than the final decision makers

AI technologies as an extension of human ability is going to revolutionise a lot of professional fields. But, we need to approach the technology the right way! We need to start early, and have digital literacy as a focus area in schools.

I can’t figure out, why you would ever accept such an low offer. $100 for something worth potentially more sounds ridiculous. How much did he need the money? 😅

Am I missing something?

Why? I am not condoning the 90% decision - but, why not start figuring out ways to implement and improve whatever you are working with? There are alt to figure out about AI and what to use it for - ant not to use it for. But total abstinence it’s like choosing not to use the internet to search for knowledge that could be useful for your business or work.

We should be learning - not ignoring.

Thank you for the update and elaboration.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise to me anymore, but alas; the ruthlessness and morraly bankrupt practices that governs some American companies is surprising…

I appreciate living in the EU and the fight taking place here for my data rights. Although deep down I’m aware that similar practices surely are happening here, they just haven’t been uncovered yet.

Edit: As mentioned in a comment above, it appears to be an error. However, the morally issue remains. I don’t understand how one can handle sensitive information so carelessly.

Local officials have said that delivery workers receive approximately $11 hourly after tips, given their out-of-pocket expenses – which is $4 less than New York City’s minimum wage of $15

That wage is insulting, both to the workers and the city. Kick the business’ out of town - someone other will fill the vacuum and do it better.

Wonder how long before it turns up on the graveyard 🪦

Tried to read this post twice- what are you telling me to be aware of / stop doing?

Great read! Thank you for sharing. It’s incredible that they trained two parrots to recall some of the 40 words almost 200 years later. 🧠💥

Is that really a journalist… or a commentator? Not a very objective analysis of the situation.

I don’t understand why they are going to keep the service running through October? If you are leaving, why not get it over with - could someone enlighten me?

Good idea! I just posted there 👍🏻

I was hoping for something else when I saw the title.

But, now that I am here:

I will soon start a new job, where the number of emails will be much larger than it is now. Any recommendations for sorting these ‘like a boss’?

I am using Mac mail, but can change to outlook if there are some good reasons - and stuff Mac mail can’t do (mail wise).

I’m not entirely sure if that’s the case.

Nevertheless, it would be great if people had better tools to assess whether the “trades” they make with tech giants are as innocent as they think. This requires, for example, a better understanding of the data they are giving away. I think the list of permissions shown on the app store for the legitimate app can be quite abstract for many people. Makes it too too easy to overlook the potential consequences and quickly click download - or accept, like many do with cookies.

It surprises me how poor people’s technology literacy is, when they see an app with a completely skewed logo and think, “It’s probably the real deal.”

There really needs to be some form of education in this area…
