I remember when I had to set my VCR to record a program I wanted to watch; if YouTube gets that bad, I’ll just do the same thing; pre-record the video stream and skip the commercials.

The difference is that my ad blocker is quick and painless to set up, where TiVo involved some capital and planning.

If recommendations are being provided to me as a service and the algorithm that goes into it is relatively transparent, I have no issues.

If advertising is based on the value an advertiser sees in the product being advertised, I have no problem.

If I’m the product being sold or an ad distribution network is involved, I’ve got a problem.

Perplexing.

Once upon a time print shops would only accept files in Quark Xpress format. Eventually, they came to accept InDesign documents too. They have licenses for the software and workflows and toolchains set up to integrate those files into their existing prepress and press systems.

LaTeX is purely for academic markup for postscript printing. VivaDesigner and its kind? Only niche and hobby layout and print.

That said, I only share in PDF now, so I use other software for the layout phases and don’t care that it isn’t portable to other shops.

It’s in the article; newer gen chips will have extra DRM that will prevent the hacks from working.

Oh, you meant when will the anti-hacks stop?

Bless your heart….

Wouldn’t their patch embeddings return different results depending on the visual boundaries? They don’t appear to use overlap redundancy; this means it’s going to be significantly less resource intensive, but the chance of losing significant signals in the image to text translation surely must be inversely high?

Dual PIN is a great idea; I’d also love an emergency PIN that invalidates the token silently (so you can enter it under duress).

Makes sense, as actual AI research is based in applied mathematics and data/signal modelling. And the Chinese education system has trained students in those areas ruthlessly over the past 40 years.

So combine large population base with education system focused on the core competencies required for AI studies, and you’re going to get a majority of the talent coming from that system.

All this really does is show how flawed the current concept of copyright is. But at some point, a huge corpus of images owned by other people was assembled to create a derivative work (the training corpus).

I spent multiple years learning a skillset which put me into an employment position. Of those jobs I had as an employee 20 years ago, almost all of them were mostly done by machine learning systems a decade later. But that was OK, because I kept on learning and moving ahead of the trend, leaving the learned,boring stuff to automation while I learned new things to give my company a competitive advantage.

I don’t think I could ever work a career where the job I was hired for was my employment until I left.

Why only 4K? We have 8K monitors now.

Anything faster would be a safety issue.

How else are they going to win the rail pod challenge?

A train is a collection of rolling railcars propelled by one or more locomotives. These are individual self-powered railcars.

So no, there’s no train here. Just monorail pods that will get congested as density increases.

The whole concept of a train is that all the cars move together and the only congestion is at the switching yards, where it can be optimized.

This isn’t helped by most websites reinventing themselves every couple of years so the old links 404 even though the content still exists.

In which case… they’re both screwed.

They’ll likely have a better chance of pulling it off than America’s push to “delete China”.

One day soon, AI will be cheap enough and good enough that people will produce YouTube videos and AI will summarize the videos into well written, succinct articles with appropriate images and cited sources.

Yes they do… including not holding a charge when the differential drops too far.

The real wins are in battery-backed capacitors. Charge the caps fast, then let them keep the batteries topped up.
