The article was a good summary. It also bolstered my belief that most of us here now won't live to see fusion at scale. I very much suspect that at some point in the near future, simpler renewable power generation plus storage solutions (batteries, kinetic, hydrogen etc) may become so inexpensive that the high startup cost of fusion will seem uneconomic, and fusion will go back on the shelf til we get around to interplanetary travel.

>For Linux users seeking to move away from telemetry-riddled proprietary OSes, these moves won't win Canonical any friends

. . . so pretty much most Linux users?

Interesting choice to annoy the pickiest, tech-savviest people around who almost certainly left Windows in part due to advertisements and bloat. Yeah, this will make people upgrade...to a different distro.

>Imagine how much solar/wind/battery tech could have been built and improved with all those billions and the last 6 years.

Looking at the subsidies, I'd say less than what happened in our timeline.

This feels like an advertisement paid by Ubuntu itself lol

Social media would have been a much more powerful tool for him.

And originally monkeys can’t copyright. How can AI

People already forgotten that Cortana, Siri and Alexa are always listening and 3rd party contractors (those people who are paid very little and dont care if they are fired) have access to these audio prompts.

ChatGPT recording your text prompts is the last thing we need to worry about now.

Weird. I thought it was coming this year.

At this rate, the US government is going to finish Half-Life 3 before Valve does.

Just remember that once you sift through the pearl clutching these announcements are always accompanied by, the slippery slopes to Terminator never do appear.

Or: "Why utopia is still as distant as ever."

We are proud to say that our country has all the liberty and freedoms you want, all for the purpose of being spied on and having the accusatory finger pointed at you for whatever reason they deem necessary. This is security you can count on to put you away for good. Why, I feel safe already.

They can! Now with IT As A Service (r) lol

So we need to walk around armed with anti drone weapons now? Just another new normal.

….hack the world?

“Everything is always broken, why do we even pay you guys?”

“Everything is running fine, why do we even pay all you guys?”

“The building is fine, it will never catch on Fire, we don’t need a sprinkler system and we don’t need to pay taxes for a fire department”

“Why the fuck is no one coming to put out the fire??”

They found nothing worth stealing. 😂

Bet Hitler wishes he had those

It’s all projection with these people. Probably communist hippy retreats in Russia.

Well then the headline is biased because fox is obviously "fair and balanced"!!!!!1

>AOC Foot fan club. >

Small correction

So... what the ai does?

Because it learns what a concept looks like and that's how it will generate an image from pure static. It doesn't have images saved inside the model it has knowledge of what something looks like and how to make that from static. Essentially it knows how to draw a thing but doesn't have images of the thing saved in its data.

Aphantasia prevents the generation of mental images based on knowledge of what things look like, but it does not prevent that knowledge serving as the basis for an image made with pencil and paper. Keane can draw a picture of Ariel because he knows what humans (and fish) look like, and that information—plus the skills acquired through study and practice—steers his hand accordingly.

This is the best explanation i can think of for this.
