A country as densely populated as India with a lot of its citizenry well-educated in IT, could create their own internet in defiance of the government. I'd love to be able to do this here in the United States but it's infeasible and I haven't gotten any interest.

Huh! I noticed a big reduction of spam phone calls as of late myself but I don't think it is necessarily this. The accent on the scam phone calls I received was clearly Southeast Asian in origin/

What do you know, this shut down coincides with an uncharacteristic cessation of spam phone calls from my area code.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 84%. (I'm a bot)

> What readers - and indeed the peer reviewers who cleared it for publication - did not know was that the paper itself had been written by the controversial AI chatbot ChatGPT. "We wanted to show that ChatGPT is writing at a very high level," said Prof Debby Cotton, director of academic practice at Plymouth Marjon University, who pretended to be the paper's lead author.

> He said academics could still look for clues that a student had used ChatGPT. Perhaps the biggest of these is that it does not properly understand academic referencing - a vital part of written university work - and often uses "Suspect" references, or makes them up completely.

> Bristol University is one of a number of academic institutions to have issued new guidance for staff on how to detect that a student has used ChatGPT to cheat.

That kind of move is really going to motivate the populace to get involved

In Egypt it's illegal and possibly deadly to use starlink. Eg: The government will come in and take it arrest and/or kill you. Is that the same in India, can't they just get starlink up and running?

I didn't know this, even back in 2021 India was already leading with the number of internet shutdowns.

Excerpt from the linked content^1 by Gerry Shih, Karishma Mehrotra, and Shams Irfan:

>Indian authorities severed mobile internet access and text messaging for a second day Sunday across Punjab, a state of about 27 million people, as officials sought to capture a Sikh separatist and braced for potential unrest.

>The statewide ban — which crippled most smartphone services except for voice calls and some SMS text messages — marked one of the broadest shutdowns in recent years in India, a country that has increasingly deployed the law enforcement tactic, which digital rights activists call draconian and ineffective.

>Three Punjab residents who spoke to The Washington Post said life had been disrupted since midday Saturday.

>“My entire business is dependent on internet,” said Mohammad Ibrahim, who accepts QR code-based payments at his two clothing shops in a village outside of Ludhiana and also sells garments online. “Since yesterday, I’ve felt crippled.”

>In each of the past five years, Indian officials have ordered internet shutdowns more frequently than any other government, according to the New York-based advocacy group Access Now, which issues annual reports on the practice.

>Authorities in Punjab deployed a tactic that is usually seen in another restive Indian region: Jammu and Kashmir. The majority-Muslim region in India’s far north has experienced internet disruptions more than 400 times in the past decade, according to the Software Freedom Law Center (SFLC), a New Delhi-based nonprofit.

Actually it makes me think laptops should have an option to vent heat out of the top if you want to warm your hands. You'd need to redirect it if someone wants to run it with the lid closed, and some type of water catch in case of spills.

I just tried to install one and the laptop never picked it up.

Seems like laptops are the now most used with their keyboards and pointing devices. Might just be the field I work in though.

What exactly are you typing with then?

Eidt: then insted of them.

But i guess either works.

I honestly thought Korea, or at least Samsung, was doing their own manufacturing for some reason. TIL

The big brands often sell a lower quality mechanism to 3rd parties, who then make their own cases. So counterfeits buy them, make a fake case and sell them as high end watches.

So youre saying you think theres a man that live in the black box that just answers everything while pretending to be an AI?

If the work is attributed to the AI it's not plagiarism. If someone tries to say they write it when an AI did, that's plagiarism. Plagiarism is when you try to pass off work you didn't write as your own writing.

What stops someone from training an AI on their own past essays or feeding it messages to personalize an essay to sound like it was written by yourself?

Somewhat of a fine line right, it's doing the same thing you would be doing to write a paper, taking other people's information and explaining it in your own way, just the AI's way not yours. I agree schools need to figure out how to embrace it and teach kids to use it to understand concepts to explain themselves rather than let the AI replace their own original thoughts.
