I find it hilarious that Apple is selling the new iphones with AI features that only works on the new devices because they apparently don't require the cloud, and instead run locally.

Apple's logic:- saving private photos on the cloud is good for privacy, while doing AI computation on the cloud is somehow bad for it ?

I see the point about AI's impact on internet content, but I think it's important to view it in a broader context. AI is just a tool, and its effectiveness is shaped by how users use it. It's not just AI, but the entire internet that's always had a mix of good and bad content. AI actually has the potential to improve access to information and level the field. It's more about refining search algorithms and enhancing oversight rather than dismissing the technology altogether. The internet has always required users and creators to sift through and elevate quality content. AI is just a new aspect of this

This could just be a side-project by some guy working in a tech company with a 'no inventions/IP clause' in his contract. People prefer to stay anonymous in such cases, and launch silently, as to not pull attention from their main org. Not everybody can be a twitter-tech bro announcing his creations on ProductHunt and not get in trouble for it.

I have a suspicion that it could be something that does voice recognition via the gyroscope data. I believe so for many reasons-

1. Gyroscope creates a lot of data for every millisecond, so it doesn't makes any sense to send all of it over to the server.

2. You only need to recognise certain keywords/movements of the user for somewhat accurate ad-tracking and behavourial analysis.

3. You don't need to prompt the user to allow access to it.

What trust ecosystem are you talking about ? It was a lack of foresight by google on their own discovery of transformers, and it would probably have been sitting in dust or been killed off by the time it would have taken them to reach GPT-2 level of progress.

How about I create the positive/negative diagnosis images with a human+stable diffusion, and use that for training my classifier?

So I incorporated 20:4 interminent fasting into my daily routine and it has been incredible for a lot of things lately. Things like:-

- No more evening slump.

- Much more alertness during what used to be my dinner time.

- A general feeling of lightness.

For those who might not know, it's basically I can eat whatever I want to between those 4 hours in a day, and can not for the other 20 hours.

Isn't everyone doing that though? With Apple stepping into the Ads business, it is almost clear that they will eventually wipe out any third party competition, especially facebook from their platform. Facebook has realised that it desperately needs a hardware channel to survive in the cut-throat competitive field the tech industry has become, and VR is that channel.
