This is something that I noticed after doing a Google search on a new machine without uBlock Origin installed. I was unable to identify that the first link was an advertisement to a competitor's product of the brand I looked up. I remember adverts used to be highlighted really well in Google searches earlier.

If I am unable to differentiate between an ad and a search result then neither can a lot of non technical users including my parents.

Can't wait to see ChatGPT ads

I didn't find it to be AI-generated.

I used to get overjoyed and would tell my partner how amazing programmer I am every time I built something that felt difficult at the beginning.

Now for every problem I know Claude/Codex will do it, and they do. I just don't get that feeling on finishing 10 features now.

I think the issue is the lack of consent. Whether a service I use is protecting my website from scrapers or feeding everything to scrapers, some of us would prefer that it takes our informed consent before doing so.

If AGI can do everything and a few own the AGI, then they have that power.

Even now the machine owners have enough power to change laws to their liking, bending governments and public opinion to their will.

I feel the interests would rise to accommodate for all the bankruptcies that inevitably happen exactly 7 years after

Unregulated nuclear energy is only going to show us how unsafe it is.

Interesting. Thank you

Unrelated: what's the point of "*equal contribution"? Why would someone specify this

I don't understand why you are being downvoted while Elon has made it clear multiple times that that's what they are working on.

Mind sharing details of your setup?

What does it contain?

Because a human fails in a known way. If a human does not have expertise in domain X or tech Y, they will fail there and the expectation is that they will fail.

With an LLM you never know where it can fail. There is no domain expertise for an LLM. It can fail in a miserable way in the same domain it worked spectacularly for.

masterful piece of financial engineering

Love how we assign positive adjectives to unethical practices by corporates

I don't understand this logic. Does whole market mean scamming companies too?

If a one wants IP and rule of law (incl contracts) to be respected, one should not violate others rights when it is convenient.

Yes that's what should be said to OpenAI. Now they should not cry about their T&Cs not being respected when they never cared about others' copyrights.

I think a lot of us would be fine for AA to be a for-profit enterprise earning money from donations and deals with companies. The service it provides is invaluable - free and DRM-free access to millions of titles in the world.

I have only worked in startups and I have been an early engineer in both of them. I would always get high privileges within a short time where I would have the access to create and delete resources. I don't think it's that uncommon.

I too have felt the same around me. There is this lack of faith in the institutions now, feeling of distrust. Someone on HN called this the era of shamelessness and I kind of agree to it. The top has gotten shameless and the people at the bottom are trying to scrabble whatever they can to become one of them so that they can escape this hellhole that has been created.

There's also a tool to automatically push it to multiple repos: https://github.com/prashantsengar/GitEcho

Though to be fair, what the parent meant by federated forges is different than this approach.

Curious to know what kind of problems you are talking about here

I saw something like this for a book. It was under an Instagram reel where the person was describing ways to improve your self-esteem. In the comments section someone mentioned a book that worked for them and it had a few replies saying how it worked for them too. I searched for the book and it was a very new book from an unknown author and zero reviews everywhere.

Exact same story at my place. Upper management decided it's a good idea to build on Azure because Microsoft promised some benefits. Things that ran reliable on GCP now need active firefighting on Azure

I see this being said often but I don't understand.

A lot of people posting there are young and may well be in their first relationship. It makes sense for them to ask a question in the community they spend their most time in - which is reddit

What is your Workflow?

All the banking and payment apps in India refuse to open if you have developer mode on

It's really interesting how the same propaganda is applied by fascist governments everywhere. The ones supporting the "nationalist" government are the patriots and the others are enemies

Don't the Americans have the second amendment to save themselves from their government?
