Hallucination exists but is massively exaggerated in popular discourse about AI. The worst examples of all time are paraded and amplified, meanwhile people use these tools successfully every day. I’ve spot checked results and not ever really gone wrong. I do prefer the tools that provide links to their sources though.
Mm. Siri doesn’t do information lookups in the sense that I mean. It resorts to “here’s something I found on the web” very very quickly, and that’s not very helpful.
If you hit every goal you set, you aren’t attempting enough.
A while ago I set up a Siri shortcut that opens ChatGPT in voice mode. Now I can just say “hey siri, ask the demon” and in a moment start talking to ChatGPT with no further commands and zero buttons pressed throughout. It answers in voice mode.
This is pretty useful for things like doing units conversions while my hands are sticky during cooking, or just doing simple information lookups while my hands are busy. I use ChatGPT responsibly, never trusting it for things that aren’t one-dimensional information retrievals and summarization. It works great for me for like 50-60% of the things I used to Google. Internet search is, once again, just for finding websites, like it should be.
What’s my point? We don’t need Siri Apple Intelligence to ship. There’s already something better. And it runs on my iPhone 14, which isn’t even compatible with Apple Flatulence.
Yes. He took too much inspiration from Stanford University’s “Stanley” winning the DARPA Grand Challenge in 2005. This was an early completion to build viable autonomous vehicles. Most of them looked like tanks covered in radar dishes but Stanford wound up taking home the gold with just an SUV with cameras on it.
It was an impressive achievement in computer vision, and the LiDAR-encrusted vehicles wound up looking like over-complex dinosaurs. There’s a great documentary about it narrated by John Lithgow (who, throughout it, pronounces the word robot as “ro-butt”). Elon watched it, made up his mind, and like a moron, hasn’t changed it in 20 years. I’m almost Musk’s age so I know how the years speed up as we go on. He probably thinks about the Stanford win as something that happened relatively recently. Especially with his mind on - ahem - other things, he’s not keeping up with recent developments out in the real world.
Rober just made Musk look like the absolute tool he is. And I’m a little worried that we may see people out there staging real world versions of this somehow with actual dangerous obstacles, not a cartoonish foam wall.
Frankly the news media have been suspect from the very beginning. There’s never been a time when they were not biased or sensationalist. All we can do is read them critically, and not rely overly much on any single source.

After reading this article, I have to say that the headline/image are pretty misleading. He was talking about Kursk, the region of Russia that Ukraine invaded: he said it’s back under Russian control and the Ukraine forces there are surrounded. Then he said they have two options: surrender or die.
I’m not defending Putin here. Just that he’s evil enough without actually taking things out of context to twist what actually happened into some clickbait headline.

Elon is getting slapped by the invisible hand.
You can blow that exact point up pretty large. The MAGA verse is a parasite on the rest of the US. I would love to see them try to stand on their own as an independent nation. It would be Texas + a bunch of little shithole countries gathered around its skirts. They wouldn’t have the economic wherewithal to GDP their way out of a wet paper bag.

Whoa
Trump is absolutely giddy that Putin used his name. JV Dunce is going to give him atm tonight to celebrate.
Nah it’s physics. Which is just math anyway.
Remove math and we have a peace deal.
Are you going to make an argument of any substance or just keep on with these “you people” attempts to sound superior? If you have something to say, fucking say it instead of just spraying insults at the room.
Yeah but when has a grand empire ever actually bankrupted itself fighting some small, tenacious enemy? /s
Throw him out the window of a crashing plane in poisoned underwear.
Trump was supposed to end this war in a day. Has it been a day yet?
The average person doesn’t know what a median is.
