Out of curiosity what were the old and new GPUs?

That’s a particularly lengthy effort, even for Windows, so I’m wondering if you switched from nvidia to AMD or something major like that. Only thing I would have done differently is uninstall the old graphics driver before switching the hardware - but that is perhaps a very old expectation, so I don’t know that it’d be reasonable in your case

He must have very conflicted feelings about the Mario movie

What’s the plan for when everyone runs out of food in a couple weeks? Mass looting of grocery stores?

Does that cause problems with rendering small text?

A general strike without planning will just kill people, because most people don’t have the resources to get by for very long.

By that logic digital media can’t exist because the data has to be stored on something physical eventually.

I can’t believe you got him under the tree rather than on top of it

I mean, as a branding exercise, every form of sophisticated automation is getting the “AI” label.

The article is specifically talking about generative AI. I think we need to find new terminology to describe the kind of automation that was colloquially referred to as AI before chatgpt et al. came into existence.

The important distinction, I think, is that these things are still purpose-built and (mostly) explainable. When you have a bunch of nails, you design a hammer. An “AI bot” QA tester the way Booty describes in the article isn’t going to be an advanced algorithm that carries out specific tests. That exists already and has for years. He’s asking for something that will figure out specific tests that are worth doing when given a vague or nonexistent test plan, most likely. You need a human, or an actual AGI, for something on that level, not generative AI.

And explicitly with generative AI, as pertains to Square Enix’s initiative in the article, there are the typical huge risks of verifiability and hallucination. However unpleasant you may think a QA worker’s job is now, I guarantee you it will be even more unpleasant when the job consists of fact-checking AI bug reports all day instead of actually doing the testing.

There’s plenty of room for sophisticated automation without any need to involve AI.

If a hacker can get into the device remotely it can be an entry point to your home network.

The much bigger concern is that the pathway used to send the remote kill command could very easily be utilized by nefarious actors.

More like slaughtering a perfectly healthy horse when all it needs is new horseshoes.

Yep, that’s the brainwashing!

In addition to what another poster said about getting an off-site backup hard drive, I would recommend looking into setting up a raid array for data redundancy with your online storage. You don’t want one hard drive failure to make all of your data inaccessible.

Their comments are satirical, though it’s often subtle
