Art of the Deal, baby.

And just like spam detection, as the AI detection tools are looking for artifacts and glitches that are the result of the generation, the only way to get around them is to improve the output to be cleaner and more human-like.

The end result is either hitting the limit with generation and being able to block most of it, or surpassing the ability for content detection, making it essentially indistinguishable from real content. Which is either a great, or a really horrible result, depending on your stance on listening to AI music, i.e do you dislike it because it current sounds bad, or on principle because it wasn’t made by a human no matter how good it is.

it’s still unclear why, and how, that happened.

Because someone decided to fly a plane through an airspace occupied by a building.
I kinda doubt Beijing has some rapid air defence interception plan that could somehow prevent someone flying their own private plane into a building if they so desire, any more than they can prevent someone swerving into oncoming traffic on purpose.

I don’t know if it’s different where you are, but here in Finland the generics (in store brands) are actually quite often made by the same big local brands, but depending on your food label laws it can be impossible to determine. Here they need to tell the country and actual manufacturer in the packaging making it easy.

It actually kinda is, the price has been $29 since 1995, adjusted for inflation they should be asking for $64 today.

Question the artificial instead. It can mean man made, but can also mean fake, and LLMs are definitely excellent at faking being intelligent.

Yet extremely understandable. On the global market, a phone without WhatsApp is basically a phone that cannot text people. For example, in Germany or Spain, 90% of internet users also use WhatsApp.

It would be like trying to sell a streaming box/tv and deciding that because Google is evil it doesn’t support YouTube.

The US is known for the clean city streets and good access to free public toilets, after all.

Most of the rest of the world expects that if you have 10 money, and see something that is advertised as costing 10 money, you can buy it.

He is someone who thinks filming himself licking straws and putting them back is a fantastic idea. He is definitely a teen.

Technically, they are buying manufacturing capacity. Datacenters don’t use consumer DDR5 sticks with epic RGB lighting, they use server grade hardware, and are contracting the manufacturers to make stuff for them at high premiums. That means they either aren’t making consumer hardware at all - causing shortages - or if they are, they are asking a premium because they could be using the time better making the server stuff.

Kind of like a medieval baker - if the king offers to buy 1000 cakes from you at a ridiculous price, you aren’t going to be spending time baking any bread for the peasants to eat.

You do know where that word comes from, right? Thirteen, fourteen, and so on? That unsurprisingly includes nineteen as well - a teen is someone between the ages of 13 to 19.

Yes, that video is 14 years old.

Hardware usually first reduces in price because manufacturers start with a need to quickly recover the large R&D costs using a high profit margin, and at some point they break even and can start bringing the price down. And often manufacturing just does get cheaper as time goes on too. Game consoles are kinda special, as they are often sold at a loss from the start because they expect sales in games to eventuslly cover it all, so their pricing usually slowly trends down in hopes it attracts new owners that will then buy a bunch of games.

Valve doesn’t do that with the Deck (they want the hardware division to be entirely self-sufficient), but they also set the margim to be really low right from the start to be competitive, so they had to increase the price to match current manufacturing costs or each Deck would lose the hardware division a lot of money.

I’ve been thinking of buying a slingshot and some paintballs. For another, completely irrelevant purpose though, obviously.

That, but ultimately it’s about time. Like how 100C water gives you a burn instantly, but so does 40C, if you sit in it for 8 hours.

If your body can’t cool itself, you will eventually overheat and die. And the limit for a certain death (eventually) is 35C (95F) wet bulb - at that point even a perfectly healthy person at rest produces enough heat to bring their core temp to over 43C and die.

Though the Index did use an intricate OLED screen and it had the lighthouses and finger tracking controllers (they have 87 different sensors per controller). Without the AIpocalypse, the Frame was originally supposed to be the cheaper of the two.

2026 prices though, who knows. Painful, like any tech hardware, that’s for sure.

An alternative way to look at it is that we should focus on the solutions that actually make sense. Carbon capture is like plastic recycling, the solution to it isn’t to try to recycle harder, it’s to reduce the use of plastics so we don’t have anything to recycle.
Also, do you know what the majority of the captured Co2 is currently used? To extract oil.

In theory. Nobody actually manufactures it yet in any quantity, and it will take a long time to be able to replace even a measurable fraction of the 30 billion tons the world uses annually.
