Annoying. Don’t let the industry autoregulate, it’s always lukewarm and ineffective.
Legislate. Ban underage gambling.
This is not a complicated issue, at all, the only barriers are lobbying and corruption.

Did a little bit of digging on that one, before being bought by Bayer, the Cutter biological division was responsible for another pharmaceutical disaster. They accidentally (?) sold 120 000 doses of polio vaccines containing the live polio virus.

Intellectual property is intellectual theft.

Very skeptical of that one.
They’ve been trying to target amyloid for more than a decade, and it’s the first time I hear of it actually working.

The treatment seem to have huge side effects (brain bleeding and swelling) and lead to patient death during the study.
Elly Lilly is also know for marketing zyprexa as a treatment for dementia (despite inefficacy and increased risk of death). Which is IMO criminal, at best unethical. I’m not inclined to trust them at all.

I hope I’m wrong and it works. Alzheimer is a terrible way to go.

Don’t screen shot then, post the text. Or a txt. I think that conversation should be interesting.

We were making a big fuss back then. We also made a big fuss about Gitmo.
Nobody cared.

High quality sarcasm.

Unethical does not even begin to cut it. It’s firmly in horrifying territory for me.
If a construction company taxidermied their dead workers into animatronics and used those unholy puppets to perform the same job, it wouldn’t shock me more.

Alternatively, the fall of Elon Musk was his way of getting Jack Ma’d, because money is not everything, and you can’t just buy yourself a tool of strategic value and expect no consequences.

Where I live it’s much more complete than google maps, especially in the countryside.

Relatable.

AI fear is going to be the trojan horse for even harsher and stupider ‘intellectual property’ laws.

A few things. How do we know it’s going to be Pegasus? How do you know the price, why is it so expensive (and why would anyone assume it to stay so)?

Because if it actually is Pegasus, the main problem with this bill isn’t surveillance (although it is most definitely a problem),
but the tacit endorsement of this unregulated infoweapon.

As the poet said: doubleplusungood.

This isn’t going to be regularly used.

(눈‸눈)

Isn’t the whole point of AI decision making to provide plausible deniability for these sort of things?

For Instagram. Threads is banned in the EU as far as I know.
I don’t know how they’ll deal with California’s CCPA.

Social media is a tool of state surveillance and manipulation. Why wouldn’t it be legal?

It’s cumbersome and annoying, but they’ll have to honor it.

I use it from time to time. The tech is getting better.
But it’s very hard to find anything interesting on it.
They REALLY need to focus on implementing content filter and discovery tools.
Right now it’s a lot noise and reposted videos. The search function doesn’t work at all.

I think the platform could be viable with a decent, verbatim search function; a tag-based browsing system, and the ability to visualize the federated instances and browse any of them as local.

It’s still possible to find interesting videos by browsing an instance focused on a specific interested as local.
