The_Franz posted:well… Well I discovered that ByteDance makes all it's money on a AI driven clickbait news app in China. I hope they regard the US as a hostile market and never release anything else here ever. It's like someone looked at Facebook and Reddit and wondered if there was a way they could refine them into a more socially destructive product.

the total control is from the prc, substantively all the moneys made in the usa through a singaporean subsidiary, douyin makes little ad money in comparison, except for direct hard sales where they trounce tiktok. total revenue is comparable, total profit is a lot more in america

i think ed's articles have a lot of [citation needed] bits, but i mostly agree on premises like "management number-go-up types have taken over google and made it much, much worse"

mystes posted:Don't get anything with less than a n100 cpu now. The older Celeron branded CPUs are garbage in comparison and stuff with n100s is cheap now I was on a call within the last year where an industrial pc customer was talking about the next generation version of their product with an OEM. they said they couldn’t use a celeron/atom and needed a core i3 type processor their previous product used an ivy bridge i5. (I think branded as Xeon) if you want to be alarmed try and figure out when the average atom became on par with that part

Powerful Two-Hander posted:He praised the teams working on Gemini, the company’s main group of AI models. He said they’ve stepped up from working 100 hours a week to 120 hours to correct Google’s image recognition tool in a timely manner. That helped the team fix roughly 80% of the issues in just 10 days, he said. 120 hours? as in the average person on that team works 17 hours a day 7 days a week?? what the gently caress is that??

Yes, I bought The Onion. Why? 1/4 The Onion is an institution, a national treasure, and we need it. But its success is based on something different than most media companies. The Onion has been stifled, along with most of the Internet, by byzantine cookie dialogs, paywalls, bizarro belly fat ads, and clickbait content. And we’ve had enough. The Internet sucks, and it’s time we made it better. It’s time to focus on customers – end users – again. 2/4 That’s why we’re asking everybody to pitch in $1. If you care about The Onion, if the Onion ever made you laugh – give us a buck. For that dollar, you get… absolutely nothing. Just a smug sense that you’ve once again spent less on The Onion than its worth in your life. 3/4 Over time, we’ll be introducing new products and getting into new mediums. But more than anything – this is about unleashing the creative team that’s been making you laugh for over 30 years. Letting these amazing writers do what they do best. I can’t wait to see what you pee in Show more

the NHTSA dropped their tesla self-drive investigation and the results should not be surprising to anyone ITTquote:“A comparison of Tesla’s design choices to those of L2 peers identified Tesla as an industry outlier in its approach to L2 technology by mismatching a weak driver engagement system with Autopilot’s permissive operating capabilities,” the agency said. tldr: not only does it constantly get into accidents, it does a poo poo job of enforcing driver engagement even compared to other cars' assist features haveblue fucked around with this message at 16:36 on Apr 26, 2024 |
