Do you think people that are gay are mentally ill? Do you think those people choose specifically to be attracted to people from the same sex? A lot of the same things can de said about people that are attracted to kids.
I’m not trying to say we should in any shape or form tolerate child abuse. But it’s important that we recognize that there are people like this and they didn’t choose to be that way. People have no problem to talk about punishment, but don’t like to also accept that they are also victims in a way.
I’m not sure that has to be true. Like you can ask an AI to give you a picture of a sailboat on the moon, while it has not ever seen a sailboat on the moon.
It could be trained on photos that are not pornografic containing kids and images that are pornografic containing adults.
I was going to suggest this, you just need to not worry about the Chinese government probably having access to your data. On the other hand let’s not pretend the US gouvernement isn’t doing the same.
I don’t know if Xiaomi still sells them, but they used to have fitness trackers without a screen. I really liked that, much longer battery and no annoying notifications on your arm.
How does a completely decentralized platform handle data that should be removed? If some asshole starts posting CP or other fucked up shit, what exactly happens? With mastodont the server admin has the control to remove whatever he or she wants. Not perfect, but you have plenty of servers to choose from (or you can start your own).
You want something like society, mostly free but still with some ground rules. If it’s completely free there is also lots of scams and shady stuff. In the long run I think a platform like that will be banned by governments.
I work in software development, not sure why but most of the sysadmins and DevOps guys I know use Apple (phone and laptop). Most developers use Android (and usually Linux). Most testers use Android and Windows. This is purely from personal experience from the last few teams I worked in.
For me it’s more the other way around, had a Twitter account for years. Didn’t really use it much, a bit more in the last 2 years. Deleted my account after Elon took over.
Don’t we need a validator of some sort? To teach the ai when it’s doing something right? I wonder how you train an AI on something you can’t do yourself.
Not only that, taking action against open source for “national security” is definitely a road we should not go on! It’s not that far away from Microsoft claiming Linux is going to give China an unfair advantage.
Also with an app you just buy it. If the app is like 10 euros that’s pretty fast. But with Spotify you need to listen to streams for hours and hours, it’s fucking slow.
I feel it’s somewhere in the middle. Like your book example only works if you already have the book. If this is a model that is a few gigabytes of data, but it works for every movie or audio file it can still be useable. In that case it’s not that you have to send the book first, but you do need to have the same dictionary.
