NFTs are actually very interesting tech with a very real use case. However, just like crypto currencies, their actual use case is so boring you’d literally consider falling asleep as someone explained it. As someone who actually learned what NFTs were long before they got big, I knew what once they hit mainstream, I should keep my money as far away from it as humanly possible.
People who live in California, if anyone bothers to enforce it, would have two options:
Switch OSs to something that does comply, or
Risk criminal actions for using their computer wrong
It should be implemented as “This is only required if you live in California” during setup. However, this does sound completely unenforceable. If I have a connecting flight through LA, will they send a swat team to pick me up at the airport for not setting it up and using the WiFi?
It's wild that Steam is getting a class action lawsuit for charging 30% right now, and Apple doing shit like this at the same percentage and legally is getting a free pass.

At least she didn’t cut every interesting program in Mozilla’s portfolio when every other company was laying off employees. She wasn’t great, but she was operating in a bad economy.
This new guy tho, he sounds like good news if you’re the CEO of Google.

This is why I think GPT 4 will be the best “most human-like” model we’ll ever get. After that, we live in a post-GPT4 internet and all future models are polluted. Other models after that will be more optimized for things we know how to test for, but the general purpose “it just works” experience will get worse from here.

And their relationship with reality. It always reminds me of that graph that shows a modern tank is less likely to hit a child in the road than a GMC Sierra.

This is a pretty great use case for AI. Instruction manuals exist for almost every product online, so models would be trained on them. Most tech is very similar to each other, so in the context of hardware repair, it should be a reasonable tool.

I think it’s a lost cause. Essentially both crypto and AI were big because someone figured out how to offload shit to a GPU efficiently. There’s probably a ton of other appllications for GPUs we haven’t even tapped.
