Not one of those so-called AI systems is an autonomous entity. Every one of these machine learning systems could be regulated, slowed down, or turned off. If a responsible human being was there to do it. Those CEOs simply refuse to take responsibility.
For a start you might want to read this interview with Emily M. Bender who is a well-known critic and has much to say about what people need to understand when using these systems that are incorrectly labelled “AI”:
„Computers are still computers are still computers and will only do what a human being programs them to do, and people are stupid. Stop assigning them agency. Say that “Microsoft created an automatic hacking program which was inadequately contained.” Assign the blame CORRECTLY, because you cannot blame a computer, it’s doing exactly what it’s programmed to do.
OpenAI is a dead slab of metal and electrons arranged to mimic a human face and if you refuse to see that then you’re as brain-dead as any chunk of silicon.“
It was small. We had printed guides for websites!
That’s why I don’t buy Apple products…
Never do that. You should always fully own and control your communication and computation devices. It’s a matter of privacy.
You can deactivate it though and revoke all data usage.
The “reasoning” which is displayed, such as step-by-step explanations or chain-of-thought responses, is only a simulation of reasoning, generated as text based on patterns. It’s in the same form of any text production an LLM is capable of. When an LLM mimics “reasoning,” it is generating text that looks like reasoning because it has seen similar patterns in its training data.
Most games are not lasting longer than 5 years anyway, then the userbase is getting so small that the revenue isn’t attractive anymore.
Also makes a difference if you publish those pictures or videos.
Read the article: You do not need to ask consent from everyone in a city square for personal, non-processing use of recordings, but if you intend to share, publish, or process the footage (especially if it includes identifiable individuals), you must obtain consent under EU laws. Especially covert or non-transparent recording is illegal under GDPR.
I’m sorry that you seem to have given up on people. I still think discussing things is worthwhile but from your text I get the impression that you don’t believe in social discourse.
I think it’s a fact that people learn through and with language and that the symbols we humans use are what constructs our reality. So it’s very important what kind of language we use, how we use it and to be precise in our terms and vocabulary.
People are not readymade, everybody has to learn and learning never stops and people are not all on the same level. So no: not everyone knows the same, as you seem to assume.
It’s not semantic – it’s completely different things happening if there’s real consciousness and compassion present based on lifeforms on one hand or a mere simulation of that in form of a text output on the other hand that only superficially looks like there’s something intelligent.
People regularly fall for the illusion and project their own feelings into the machine while reading the text output of an LLM. Many are not capable of differentiating and the chatbots are designed in a way to make it more and more difficult to recognize synthetic output.
Humans are good in projecting their own feelings into things they see, just look at all the cat or dog owners who believe they can read the thoughts of their “babies” from their facial expressions.
LLMs/Chatbots confabulate statistically probable texts, there’s no compassion possible.
Don’t fall into the AI-marketing trap of “we don’t know what’s happening in the black box, so we have to assume there’s consciousness in there”. The systems produce convincing deceptive language, but all signs of intelligence or compassion anyone sees in them is just an anthropomorphic projection.

Same here, never used LinkedIn and don’t see any reason for that. LinkedIn is full of self-promoters, none of whom I want to become.
Open job opportunities are posted everywhere on specialized job platforms. Just subscribe to job postings in your own field and then apply directly.
And are there apps for normal desktop office work?
I’m surely not gonna use Google docs or Microsoft’s cloud clobber.
I can’t note anything sound ‘stupid’ there.
Experiences AND memories do vanish. That’s a fact, it’s completely natural and fine and it’s not a general necessity to fight against that. I found that it is possible to accept transience.
Guess what, we can have new experiences any moment.
Spending much time and money to preserve all the present experiences without gaps and to combat the fleeting nature of all things and to capture every moment of my life for the future seems wasteful. I did this too in the past but the older I get the more I find that I’d rather spend my time in the present moment than in the archive.
Not having so much, being more. The more we collect and accumulate, the more that holds us back.
But hey, I don’t want to discourage anyone and I can understand the approach.
You deteriorate. We all deteriorate. What’s the point of that illusion of having a perfect eternal storage medium for data? It’s the experience that matters.
