Echo Dot

Maybe we could install a murder mode switch.

Perhaps an algorithm where its effectiveness is inversely proportionate to your bank account.

There’s always a Japanese company showing off mechs at those conventions as well. We never see them in general usage though.

The idea that a carefully curated data set may yield better results seems to be something that even the likes of Google engineers can’t get their heads around.

I assume my insides are pretty much like everyone else’s. I feel like if there was that much of a complication it would have been pretty obvious before the procedure started.

“Hey this guy had two heads, I’m sure the AI will work it out.”

Then it saw Inner Space and invented nanobots. So you win some, you lose some.

Hey boss ready for your unnecessary heart transplant just to please some random guy on the internet?

Yeah so let’s get this done I’ve got a meeting in 2 hours.

Outside of the US there are pretty stringent rules about what can and cannot be used in the medical profession. Typically it will take at least a decade for a drug to be approved, which is actually a problem in and of itself, but you’re not concerned about that, you’re concerned about technology being used before it’s ready.

As for “devaluing the work of surgeons”, surgeons are overworked as it is, there is nowhere near enough of them. If they don’t have to do simple procedures then they are available to do the more complex surgeries that actually require skill. They’ll be fine. Wealth isn’t really a factor in countries where healthcare isn’t profit motivated.

Yeah it’s not like I refuse to drive my car because it wasn’t handcrafted by a human.

It is an electrical fault on four wheels, but that’s just because it’s old.

They obviously don’t feel comfortable with the robot doing surgery on humans just yet either which is why they’re not actually suggesting doing that yet. It will have to go through years and years of certification before that’s even considered.

I’m sure most surgeries will still be conducted by humans but there are situations where one of these would be extremely helpful. Any situation where a surgeon isn’t currently accessible and can’t quickly get there. Remote communities, Disaster relief, Arctic research facilities, Starships trapped in the Delta quadrant, War zones, Ships at sea.

Yeah but the training set of videos is probably infinitely larger, and the thing about AI is that if the training set is too small they don’t really work at all. Once you get above a certain data set size they start to become competent.

After all I assume the people doing this research have already considered that. I doubt they’re reading your comment right now and slapping their foreheads and going damn this random guy on the internet is right, he’s so much more intelligent than us scientists.

So you’re telling me that dwarfs are immune to a thrown brick?

What do you mean this has been disproven?

Can you provide some context. A link maybe?

Fine feel free to just delete your comment until you can be assed to justify your racist comment.

Neither did you provide any data, somehow in the Internet it’s always only the other side that should do it.

You simply don’t understand how discourse works. You made a claim so you’re the one that has to provide evidence for the claim. It is no one else’s responsibility to go and find evidence for a claim you made.

I don’t have to provide evidence because my question was asking you to provide the evidence, I did not say I have evidence to oppose your claim.

This is the UK we’re talking about, absolutely no one in government knows how to block anything. Seriously every time they block something I just use one of those crappy free VPN plugins and get around it. Basically I’m only looking for magnet links anyway.

You don’t even need to keep the VPN on to torrent the file. It’s so stupid.

It’s not coming out until 2026. It’s probably unhealthy to hold it in that long.

The difference is that the Steam Deck actually uses fairly traditional controls. Two joysticks, face buttons, d-pad (not that anyone uses the d-pad), multiple back triggers.

This thing was been really weird with its three analogue inputs (how am I supposed to use three analogue inputs) and every other button was limited. It also existed in a world where I can just get an Xbox controller and plug it into my PC, and it just works, so what’s the point anyway?

This thing isn’t even particularly good at controlling the steam deck, which kind of proves the point that it never really made sense as a product.

What stats you haven’t provided any stats, you just said the had legitimate grievances and then didn’t elaborate.

Are we sure about that because I’ve never really been able to get a unbiased viewpoint. You know because they’re all racist over there as like the default position. Even if they’re not unpleasant people they’re kind of just casually racist, it does mean that whatever they say has to be taken with several hundred kg worth of salt

Don’t worry we won’t have to put up with it for long because apparently an AI is going to use a virus to kill us all in about 2 years time. Personally I wish it would get on with it.
