It's impossible to detect whether some statement in isolation is a hallucination or not, with LLMs.
It's better for it to aggregate the information and then provide the resources to be able to verify whether any deduction is well supported or not.
I guess with a few more iterations you could have another agent verify whether a deduction is well justified, but that will also have some significant percentage of errors too.
Eventually more and more machines will come with the necessary chips.
And it will be more of an effort to opt out. Then only professional versions will be able to opt out, through more and more complicated pathways. Eventually it'll just be part of the OS.
Meanwhile they'll find ways to sell the side effects of the functionality to other organisations, for example to monitor employees etc, to begin with. Then to governments, why not.
Death by a thousand cuts. Microsoft Recall in a vacuum isn't the issue, but rather a decade of
- Forced Cortana (oops no let's shut that down)
- Forced OS Updates (oops your computer doesn't have the requirements)
- Ads in your start menu
- "Yes" and "maybe later" interactions everywhere
- Edge force defaulting itself on occasion
- Literally needing configuration management to run powershell on a daily cadence because settings might not get respected
- 5 Layers of failed UI frameworks duct taped together
Basically Windows is becoming such a bear to wrangle that you might as well use Linux and save yourself the pain and $100 per computer.
We're actually at step 45 or so; if you showed Windows 11 to a user 20 years ago they'd run screaming. So no, when we get to step 49 you'll have adjusted your expectations and go along with it.
My solution here was to name my son w/ the same first/last name (both grandfathers had the same name, one as middle, the other as first, so he got that as a middle name instead of the traditional southern great-grandmother's maiden name as middle name which was inflicted on me of my paternal grandfather whose name I bear).
My main e-mail address matches this (and most user names on various forums --- I even offered my son my @willadams Twitter handle which I don't use), so the current e-mail password is written down in an envelope in a safe and on my demise he can take over that e-mail and notify folks of my passing and more importantly, seamlessly take over those accounts tied to it which he views the digital content of worthwhile (Amazon Kindle w/ over 1,000 books, Amazon Music w/ decades worth of Amazon Rips for purchased CDs, GOG games (which brings us full circle almost).
This is my way of thinking too, but realistically we don't know if today will be our last - one needs to have a dead-man's-handle now. It's like backups, something else I really need to get done!
