I just can't let anything AI make decisions that have consequences, like spending money, buying anything, planning vacations, flights etc. It's so bad now (I've just tried) that I'm not sure if it will ever gain my trust.
I see your point in user trust, and that's fair, but the same concerns have been prevalent since GPT3 rolled out , that no one would trust these tools to write or edit anything. However, since then users are growing to be more and more attuned to filter and distinguish the quality of the responses (doing invisible A/B testing of these responses), so maybe that's what providers want to capitalize on.
ChatGPT has become one of the top-most browsed websites, and they want to capitalize on it even if 2% of the people actually trust the new integrations.
not to mention the privacy concerns associated with connecting my entire life to OpenAI or Anthropic. If you have the memory feature enabled, it's scary how much ChatGPT knows about you already and can even infer implicit thoughts and patterns about you as a person.
I am sure it already knows a lot regardless of the memory feature, as long you're sharing your chat history/ have your history enabled, but I agree, it'd simply worsen it.
That's not how AI will take over Hollywood. Most likely, it will be hybrid work, when good but broke actors will sign contracts that allow studios train and use their AI avatars in future movies and promotional materials.
That's unlikely to happen unless the studios offered the actor enough money to retire immediately.
We know this because the studios have already tried to do this and even Z-list actors expect 6-figure payments for the loss of control of their own image in perpetuity.
Trust me, there will be plenty of actors who will agree to that for $10K now plus something like 0.05% of box office later for every movie, just because they are broke.
I guess studios won't even need to do that, they will crank different versions of movies and A/B test them until perfection, with completely artificial characters, for different audiences.
If it's 2025 and you people still use Duolingo, then probably they just like to use Duolingo. It's like people who grind grammar books – both ways to learn language are dead ends, but make people feel better because "look I have 1000 days streak in Spanish" ("I can write conjugations for 100 verbs").
If DL taught me something, it's that it's better to completely ignore any gamifications, streaks, "hours of input", levels and other metrics that language learning services give you. It's easy to get into trap of using them as KPI of your learning process, and not your ability to speak to other people.
Inconvenient truth is that anyone who remained in Gaza, in active IDF ops area, is not a civilian. Civilians left these areas, or at least asked to leave many, many times. Unless it's a little child that's not capable of lifting a firearm, this person is Hamas at this point.
If you have better way to differentiate, I will happily pass it to IDF. Don't forget to mention about the last time you risked your own life.
>Civilians left these areas, or at least asked to leave many, many times.
Where to?
Hind Rajab ,literally a child, was brutally killed when fleeing their home, after being asked of course. The ambulance which came to rescue was blown up by the ITF. The Whole world has seen it all, ITF proudly displays it. Maybe it is time to update the Hasbara points.
>Don't forget to mention about the last time you risked your own life.
Why? ITF certainly risks many children's life, just for sport often.
Kid, civilians die in war zones, that's sad truth about world that you was born into. It sucks that this child was killed. Nobody in IDF or in any other army wants to kill civilians and children, btw unlike Hamas pigs that openly bragged about it, and benefit from every single civilian death in this conflict.
> Why
Because there's no shortage of armchair operators that know better how to make split second decisions in combat. Also, they never do anything wrong because they never happen to be in situation where you have to decide between bad and worse.
In 3 months after implementing this policy there will be ports of entry full of people who paid any money to get to the US and that ready to share beds and work for $4/hour. Salaries will plummet, rent will skyrocket, crime will go up, quality of life will drop. Your neighbors will have to move out and new tenants will be 20+ people who don't speak your language and share none of your values.
Funny thing is those who opened the gate will be protected from consequences of their own policies in their gated communities.
That's what we see here in Canada after reckless immigration policies implemented by past government.
I wish I lived someplace where we could take the huddled masses yearning to breathe free instead of a place where they're literally rounding up my neighbors for the crime of wanting a better life.
For what it's worth I know multiple people who have been turned away from Canada because their immigration laws are even stricter than ours. So I don't know how much you can attribute your lack of housing to immigration.
I wish I lived on some planet where masses could breathe free and build good life where they live, instead of going somewhere where other people build good life based on different values.
> Canada because their immigration laws are even stricter than ours
Saying Canadian immigration laws are stricter that US is just delusional.
Canada has the most straightforward and permissive immigration laws, if you don't take countries like Argentina or Dominican Republic. Fill up the forms, get your score, wait for a draft, obtain your PR, wait 4 years, you're a citizen, that's the whole immigration. Compare it to h1b now.
> Canada has the most straightforward and permissive immigration laws
> Compare it to h1b now.
H-1b is a non-immgrant work visa, so it should be compared to the same category in Canada, not the immigration process (which in the US is nearly identical to the process you describe for Canada at the same level of detail, except “wait for a draft” is instead “wait for your priority date to come up in the Visa Bulletin.", and the four years is 10 years.)
How is US process identical to the one in Canada? Canada checks your papers and gives you a PR (Green Card) right away. You enter the country, and boom you're a citizen without voting rights and jury duty.
Is there such a thing in US? Maybe I'm missing something, because the only realistic way to immigrate to US that I know is h1b lottery/caps bs.
> these people don’t understand why scamming and cheating is wrong
Moreover, they openly brag about it. My wife's brings stories from her hair stylist that's very chatty about the ways they literally move their family from India to US and Canada. People fake marriages, divorces, report abuse etc etc. I'm still not sure if it's all true, but the very fact she brags about it is astounding.
Not any changes, but those that force me to change from solutions that worker perfectly well (like 3.5 jack, or USB-A, or RJ45, or HDMI) to shitty tech that rarely work well, like dongles, bluetooth audio, or usb-hdmi converters (gosh I hate them, they're all crap).
Just before you mention them, CDs and floppy disks were never good tech, nobody misses them.
I just can't let anything AI make decisions that have consequences, like spending money, buying anything, planning vacations, flights etc. It's so bad now (I've just tried) that I'm not sure if it will ever gain my trust.
