It seems like you might be inventing a form of non-monotonic logic. Check out answer set programming, it actually does exactly what you want of "unlearning" facts that you've learned. Not sure if it helps in your particular instance, but it's very cool stuff and IIRC there is an implementation that extends datalog. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Answer_set_programming
That was my thought too. It failed amazingly at the task yet they were still thinking it was helpful. I had to go back and reread bits because I thought I’d missed a bit where Gemini hadn’t cocked up.
Very odd conclusion to an otherwise interesting experiment.
If they are sharing the footage with a dragnet, tracking people across the country, and giving access to unaccountable cops with a history of abusing that data?
Yes.
If they are using it to see when their amazon package got delivered, or for bog standard security purposes?
There used to be a tiny macos app that allowed you to navigate the websites typing letters to follow links instead of needlessly roam your mouse around.
Sadly, macos keyboard navigation is dwindling in interactions like the screen sharing pop up when you plug in a monitor
This really matches up to my experience on long research projects with Claude.
It’s very hard to remove information - Claude has a habit of recording things all over the place and will happily treat things as facts even after they’ve been disproved.
What is currently true can get easily contaminated with old “facts”.
What about software projects (such as anonymous messengers) with political stances, who state the kinds of people their software is intended to help? Is that material assistance?
How is Signal not providing material assistance if someone alerts them that “terrorists” are now using their platform?
Sanctioning providers who host political groups, even if it’s extreme politics, is something new. It’s reminiscent of the Bush admin going after Indymedia, which was a huge violation of free speech and was obviously politically targeted. It’s extra ridiculous because we fund and supply the PKK, which makes this look like a fig leaf for the real goal of disrupting left politics. I don’t like the radical left, but I don’t think this is constitutionally allowed.
I feel like we need some bold lines drawn around this to make sure this power doesn’t get misused.
I've had situations where I wished there was a robot I could get to plug in a cable.
The question with this and other efforts is: will this be used to enhance or maintain quality or will it be allowed to reduce costs and whatever quality level arises is the new acceptable?
Robot pizza that made Michelin level pizza would be welcomed. If we're just supposed to eat whatever crap tier pizza the robot owner can manage, why would anyone bother?
Are we sure there isn't some single market principle that overrules the presumption that you'd have to register in every country? AFAIK generally you're allowed to operate in one country and sell things to other countries, under some principle of single market / customs union.
Datastar relies way to much on IDs everywhere that it's not ergonomic and turns into a chore. It's also a bit too complicated for its own good trying to solve everything.
Yeah that was awful, but in her case she was unaware of the poisoning for months iirc. Then again I don't really buy that chelation therapy works that well for something as absurdly toxic as this even if you found a safe and workable ligand.
I guess the student just needs to hope their exposure was incredibly minute, otherwise they really have only a hard death to look forward to.
Do you count the MEP who subpoenaed the ATM company that charged a $175 ATM fee? What's your corruption angle there? Wa she getting paid off by a competing ATM company?
Right, subscriptions are not only cheaper because they "create lock-in". They also let you do things like forecast demand and plan your capacity for it, borrow against it sometimes if you need to, and keep somewhat less around because your cashflows are predictable. It is also valuable because it keeps customers around but that's by no means the only reason recurring revenue gets a higher multiple.
This is why "subsidized tokens" is possibly a misnomer. Money at lower variance is worth more than the same money at higher variance. Not "subsidy" so much as reducing risk and passing some of that to a consumer.
What you need to do, in the modern Web, is to flip that around.
Anytime I need to search an entity with physical presence, I use Google Maps first. Maps is very good about getting the first result as intended and not showing superfluous non-matches. Maps will not chirp up with AI-generated responses. Maps will take me right to the place I want, and I can see a lot of profile info at-a-glance, and if I wanted their website, then Maps will give me their main website, and nothing else.
Whether it's a corporate HQ, a clinic, a local restaurant, or a geographic area, Maps can come up with a lot of relevant info and I don't waste my time in an enshittified Search. So I'm thankful for the Maps app and its mobile integrations.
> the current supreme court seems perfectly willing to throw out decades of settled law on an ideological whim, and actually, for that matter, happily interpret very clear congressional statutes in very odd ways
Fortunately or unfortunately, the Supreme Court has always been willing to do that. This court has been overruling decisions of the Warren Court, just as the Warren Court overruled decisions from the Lochner Era.
