I think that’s a RLHF issue - if you ask people “which looks better”, they too-frequently picked the emoji list. Same with the overuse of bolding. I think it’s also why the more consumer-facing models are so fawning: people like to be praised.
I asked it about the “Altamont Free Concert” (exact name of Wikipedia article), and it’s been a while since I’ve seen an hallucination this rich. Doesn’t give me confidence to use it.
Don’t all modern cars have an always on cellular connection anyway?
I’ve got as big a tinfoil hat as anyone, but I think this battle was lost a long time ago. Automobiles transportation will become closer to flights, where everything is logged.
The majority of new cars probably do have driver tracking (always on cellular), but not all of them. The 24 model of the Subaru BRZ in low trim does not have a cellular modem. The high trims do. Because it's an option, you can easily remove the DCM (driver control module). I did. Most Subarus I've seen since 2015 use the same style of removable dcm and only need a passive adapter to remove.
In context, we should keep in mind that new cars may not be the majority of what's on the road.
The funny thing is I got into birds because of the app. I hike alone often. Identifying the bird and then challenging myself to identify it correctly from memory going forward (before double checking with the app) is a fun game that draws one into the environment. Then, once you remember the bird (or, in my case, whatever nickname I came up with) you start learning and remembering facts about the bird.
Yeah, birding can be such fun once you have a small repertoire of birds under your belt. Some people get that from their culture or family but I didn't, so made a little game to get me going.
It's so satisfying to hear/see a bird and actually have a chance at getting it right
At the startup I worked at in 2023, Azure was considered the only “safe” way to use OpenAI APIs in prod (eg agreements that the data couldn’t be used for training).
Working with Azure was one of the worst parts of that job.
On the other hand there was e.g. CVE-2021-1647 where Microsoft's antivirus would compromise the PC with no user action.
(At least I think that's the one I'm thinking of. It's marked as a high-severity RCE with no user interaction but they don't give any details. There was definitely at least one CVE where Windows Defender compromised the system by unsafely scanning files with excessive privileges.)
People forget that prior to Microsoft releasing Defender, antivirus on Windows was universally bad. Like "make your machine almost unusable" bad.
This was also before SSDs as well.
With local build times already measured in multiple hours (large C++ code bases, lots of caches obj files loaded from central build servers to make local incremental rebuilds even possible), Microsoft didn't want to make things worse by forcing any bloat on developer machines.
My 401k has BrokerageLink set up and invests in VT/VTI. It takes less than 15 days so if your company offers BrokerageLink, you can avoid investing in SpaceX.
