The US would be foolish to let Intel go under, even Trump understands that.
Do pixelated images of Kevin Ross's previous NFT scam count as worthwhile content?
Considering the new rumoured Steam console is based on RDNA3, it's possible that it will happen.
We'll see what happens.
The flagship addition is Magic Cue, a proactive assistant that surfaces relevant details across apps. Call a hotel, and your reservation automatically appears in the Phone app. Get a text asking, “Where’s dinner later again?” and the Messages app suggests replies from your calendar or Gmail.
I wonder how accurate this feature is. If you have to double check, then I don't see the point. I would also think most people would know where they are having dinner tonight and/or can quickly check the relevant chat.
The photo coach features sounds decent, but again, I personally don't think it's revolutionary, but I could be wrong (defaults work fine for me).
You need really need genAI for a country to become authoritarian.
My bigger point is that it's counterproductive to think of a government as an external black box. At the end of the day it's a reflection of society (at least to some degree).
What to do about it is another question. But IMO the first step has to be recognition of "how things got to be this way". If you can't do that, the discussion around the impact of genAI are IMO moot.
Take russia as an example. In the 90s they had a relatively open media landscape, chaotic and influenced by oligarchs, but critique was allowed and it was very prominent.
But the russians elected a KGB goon in 2000 and then reelected him in 2004 after he shut down most independent media in his first term.
To this day, the russian opposition continues to look for scapegoats (90s liberals, Yeltsin, etc.) and reject any responsibility of society more broadly (revanchism, supremacist ideas, imperialism).
If you can't even do that, then how are you going to deal with the impact of genAI?
My bigger point is that, IMO, genAI is almost a red herring. There will always be tech that can be used to enable authoritarianism. There is no magical tech solution to what is fundamentally a social issue.
An arguement could be made that good governance is the responsibility of citizens/voters.
So it's up to us (in the broad sense) to elect goverments that do not engage in cover-ups and do not shape the world as they see fit.
Fascinating article. I never that there was this sort of opposition to the walkman.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
Someone should post this in one of the tankie instances. Should be some good content for !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works
Google Tensor G5 in the Google Pixel 10 XL scored 2,296 in single-core [Geekbench 6] tests, with the multicore score coming in at 6,203 points.
Solid ST score all in all, roughly comparable with a Ryzen 5800X from ~5 years ago. Although I suspect the Pixel 10 won't be able to sustain ST throughput for as long as a 5800X, but that's to be expected when comparing a smartphone CPU and a desktop CPU.
IMO MT isn't all that important for smartphones.
Why is leadership always so vapid and disconnected from reality?
Just watch how in 1-2 years they'll start another tablet initiative and it will fail because of their inability to execute over a long period without immediate unrealistic results.
