The hilarious thing about Microsoft going all in on AI with #CoPilot and #Recall, they threw Intel and AMD under the bus. The whole last year of "AI PCs" won't get features like Recall.
The consumer reaction to Recall has been overwhelmingly negative, but all these companies are afraid of shareholders and investors wanting more AI hype to make stock prices look good.
But #AMD and #Intel have all these chips made that are falling in price fast.
You can find some CRAZY deals on computers right now that WONT run Recall, but are over-kill powerful for home systems.
Mini PC's used to sell chips that were two or three years old. This Geekom is using AMD's current laptop chip, with 32GB of RAM, and 2TB of storage for $899!
It's a REAL good time to shop a NON Recall compatible PC.
I asked ChatGPT another #AI BS engine to calculate Google’s BS engine’s failure cost and it came up with about $10.4 billion. Is that accurate who knows? Hilarious ? 💯
Cost calc below from ChatGPT
“Total Estimated Financial Impact:
• Ad Revenue Loss: $2 billion
• Increased Operational Costs: $300 million
• Legal and Regulatory Costs: $600 million
• Brand Damage: $7.5 billion
Total Estimated Loss: $2 billion + $300 million + $600 million + $7.5 billion = $10.4 billion”
Hello Mastodon, I know that a lot of you discuss the high environmental cost (such as energy use and water use) of AI and I hope that some of you could reply with authoritative publications/links regarding this problem! I want to try to convince an environmental science colleague #climatechange#AI#chatgpt#energy#technology#machinelearning#llm
"It’s telling that the #AI advisory council is composed entirely of businesspeople and entrepreneurs, not ethicists or anyone with an academic or deep research background..."
From @gruber on Google adding AI GIGO (garbage in, garbage out) to their search results:
"They’ve turned Google Search — the crown jewel of the company, arguably the greatest consumer product ever made — into the butt of jokes."
If facts and hard data are required, folding in AI is like a truth diluting virus. Once the AI learns about adding glue to pizza, there's no simple way to exorcise that "fact".

T**** tried to claim "25,000 people" attended his rally in the #Bronx.
The evening news reported only about 3,500 attended ("HowManyPeopleInPicture" #AI reports roughly 1,000 in the attached photo. Another 1,000 were reportedly in line. Not sure where the rest are.)
One of T****'s dead-enders tried to claim the aerial photo was from "7 hours before the event when it was pointed out that #TheOrangeMenace can be seen "right there center stage speaking."🤦♂️ #TooStupidForPolitics
A few years ago I adopted a complete #EncyclopædiaBritannica 15th edition from 1988. I only had to pay for shipping costs. It more and more feels like a good decision. #AI
Starting to get sick of this stuff, Brave. I should not be trying to figure how to turn this off, because it should never have turned on without asking me first. #enshittification#ai
