He’s kicking into x.ai. There are good reasons to think that he bought Twitter to use its massive data-set of human language to train an ai - NOT because he gave/gives a shit about Twitter as a profitable company.
If it becomes a paid competitor to OpenAI, it solves its profitability issues without enhancing “Twitter” as a social media site. Anything he said about improving Twitter was likely a lie designed to prolong usage of the platform and enhance the dataset.
I don’t know, I think he was trying to get the price down because why pay more than you have to?
Also, I think a decade’s-worth of notable human discourse in discreet packets of n-characters in an already hierarchical organization paired with deep demographic metadata could be seriously valuable.
Lawsuit protection and the pairing of tweet data with internal demographics data? There’s no telling what Twitter knows about its users from being installed on their phones(geocoding, network analyzation, etc.) to analyzing their advertisement engagement to sentiment analysis of word choice and it goes on and on.
As stupid simple as the tweeting/re-tweeting mechanisms are, that doesn’t mean they don’t have serious targeted marketing algorithms and other high end data analysis tools behind the scenes. It would be silly if they didn’t.
Teachers will be forced to tell parents that their child is questioning their gender even if the young person objects under new guidance for schools in England, the equalities minister has indicated.
Exactly. I need you for one purpose: Teach my child <subject>. If my child sets fire to a car, it’s my ass on the line. If my child gets hurt, it’s me at the hospital. If my child has an issue, hiding it from me is less than useful, it’s negligent.
Until a kid is 18, they’re -legally- 100% my responsibility and how they’re raised is my call.
Yeah, I was going to say they just left a default alphabetical sort to their global droplist component and called it a day. Probably works fine in most contexts, but this one - not so much.
That’s why articles like this are a waste of time. Young voters can be pissed all they want, but they won’t vote Republican, so it doesn’t matter.
There’s a Center that voted for Obama, then Trump, then Biden. They’re the only ones worth convincing because they’re the only ones that will go either way.
I didn’t download this, but if I had, it would be because:
People already have cars and already need infrastructure, which is (in most cases) already in place, but requiring maintenance for safety reasons
It’s only zero-sum if you can’t afford both
Public transportation has a bad reputation in the US around safety, hygiene, etc. Not everywhere, some cities do a great job. Unclear where this meme is taking place.
I can cross state lines in my car, but not with a tram, making it less versatile - I can go anywhere I want, in fact.
I control the heating, air, music, occupancy, etc. of my car - Not so on public transportation.
I control my car’s schedule to the minute. No interstitial travel to get to it, no waiting for it to arrive.
Some people use a car as a form of self expression. I don’t, but there’s plenty who do.
You may have to share a seat with someone. Plenty of folks don’t want to do that.
Shit I just saw what community I’m in. Sorry, ya’ll - I didn’t realize. I’m new here. 9. They down-voted because this showed up on someone’s feed that didn’t subscribe specifically to a community that already hates cars.
She took something that aborted the baby in the third trimester(28 weeks), well after Nebraska’s 20 week window for legal abortions. 6.5 months into a 9 month process.
The baby could have survived if delivered, with specialized care, which puts it well outside of the “clump of cells” argument.
I'm old now. I've finally realised I get more enjoyment from watching someone play than to actually play the game. Why is that? Do you experience that as well?
I watch people play games like Detroit: Become Human and TellTale games because if your game is just an interactive visual novel, I may as well outsource the QTEs.

What's a quote that has stuck with you for your whole life?
I always loved browsing such posts on reddit, so thought I should make one on lemmy too...

Why is it so much more amusing to watch someone play a video game than it is to play the game itself?

Will people here use/try Meta’s #threads when available? Would love to know the reasons or if it would be just for fun/curiosity....
