No, this is independent on AI. AI for big tech is a core product, like a car for BMW. The layoffs are completely unrelated to AI, and related to stock price and interest rates of borrowing money. None of the layoff employee has been substituted by AI. It’s pure old school finance

Unrelated news in a single title just to attract readers. Usual sh**y to ride the AI hate bandwagon

What a weird title. They are completely 2 different, independent things. Just to be categorized with AI hype articles…

Why is that? Most car already have voice assistants to help in tasks that would ve distracting for the driver. What’s the difference with chatGPT?

Spaghetti is 1 type of long noodles. You have spaghetti, tagliatelle, bucatini, linguine, vermicelli…

AI is dope as well. Still they all have impact on the market.

For sure they were companies relying on the tasks that gps does now to make a living. They most likely had to reinvent the business or die.

This is how market works since forever. Something is introduced, people make money out of it and push other people on the streets. It’s an organizational problem, not a technological problem

Why is this ad not removed?

Smartphones disrupted so more industries than they are at risk now because of any new techs, disrupting previously functional parts of the society. They sent home thousands of workers, ruining the life people with previously highly regarded jobs, from retail to bank and finance. Why do you regarded their introduction as “better”? Probably because we were just younger, and you were more open to changes, and when they caused turmoil you didn’t felt the consequences.

(I am not against smartphone or technology, just trying to point bias and selective memory)

How is it useful? Dessert vs food?

“At the end of the lunch nowadays everyone want to have a dessert, but this is wrong because they should have food”…

The sentence AI vs algorithms sounds pretty much like this

AI is a broad family of statistical and simulation algorithms.

They don’t replace algorithms, they are algorithms very powerful for some cases. For other cases they are less powerful, or overkill and they shouldn’t be used. But there is no dichotomy, as one (AI) is part of the other (algorithms)

Tastes… I use both at work and I don’t see a difference.

What one should understand is that by using edge they cannot really complain about Google gathering their data. Edge does the same and send them to a different recipient

It’s not an average machine though. It’s a non-linear predictive system. Averages suck in non-linear predictions

No, I am saying that edge is literally chrome with a different logo and a tracking system that aggregates and sends the same type of data to a different server (a MS server).

If someone feels like chrome is a bad browser, they should use Firefox, which isn’t Chrome

A wolkswagen golf and a jeep renegade are 2 different cars, but they are still cars…

If chrome is a blue jeep renegade, edge is a green jeep renegade, with a GM logo and a different gps system

It has Microsoft’s one, tough. It isn’t different

It is chrome with a different tracking system

Potatoes and lemons I was told

The process is so simple that there is no reason to not do it. My wife is non-tech person, I installed ubuntu on her laptop and she’s very happy because it’s faster than windows. I have never updated it for her. She does it. Only thing I have done is the upgrade to a new ubuntu release

Most distro nowadays come with a gui to update. A pop up window appears asking if you want to update/upgrade. You can press “yes” and the password of the sudoer or admin user is asked. It has been like this for over a decade. For popular distros as Ubuntu or fedora over 15 years

Is it different for your distro?

His dad just needs to put a password when asked. It’s a 6-years-old kid task updating on most Linux distro.
