Not the top right though.

Strictly speaking, information technology encompasses software dev as a subfield. Practically, a large software development at a company has very different needs and strategic goals than what people usually understand as the “IT guys” so what you mentioned. So they are set up accordingly in an organisation.

It’s faster than swimming.

Being able to criminally persecute someone requires knowing their identity. If this is the only approach, the real need to prevent anonymous internet usage will increase.

Had the same situation.

At some point I just got used to enough of it that it’s quite functional.

I wish I could change some of the defaults, but for editing it fulfills most of my needs.

Boy, Oxo has has a terrible website. Decline their tracking and it gets stuck “Processing request” while blocking the whole page. Accept and it’s immediately usable.

Is being able to afford these things really not affecting anything?

Especially the pet sounds like quite a difference to me.

If the microchip just contains a unique serial ID you can check with the producer, it would be just as easy to print it in the casing or glue it to the side of the wheel, no need to implant it in the outermost layer of cheese.

Keep in mind that this will hide all of your own posts from you, including in your account view outside the saved posts view.

The imminent threat of an invasion (assembled in staging area and ready to go) could have been tried before. It would have been very costly, but would have been necessary anyway for an actual invasion if the nuclear bombs didn’t cause a surrender (there was a coup attempt to prevent it, so it was never a sure thing even with the bombs).

If companies go pick the most professional applicant by their photo that is a reason for concern, but it has little to do with the image training data of AI.

I do think you have a point here, but I don’t agree with the example. If a fan creates the 1001 fan painting after looking at others, that might be quite similar if they miss the artistic quality to express their unique views. And it also competes with their source, yet it’s generally accepted.

The memorization is closer to that of a fanatic fan of the author. It usually knows the beginning of the book and the more well known passages, but not entire longer works.

By now, ChatGPT is trying to refuse to output copyrighted materials know even where it could, and though it can be tricked, they appear to have implemented a hard filter for some more well known passages, which stops generation a few words in.

Very often that info is the result of a full conversation:

1. I have problem A.
2. Try B
3. Not, working, I get error C
4. Ah, change D in your config
5. Now it’s working, thanks.

That means automatation is more complicated, and there’s also the legal aspect.

It’s still very possible, but it probably stops quite a few people that considered this.

So what? It’s not the gotcha you apparently believe to have found, companies can have insurance…

If so, who TF is paying the insurance behind the scenes

The owner of the vehicle is probably very openly paying.

If your insurance determined that an autonomous vehicle will cause less damage over time than a human driver, they will do that, yes.

use it to decide who’s resume is going to be viewed and/or who will be hired

Luckily that’s far removed from ChatGPT and entirely indepentent from the question whether copyrighted works may be used to train conversational AI Models or not.

I was on “hot” and got it without much scrolling.

I actually have year old programminghumor posts after the first page without any comments…
