Anything public yet and are they sticking to Rust?

What we’re currently calling AI isn’t AI but just a language processing system that takes its best guess at a response from it’s database of information they pilfered from the internet like a more sophisticated Google.

It can’t really think for itself and it’s answers can be completely wrong. There’s nothing intelligent about it.

Oh man they’re pushing vaccines into us remotely, I knew it!

I’m not sure about the requirements that NHS has but a potentially cheaper way of doing it is having a psychologist run a few tests out of the DSM 5 and doing a report about it. Once you’re in the door with funding you can use that for a full specialist diagnosis instead.

Again, not sure if that’ll work with NHS and if it will it’ll take some research on their behalf to make it happen but that’s how I got around the same requirements for our local system without paying though the arse for a specialist.

It’s really sad that wherever you live this is the case. A thousand bucks is nothing to most well off societies compared to the benefit that treatment for your condition has in helping you become a more productive member of society.

Enough to buy a house.

That seems like a lot for this question but it’s honestly the only thing that significantly would. Cars and goods are great but just materialistic and I can live without them just fine. But give me a place for my family and I to live and our lives would be significantly improved, because we’d not have to deal with landlords, renting, we could modify the house to our needs, have pets and not stress about constant rent hikes and the possibility of being evicted.

I think everyone should have the opportunity to own their own house and politicians are betraying society and entire generations of people by doing things that work heavily against it.

I hope you don’t go with your edit.

Luckly they’re pretty good at searching for obscure stuff that nobody’s seen in a while.

Yep that’s why HR departments exist, they’re there to hurd the cattle.

When you’re a billionaire people are just resources to be managed.

It would be a great idea except it’s incompatible with capitalism. It would take away a lot of jobs from less privileged people and society would do nothing to support them. These people could then be exploited even harder due to job scarcity.

Would be nice though if we could have nice things.

Because the elephant in the room is that AI isn’t actually AI but is a huge database of internet and creative content combined with a language processing tool that takes its best guess at how to respond with that information to you.

Whilst those agencies and businesses do have fault because their DR plans were not adequate, they also likely had paid SLAs with Optus which Optus broke.

The state of IT in Australia is a bit of a joke to be honest and it largely comes down to businesses treating it like an expense that needs to be minimised rather than the cost of actually doing and maintaining business.

Homie got rich and famous by making a chat bot that spits out the internet back at you while spewing out buzzwords like only the best Valley hustlers can.

Personally I’m more worried about the robodogs and terminators that the likes of Boston Labs are putting out.

The GPL also enforces that you need to share your code, which isn’t necessarily what these devs want.

You make some good points but yeah, if you licence something under a license that allows corporations to do this don’t be surprised if they do.

I don’t know if there’s some license out there that allows free sharing of code with a limitation around using it in for-profit products and profit sharing for them and whether such a license would even work.

On the plus side it’s going to keep you employed, a bit like COBOL programmers today.

Never get your mental health advice from a “technology consultant” especially one that quotes things like the DSM-5 without the required knowledge on how to apply it.

The DSM moves at a glacial pace as does many academic publications as it takes an extremely conservative approach to declaring new disorders. Most of the time it tries to classify things like “gaming addiction” under the general addiction category rather than make a new separate category for a specific form of it. Being addicted to anything including gaming is still a form of addiction and the lack of a specific category for it in the DSM doesn’t mean it magically doesn’t exist.

Tldr: this technology consultant is clueless about stuff outside of his field. Just because it beeps and boops doesn’t make him a mental health expert on the use of it.

Everybody woke in the morning which explains why they seemingly hate everybody.

Newbies should be taught to review what they install beforehand on the AUR which almost anyone can contribute to with minimal barriers. Most users treat it like any other package repository but its not the same thing and it’s definitely more risky then a curated repository.
