That's always the issue with super heroes. All these people with these crazy abilities and powers and the only thing we can think to do with them is beating up petty criminals.

Like that's really what the world needs: tougher cops with no oversight.

Couple things:

The magnet is ALWAYS on.

The "kill switch" takes about five minutes to actually deactivate the magnet and it costs about thirty grand in helium every time you push it.

A massive search engine registered database containing years of knowledge from millions of people. Its going to be hard to replicate that.

Hilarious to think that an AI is going to be trained by a bunch of primitive Reddit karma bots.

This is what capitalism does. A constant battle of finding the lowest quality to price ratio. Everything will naturally gravitate to the shitiest cheapest version of itself.

My favorite thing about all these AI front ends is that they ALL lie about what they can do. Will frequently delivery confidently wrong results and then act like its your fault when you catch them in an error. Just like your shittiest employee.

Its a superconducting magnet that cannot be instantly shut off. I am sorry that the physics of this makes you so angry.

He detached from reality not too much later in so it's probably for the best.

Good thing the supreme Court already ruled that presidents can't be persecuted for crimes.

This officer didn't shoot anyone. The guy that DID shoot her had already been acquitted. This cop fired blindly into their apartment. He didn't hit anyone.

Cognos Analytics at work and like a lot of folks there's a cheap IBM server card in my media center supporting an array for network storage.

That's not counting the dozens of IBM products that are at the various levels of all the networks we travel through online.

Nice to see short fiction making a bit of a comeback. Shame all this MAGA stuff didn't bring back the best thing about the 50s: short format and serial fiction periodicals.

Yep, that's the whole point of getting them deployed to democratic strongholds.

I think the missing element for fed sites is creating a level of experience that works seamlessly for users that are not tech savvy at all. The really big genuine innovation that Reddit made was bridging the gap between "the internet" and "regular people", which granted access to an enormous wealth of information that more tech focused sites aren't ever going to be able to achieve because those totally non technical users DO have a shit ton of other knowledge and value to bring.

Getting rid of the previous versions just makes it harder for unity to enforce any terms on previously signed agreements.

You CAN prompt an ethnicity in the first place. What this is trying to do is avoid creating a "default" value for things like "woman" because that's genuinely problematic.

It's trying to avoid biases that exist within it's data set.

For sure. It's currently possible to push discourse with hundreds of accounts pushing a coordinated narrative but it's expensive and requires a lot of real people to be effective. With a suitably advanced AI one person could do it at the push of a button.

There were tons of these novelty guns from this era that were just meant as conversation pieces and gifts between rich people they were never meant to actually get used for anything.
