“We thought having the ai voiced by ai would be cute” would have been acceptable, had they paid a voice actor to train the model. It doesn’t say in the article but I’m assuming they used some off-the-shelf model, which is tantamount to theft unless the company selling it in turn paid for use of everything in their corpus.
The “take that, liberal snowflakes” framing is beyond crazy.
People see a paper cup and dont think about how they make it waterproof
I don’t understand what’s so hard about espresso :-)
The CEO of Ford drives a Xaomi. He could have any car he wanted, and he chooses a Chinese car. It’s ostensibly for market research but he’s said he really doesn’t want to give it up. So yeah they’re cheap, and also I think China might just genuinely make better cars at this point. While China has been investing into manufacturing and consumer tech the big three have been dragging their heels and kicking and screaming because they see engineers as cost centers and that is biting them in the ass as well.

Canada does a lot of things better than we do, but all the things, really? They, too, have serious problems in their healthcare and educational systems. They’ve got severe staffing shortages in hospitals and long wait times, and their IEA scores are dropping across multiple subjects relative to international standards. Most younger working class Canadians alive today do not expect to buy a home maybe ever.
I don’t mean this as a tu quoque, we have huge problems here too and like I said Canada does a lot of things better than we do, but this kind of starry-eyed adoration can only end in disillusion.
PS don’t look up when the last documented “starlight tour” was
Everything Nostradamus wrote was incredibly vague and 3797 was just when he claimed his visions ended, not that the world would end then.
1999, 2000, 2012, 2025, and 2026 have all also been interpreted as the end of the world according to Nostradamus. There’s your track record.
The main problem I’ve observed with zipper merging is nobody can seem to agree on what it is. People get aggressive when you try to use the available space on the road, and in discussions online it seems people think you’re trying to queue jump if you don’t merge as early as possible.
Tangential but nobody seems to know how to drive in traffic. Pick a lane and stay in it, leave extra following distance, and try to change speed as smoothly as possible. If everyone did these three things, traffic congestion would be significantly less severe.
Imagine your living situation changes and now you can’t give them the attention you used to. What now?
“Everybody pees too but if you’re doing it 50 times a day something is probably wrong”
several reasons, but the dumbest is probably because evangelicals believe the existence of Israel is a prerequisite for the end times.
We made it lemmy,we got big enough to get noticed
i suppose they should have just gotten bombed and done nothing
And then, when they observe that there’s a lot of congestion (on account of all the people who insist on driving into the city from the suburbs), they complain that there are too many people. The circularity is beautiful.
They wouldn’t sue, they’d just co-opt it. Embrace, extend, extinguish is Microsoft’s MO for a reason, it works.
That’s why I only watch respectable length content, like WTYP’s 12 hour 3-parter about the titanic
so many creators are pandering to shorts. Its disgusting,
you are having an entirely different conversation than the one you are in. The point of all these little things is that kids teach them to other kids. I assume theres still kid-lore, its just about… idk, how to unlock the Freddy fazbear skin in fortnite or whatever
