And which are those? There is no technology all major tech companies have invested in like AI AFAIK.
Maybe the dot com wave way back, but are you arguing the Internet came to nothing?

AI is already VERY successful in some areas, when you take a photo, it is treated with AI features to improve the image, and when editing photos on your phone, the more sophisticated options are powered by AI. Almost all new cars have AI features.
These are practical everyday uses, you don’t even have to think about when using them.
But it’s completely irrelevant if I can see use cases that are sustainable or not. The fact is that major tech companies are investing billions in this.
Of course all the biggest tech companies could all be wrong, but I bet they researched the issue more than me before investing.
Show me by what logic you believe to know better.

The claim that it needs to be strong AI to be useful is ridiculous.

saying every X user is a fascist seams an oversimplification.

That’s a straw man, nobody I saw here claimed that. The claim is that they don’t mind fascism. Which is not the same.
You can take a country with only 10%, if the remaining 90% remain passive. Staying at Xitter is remaining passive about their fascist propaganda.

I think you are confused, this is not lemmy.ml, and lemmy is open source, which is the part where it definitely becomes a false equivalence.
Because just because the developers may be communists, that has zero bearing on the content of lemmy.world.
The developers do not own lemmy. And do not claim control of the platform.
Musk is a fascist who owns and control twitter, and has used it to push his fascist agenda, spending $40 billion to be able to do that!

Lemmy is by the people for the people.
Xitter is owned and controlled by the worlds richest narcissist, who has claimed total control, and is using it to push fascism.

So very much a false equivalence.

I see you are unable to actually argue your point, and instead choose to continue with the ad hominem.
I’m still interested to hear what bubble it is you consider me to be in?

I understand you are hurt and angry.

That’s ad hominem.

But you have to understand there are people out there from all around the world

That doesn’t change anything, whatever country you are from, using Xitter means you are using and thereby supporting a fascist platform.

You are in your own bubble

OK, and which bubble is that?
Seems to me that the ones in a bubble are those that continue to use Xitter, oblivious to it supporting fascism, or accepting that it does. Now THAT’s being in a bubble.

False equivalence.

that have no contact with politics

Ergo they are not against fascism. Which means they are OK with it, because they don’t care either way.
Good job, you just helped prove the point.

who ate firmly against fascism

Eat the rich. 😋

Ooohh if it’s for MUSIC I guess it’s OK to be a fascist.
But you know the bands go where teir followers are right? And he is supporting bands that ALSO don’t have a problem with fascism.
It goes both ways.

So because there aren’t other options that are as good for your personal interests, you are OK with using a fascist supporting platform. But somehow you think it’s unfair to say you are sort of OK with fascism, since you are using a clearly fascist supporting platform.

You know, that’s called compromising your ideals for convenience. And if you are American you got what you deserve with Trump.

Seems to me the rationale is flawed. Even if it isn’t strong or general AI, LLM based AI has found a lot of uses. I also don’t recognize the claimed ignorance among people working with it, about the limitations of current AI models.

He is writing about LLM mainly, and that is absolutely AI, it’s just not strong AI or general AI (AGI).
You can’t invent your own meaning for existing established terms.

To have to navigate a screen to find a control is a traffic hazard. Also if it’s just to play music.
Physical buttons are always ready to be pushed.

Seems to me a lot of people are getting an intolerance to light, so don’t expect too much.

Wine on ARM

Ha that’s crazy. 😋
But so was Wine on Linux 20 years ago, although it kind of worked sometimes even back then, and it’s such a cool tool today.

I feel like features like Samsung Dex could actually become a serious desktop replacement

I sooo much wanted an Arm based laptop that could run Linux well, when the netbooks came out originally, competing with the OLPC.
But it never happened, all we got were handicapped Chromebooks and some shitty Android devices. Next year it will be 20 years since I dreamed of that, and now I frankly don’t care anymore.
Talk about a missed opportunity for Arm.

Wow that’s some pretty wild speculation, that could be fun, but the last part about Apple I think is highly unlikely.
But an Arm based Steam Deck could be very interesting. ;)

WTF? M4 beats it with around 35-40%, and Apple also has M4 Pro and Max!
I was not aware that Apple is still so far ahead?
Still the Dimensity is both efficient and a beast and a huge improvement over last gen top Android SOC’s.
Way more power than I personally need in my phone.

That’s it!! Now I will NEVER use an iPhone as a server. 😋

Yes this too is really a turnaround compared to “old times”. Intel used to be the safe choice, that’s definitely not the case anymore.
