Let me put it this way: It's called AI, Artificial intelligence. Are trees inteligent?
Because they are a clump of cells that manage to achieve amazing results. growing to be some of the largest living things on the planet. Extracting nutrients and transporting them 20 or more meters above ground, where they are used to harvest energy from the sun, all the while producing offspring every year and fighting off predators.
I don't think many people would call them "natural intelligence".
The I admit that I maybe apply a narrow definition of "intelligence", but I think the core concept is one of "understanding". And we are not even close to al ML algo actually understanding anything.
And this is the problem. It masks the inherent shortcommings of ML. People are delivered the impression that applications that use ML actually do what they are expected to do, because like a person, you train them and then they understand their job and do it.
This is NOT HOW THAT WORKS. The ML algo does not understand that it is asked to identify oncoming traffic. It does not know that it is looking a cancer cells that will soon kill someone.
And even worse, we humans who make these things, are 100% unable to understand the models we create. We can feed them data, and compare the result. But that is it. There is no real way to understand how it works in detail.
They get used anyway. With predictable results. see Tesla Autopilot for a prominent example.
Also, I call them AI researchers for the same reason I call Nuclear Fusion researchers that, not because they are doing it, but because they are researching it.
I hate this complete and utter misrepresentation of facts.
GPT is not an AI. It does not talk. It certainly does not understand.
I wish AI researchers would spend some effort to educate the public instead of bathing in all the attention.
Seems dishonest to me, but maybe I'm just too strict.
BRB, checking how much cows cost.

Pressure on disclosure date until Bug bounty, then relent.
So, I would consider it a favour that Apple is preventing you from suffering this miserable experience.
I am always surprised that people are surprised by this. This is what those companies do. AirBnB, Uber, deliveroo, twitter, whatever.
It's what they mean when they talk about "disrupt the market". Offer a service with the bare minimum of humans (underpaid as much as possible). No concern for communities they "disrupt", or their customers, or taxes.
They are the company equivalent of vermin infesting society.
This is a great way of making fun of it.
git, vim and plugins/addons for it, *nix tools in general, man pages etc. don't need more than that and a browser.
Very funny.
It is a machine learning algorithm. It is an electronic Parrot.
thats it. And suddenly no one will wonder "OH MY WHY CANN IT NOT DO MATH< IT SMART?!?!"
I am never again giving up WFH.
Eve is an online game. That means servers and game clients that connect to them. That also means, if the company shuts down, the game is gone. Enter: Server emulators. If a working game server exists in the public domain, someone could run it and run the game client connecting to this server and still play the game.
You know, even men are allowed to just make Art.
Or something similar if anyone else gets with the programme and stops to produce for the landfill.
