Sunglasses and an N95 mask anyone?

I’ve seen tracking apps that prompt the user to enable a vpn on iOS so all their traffic is routed through them (this was not a vpn app, this was a user tracking app - not malicious. Now imagine a malicious one that doesn’t go through App Store review). The vpn thing on iOS is concerning. The user may not even know or remember they allowed it and it could just be sitting on their phone indefinitely.

I’d like it if Apple restricted VPN access for only App Store approved apps.

Again, it’s not you who I’m concerned about. It’s everyone else. It’s not hard, watch:

here you go dumb teenager, download this crypto app and hit accept on everything and get mining this new alt coin

Boom, vpn enabled and traffic intercepted.

You may be not be aware of or simply have forgotten ever visiting a friend or family’s computer where all kinds of AskJeeeves toolbars are installed from god knows where. Many people I know managed to have entire pop ups installed soon as they start their computer.

I’m not worried about you or me. The EU is just wrong on this one. They are making the worst assumption about the average user, and that’s that they are tech savvy.

It’s bad news for regular folks who will be clicking those install links with no protection from the App Store. The majority of people have been kept safe up until now.

Do we know if these houses are built to any standards?

McCarthyism is back in style.

Sucks right? Life gets lifey.

It’s a trillion dollar company dude. Many people laughed at their 1B ipo valuation.

Basically, never ignore these things.

I don’t have the hardware to run good models, but if you can run a local one then you can write a small script to set a system prompt with ollama via the command line. Haven’t tried it, but sounds like what you want.

I think so. I notice on Meta.ai that if I ask a follow up a question, it often loses context. Cordoning it off to you are this and only this could possibly stop it from straying.

Just make that custom thing on OpenAi website, takes a second.

I don’t do anything locally lately, but I believe you’d either have to pad your prompt with something like what I showed you above or mess with the system prompt.

The stuff is there in the ollama docs, someone else can probably give you more details.

Better yet, just ask gpt about all this lol.

Edit: I might be misusing the word Agent here.

I would love it if someone would write an article on the economics of LLM pricing.

I hate to do this but this is the type of app that is basically the new todo app. I create small agents like this all time in about 15 seconds, with a simple prompt like:

You are an expert Tailwind CSS developer that I will ask for help. You may need to google the latest docs from Tailwind here: link.

And I get all the help I need.

You can make gpt be an imaginary friend for children if you want to.

The technology is the technology, the application of it is the magic.

We are like gamers that no longer perceive the improvement in graphics across generations.

Talk to Siri and then talk to ChatGPT if you are feeling that clueless.

Hey, no stupid questions right?

But if you suspect it’s a planet, you know it’s in orbit around the sun. Feels like something we can track.

We’re pointing the JWT pretty far out, so why wouldn’t we just point a camera at this thing?

I can’t come up with anything but something in the order of a ‘wtf’ would do since the AI pilot is not affected by g-force.

A drone f16 might make more sensible bombing decisions given recent events.

I’m open to it.

If it was Wikipedia doing this, sure, assume the best.

The same thing he did with VR. Probably got tipped off Apple is on top of Vision Pro, and so just ruthlessly started competing in that market ahead of time

/tinfoil

Releasing Llama puts a bottleneck on developers becoming reliant on OpenAI/google/microsoft.

Strategically, it’s … meta.

Even so, if the paradigm shift occurs most of us will be summarizing the manufactured pap via an LLM. Our time won’t be wasted in that case.

No clue how this all ends, but I can’t see any reason for websites to exist anymore. We’ll be going from one black prompt screen LLM with a Reddit logo on the top left, to another tab with the same LLM with a Medium logo on the top left.

Seems pointless, just combine it and list the sources.

Hmm, I didn’t consider this. Anyone actually generating AI articles on these types of platforms and profiting?

Thanks for letting me know Medium lol.

He’s also concerned about this:

If I could I’d accumulate Tesla starting next year as fed rate cuts kick in.

So you think the Russians got this to New Jersey?

It’s pretty good at blending the text chunks though, up to a point. It’s like compression, after awhile of passing in chucks your continued summary is too generalized and you lose resolution.

The LLM is always out of date. RAG is here to stay.

Because I forget.

Yes.

It’s for Apple/Amazon/Google to fuck up if they can’t integrate AI into web old point o apps.

When I pick up my phone, my Amazon groceries should already be bought. We are not even there yet.
