This just sounds like a boring definitional issue. 'Thinker' is a loaded word. You are advocating for a particular (more inclusive) definition for 'thinker' which clashes with the author's, but his is equally valid.

Forget OS updates. The biggest obstacle to exploit persistence: a good old hard system reboot. Modern iOS has an incredibly tight secure chain-of-trust bootloader. If you shut your device to a known-off state (using the hardware key sequenc

Does anyone have an actual technical theory of how it’s possible for commands that used to work , say a month ago, to just stop working? What is it about Siri’s architecture that causes “Set bedroom light to 30%”, a command that worked fo

This was quite catastrophic - everything was down, even nationwide mobile data for Vodafone users (and piggybacking MVNOs). I hope we get more info or a postmortem. It also had spillover effects on other providers — O2 service was degraded

In this case, I think the interesting part is the video itself / the process. He breaks down a very inaccessible product and explains how it all works.

Yup, both, and YouTube (for mixes) as well.

It's probably not a good idea to let a 12 year old use tiktok.

A well-written article tainted by the ugly AI slop banner plastered up front. Instantly makes it seem lower effort. It would look just fine without a photo at all!

You make a good point. I'm just spitballing here, but I think what sets generative art apart for me is the element of deception . I'd be perfectly fine with a hypothetical world in which all generated art is clearly denoted as su

Simple: I am equally offput when LLMs are used for generating poetry, lyrics, novels, scripts, etc. I don't like it when low-effort generated slop is passed off as art . I just think that LLMs have genuine use for non-artistic things,

It saddens me. Innovations in AI 'art' generation (music, audio, photo) have been a net negative to society and are already actively harming the Internet and our media sphere. Like I said in another comment, LLMs are cool and usef

The past few years' innovation in AI has roughly been split into two camps for me. LLMs -- Awesome and useful. Disruptive, and somewhat dangerous, but probably more good than harm if we do it right. 'Generative art' (i.e. mus

The anti-cheat will be very unhappy when it performs a bunch of arcane heuristics and determines it’s running in a VM.

You can disable the entirety of Apple Intelligence. You can't enable Apple Intelligence and disable PCC, though.

Another way to get around it is reading the memory directly with direct memory access (DMA) hardware.

Why don’t you download the project .zip file from Overleaf and simply compile the project locally on your machine for a build?

I’m confused about one thing. It doesn’t follow to me, that since all clients are running their own simulation, Lua scripts must run on every client too. If a client runs a Lua script, why can’t we just run it on their machine and propagate

Yes, same! Sometimes it almost feels like HDMI1 and HDMI2 or something, and I switch between the two during dreaming and sort of superimpose them somehow when picturing something

Driving isn't a medium of communication, so this is an apples to oranges comparison. If a medium of communication is misunderstood and found to be misleading to your audience, it doesn't really matter whether it's an educatio

There are three models: 1. Apple On-Device 2. Apple Server 3. GPT-4o Apple Silicon/Mx, iPad, iPhone 15 Pro can access all three. All other devices can still access Apple Server and GPT-4o. So, I'd expect the incompatible devices t

I mean, the software running on the client (phone/mac/ipad) is closed-source and, if we assume Apple is compromised, can be made to circumvent all of these fancy protections at the push of a button. If pressured by the government,
