Okay I get that but for a « click away », a subscription of that amount is really too much compared to other amazing apps that I use every day. For example, I can make screenshots with MacOS a clic away. I bought Shottr because it’s a conve

If I press the option key of the Mac and clic on the speaker icon of the menu bar, I can select the source of the speaker and mic as well. Am I missing something here ?

My only gripe is Meta business model. So I prefer not to use any of their products at all. My loss.

Well this applies to everything then. Why buy the latest AMD or Intel CPU or Nvidia GPU ? Some people upgrade from iPhone X to 15 this year because it’s cheaper. Some have an old iPhone and just want the latest model to go for 6 or 7 more

Phones nowadays are made to last years, even 6+ years easily. So the update this year is not for the people who bought it last year but for people with an iPhone X or 11. They will see major improvements. But it’s silly to update (any) flag

Well it’s fair considering people gave their content for free (which is by the way the promise made by OpenAI in the beginning, to be open)

Do you agree that the brain-memory activity of writing code and reading someone else’s code is totally different ? The sand castle analogy is still valid here because once you have a x10 productivity or worse a x20 one, there is no way yo

If what they do with data is not "theft" then why this there US laws and contracts to regulate and authorize the use of datas every time I use a new US based service, app, game ? As we see from LLMs, data has value, sometimes prob

I don’t think this kind of « threat thinking » is true. « We find ways to steal from you and it’s still good for you because otherwise you will be left behind without us ». It’s kinda feels like bullying to me

I’m sorry, is there really that much people buying brand new cars ? I feel so poor when I see those prices and I’m not (for a European). The prices of new cars shock me. I even feel like people criticize the price of an iPhone or AVP becau

My comment is still valid for software killed in the mobile space. I don’t know what other people feel but I have a strange feeling that, because they have so much money, anything other than search is built temporarily. All their software,

Never in my life I will buy any Google product. They so easily kill products used by millions without second thought. This destroyed my trust in the company, they just don’t care enough, it’s all about profit and their monopolistic position

It’s better to read novels then, at least I’m not disappointed that it’s all fake.

Does people really want to mix reality and fake characters ? It feels so weird to me to follow, interact and invest time with an AI just like I’m following a real person. Curious to see the traction this will get. Maybe they think it’ll

Given we don’t know precisely what’s happening in the black box we can say that spec tech doesn’t give you the full picture of the experience … Apple style

My take is to explicitly mark a difference between human generated content and AI generated content. Not to label one superior to the other. It’s just to let people choose what they prefer. Like in chat bots for some companies they let you

We need a law or something that impose platforms to label any text that is only AI and text reworked by AI. And the possibility to filter both (we did this with industrial products). Then let humanity decide what it wants to feed itself

Why would ad companies not generate themselves the content ? It make no sense what he is saying. They pay for ads because today they can’t write said content. If now they can why pay other people ? I wouldn’t be surprised to see ads inje

You have a point, the problem is that AI might be better in some instances but in other instances for example insurance, banking, medical, in more critical cases, having an opaque system with wrong and rigid rules is worst than a nightmare.

Now imagine people want to replace developers with AI, not only we won’t have control over those problems but even worse the code behind it as well if no one reads back millions of lines of code to identify problems in rules (which already

I have a pro max and even with this size some websites are cramped and badly designed. I can’t imagine with a mini version… such a shame because it’s really nice to have a small phone at all time

It’s a game changer for me, always an office available for myself or a meeting, async check if someone is available in its office or is in a meeting, when you move into someone’s office the camera and mic shows up (if activated) and cuts of

We use gather.town at work, although irl work is the best, I never talked as much to coworkers in my life. We can share screen and code easily, we ALL have an office space to be alone, to work together or to have meetings. It’s the best ver

I tried an equivalent of copilot once, in the code base I typed `images = [` and the AI autofilled me the array with http links to real images. I never tried to do the same thing with private keys or other sensitive informations but it suck

It’s true and it happened for example with tailors. Before a lot of people were wearing suits and there was a lot of tailors. Now with industries and cheap clothes, tailors are rare but not dead. There is a few tailors compared to before bu
