I installed Ubuntu on my father in law laptop years ago and it is still kicking. ( he's 85 this year) He does whatever he was doing before. My smallest which is 12 has zorin installed in her first peesonal pc and never asked any help. I think that the response greatly vary by the use of the computer you have.

This is true. You need people ready to kill and die because of an order. Sane people, if free to choose, dont go to war

Injustifiable war, exactly. Donbass is occupied from 2008. They had elections to go with russia. Instambul treaty was signed, when usa and Johnson decided war had to continue. This is an injustifiable war driven by USA. Like many in the world.

Was Iraq bad? Ofc. Who installed saddam in the first place? Trump is telling: Americans first create the mess, buy the dips ( like Iraqi gold), then either flee like in Afghanistan, or try to reach some kpi for allied press. American imperialism is a cancer.

Dude donbass is occupied from 2008. Wealthy ukranians dont give a shit, 5millions fled cause they could buy houses everywhere. First week of war in Valencia we saw a spike in mercedes, thought they were Russians. They were so many. All males, 20/40 years old, buying flats.

They have a list of people to kill like Israel. Mostly journalists. Some Italian guy was killed because he was documenting ukranian war crimes. If one kills like a nazi, act as a nazi, is he a nazi?

I mean, most of them are fine with people kidnapping 5 years old and put them in concentration camps. They just go on socials to signal indignation

Shut up, your is American propaganda. War could have ended in 4 months if not for Biden. Do you remeber the instambul treaty ?

I recently had an hook to get some investment for a startup. Money is flowing in this sector. The investor told me: find me any idea that might sell, be useful.

I went to speak with 3 associations of entrepreneurs in 3 different countries. Like guys, we have the money, give me some ideas, all services will be free for.you. All these entrepreneurs did not know where to fit AI if not for some support chat.

Several flaws here: dependomg on the tasks, you can train and retrain models. Instruct new ones. Previous errors will be greatly reduced, or disappear completely. ( if we talk about errors only ). Hallucinations are mathematically certain for less specialized models, but this is another problem all togheter.

Using ai is indeed saving money ( and time ). It excels at tedious tasks with well defined constraints. This saves me so much time everyday: ie: find X in dataset Y that do not much Z. This work was usually done by humans, with an higher error rate. If I take 3 minutes to classify 1 millions rows, which would have took me at least 3 days before, that is money saved.

This said, they trying to push the reverse centaur approach, human overseeing the ai worker, which is flawed. But companies reason in stakeholders profit and 3 months windows.

When I started as a junior i was the guy classifying 1 M records. That is how I leaned. Now we dont have juniors anymore. But companies seems to dont care about the next 5 years.

I work in AI and the only obvious profit is the ability to fire workers. Which they need to rehire after some months, but lowering wages. It is indeed a powerful tool, but tools are not driving profits. They are a cost. Unless you run a disinformation botnet, scamming websites, or porn. It is too unpredictable to really automatize software creation ( fuzzy is the term, we somehow mitigate with stochastic approach ). Probably movie industry is also cutting costs, but not sure.

AI is the way capital is trying to acquire skills cutting off the skilled.

Have to say though that having an interfacd that understands natural language opens so many possibilities. Which could really democratize access to tech, but they are so niche that they would never really drive profit.

Andreanl rochelli was killed because he was documenting ukranian war crimes. This is nazi shit.
