  • Nvidia is by far the most important hardware producer for AI components, even AMD is barely worth mentioning as competition. They have truckloads of trade secrets for both their consumer and business grade hard- and software.

    Currently China doesn’t seem to be able to compete on a technical level with nvidia. If they get these secrets then building up hardware production that outscales nvidia by a factor of ten would be pretty easy for China.






  • Whether you think that the output is half as good quality or not why the fuck aren’t you JUMPING at the chance to do that.

    Two reasons actually.

    1. Most people want to be productive in some way. Even if you don’t like your job very much, its a much bigger mental burden to sit around and do nothing than it is to actually work.

    2. You employer isn’t going to pay you the same rate for half as much work done. It is that way now cause they have no idea what the actual productivity will end up being, but once the numbers are stable they will save as much money as possible. You will either be lucky and will work just as much as before with more but worse output, or you will be fired.



  • I’m pretty sure creating and distributing a destructive computer virus is a crime

    IANAL but as far as I know there are not really any laws against malicious code directly. You can be held liable for any damages you do though, at least if it was intentionally, since you are the creator and/or distributor.

    Which brings us to the main problem: currently no one is legally responsible for an action an AI does

    It still requires you to maintain the entire server infrastructure. Sure if you already have your server up and running either way then spinning up another docker container or whatever else you use is pretty fast to do. But building and, more importantly, properly securing a server stack just for mail is a lot of work for little benefit. And if it stops working for whatever reason you won’t even notice it since Emails just get send into the void and are forever lost there.

    If you really want to go the extra mile to be more independent from big services, then buying a domain and using that with something like tuta is enough. You can still jump ship whenever you like without the workload of server maintenance.



  • Consent withdrawal hat nach GDPR keine feste Form, sie muss nur eindeutig sein. Webseiten haben durch das ignorieren der Flag, nachdem diese bereits einige Jahre etabliert war, genauso gegen geltendes Datenschutz-Recht verstoßen, wie sie es mit ihren dark Pattern Cookie Bannern tun. In beiden Fällen interessiert es halt niemanden, der etwas dagegen tun könnte. Fast keine Website ist hier compliant.

    Aber genau darum geht es ja hier. Ein etablierter Standard existiert, wurde aber bisher von den meisten Anbietern ignoriert (danke dafür, Kapitalismus). Die EU braucht sich nichts Neues einfallen lassen, sie müsste nur rechtliche Schritte einleiten, gegen alle Seiten, die den Standard ignorieren.

    Microsoft hat DNT ja in üblicher Dummheit im Default aktiviert, ohne den Benutzer entscheiden zu lassen.

    Ausnahmsweiße hat MS mal was richtig gemacht. Privacy Optionen sollten bei Default Einstellungen aktiviert sein. Es würden eh nur Leute die Flag ausschalten, die davon entweder nichts verstehen, oder die auf dark Patterns oder andere Tricks reingefallen sind. Also genau die Leute, die am wenigsten solche Entscheidungen treffen sollten.





  • The issue is that they can just reuse the existing art once they’ve “removed” the poison that was used on it. The artworks with poison in them aren’t forever inaccessible to them, they just get them slightly later.

    That doesn’t mean we should stop, but it still is a war that we ultimately can’t win. Even if the poison technology advances faster than the AI companies are, they can simply use slightly older art with a less sophisticated version of poison.
