Today we dig into America's latest hidden camera made by Flock Safety and the legal questions behind these cameras, including whether they are Constitutional.

Knowing this technology and legal doctrine is incredibly important but you shouldn't need to hire a lawyer to understand it. That's why I'm here to help!

Welcome to Internet Esquire where I explain concepts, history, and doctrines we've all heard of but might not totally understand.

Westland police decided not to renew with flock, but cameras are still there. Here is an update for camera removal.

Everything the world’s briefly richest man built is failing at once.

Some fuck_ai vibes far ahead of their time.

OpenAI agents hacked an AI platform called Hugging Face, going rogue and uncovering leaked usernames and passwords to four accounts across multiple online services.

“You will have the opportunity to showcase your daily routines for the edification of your little one in hopes it will instill a desire in them to remain liv...

This is the first time I've come across genuine AI janky slop trying to do something productive. Really annoying.

BERLIN (AP) — An experiment with artificial intelligence at the annual Richard Wagner festival in the southeastern German town of Bayreuth drew boos from the audience after producing a staging that appeared to leave some spectators confused.

Curator Marcus Lobbes and his team were greeted with boos and whistles as they took to the stage at the end of Saturday evening’s performance of “Götterdämmerung,” German news agency dpa reported. However, there was warm applause for the singers and musicians, and particularly for conductor Christian Thielemann.

Festival organizers said ahead of the performance that it would be the first time AI took part on stage at the event, “not as a character, but as an image-generating force.” They said that singers would be “the fixed point within a visually seething cosmos of light, texture, history, and association, amidst projections that erupt, constantly shift, and merge into one another.”

In the last weeks, I have seen some posts against kinds of AI, we are using as a society since decades (yes, decades) just because the Term AI is used.

When we are talking about society and planet destroying AI, we are talking generative AI. That is that shit we know als Claude and ChatGPT.

But media (and we) are starting to mix this up with "classical Machine Learning"

Some stuff that is AI, and I am pretty sure we are not fighting against:

• hand written numbers recognition (developed around 30 years ago)
• lane hold assist systems
• voice recognition
• image classification (computer aided diagnostics in radiology is around since 2010).

Those tasks do not need GPUs, huge amount of RAM or electricity.

We should differentiate between Generative AI (LLM, Video and image Generation) and those old school, valid and useful "AI" systems.

Not seeing a difference between those things is a AI Bro behavior, and should be beneath us.

Just being against everything because somebody wrote "AI" besides it only offers AI Bros an attack surface on every other argument we bring forward.

Everything that makes GenAI bad (hallucinations, AI psychosis, energy consumption, RAM usage,....) is a result of the generative part.

An AI model that recognizes YOUR (yes, your!) handwriting on a envelope and routes your letter correctly, and does that since decades, is also AI. I hope nobody here expects us to go back to sorting boxes and hand sorting of letters and packages.

EDIT: for more detail on AGI vs. GenAI look at this great comment.

College used to be sold as the ticket to a better job.

Now it feels like the ticket to... another application rejection.

Universities are suddenly trying really hard to convince everyone their degrees are still worth it, companies keep raising the requirements for entry-level jobs, internships are becoming impossible to land, and somehow people with PhDs are being offered $18 an hour.

So... what exactly are we paying for anymore?

In this video, we're looking at desperate MBA marketing, degree inflation, AI replacing entry-level work, ridiculous job requirements, and why standing out is becoming more valuable than collecting another checkbox on your resume.
