You know what people say and particularly how they behave is a reflection of themselves and their mind. I'm guessing someone treated you like this or you admire a character in a show with this behavior, in short it imprinted on your mind and here you are echoing it out as I am what imprinted on me.

Wait how are we defining most? I would imagine most models out there aren't flagship models with billions backing them or with data centers. Most models seem to be specific domain small training models made with somewhat insignificant resources in comparison to flagship models.

In 2000 the whole data hording apparatus hadn't been fully implemented yet, and AI surveillance was something more so seen as science fiction, nothing to worry about until possibly 2100. Sure there was some data collection but it wasn't like billions of people were walking around with surveillance tech in their pocket 24/7. Things have changed and drastically. Methods to monitor, model, predict, and control human behavior are now a thing and quite robust. If only people were aware of what's happening there would be a mass migration to secure hardware, OS's, comms, and of course not a single cloud based always on assistant in sight. IOT devices are cool when they are secure but they often get the least attention, few if any security updates. If you can get rid of robot vacuumes, smart home assistants, smart TVs, smart thermostats, switch to secure FOSS OS's on your computer and phone.

You can point a laser at someone's window and accurately record their keystrokes from the sound vibrations. Things go deep in the surveillance and intelligence world. Nothing is truly and absolutely secure, just more difficult to crack.

Sure but you keep responding so you're into also.

Some AI, not all. I think it's fair to make a distinction between the two. There's very useful models with a smaller scope that aren't part of these issues.

Nah I'm good, this conversation is already so riveting.

I prefer countries that don't tip and just pay their employees a reasonable wage. Also when did the tip jump from 15% customary to 25% to 35% minimum? Anyways they're right, vote with your dollars to not be a customer of establishments abusing the tip system to pay their employees slave wages. Maybe last note, as far as I'm aware if tips don't make up the difference the employer is legally inclined to pay their staff at least minimum wage in most places.

I mean we are poisoning the world and ourselves today and the vast majority of people don't seem to mind enough to stop it. I imagine it was like that.

I thit talking to you is about sufficient.

Kinda reminds me of WWII when we had Japanese American soldiers and likely their families in camps with all of their assets seized.

How about we don't duplicate George Orwells 1984 irl?

So chrome OS but Microsoft version? As a Linux only user I feel for you guys. Windows 7 and XP seem kinda revolutionary now in comparison.

Nah it's all accurate, China is indeed a utopia and anything negative about it is purely western capitalist propaganda.

Probably the visa aspect. Japan is like famously racist and xenophobic.

They can but it's unusual. They have an honor system and expect people to quit. They'll go as far as sticking people in a room with nothing to do and not able to sleep until they give up, essentially adult time out.

Aren't you a ray of sunshine.

Sidebar, averages sometimes aren't the best way to tell the story. Like crab fishing in the Caribbean? Not so dangerous. Crab fishing in Alaska? More dangerous. Cop in a small town that hasn't had a murder in over 50 years? Not so dangerous. Cop in an area with heavy gang activity and drug sales? More dangerous.

Not even to touch the conversation on the mass extinction we're causing.

Sometimes there's a final spice level called "Indian hot"

Sidebar, if someone sold a $300 and $500 device with reasonable specs that supported graphene OS out of the box that would be cool.
