  • I cannot imagine how disgustingly slow your college ones are compared to my high school's ones, which are 16gb ram, i7 boxes running windows 11. They are pretty damn slow even after they recently upgraded them a month ago.

    For most things, I just use my laptop since it stutters much less, but using pycharm on my laptop is pretty much impossible due to its lack of specs, so I begrudgingly use the PC.

  • My belief is that if you put restrictions on a child's device activity, they will eventually circumvent it, from my experience of having parental controls for some devices I had.

    Sure, if they learn how to circumvent their way to unrestricted internet access, they will be able to access pretty much everything, but the word "learn" is key, they will become more literate in the tech they use.

    And again, from my experience, the child would pretty much only start trying to circumvent stuff when they become a teen, so it'll work for a while to keep them off explicit content, then you'll probably wanna weigh your options, should I put different parental controls on their devices since they got through it, or should I just let them enjoy their internet freedom?

    Edit: so that edit you made, "downvoting it doesn't make it less true", sure, that might be the case, but your comment seems to be getting downvoted since it is pretty defeatist, like nobody should try because it'll be removed at some point. It's just like not wanting to put a cast on a broken arm because "it'll just be taken off anyway.". It doesn't mean it's not useful.

  • It's instant from everyone else's perspective, you have a 5 minute cut scene that outlines the area you teleported to, but not a second goes by from the moment you teleport to after you are there.

  • phase 3: they spin it into some new life hack

    "Guys I found out that you don't need to grow garlic, and you can save time and effort by buying it at a supermarket! Follow me for more life hacks!"

  • Not too sure about that, that might be the case but currently, they would need much more training to not mess up facial features, to make images truly lifelike and to follow prompt instructions better.

    I've used dalle a fair bit and I came to the conclusion that you will never get a truly accurate representation of a person, such as hair on a bald persons head, stubble turning into a moustache, tons of wrinkles for no reason, etc. It only seems good at generating cartoon characters, even then though, there are still inaccuracies.

  • And how will this be done? A proper legal system needs impartiality, which an AI still varies as much or more than a human judge. Not to mention, the way it's trained, the training data itself, if there are updates to it or not, how much it thinks, how it orders juries and parties, etc.

    If, in theory, we have a perfect AI judge model, how should it be hosted? Self host it? Would be pretty expensive if it needs to be able to keep up. It would have to be re-trained to recognise new legislation or understand removals or amendments of laws. The security of it? If it needs to be swapped out often, it would need internet access to update itself, but that produces risk for cyber attacks, so maybe done through an intranet instead?

    This requires a lot of funding, infrastructural changes and tons of maintenance in the best case scenario where the model is perfect and already developed. There would be millions, or ideally, billions in funding to produce anything remotely of quality.

    All I see are downsides.
