You can deactivate it though and revoke all data usage.

The “reasoning” which is displayed, such as step-by-step explanations or chain-of-thought responses, is only a simulation of reasoning, generated as text based on patterns. It’s in the same form of any text production an LLM is capable of. When an LLM mimics “reasoning,” it is generating text that looks like reasoning because it has seen similar patterns in its training data.

It is NOT solidarity with the workers if I allow myself to be exploited by the employer in addition to them.

If a place is overpriced, I don’t buy there. If there is an option to pay more voluntarily to express satisfaction, I regularly do so with an amount of tip that seems appropriate to me in that moment.

However, it is not my job to pay the workers or to champion their rights while I am on vacation; that is nonsense. Either their salary is included in the price of the product or not, that’s definitely NOT my business to care for that because I don’t run their business. I’m a customer and guest and I pay for all the service. But the price has to be quoted in advance, I don’t accept hidden costs.

And if I get the answer then that it’s customary here to pay 20% more than the amount on the bill, then I say “no thanks” and leave - because I have to assume then that wages aren’t at a decent, humane level? That doesn’t work for me, would be rude.

I just want to go out for a meal. When I’m a guest somewhere in a foreign country, it’s certainly not my place to get involved in such sensitive issues. I expect the local residents and politicians to handle those matters. As a guest, I wouldn’t interfere in political issues like that; it would be completely inappropriate.

With any reputable business where I make a purchase, I expect to be quoted a reasonable price with no hidden extra costs. This applies to museums and shops, as well as restaurants. I don’t want to spend my vacation conducting extensive investigations and research every time I spend money to see if the company pays its employees fairly.

And as a tourist, how do I find out if a place pays their workers? Talk to the manager before I enter a restaurant?

That’s none of my business.

Pah, in Chicago they do this on purpose and are proud of it!

LLMs/Chatbots confabulate statistically probable texts, there’s no compassion possible.

Don’t fall into the AI-marketing trap of “we don’t know what’s happening in the black box, so we have to assume there’s consciousness in there”. The systems produce convincing deceptive language, but all signs of intelligence or compassion anyone sees in them is just an anthropomorphic projection.

Or get shot by an armed Samsung robot…

Not at all. The original is a classic, the others can be forgotten.

Yep, most people are overreacting when they see a wasp, even though it isn’t aggressive in any way.

Even Yeltsin was better on stage

As far as I can see MS is planning the agent not to stay in the background as you described but to be an active means to control the operating system and software functions, so that many tasks can be instructed in natural language.

Mamdani frightens them. Good.

I highly suggest to listen to this podcast with Damien P. Williams and Paris Marx:

“No, we don’t live in a f—ing simulation”

There’s loads of hi-res ultra HD 4k porn available. If someone professional wants to train on that it’s not hard to find. If someone wants to play a leading role in the field of AI training, then of course they invest the necessary money and don’t use the shady material from the peer-to-peer network.

As if we didn’t already have more than enough pornographic material on all the hard drives worldwide for training. There’s nothing new to come in the image material from this industry, porn is infinite repetitions.

“Doorbell with a subscription” is something so utterly stupid, an absolute misdevelopment.

Sorry Don, DJ Vance is already scheduled to be the next on stage.
