Good evening, everyone at fedi.
The Trump administration is really trying to destroy the global economy.

Open AI GPT-4o has already been deployed via Microsoft Azure by some of the biggest names in the world.
What does it mean, then, that economies around the world are so heavily dependent on language models created with such pirated datasets?

We are faced with two choices: either the AI bubble will burst at once, or the concept of copyright will be eradicated.Researchers suggest OpenAI trained AI models on paywalled O’Reilly bookstechcrunch.com/2025/04/01/researchers-suggest-openai-trained-ai-models-on-paywalled-oreilly-books/

@dansup Something wrong with you?

In short, AI hinders the transfer of professional skills among people.

There is no doubt that AI will reduce people's working hours.
But they have no clear policy when it comes to making AI work more efficiently; the mechanisms by which AI operates are shrouded in a black box.

My father is against the use of AI.
I am the flag bearer for promoting the use of AI at my workplace, and I know what he means.

@FlashMobOfOne Do you like to be physically active or use your brain on your days off?

Anyway, you can't say you are free without your autonomy.
Do you really love your freedom?

I'm not sure I am. I even stay up late and post here.

Today is International Women's Day.
For us middle-aged men, it is also a day to reflect on how much our values about gender have changed over the past year.

@steter Makes sense. You utilize Apple products as an affordable music production solution. It is true that free tools such as Reaper do not provide the useful material, so an all-in-one environment may be necessary, even though you have to pay for it.

I now have three MacBooks. But none of them have macOS installed except for the M1Max 16" MacBookPro.

That's right. For me, the biggest advantage of macOS is the ability to use Touch ID on macs and iPhones. And with their presence, Apple iCloud Advanced Protection will finally have value.

Where is the value of Apple products to you, fedi?

This means that the ThinkPad brand has been destroyed.Lenovo laptops get an F rating for repairabilitywww.pcworld.com/article/2616095/lenovo-laptops-get-an-f-rating-for-repairability.html

This morning I almost missed the train to the destination because I slept too many times.
I've been suffering from a serious case of depression lately.

Growth is essential. In a society that does not prioritize growth, individuals must compete for a limited share of resources. In this perspective, people tend to concentrate solely on the existing disparities in wealth, as there are no prospects for future growth.

Is anyone in fedi planning to buy an iPhoneSE4?

In neoliberal countries, anything may be possible with money. However, once under the occupation of fascists and oligarchs, there is a danger that nothing is possible without money.

Dear fedi. Let us not give up our happiness and live through 2025!

The development of LLMs will soon reach the limit of their performance.
Since the accuracy is low for occupying too many computational resources, I believe that the development of SLMs with special standardization and normalization added to the data set by experts in various fields will be in the limelight in the future.
