Many people fear that a corrupt or authoritarian regime might misuse data to cause harm. However, the reality is that such regimes tend to carry out harmful actions regardless of the data they collect. Data can make…
I disagree with this sentiment. Form factor has been the driving force behind the adoption of computing devices throughout history—look at the PC or the smartphone. Each one marked a new era. Glasses seem like the…
Crypto literally cannot be stopped, turned off, banned, or otherwise censored. That is its entire purpose and design. Whether that is good or bad is a different question. (Yes, crypto can be regulated. Of course it can.…
Moreover, Wikipedia relies heavily on news articles as sources. It goes without saying that news outlets are not well known for holding neutral positions.
Frankly, it needs to be in the very first sentence of the article. Acronyms Seriously Suck.
There is ongoing research that would allow you to dress up your avatar however you would like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAcavi6aOGY
Meta only lost income and credibility from that scandal, unless you believe the data breach was conspiratorial.
No, dude. Conclusions cannot be made based on feelings. Where exactly is that step in the scientific method? It certainly doesn't sound like the rigorous skepticism that should be applied to what is observed. I am…
At an even higher level, Apple and Google devices are what allow hateful and abusive content to be created. Should they bear some responsibility and prevent us from creating such content?
We've moved on to a different moral panic
Selling 20 million Quest 2 headsets is a pretty good outcome for the so-called Metaverse fiasco.
Let's not so eagerly prescribe the use of nascent technology.
That is plainly what they are trying to accomplish with VR.
Does AI/ML not unlock value for the Metaverse? Also, the layoffs are set to prioritize recruiting, management, and business personnel. That seems to go against the idea that they are switching to an MBA-led approach.
On what would we base this regulation? A hazy feeling of discomfort?
> the FUD about surveillance and manipulation should apply everywhere We're already here. > and be regulated everywhere This is where we need to be.
I would estimate maybe 1 in ~7 billion odds (statistical liberties taken)
I thought of a few interesting (speculative) use cases: - Treat photosensitive epilepsy by filtering incoming visual stimuli - Improve vision for cases not treatable with typical lenses - Use eye-tracking to assist with…
Newspaper— wait, radio— wait, tv— wait, social media is going to control the world.
It sounds like a joke, but despite public opinion, Meta is one of the top AI research groups in the world.
> everybody jumping from the bridge should be a strong indicator of what to do. Not jump from the bridge?
Regulators could kill several birds with one stone and allow alternative app markets on iOS devices.
Bad actors already have access to the data, right? Would it not be better to legalize/regulate it? I'm not convinced that we can put the genie back into the bottle.
What basis do you have for this claim? Screens strapped to faces seems immediately preferable, if only for discrete viewing. Why do you think phones won out against televisions?
No. These problems would certainly exist even if Facebook never did. Like I said, Facebook could be dismantled by regulators today. It won't do anything. Do you think Facebook or other social media are the main…
