“Modern-day company town planned for Phoenix”

TIL Habermas is still alive.

Many authors stipulate that their books must be sold on Amazon without DRM, so their readers can back up and use their books outside Amazon’s ecosystem. Does preventing users from accessing their files violate any conditions that were implied when people bought and sold books with that feature?

There is one thing I would find genuinely useful that seems within its current capabilities. I’d like to be able to give an AI a summary of my current knowledge on a subject, along with a batch of papers or articles, and have it give me one or more of the following:

• A summary of the papers omitting the stuff I already know

• A summary of any prerequisite background info I don’t already know, but isn’t in the papers

• A summary of all the points on which the papers are in agreement

• A summary of any points where the papers are in contention.

Another advantage of Nextcloud over Syncthing is selective syncing: Syncthing replicates the entire collection of synced files on each peer, but Nextcloud lets clients sync and unsync subfolders as needed while keeping all the files on the server. That could be useful for OP if they have a terabyte of files to sync but don’t have that much drive space to spare on every client.

“I do feel like it added a level of distance to it that wasn’t a bad thing,” he told Ars Technica. “Maybe a bit like a personal assistant who stays professional and has your back even in the most awful situations, but yeah, more than anything it felt unreal and dystopian.”

If the single word “dystopian” is how the editors decided to summarize that description, I’m not sure they’re doing any better than the AI.

“AI” is the new “Space-Age”.

You can install and run Stable Diffusion locally (Pinokio is a versatile installer that can run SD and many other open-source AI tools as well). With SD you can build your own upscalers that are better than Upscayl, and do things like background removal too (in addition to prompt-based generation and such).

Schrödinger’s epistemology.

To be fair, in this instance it’s slightly more literal than in 99% of other headlines.

He might hypothetically veto legislation (which would never get through Congress anyway), but he’ll appoint Supreme Court justices who will effectively do the same thing.

A typical use case is to forward a single port to the proxy, then set the proxy to map different subdomains to different machines/ports on your internal network. Anything not explicitly mapped by the reverse proxy isn’t visible externally.

Like other states, California won’t financially penalize violators, but it will post the names of violators on the state Department of Justice’s website.

Sounds like the state is just giving the violators free advertising to potential donors who want to exploit the practice.

Did they mean to say “overzealous”?

Because a “zealous” prosecutor is just one committed to doing their job.

Newsom on Sunday instead announced that the state will partner with several industry experts, including AI pioneer Fei-Fei Li, to develop guardrails around powerful AI models.

That’s reassuring—Li is one of the best-qualified people for the role, and she isn’t in the pocket of any of the major players.

I wouldn’t be surprised if their AI rewrites their terms of service every time you try to print it.

One could use Perfect Output to quickly fix image sizes and remove ads and white space when printing something off a website, HP says as an example.

So Reader Mode for printing?

That seems like a feature that would be better handled by the browser than the printer—this is the equivalent of implementing reader mode by adding AI to your monitor.

Why does the title specify that the tool is taking down “AI-generated” pictures if the article focuses on how it’s taking down fan art indiscriminately?
