Is he learning nothing from Microslop’s bullshit? Who exactly is asking for this shit?

Give the AI restraints, like “Don’t tell me to kill myself as part of this stir-fry recipe.”

4·6 months agoThis is the way.
Same for airfare, car rentals, cruises, etc. Cut out the fucking middle man. The booking sites used to be a nice way for consolidating your travel plans. But as everything else, they’ve enshittified themselves to a point where using them has become a major gamble.
Use them to find a deal, then go directly to the source. You may pay slightly more, but the fewer agreements you have between you and the service provider, the less chance you have of getting fucked over.

Android@lemdro.id•Google reveals its Android for PC is coming next yearEnglish
6·8 months agoI’d argue that it hits gen pop even harder than it does us techies. How many times is a grandma going to switch video calling and messaging apps before her grandkids install WhatsApp on her phone? Is ANYONE going to touch any console Google releases in the future after the Stadia fiasco?
We techies are more open to trying out new technology, but for the other 99% of population though, tinkering is a nuisance rather than fun. They have better things to do than looking for ways to migrate their stuff out of the next Google project that’s being discontinued in 2 months.

Gen Z doesn’t need to sabotage AI. AI is already doing a fine job sabotaging itself.
