The air begins to leak out of the overinflated AI bubble
  • Too much optimism and hype may lead to the premature use of technologies that are not ready for prime time.

    Preach!

    But they love him in the mirror universe.
  • I think the closest thing Elon is to Star Trek would be a Romulan/Ferengi hybrid wannabe. Dreaming of having a star ship to manipulate, conquer and extort the galaxy.

    Ars Technica content is now available in OpenAI services
  • Damnit! I still like and respect the Ars Technica staff but Condé Nast can piss off.

    I feel for you KingThrillgore. I was thinking of supporting the site with a subscription but not after this. Still if enough people stop subscribing we may loose them altogether. This is a double edged shit sword.

    Disney Seeking Dismissal of Raglan Road Death Lawsuit Because Victim Was Disney+ Subscriber
  • This is atrocious. Coincidentally Disney is planing to open a park themed with villains. Seems like they can save time and money by renaming the whole place Villain's World.

    I've been a few times in my younger years but have zero desire as an adult. Sure they have some nice rides and attractions but the Disney culture is a huge turnoff to me, as are the very high prices of everything there. If I were to take a vacation that costs similar I'm off to a national park or maybe international travel. I prefer real culture over fantasy land.

    Reddit CEO teases AI search features and paid subreddits
  • The Lounge is where you were given access. That subreddit was ok on its own but really it was a good place to hang out, be friendly and helpful which sometimes resulted in being invited to other private sections of Reddit.

    Some of those private subs have a true sense of community who are truly kind, respect each other and fun to interact with. Before the awards went away there were many games with prizes and multi-day parties with lots of engagement and fun. Not anything like the regular Reddit.

    Those places still exist but activity has declined since most third party apps and the awards/coin system were taken away. That decision not only damaged the public Reddit subs but also the private ones.

    Star Trek Is Showing More Love To Scott Bakula’s Enterprise
  • It took me a few episodes to like Enterprise and now I really enjoy the series. I really wish it when t a couple of more seasons.

    The theme song was off putting to me at first. Once I bonded with the cast and characters it somehow became better and now I let it play for most episodes and even sing along.
