No, people like him are against vigilantism.

How do models learn from conversations with users?

I think that's because it's when the UN summit happens? And formally you recognize new states at the summit?

All the models are already too expensive for most people. Most people don't pay to use them, billionaire investors do. When the AI bubble bursts our retirement funds will collapse and billionaires will simply move money somewhere else.

One thing I didn't expect in AI evolution was all the "safety" features. Basically since people are too stupid to use LLMs and not fall in love or poison themselves all models have more and more guardrails making it way less useful than normal search. I think it was fairly clear from the beginning that LLMs will always be bullshit machines but I didn't think they will be less and less useful bullshit machines.

“It made me feel like, is this the America we live in?”

Some people are really fucking ignorant.

Sure, if you're just trying to say that they can technically do something you're right. I just thought that we're discussing if it's safe to use this service or not. The fact that they can technically track you is inconsequential to the security here but you're right, they can do it.

Maybe you have it set to a wrong language?

I think you're just confused about the purpose of this scheme. This is not a plan to connect everyone in EU to a WiFi routers controlled by the government. Mobile data plans in Europe are cheap, people don't use public WiFi when they walk around. This is aimed at people that travel abroad and non-EU tourists. Even the tweet says "stay connected wherever your travels take you". If your idea was to use some app to automatically connect to all available public WiFis all the time I agree it's a bad idea. It will leak your precise location to many different actors. But this is not the plan here. It's to offer WiFi when you're traveling. And guess what? Everyone knows already where you travel. You use your ID to checking into a flight, to register at a hotel, in many places you have to inform the police about your stay and pay some fees not to mention that you spend money all the time when you travel. Worrying about connecting to a public WiFi in other country because EU will track your MAC is some tinfoil hat level paranoia, that's it.

I get that but what the European Commission would do with this info? They would be able to tell that you visited Berlin in May or that you went to Portugal in June. And... what? They will not sell this data to advertisers because that would be just stupid. Would they share this data with police? For what purpose? Would Ursula von der Leyen use it to track her political opponents? See where they went on holiday? What would be the point?

Europe doesn't have the manufacturing capacity to arm Ukraine. It has the know-how but it just doesn't produce enough arms. Why? Because they thought they don't need it. Europe thought that in a case of any conflict US will help it so they just need to bare minimum of everything. Now that they realized USA is not a reliable partner (about 8 years too late if you ask me) they are trying to expand their capacity but it's really difficult and will take years. You have to build the factories, hire and train workers, find new sources of raw materials, figure out how to transport it... On top of that USA realizes what is happening so they are putting pressure on everyone to keep buying American weapons. The trade deal requires Europe to buy billions worth of arms from USA so now they have to invest money in local production while spending it in USA at the same time.

How did we get here? Shortsighted and corrupt leaders, especially in Germany.

What will tracking MACs give them? They will now that such and such MAC address connected to such and such WiFi router. What will they do with it? What is the risk here?
