but I still have to wonder why it needs “AI”

Because in teams you could type (or say) "how many customers are still awaiting their refunds for their services that were cancelled last week?" and it will go and do its little AI magic and respond with the answer.

people are going to build up a reliance on it to the point where they start to not be able to find that info on their own

But they can never find it on their own - it's in a database, they have to use some tool to get it. Why can't that tool be AI?

they already can’t handle the databases so why are they even fucking around in there anyway

They're not! That's the point. This way it gives them access to information that they would usually have to put in a support ticket, or run multiple reports and then try and compile them together, for example, to get. Now they can just ask a bot in teams a question and they get the answer.

why aren’t they learning how to use them if they’re so important for their jobs?

Because their job isn't to access the production database.

It was generally believed about a year ago that ads would only show up in free products

It definitely was not lol. Ads have been in paid products for literal decades by this point.

You're not going to be seeing an ad for plane tickets on the map - if you search for "burgers" you might get an ad for Burger King show up as a sponsored result at the top. That's it, it's just ads for companies that are relevant to what you searched for in the app.

"To clarify: this change is not related to any security concern, and only impacts Yubikeys and passkeys – not other 2FA methods (such as authenticator apps)," X Safety stated.

"Security keys enrolled as a 2FA method are currently tied to the twitter.com domain. Re-enrolling your security key will associate them with x.com, allowing us to retire the Twitter domain."

Physical security key currently tied to the twitter.com domain won't work when users attempt to authenticate from the x.com domain, so they must be re-enrolled in preparation for what sounds like a sunsetting of the Twitter domain.

Who said that?

Context:

The project will apparently give restaurants and other businesses the option to pay to have their details featured more prominently in search.

In search, with AI used to get ads relevant to what you searched for. Hardly terrible, arguably quite useful.

Everyone on here has a pixel with graphene and uses a FOSS Maps app anyway, so this won’t affect anyone on Lemmy.

Is it available for the public to get to? Yes, so that’s why.

[–] FreedomAdvocate -1 points 6 days ago

Sure, luddite.

Not sure why you keep trying to bring anti-vaxxers into the conversation lol. Typical far left bullshit.

You have literally zero evidence that this E2EE is done insecurely. Zero.

No “experts” have any evidence that it’s done insecurely either. You’re clearly driven by animosity here, everyone can see that.

“Child” 🤣

You thinking you proved someone wrong doesn’t make it true. I never said that DevOps engineers can be automated away 🤣

You’ve given yourself and your agenda away by blaming AI for the AWS outage. It wasn’t AI that made the mistake, it was people.

My career, likely in a position well above yours, is going great thanks :)

Saying it was caused by AI despite zero evidence of AI causing it is dumb. It wasn’t AI, it was a DNS change made by a person.

The whole thing has nothing to do with AI, other than people who hate AI trying to make it about AI.

Network traffic isn’t sending the screenshots lol. Gaming Copilot is opt-in.

YouTube doesn’t force you to sign in unless the content you’re trying to watch is 18+. That’s just how it works. Your IP address makes no difference.

I’m not signed in to YouTube. Ever. On any device. I have never been forced to sign in to watch anything that wasn’t age restricted.
