It's got nothing to do with artificial intelligence, the writer of the article is just an idiot.

What quantum mechanical problem would an LLM be able to assist with? We don't understand quantum mechanics all that well so how would an AI trained on a data be any better? Truly stupid article.

So you can't actually solve problems. You can just look up previously solved problems.

What a clever idea to write the results of an experiment down.

I really want to see a Dreamcast in a hermetically sealed bag. I will never get to of course because the sort of people who put dreamcasts in hermetically sealed bags are not the sort of people whose homes you want to go to.

The promise of "fiber to the home" is still mostly unrealized

Really? The US is really unsophisticated in certain key areas that you wouldn't expect.

Because they don't have a clue how technology actually works. I have genuinely heard people claim that AI should run on Asimovs laws of robotics, even though not only would they not work in the real world, they don't even work in the books. Zero common sense.

Pretty sure it's also going to tell people to alt f4 as well.

It reminds me of that guy that gave an AI instructions in all caps, as if that was some sort of safeguard. The problem isn't the artificial intelligence it's the idiot biological that has decided to ride around without safety wheels.

This article is so stupid rmdir isn't some magical military grade file eraser. It literally just flags the disc space as available, that's it. Claiming these files are unrecoverable is like claiming that you have snapped someone out of existence, when you just delete them from your contacts.

The user in question was using AI to delete files, it probably took them longer to ask the AI to do it than it would have done for them to have just gone into the final browser and deleted them themselves, so they probably don't know how to use data recovery software, that's all.

I also find it intriguing that rather than using the AI's advice and stop using the drive so they don't overwrite data they decided that the best course of action would be to make a YouTube video about it. Which is probably a massive file and is probably overwritten previously recoverable data.

What a pillock.

We used to have dell workstations at work and they were terrible. At one point we wanted to remove the heat sink on one of the systems because it was full of dust and was overheating, doing this was made virtually impossible by the placement of the screws. I assume Dell made the computer they had access to transdimensional screwdriver that can phase through matter.

Just wrap your car in tinfoil. Bonus is that it stops the government from reading you mind while inside.

Just got a dishwasher and it doesn't even have an app. How can that be?

Why not do cars need internet access in order to start?

I understand having auxiliary services the network connected but surely the failure mode should just be an error on the screen but otherwise the car should still function. It's not like operating without internet access is dangerous or anything.

Also, why don't we just do that, cut Russias internet access, it seems like it would cause of chaos.
