  • A sexual predator used online games and ChatGPT to groom young boys

  • I don't think that's the point they are making. What they are saying is this type of crime is becoming more successful with the help of AI, not that the perpetrator couldn't have done it without AI.

    Same as with phone scams. They are becoming more successful all the time with the help of AI because of its ability to emulate human conversation, voice match, etc.

  • While I am curious about where the parents were, I also recognize that even if they knew their kid was playing video games with randoms on the internet, it's still unlikely that the parents would have the skills to differentiate the other kids on the server playing from the random adult with nefarious intentions.

    This seems like a failing of parents to use parental controls and also make themselves aware of the dangers and safeguards altogether.

    I suspect the parents were working. A lot of poor parents often are working when their kids get involved in things they shouldn't.

    Millions of students' personal data stolen in major education breach

    Jump

  • I was able to change my SSN but it was a process to say the least. The federal government leaked my info and the info of 21.5 million other military members and government employees in 2015. Combined with everything else that's out there from other data breaches it was basically the only thing I could do that didn't involve changing my name or buying a new Identity.

  • Google Chrome is reportedly auto-installing a massive 4GB AI model without your consent

    Jump

  • You asked a question. I answered the question. I don't know what people expect these days but I expect programs to download what I tell them to when I tell them to and not suddenly decide to download things I don't tell them to. Back in the day we called programs that download things without the users consent viruses.

    Especially if it redownloads and reinstalls itself after the user removes it. Doesn't matter what company it comes from that's not how things are supposed to work (MS does this same type of crap with copilot and that's also insane).

  • On android phones I believe this is called Gemini Nano which is part of the Gemini app for Android and the android AIcore app. The AI core app supposedly eats up like 4-12GB of storage. I believe it's a system app that you can't uninstall.

    Might be worth a look at your phone apps especially if you have a pixel phone.

  • It downloads the 4GB local model and then doesn't use it. Instead chrome LLM usage is routed through their online LLM service instead.

    Chrome’s most recent release, version 147, now includes an AI Mode pill in the omnibox, however, this routes queries to cloud-based AI servers. The local model is not used by that AI, instead it powers features like “Help me write”.

  • Only business that would require an ID/Age Verification check, but yeah. Except they don't want to hold actual websites liable. They want to hold ISP's liable.

    There's literally no way to know if the people using the VPN's are located in Utah. So this law would be unenforceable against actual websites.

    It might possibly be enforceable against ISP's but the problem is, once you fire up a VPN your ISP can only see your entry point and maybe that there is a volume of traffic going to and from your device. They can't see what websites you visit (provided your VPN is properly configured).

    I also don't understand how this bill could effectively lay any blame against the websites for knowing you use a VPN because they also can't see any of that information. They know that you visited and from a specific IP "located" in "place" and they can either assume that the use of a VPN means you're in Utah (very unlikely), or they can assume you're not (more likely given the population that lives outside Utah).

  • Confessions of a Millennial in Tech - by Elena Verna

    Jump

  • I think what it does (my take from the outside looking in) is rob people of context. Sometimes that context is extremely important and without it even the best answers can cause flaws and failures.

    The one good thing about going to a website and reading an article is that you get context that helps you understand the concept not just the answer you were looking for.

    The context is how we learn. It's how we build on basic understanding. It's also how we vet information for factualness.

    I believe this is why people see a decline in their skillset when they use AI LLM'S in place of their own skills. Every time you use a skill you refine it. Don't use it and in a lot of cases you will lose it.

    Connecticut lawmakers approve bill for cell phone ban in schools — but critics argue that having different rules for adults and students is ‘not good role modeling at all’

    Jump

  • I took the headline to mean the critics of the law were saying they don't want teachers to be allowed to have cell phones on the job. I wonder if a lot of the commenters here took it the exact opposite way (teachers and students should be allowed to have cell phones, rather than teachers and students should both be banned from having cell phones in schools).

    I think that may be where the crisscross is.
