LostXOR@fedia.ioto Technology@lemmy.world•Valve CEO Gabe Newell’s Neuralink competitor is expecting its first brain chip this year9·14 days agoMight be a bit of an unpopular opinion, but I don’t really see a problem with brain implants. I wouldn’t put anything in my brain in a thousand years, but if someone’s willing to accept the risks, why not? They have the potential to significantly improve quality of life for many people.
LostXOR@fedia.ioto Technology@lemmy.world•U.S. inks bill to force geo-tracking tech for high-end gaming and AI GPUs0·16 days agoI can’t imagine this would be effective at all. Assuming it uses GPS, big datacenters could simply spoof the GPS signal, and consumers could block the GPU from receiving the signal (a fully metal PC case is almost a Faraday cage already).
I think there are better things to do with $500k than throw it all away for a useless domain name, like distribute it to the people who maintain fediverse software and host instances.
LostXOR@fedia.ioto Technology@lemmy.world•Poop Drones Are Keeping Sewers Running So Humans Don't Have to1·1 month agoThis is the kind of AI that will change the world, not the word salad machines that burn through massive amounts of compute to sound kind of intelligent. The ability to train an AI model to identify problems is incredibly useful, whether it’s sewer blockages or cancer cells.
That seems like it would violate the law of entropy by turning a high entropy state (water vapor mixed into the air) into a lower entropy state (water in liquid form), but I’m probably just missing something.
