(Headline article below) Is the digital ID of the future going to be your face? If you fly, they’re already trying to coerce you into participating in facial identification, but an interesting bit for Instagram is reading faces to establish…
“AI” is trash. It’s been overhyped, and they feed it a lot of media that is trash and propaganda to begin with. I wish I had the link, but there was a guy that asked a large language model if…
The newer technology is going much farther than what was predicted in the book 1984. Best to not let it connect to the internet and use something else for streaming. Though, I’d be suspicious they’d hide the ability to use…
