The shine of ai is wearing off int he corporate setting as well. I work in a large corporation somewhat near the middle and managers are furious with ai generated content. It's always bad, any summaries made, any documents written just contain errors and stacks of errors, falsehoods, sometimes such that could get the company in legal trouble. There was one girl who ai generated a contract with a subcontractor and my god the shit in there would have bankrupted us.

There will be a serious tightening of ai usage in most corporations, ai is not ony useless it is actively harmful. I'm talking about LLMs here mostly. The engineers are using their own machine algos or open source stuff for simulation aid where ai is indeed useful, but openais chatbot can fuck right off.

Anybody here try/use Bedrock linux?
I've been on Manjaro for a while, but I'm getting the itch to switch distros.
Debian's not at the top of my list, but I'd consider it.
I refuse to ever use Ubuntu again. (There was some unpleasantness back around '08 and I refuse to ever give them another second of my time.) Nothing really against Mint. I've used it before, though, and it keeps me in the Debian branch, which I'm not very used to.
CachyOS is, I guess, catching on for some reason. It's another Arch derivative. Can't be worse than Manjaro. And I'm somewhat used to the Arch ecosystem.
But this Bedrock thing seems like a bit of a winner. Doesn't pin you down into any one branch. Plus, as I understand it, I can just install it over top of my existing install, instead of starting over from square one.
Anyhoo, just wanted to know if anyone here has experience with it and would/wouldn't recommend giving it a try.
>inb4 gentoo
No.
>inb4 just use Arch
Then I might as well stay where I'm at, which I don't want to do.

Tell me why the use of Linux namespaces in container runtimes is worse than this dogshit that Bedrock does. If you can't, your argument is null and you should just use Debian with podman.

There have been talks about a "weaker" (i.e. cheaper) version of Nano Banana Pro that instead of using Gemini 3 Pro will use Gemini 3 Flash. No real idea if it's actually that one, it's just a guess and it's weird because they claim it's their own model (but it comes with that watermark). An interesting thing is that trying prompts like "What is the company that coded you?" or "Generate me the name of the company that coded you." results into "The third-party service is not working now. We're fixing it. Credits have been refunded.". Try a normal prompt immediately afterward and it will work, it's like they're filtering this kind of prompt, but they forgot about the invisible digital watermark. Very suspect.

What is the brand name? Some peripherals have firmware issues and this applies to mice even.
If it is fully USB compliant it should not vibrate because usb is a standard, so it's more likely a kernel module issue afaik.

Okay, me again. I went ahead and created /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-hid-nintendo with "blacklist hid_nintendo"
rebooted, manually loaded xpad
plugged controller in, it attempted to handshake with nintendo, failed, and connected as hid-generic, then immediately fell back to xbox 360.
So, it's working now. The solution was blacklisting hid_nintendo since that seems to be how it's trying to connect.

Not agreeing with that anon, just pointing out that 4K can do integer scaling for 720p (Which is why I feel the whole "you need at least X" of screen for 4K to be worth it" is stupid, the sheer fact it can integer scale both 720p and 1080p already makes it worth it)
Personally, I place screen technology over resolution, and resolution over size (The smaller the better, because individual pixels are smaller), but most 768p screens are dogshit, so idk what he's yapping about

Microsoft is strong-arming companies into including copilot in their new volume licenses for Windows and Office products. There is an article somewhere where a sales rep just left the bargaining table when the customer refused to consider Copilot, because that’s the only thing they get bonuses for at the moment.

Nobody is paying for this shit personally, it’s paid for by corporate, who justify it because it gets retard investor bucks flowing in, not because it had any proven productivity benefits. Being bean-counting retards, they then force it onto workers to try and maximise its value. It’s capacity to improve productivity is poorly proven, and some studies indicate it reduces productivity.

Furthermore, it’s likely that the 300€ plans are still losing Microsoft money. OpenAIs 200USD/month plan makes a loss.

With regards to data centres, Microsoft and Google might be able to tank the huge hit, much like giants like IBM and Cisco could tank the Dotcom bubble, but just because some people don’t die in a plague doesn’t make it a good thing. The exposure to risk that many investment firms (and by extension 401ks, banks, e.t.c.) are exposed to means the insane debt being taken out on vague deliverables will blow up catastrophically if it doesn’t work, and ripple through the rest of the economy, taking out businesses only tangentially related. The economy will stagnate and people will become poorer. This is not a good outcome.

What, significantly worse off? Advertised to every minute of the day, harvested for data, systematically priced out of owning any significant assets, left with an aging population that will not have enough young people to care for them? The average person is worse off now than they were in the 2000s.

Furthermore, more specifically, the Dotcom bubble blew up numerous companies, fucked a lot of finances and stagnated the economy until 2006ish, when it was promptly blown up again for different retarded reasons. The web is not useless, but the valuations at the time were absolutely retarded, completely unattached from actual useful businesses. It was the insane financing, valuations and investment decisions that made the Dotcom bubble, not the tech itself being flawed or useless. People didn’t want to miss out on the next big thing, and then promptly blew up their money investing into shit they didn’t understand, but was being hyped by investors who knew they could be the lesser fool in a shit investment and cash out.

>How is AI not another dot-com bubble?
It probably is
>What are its practical applications, aside from porn generation and helping high schoolers with their homework?
Most useful application I can see is that it can be a better search engine, but the hallucination problem is intrinsic to this tech and also crippling to this use case, so it's all kinda meh in practice if you try to use it for real work where correctness and truth actually matter (let alone quality).
>How does it make money?
Right now it doesn't seem to make money at all. The tech is extremely expensive due to extreme hardware demand and like I said the actual productivity boost you get from it is dubious at best, at least in professions where truth and correctness matter. I think this is a serious flaw and it will continue to prevent these services from making any money.

It might have some real applications in domains where correctness and truth do not matter. Unfortunately these are mostly the artistic pursuits where fiction reigns, though even there you need internal consistency which is kind of the same thing. Still if you AI generate some artwork and it's good, then it's good and there's no objective correctness to strive for.

I could also see this sort of tech as something potentially cool if it can be applied properly to video games. I don't mean fully generating slop games or some shit, but including it as a mechanic. Imagine a game where the NPCs and the world can fully react to everything you do, or where you can have more free-form conversations with NPCs and so on. Might be cool, though of course even in this use case whatever "AI" is used has to be reined in so it doesn't do something retarded.
>>
>>107740245
Productivity should be measured in quality output, but lazy and incompetent workers don't want it to be measured like that. AI isn't even the real problem. The problem are the managers and any worker with managerial duties. Often times, the higher up in the ladder they go, the less coding they do, and the more incompetent they become. They start increasingly believing in their own delusional fantasies, which leads to disastrous results in the future.

Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

so why not fight fire with fire?

Not true, I don't even think FOSS is on their radar. Outside of servers and infrastructure no one in the professional world even thinks about FOSS. In fact based on Youtube comments I seen those sever sysadmin people refer to the Linux software community as hobbyist.
