  • No AI service is ethical, btw. You are cooking your brain, and support systems that make the world worse in the process.

  • European alternative to Teams and Zoom

    Jump

  • The tool is called OpenTalk.

    It's a product of Heinlein like mailbox, but it is apparently open source!

    (I have no experience with using or hosting it myself, though.)

  • PwC CEO survey reports no business advantage from of AI investment for the majority

    Jump

  • I wouldn't say "turned against". The summary from PwC gives the numbers, but still frames it as a challenge to overcome. And wouldn't you know who can sell you the expertise on how to make AI work in enterprise...

  • Just plugged the RSS into my app (Feeder) and it worked like charm.

    Beautiful stuff, mate! Feels otherworldly.

  • The AI ethics people are gonne get Microsoft then, for making AI agents interact with their horrible OS.

  • Danes is actually an archaic plural of Dan that was used in some germanic dialects at the time.

  • Art student protests other student’s AI ‘art’: he eats it

  • He should have put the printouts on display post-digestion, thus turning himself into a provocative parody of GenAI.

  • I was looking into a public sector job opening, running clouds for schools, and just found out that my state recently launched a chatbot for schools. But it's made in EU and safe and stuff! (It's an on-premise GPT-5)

  • I suppose you can go for a Jolla, if you're willing to bet that SailfishOS will finally work. I'll let y'all know in a year or so.

  • Instander will stop working..

  • FediLab is an explicitly general Fediverse app, though it's not designed for lemmy. There's also plenty of native cross-fedi support, as all activities are translated into ActivityPub events.

    Frankly I'd recommend a separate app for Lemmy-likes and Mastodon-likes. The difference between following communities and following accounts seems to result in a lot of jank, if crammed into one app.

  • I'm gonna leave here my idea, that an essential aspect of why GenAI is bad is that it is designed to extrude media that fits common human communication channels. This makes it perfect to choke out human-to-human communication over those channels, preventing knowledge exchange and social connection.

  • So, Copilot for VSCode apparently got hit with an 8.8 CVE in November for, well, doing Copilot stuff. (RCE if you clone a strange repo and promptfondle it.)

    Fixes were allegedly released on Nov 12th, but I can't find anything in the Changelog on what those changes were, and how they would prevent Copilot from doing, well, Copilot stuff. (Although I may not be ITSec-savvy enough to know where such information would be found.)
