Google will do an uno reverse on the EU

If Apple's store isn't illegal then they will switch to their model. Android will lock out alternative stores completely in response.

They'll probably rename Android to something else and say its a new, more secure OS.


There have always been employees who are just helpless.

It's great because we as parents can give our kids a huge boost by guiding them to learn on their own. Look up 'learned helplessness'

The last part is making sure we teach our kids never to work for less than twice as much as everyone else.


You kinda opted in for that as an Apple user.


Guess me using every ""racist"" word possible didnt catch on as funny as i hoped.


Huh?


Listened to a Lex Fridman podcast and wrote an article on it. Nice.


Yes - the Elon Musk one!


4,300km of subsea cable...

I'm must completely be missing something. We can't get renewables into our own grid let alone over the hemisphere.

https://reneweconomy.com.au/nem-watch/


It's vastly more simple to run one cable through the ocean than run heaps of high voltage lines between all the remote renewable generation sites and the consumers. Even with the solar built into a suburb, you need to built much thicker connections to transfer it to other consumers than what you do in the old generation system. Distributed grids are complicated.


Simple, people found out the reactors get retired after 50 years and its an absolute shit show. Totally not worth it.

Then there's the unforgiving accidents.



It's not like it was ever going to even if it wanted.

Smart marketing move.


iOS allows AI generators in the app store, and Procreate is a very successful and actively developed app.

They absolutely could. They are choosing not to.


You'd think it would too since apple openly advertises how good the newer hardware is at AI. No idea where the above user got the idea that they had no ability to do that.


Apple can advertise whatever they like.

Not that it'll change any iSheep minds but it takes around 30 seconds to generate an image on the best iOS hardware and blows through battery.

So they would have to do an online implementation like every other shitty AI app.


And... how exactly would that prevent them from doing so?


Other than being a crap experience Apple would likely reject the app update under the app responsiveness, performance and resource usage guidelines.


Uh huh. Just like all the other apps doing exactly that, many of which have many more installs than Procreate.

I'm not sure where you're getting the idea that Apple doesn't allow this. There's overwhelming evidence that they do.


Name one.


Let's go with the elephant in the room: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/chatgpt/id6448311069


That's not a local model. Congrats now it doesn't work offline and burns money like Pablo Escobar's final days.


AI wouldn't help their app in the slightest. Taking an anti "AI" stance aligns with their business. It's a perfectly rational decision. Now, that doesn't take anything away from being a heartfelt decision, too.


Lots of paint software has been adding AI. So why wouldn't Procreate in particular?


Not everyone in the industry is an NPC chasing the Current Thing.


Bold of you to assume hating AI isn't the "Current Thing" among online artists.

Blind decisionmaking is bad. It's perfectly fine if Procreate devs don't want to add AI features. I simply find it distasteful to present it as a moral position (as people are wont to do with so many things nowadays) or groundbreaking perspective. It's a preference - which should be respected - but just a preference.


It would be "just a preference" if there were no external impacts from making that decision.

But there are. And they're quite large. That's why it's so contentious, and why people directly impacted by it take issue with it.


Because differentiation makes sense, and there are many people out there who hate AI.


Kinda rare these days with ChatGPT


You might be surprised. Many students who use ChatGPT for assignments end up turning in code identical (or nearly identical) to other students who use ChatGPT.


Surprising because you get different answers each time you ask ChatGPT.


Different in an exact string match but code that is copied and pasted from ChatGPT has a lot of similarities in the way that it is (over) commented. I've seen a lot of Python where the student who "authored" it cannot tell me how a method works or why it was implemented despite having the comments prefixed to every line in the file.


> (over) commented

From my experience using ChatGPT, It usually remove most of my already written comments when I ask questions about code I wrote myself. It usually give you outline comments. So unless you are supporter of the self documented code idea, I don't think ChatGPT over comments.


It's obviously down to taste, but what I've seen over and over is a comment per line which to me is excessive outside it being requested of absolute beginners.

That happens and also the model can't decide if it wants the comment on the line before the code or if everything should be appended to the line itself so when I see both styles within a single project it's another signal. People generally have a style that they stick with.


Ah yes, good old "Did you even read the essay before handing it in? Next time, please do."


ChatGPT answers don't differ that much without being prompted to do so


yeah but the prompt itself generally adds sufficient randomness to avoid the same verbatim answer each time.

as an example just go ask it to write any sufficiently average function. use different names and phrases for what the function should do; you'll generally get a different flavor of answer each time, even if the functions all output the same thing.

sometimes the prompt even forces the thing to output the most naive implementation possible due to the ordering or perceived priority of things within the requesting prompt.

it's fun to use as a tool to nudge it into what you want once you get the hang of the preconceptions it falls into.


MOSS seems to be pretty good finding multiple people using LLM-generated code and flagging them as copies of each other. I imagine it would also be a good idea to throw the assignment text into the few most popular LLMs and feed that in as well, but I don't know of anyone who has tried this.


FWIW the attack we describe in the paper works against MOSS, too (that was the original inspiration for the name, “Mossad”).


Can creators disable payment or delist from Apple users?
