It most certainly isn't astrology that was on Google's mind when they decided for Gemini.

Made me curious enough to look it up...

> 100k deaths in Europe that can be prevented if they lifted restrictions on AC

Please don’t repeat this anti-Europe myth. Anyone applying a bit of common sense should realize how improbable that claim is.

It has always been like this.

Plan before you code. Now your plan is just in a prompt.

Calling this a "Protip" is generous.

That the combined element has any surface area that doesn't toggle the radio setting is a straight-up bug.

It is laughable for a component this heavily refined to have such a basic usability flaw.

I'm thinking protip was sarcasm :)

Their point may be about viewing distance.

If the edges of the screen are further from your eyes than the center, the content and text doesn't appear at the same size. If you wear glasses, the edges might even fall out of focus unless you physically move closer.

This is an interesting claim.

How many is plenty and what are the sources to back this?

It's basically a failure of setting up the proper response playbook.

Instead of:

1. AI detects gun on surveillance

2. Dispatch armed police to location

It should be:

1. AI detects gun on surveillance

2. Human reviews the pictures and verifies the threat

3. Dispatch armed police to location

I think the latter version is likely what already took place in this incident, and it was actually a human that also mistook a bag of Doritos for a gun. But that version of the story is not as interesting, I guess.

What's the point of saving money if it's a risk to reputation?

Will smith punched a dude on stage, a comedian. I think you are putting a lot on a cage concept with a scatter plot of outliers.

You actually need a reputation of merit for there to be risk. Hes a rapper, not a saint or Ethicist.

Is there more to it, or are we calling the situation out of control based on a single anecdote from Reddit?

You need to read more of the source blog - he's been pretty pro LLM, but is now acknowledging where it's going too far.

I'm not new to simonw.

It doesn't change that this is just a quote from a reddit post and a link to it.

With per-per-minute sharing cars having existed in many cities in Europe 10+ years, this concept is not new.

People will adapt to the level of cleanliness in the car the get into, so it's a slippery slope. Users will behave respectfully in the early days (maybe because they are first-movers), and then it deteriorates long term.

My own experience is that people used to not even leave an empty soda bottle in the cars and now I see remains from take-out in the floor, coffee cups, chewing gum left around the dashboard etc. You can report this to the car service, but they won't be able to take any meaningful action on it.
