Technology@lemmy.world•Chinese hackers are running AI on stolen networks to avoid detection, Google saysEnglish
33·11 days agoMy hijacked smart fridge is running a deepseek instance and keeps doing wolf warrior diplomacy from my kitchen by sending mean tweets to western diplomats and commentators who questioned one China policy.

9120·11 days agoThe local ‘OF stardom’ won’t register, or will just move abroad. The practice of their craft is not bound to any single location.
Ukraine is not a serious country, nor are it’s leaders serious people.

Technology@lemmy.world•US government sides with OpenAI on issue of training LLMs on copyrighted material: »it is critical for the United States to ‘retain global leadership in artificial intelligence.«English
22·17 days agoNo, just another example that laws are for peyon proletarian poorfags. To the actual citizenry (large corporations) they are more of a suggestion or a guideline. US federal government just works to shaft the media and copyright holder megacorps in favour of the Ai megacorps, because rn the needs of AI megacorps are seens as more critical to the wider global future prospects of the community of corporate entities and global capital, which the American government represents.

Technology@lemmy.world•Sharp rise in incidents of AI escaping users’ control, analysis showsEnglish
12·18 days agoJesus. Every “Our autocorrect escaped it’s sandbox and is gonna go skynet any second now” Is just scaremongering. Every time the tech CEOs go “we are looking into this. Oh and we can’t relase our next model to the public because it’s too powerful, and we need governmental limits on training.” Why on earth would a CEO of for profit company say that, if they finally are that close to their mythical AGI that could make them trillions?
The truth is that have hit a wall, they hit a wall years ago in training and inference and most AI progress has been just better harnesses and other auxiliary software and they are just bleeding money for every small gain that they make with training. They just can’t admit to that, so they need the Uncle Sam to play the villain and “stop them or at least slow them from winning too much” so they have an excuse to not deliver what they know that they cannot. So they pull off these “our AI escaped it’s sandbox, and caused virulent flame war on r/Europe and then proceeded to short some Kazakhstani corn futures. We barely stopped it when it was gnawing at Pentagon firewalls.” type of stunts. If a single company says that they are slowing down development for safety (to stop bleeding money before it’s too late) then their jig is up, they lose investors and go belly up with their debts in months. However if the whole field is frozen with a government mandate from on high, then the companies can stop bleeding money collectively. Maybe then the field and US economy can be saved from the AI bubble.

Linux@lemmy.ml•How to get windows to not do disk checking or ruin my bootloader when i add a linux partition on the same disk?
3·21 days agoset up a second efi boot partition.
I have had a bad history with this. The windows partion constantly (noticed the competition and) overwrote the bootloader when it updated. With separate drives for both OS I no longer have this problem.
What does that even mean. Whoever said that just uttered some empty but smart sounding catch phrase. Such is all the talk about the wonders of Ai

Technology@lemmy.world•Micron locks in historically high memory prices for five yearsEnglish
9·3 months agoDoes it go something like this? Those companies who buy the NAND chips to make AI accelerators, SSDs and RAM for data centers are the Microns customers, like Nvidia. Even if they are in trouble and know that the datacenters are not being built, they can’t cancel the deals because that would call the bubble into question. They will have to take any markup deal that Micron gives, them because if they don’t there will be nothing for them nor Micron anyway.

Technology@lemmy.world•Micron locks in historically high memory prices for five yearsEnglish
141·3 months agoabsolutely loves the idea of everyone’s computer usage going thru giant corporations because the Chinese government owns part of every Chinese company and doesn’t need a backdoor since they have a set of keys.
We are still taking about NAND chips. Can you backdoor those? I would think you need to backdoor the controllers or smth at least.
Is it even a debate at this point? x11 is on it’s way out and wayland transition is pretty much complete within the gnu/linux ecosystem. Vast majority of distros and desktop environments ship with wayland as the default and keep developing with wayland in mind, with holdouts like debian and mint that still use x11, I think. X11 is basically dinosaur software for legacy. Vast majority of end users will just take what is the default and that is Wayland and they don’t even notice.
I don’t say it’s impossible. It’s just not worth it 90% of the people, especially for beginners.
Never self host email. It’s way too much of a pain.

Technology@lemmy.world•32GB of DDR5 now costs $375 minimum — AI shortage continues to squeeze PC buildingEnglish
50·4 months agoGaming is just going to become a hobby for the rich at this rate.
Well in global terms, PC gaming pretty much has been that since forever.
There is no way we can keep up with this.
Reject the AAA slop and you’ll be good. It’s not like anything good comes from them anyway and all their “innovation” is just fancier graphics and physics without any real gameplay, content or story, mainly to justify the overpriced next gen Nvidia card.

1·7 months agoThey mostly do that because they want control and maybe slowly reach their tentacles into projects. Like Chromium and Android are in theory open source, but in practice both are locked down by google and used for their business and mass data harvesting and advertising empire.
