@evan I would have said "platforms" I think.

Opened another 500 TestFlight slots for the new Reeder preview (see previous posts). There's still a lot to do but it's slowly getting to a usable state.

The funny thing about Microsoft's new Recall feature is how little actual "AI" it's doing. It's basically just making automatic screen captures, then running OCR and image recognition to create a semantic index you can search. Unless I'm missing something, there's no LLM (or small language model) used in it. Maybe in parsing queries?

@ianbetteridge Yep. "Just say it's AI" is the marketing strategy these days.

Trump: I want to bring about a unified Reich

Media: Is Trump being fascist? We're not sure!

Frustrated Trump: I'm a literal
nazi and Hitler had great ideas. C'mon!

Media: Trump is so silly. Who knows what's going on his head. Also y'all hear Kamala used a naughty word?

Trump: Turns even more orange somehow

Soooo, while I still spend time here on Mastodon, I'm spending more time these days on Bluesky. But, with Bridgy Fed, there is now a bridge of my posts on Bluesky that can appear here as well, for folks interested in hearing me blather on over there...

Now, everyone is so furious about OpenAI stealing a beloved celebrity's voice. But what about the many artists, writers/authors, and creators whose copyrighted works OpenAI stole to create works resembling and replacing those people's products? Not famous enough to generate the same outrage, right? At least now, everyone knows how bad Sam Altman is. He thinks he is above the law. I'm glad someone is standing up to this bully and I hope something good come out of it.

@sass@mastodon.social avatar

@nixCraft I don't think theres more "outrage" here. Just more hope that this could mean consequences of some kind for OpenAI. But I'm a dreamer...

@funnelfiasco @mikemcquaid Normally I possess the "constantly online-iness" to win such races but I was several hundred toots behind in my timeline since I decided to go to the gym and then scroll through card magic instagram reels all last night 😅
