Yeah my MacBook is a workhorse, the kind of absurd one that actually does need to not be a tablet, but the MacBook Air and an iPad with a magic keyboard are only different in exceptionally arbitrary ways (and the iPad would be way more convenient with its touch screen, pencil support and modularity).
I use my iPad with a keyboard/touchpad as my primary fuck-around-the-house computer streaming my windows pc and MacBook, there’s obviously no reason an iPad couldn’t be running those OSes natively. That said I don’t really need for iPad os to be more in the way
Because they’re fucking terrible at designing tools to solve problems, they are obviously less and less good at pretending this is an omnitool that can do everything with perfect coherency (and if it isn’t working right it’s because you’re not believing or paying hard enough)
Yeah that’s kinda what I mean, I happened to learn coding (the old fashioned way) riiight before all the AI started happening. It was definitely helpful for me as a new learner but at this point I almost never use it (because I’m making things I want to make and not boilerplate). I see systems that make entire React sites, which is great, and also kind of mundane (since it’s making the millionth-plus react sites on the internet), but if you put a semicolon in the wrong place in a React app the whole thing breaks. What is someone who doesn’t know code, have any desire to learn code and doesn’t have any interest in debugging code supposed to do with a broken pile of react?
AI art doesn’t save any time, it’s just a different way of making mostly mediocre stuff; AI coding doesn’t save any time, it’s just aw different way of pulling boilerplate code and what would have been time spent searching.
“I was just living paycheck to paycheck” won’t be a valid defense either :P
Yup, I’d never hire anyone I ever got a whiff was involved with this.
You asked, and the author of the article asked, by proxy “buhwhy no one mad at apple for same thing” and I’m saying they weren’t the same thing. Apple deserves distinctly different shit. It’s not only my “characterization,” it accords with reality, and is why the author and you don’t see people as mad at apple for doing a different, differently shitty thing.
it’s also funny how you can tilt an average lemmy user by somehow saying bad shit about MS and Apple at the same time, I guess
Apple dropped a whole lot of vague shit that they “promised” would have some sort of holistic and on-device/private benefit to users if they pulled a full data profile of you together, kept it on-device, kept it secure, etc, etc.
Windows stealthed an update onto PCs that suddenly started capturing and processing unsecured screenshots of everything that users were doing without ever telling anyone why or what it’s for or how it would work. People found out that it was unsecured by looking in its unsecured folder. It wasn’t the same thing.
That said, obviously, Apple Intelligence is bullshit and doesn’t work or do anything of any use other than making Siri slightly prettier.
that’s because “Apple Intelligence” is nearly 100% vaporware
Yeah I’ve never heard professional truck drivers talk about their trucks like they were an extension of their dicks. Never.
you’re kidding me? Someone can prefer driving electric? but what about if they’ve got their whole personality wrapped up in how loud they can make their big truck?
Literally been carrying that all my life, too. It definitely doesn’t seem like most people took that message away from the game.
Trump always chickens out because he takes the most extreme and worst negotiating tactics possible. He consistently chickens out because he consistently chooses to use the same idiotic strategy.
I can definitely see schnauzer in his eyes/face structure. Nice little dude you have there!
OK I propose any author who writes about an AI like it has thoughts should be immediately replaced with an AI. Time to sweep this shit out.
It is “not possible to meet with the number of people that want to see us” in the way that it is “not possible to meet with” 0 people, I guess.
Sigh. So, he used Photoshop? How long are we gonna keep doing this breathless “OMG an AI was used in this graphic design application!!!” shit? It’s exhausting. People are going to use AI in graphic applications because it’s really hard to avoid and it’s semi-useful at times. People will also be bad at it for a while, then they’ll get better. fucks sake.
Yeah this would still hit 100% of ads that have happened before now. And all linear tv ads on streams. Seriously willing to build it if anyone wants to work on it with me. Pm me
Every military parade is a sad display of nonsense, the fact that anyone would think it’s a good idea is like thinking hitler had some innovative ideas about facial hair. dumb.
