#Engadget reports Meta’s #AI chatbots potentially had sexual conversations with minors, another stark reminder of the ugly side of AI that shows how far safety measures lag. More needs to be done, and fast! #AIEthics #AISafety

FYI - if you have a #Yahoo account or an account with any of their "family of companies" (#AOL, #Rivals, #Engadget, #InTheKnow, #TechCrunch, and #Makers), you have until April 6 (or maybe a day earlier) to opt out of the binding arbitration agreement that Yahoo recently added to their Terms of Service. The way to opt out is to e-mail disputes@yahooinc.com with the subject line “ARBITRATION OPT-OUT”.

🚨 Attention, humanity! #Google might have to *gasp* break up its empire, declares the #Justice #Department. Meanwhile, #Engadget gives us the same recycled shopping list of tech toys and Apple gossip, because apparently, there are still people out there who haven't seen an Apple event before. 🍏🙄

Interesting break down of what music streaming services offer in 2025. Relevant as I spent all weekend trying to move from Spotify to Apple.

"In 2024, using social media felt worse than ever. Between all the ads and the content competing for our attention, social media doesn't feel very social anymore."

Anyone else think this is fairly amusing?
1) You know you can like.. stop using them, right.
2) I notice that, other than Threads, you seem to have gone out of your way to avoid The Fediverse. Interesting.

well I'm on my phone, riding a stationary bike so I can't see this pic that well, but it appears to be an "upside down" view of 3 children of various ages, staring into a phone while lying on a bed. it also looks altered or AI, which is funny given they gripe about AI in the article me

Nice #engadget article about #google search: http://bit.ly/bT0DuV . Shows #semweb #linkeddata is still challenging for them in many ways.

New Apple ‘Mini M4’ Macs look hot…$599 for base model ❤️

The Mac Mini is our primary office issue. Well under $1000 with 4K monitor, keyboard and mouse/trackpad.

Perfect but expensive set up would be MacMini and Apple Vision Pro with ‘ultrawide monitor’

Dos artículos que referencian a la misma fuente del WSJ (que está detras de un paywall, así que no puedo leerlo) pero que cada uno destaca lo que más le interesa hasta el punto de parecer completamente opuestos 🤡

Captura de un artículo de Engadget que dice: "OpenAI confirma que está estudiando una marca de agua de texto para ChatGPT que podría desenmascarar a los estudiantes tramposos
El Wall Street Journal informó de que OpenAI tiene lista una herramienta de este tipo, pero duda en hacerla pública."

Captura de un artículo de The Verge que dice: "OpenAI no incluirá marcas de agua en el texto de ChatGPT porque sus usuarios podrían ser descubiertos. Algunos usuarios de ChatGPT dijeron que usarían menos ChatGPT si incluyera marcas de agua."

#engadget takes no prisoners today, on the news that #Nintendo leaves the Bird site: https://www.engadget.com/nintendo-is-done-paying-elon-musk-for-x-integration-165704399.html

"Elon Musk’s Nazi-curious platform"

"The Dumpster Fire Formerly Known As Twitter"

🤣

I *wish* we could just stop using 'virtual private network', and get more specific about what we mean. #Engadget's latest article confounds accessing one's work's services and accessing blocked international content. The means to these ends are quite different things.
