on AI staff 'genuinely frightened' for humanity's future, ex-Anthropic researcher tells BBC in c/technology@lemmy.world · 4d ago
It was more of managing all tasks at a McDonald’s. Where the kitchen part has been engineered to almost run itself anyway.
The manna was there to make sure the employees were constantly cleaning the bathrooms, managing restocking, emptying the trash as needed. All ahead of it being a problem.
It’s a good read, though it’s been a very long time since I read it. I wish I could buy my son stock in Australia (or probably Norway or Switzerland or something in reality).

Not if you still have a 1080p dumb TV from 10-12 years ago (I forget exactly its so old).

on South Korea gives 400 stalking victims app to track their stalkers in real time in c/technology@lemmy.world · 15 Sep 2026
The app’s effectiveness depends on courts ordering suspects to wear electronic tags, something that remains relatively rare in South Korean stalking cases.
Police arrested 29,404 people on stalking charges across 2024 and 2025. Authorities made 1,187 applications for electronic monitoring during that period, but courts approved only 427.
Seems courts are taking the power seriously for the accused.

Money grubbing is the correct term.
Money grabbing is a slightly bone apple tea thing.

Opened is probably meant to be owned.
And accounting is probably supposed to be acute.

on Time for a new course in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev · 12 Sep 2026
There’s jobs that will put you through apprenticeships as part of the first 2 years of employment. You do the course work at night (which should be pretty easy if you’ve already trained as a software engineer).

My anti-theist brother was always convinced that Pastafarianism would eventually be taken as a serious religion.
He died before LLMs, and now I think we’d be best off if he was right.

I have never once and never will talk to my remote control. So this one’s a no brainer. Gonna do my father in laws (rented) comcast remote next.

on Your LG TV Might Be Spying on Your Entire Network While You Think It's Turned Off in c/technology@lemmy.world · 9 Sep 2026
I’m not sure if LG connects to it, but it’s an open standard and like LoRa, has a decent range, so there doesn’t seem to be anything stopping them from adding it to their TVs.
Plus from the article:
It also picks up the SSIDs and signal strengths of neighboring Wi-Fi networks visible to its wireless radio, building a rough map of the surrounding area, and includes location data tied to those network identifiers in what it collects.
This is active scanning, not passive listening: the television initiates the queries, processes the responses, and packages the results into structured data. The researchers confirmed the behavior happens out of the box, with no extra configuration needed, and found no setting that disables the LAN sweep on its own, separate from other smart features.
It doesn’t mention connecting automatically to unsecured networks, but it sounds like one OTA update away from that capability (The sidewalk network works this way, which is why I mentioned it). LG is already lying about the transcriptions taking place, so there’s no reason to trust them, which I think the point of this thread was.

Look for articles about amazons sidewalk network and devices that connect to it without any kind of authorization from users.
That shit has been around since the echo came out and it’s open to any manufacturer.
There’s are lots of articles but my phone is too slow to load them at the moment.

The 5-4 and Strict Scrutiny podcasts are fucking infuriating to listen to. The hypocrisy and self contradiction in Supreme Court and some circuit court decisions is insane.
They’re going to figure it out and go back to sounding like modems, and saves the spare tokens to plot our demise.
