Big Tech Is Incapable of Solving Its Own Problem, Says Mukunda (Bloomberg)
|
|
|
Bill Gates, the billionaire co-founder of Microsoft Corp., published a 6,000-word essay on Aug. 26 saying that he would slow the development of artificial intelligence if he could. He elaborated in an interview with the New York Times, saying “in private, people who understand how good this stuff is, and how much better it's getting, they're very worried” but few are raising the issues in public.
The public is already convinced the tech industry can't be trusted with its own creations. Some legal news last week explains why. A bipartisan coalition of 51 attorneys general announced a proposed settlement with Meta Platforms Inc. that obligates the social media company that runs Facebook and Instagram to put tight restrictions on how children use its platforms.

|
|
|
The Chinese-founded artificial intelligence start-up Manus announced on Tuesday that it had formally resumed independent operations, more than four months after Beijing blocked its US$2 billion acquisition by Meta Platforms.
The company's founding team would continue to lead Manus as an “independent agent lab”, the firm said in a blog post on its website, as it sought to move on from a months-long saga that has sent ripples through the Chinese and global technology sectors.

The law won′t save us from Meta′s ′pervert glasses′. The only solution is mockery | Jonathan Liew (The Guardian)
|
|
|
These things are undermining not just our public spaces but the very nature of being human. Let's shame them off the streetsSo far I am yet to be tempted into purchasing a pair of Ray-Ban Meta glasses. To a certain extent this is a function of possessing a large, misshapen and comically convex head upon which no pair of sunglasses has ever looked remotely appropriate. Nor am I one of those consumers who professes to be “really into gadgets”, a preference I've always found weirdly unspecific. It's subtly telling when people claim to be into “gadgets”, because they're never talking about, say, a tin opener. What they really mean is something gimmicky and expensive that almost certainly requires the services of a datacentre and enough water to irrigate Kent.And even if I were to surmount these two obstacles, you then get into the ethics of the thing. I'm nobody's idea of a PR expert, but if your shiny new product keeps requiring patches and updates to prevent people from using it to do degenera...
