Almacca@aussie.zoneto Technology@lemmy.world•VCs are starting to partner with private equity to buy up call centers, accounting firms and other "mature companies" to replace their operations with AIEnglish71·2 days agoI know almost nothing about finance, by choice, but isn’t that equity fund managers that do that? Regardless, I reckon it’d be pretty funny if all equity funds were made illegal by the Criminal in Chief because they have the word ‘equity’ in them.

Almacca@aussie.zoneto Technology@lemmy.world•We did the math on AI’s energy footprint. Here’s the story you haven’t heard.English3·7 days agoOh, I have zero expectation of an actual positive outcome. I don’t think the tech-bros read. Or think ahead.
God no. It’s obviously very important to you. I’m just taking the piss.
Almacca@aussie.zoneto Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft is putting AI actions into the Windows File ExplorerEnglish4·7 days agoIt’s great. Don’t bother with the sequels, though.
So downvote and move on. You’re not gonna stop it. Or keep being a nonce. Whatever.
Predictable fragile response from someone that just spent four years whining about ‘political persecution’. And yet he still roams free.
This is the 978th time I’ve seen a comment like this and I still don’t understand the point.

Here’s the story you haven’t heard.English4·7 days agoWhen I think about the potential of AI, I like to think of Iain M. Banks’ Culture more than Skynet. We could probably all live in a post-scarcity society even without AI if we put our minds into it, but let’s free ourselves of unnecessary or unwilling labour while we’re at it, eh?

Almacca@aussie.zoneto Technology@lemmy.world•We did the math on AI’s energy footprint. Here’s the story you haven’t heard.English2·7 days agoFair point, but i feel like that’s something that’s technologically solvable, and this is dealing only with text, a lot of which is already digital, just in multiple formats, and all easily checkable against the final figures if anyone so desires.

Reading and recognising random receipts, bank statements, payment slips, and whatever and sorting it into a coherent format is what I’m trying to avoid.

I did that with drugs and alcohol long before AI had a chance.
