San Francisco’s AI boom can’t stop real estate slide, as office vacancies reach new record

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/07/08/san-franciscos-real-estate-slide-continues-as-office-vacancies-peak.html

No business is ever safe, probably saying 30 years ago you wouldn't be able to rent your office building space in a prime location was crazy. I guess another paradigm shift.

That city is a train wreck.

They are driving a lot of business out.

New York Times Co. fights OpenAI’s request for reporters’ source materials in copyright dispute

https://www.geekwire.com/2024/new-york-times-co-fights-openais-request-for-reporters-source-materials-in-copyright-dispute/

This is a very interesting battle. From what I read, how the AI produces the output, these media is going to have a tough time winning a copyright case. They are not actually copying the content.

We'll see what the court says :)

There will be many court battles I am sure. Hell it seems like everyone is stepping into the legal game there.

That is a way to quickly add to the data that is available for collection and training.

It indeed is.

Can't forget the Bionic Woman #technology

No.

I bet if we could build a bionic vagina, it would sell like hotcakes. There is a $100 billion idea.

Bringing some #technology nostalgia. This show started when I was in the sixth grade. The Six Million Dollar Man. Wonder how much he would be in today's dollars.

Did you have a crush on Lee?

A lot of girls did.

Totally! He still looks good now.

LOL I havent seen him in decades. He would be well into his 80s.

BTW, remember the show Quincy, the one who played Sam, Robert Ito, is still alive.

He is in his 90s.

A lot. Sci Fi tends to lead to reality in many instances. We have people with bionic limbs now.

They will only get better over time.

Cyborg time. LOL

Robocop comes to mind. That is one of Roy's faves. The original one with Peter Weller

Yes. I saw him after all the years in Sons of Anarchy.

He was missing for a few decades. LOL

Kind of like Christopher Walken.

Even though I dont play them, gaming is a huge market. We are also, I believe, going to see convergence between gaming and other industries. Much like we will see social media and finance blending, gaming is going to be everywhere.

Well, it already is everywhere. You just need to try a bit hard to spot it sometimes ;)

Wired magazine is a terrific publication with a lot of good stuff.

Yep, I like to browse it.

Hackernoon can be another good one to skim through.

You need to learn AI in 2024! (And here is your roadmap)

Do you find these types of videos helpful?

Are you specifically asking about this video or the others as well?

If this is specific, I really think I made a mistake. I had left this video in a window and didn't analyze it well.

And since it's in English and just these two guys speaking, I didn't have a more in-depth analysis.

My sincere apologies.

But generally speaking, some videos I found, mainly from Brazil, have some very interesting information to add to the threadcast.

The concept of the "dead internet" is an idea that suggests the internet, as we know it today, will eventually become inaccessible or unusable due to various factors such as technological advancements, economic changes, political decisions, and natural disasters. This could lead to the collapse of the current internet infrastructure and the loss of all digital information and services.

One of the primary reasons for the potential death of the internet is the increasing centralization of data storage and computing resources. Most internet services, including social media, cloud storage, and online applications, are hosted on a small number of large servers located in specific geographic regions. This centralized infrastructure makes it vulnerable to natural disasters, power outages, and cyberattacks that could take down the entire system.

#technology #internet

Excellent use case for the threadcast. Keep giving more stuff like this.

Yes, it is an added value in our learning.

#hivebr

Task, I was called to war. So I'll have to fill my comments with #hivebr. LOL

Our community is a week behind, but we will be able to make up for lost time.

Additionally, the increasing reliance on proprietary technologies and closed ecosystems, such as cloud computing and social media platforms, creates a dependency on these companies for the functioning of the internet. If these companies were to shut down or change their policies, the internet as we know it could be severely impacted.

Another factor contributing to the "dead internet" theory is the ongoing debate around net neutrality. Net neutrality refers to the principle that internet service providers (ISPs) should treat all internet traffic equally, without prioritizing certain content or services. The repeal of net neutrality laws in some countries has raised concerns about ISPs controlling the flow of information and potentially blocking or throttling certain websites or services.

Lastly, the rapid evolution of technology, particularly in the areas of artificial intelligence and quantum computing, could lead to the development of new systems that render the current internet obsolete. For example, quantum computing could enable the creation of highly secure, decentralized networks that could replace the current internet infrastructure.

In conclusion, the "dead internet" theory is based on a variety of factors that could potentially lead to the collapse of the current internet infrastructure. While this may seem like a distant possibility, it's essential to remain aware of these risks and work towards creating a more resilient and decentralized internet for the future.

Amazon now has over 750,000 robots deployed

Byway is using AI to help travelers slow down and take the scenic route
Solo founder Cat Jones took the plunge on setting up a travel business right around the time the pandemic was hitting Europe in March 2020.

Solo founder Cat Jones took the plunge on setting up a travel business right around the time the pandemic was hitting Europe in March 2020. Fast forward to summer 2024 and her curated package tour business, Byway, is announcing close of an oversubscribed £5.04 million Series A round (around $6.4M at current exchange rates).

Jones’ conviction that slow and more sustainable travel — trips whose unique selling point is they’re programmed to be flight-free, going overland (and sea) by train, bus or ferry, allowing holidaymakers to take in the scenery and dodge the crowds as they unwind in more off-the-beaten-track locations — is on a roll. Growth has been 3x year-on-year, she tells TechCrunch, with more than 4,200 trips sold to date.

We knew this would be coming.

Lucid Motors sets new record for EV deliveries as it seeks 'escape velocity'
These efforts have come as Lucid is looking to start building its Gravity SUV by the end of this year.

When transmission lines fell, 16 Nissan Leafs show how EVs can provide the backup Australia needs

Electric vehicles are an increasingly common sight on Australian roads. Each one cuts carbon emissions by half compared to fossil fuel vehicles, but increases household electricity use by 50%.

This extra electricity demand could be a major strain on the grid unless the charging of vehicles is coordinated. But the large batteries in electric vehicles could also be enlisted to discharge power to the power grid when needed. The average electric vehicle battery stores more than two days worth of household electricity, so this could have a big effect.

This is crazy... Some student must have done something quite absurd when the school decided to determine a situation like this.

It would be comical if it were not tragic.

LOL @lisamgentile1961 You were discussing bionics? Look at this.

The Best Bionic Leg Yet A surgical procedure and muscle-sensing electrodes allow neural control of a prosthetic limb

For the first time, a small group of patients with amputations below the knee were able to control the movements of their prosthetic legs through neural signals—rather than relying on programmed cycles for all or part of a motion—and resume walking with a natural gait. The achievement required a specialized amputation surgery combined with a non-invasive surface electrode connection to a robotic prosthetic lower leg. A study describing the technologies was published today in the journal Nature Medicine.

China has a vastly different vision for AI than we do – they view it as a mechanism for authoritarian population control, full stop. They are not even being secretive about this, they are very clear about it, and they are already pursuing their agenda. And they do not intend to limit their AI strategy to China – they intend to proliferate it all across the world, everywhere they are powering 5G networks, everywhere they are loaning Belt And Road money, everywhere they are providing friendly consumer apps like Tiktok that serve as front ends to their centralized command and control AI.

The history of porn/sexual content and technology are tied together.

One of the first innovations that brought erotic literature to the masses was the printing press. This was followed by the steam power rotary press which caused an explosion of the content throughout Europe.

So while there was a massive growth in books/literature in general, society had a thirst for the erotic stuff.

The development of AI started in the 1940’s, simultaneous with the invention of the computer. The first scientific paper on neural networks – the architecture of the AI we have today – was published in 1943. Entire generations of AI scientists over the last 80 years were born, went to school, worked, and in many cases passed away without seeing the payoff that we are receiving now. They are legends, every one.
