- Comment on Signal announces a backup feature that includes 100MB of storage for texts and the last 45 days' worth of media for free, or 100GB of storage for $1.99/month 1 week ago:
The thing with signal on iOS is simply that there currently is no way to back up your messages.
And I’m kind of going to be a bit pissed if the only way to back up my messages will be to use signal’s servers after this feature is released.
- Comment on The Era of 'AI Psychosis' is Here. Are You a Possible Victim? 4 weeks ago:
Seriously, using something devoid of thought as “a sparring partner for your thoughts” seems to me like it’s a serious entry point to losing one’s grip.
Especially since the behaviour of those machines is steered by large corporations whose only goal is to get your ressources, be it money, skill or attention.
- Comment on Signal's Meredith Whittaker says AI agents doing tasks on users' behalf pose security and privacy risks and refers to their use as “putting your brain in a jar”. 6 months ago:
The problem being: Why pay you, if all they’d need is an AI agent?
Technology like this will not be used by the workers to prevent having to do bullshit jobs, it will be used by employers to prevent paying people.
In a world that lets everybody profit from the advances we make, that would be a good thing, but in the world I see us living in, that’ll just grow the gap between poor and rich.
