AI-based romantic companions, sexting, and phone-sex are going to be huge if they aren’t already. It’s going to be like “Her”, because we live in a Black Mirror episode.

The lying is unacceptable, but either they hire temporary workers to obsolete themselves, or they force tenured people to obsolete themselves.

What would have stopped them from just collecting the data in their own stores, and then developed the tech?
I won’t pretend that Amazon avoided that due to ethical concerns, but doing that would have almost the exact same ethical concerns.

Congress has a lot of power to moderate the president, but the Republican majority has completely failed in that role.

It’s basically “lose a huge amount of money or do me favours that cost you 1/100 as much”. Surprise, surprise, they do the favours.

I’d prefer a self-hosted option. They could even do it the KeePass way where it just saves to a file and you’re responsible for syncing it.
