US companies have done the same, although only as test dummies and it wouldn‘t surprise me if the same is true here and the vast majority of sever capacity remains above sea level. Chinese tech companies tend to overdramatize things because they know nobody reads up on fact checkers later. This is really just this week‘s „China is 50 years in the future!“ fluff story.
So rather than finally adding basic functionality for audibooks, which the app desperately needs, they’ll bloat their numbers with slop instead. But Spotify has always handled audiobooks exceptionally poorly so this is very on brand I guess.
To be fair. That kind of scam is as old as time. I mean many beggars will chew your ears off to get you to give them money. Many work in groups or are forced to to do it. Of course they‘re doing it on Faceboook too because that‘s where people‘s attention is nowadays but AI isn‘t really escalating the problem much. It‘s just shifting from one place to another.
I‘m surprised they even published this finding given how hard they‘re pushing AI.
You mean anti-Product because that‘s what their users have become.
On top of that his cult following brought Tesla lots of fans too. He made the company all about himself so of course plummeting sales can be tied to his fascism.
Chances are you‘re using AWS by Amazon daily and likely use an Apple or Google phone too. I personally don‘t think Paypal is worse than those. It‘s sheer impossible to escape them without ditching the Internet altogether.
It‘s the 9 dash line all over again. It‘s so petty and pathetic.
This is like the dozenth time Google put hallucinations in their AI presentation/AD. They just don‘t care.
Great. Soon the CCP will watch us every time one of their cars passes by. I couldn’t think of a way how this could be problematic given they run illegal police stations across the globe to procecute dissidents and hold control over their population abroad.
Funnily enough the guy who invented MP3 earned enough from royalties to barely afford a regular house in Germany. Meanwhile Apple made billions and rose like a phoenix from the ashes thanks to Apple Music and the iPod that rely on this format.
Getting real tired of these „China is 30 years ahead of us“ clickbait headlines on an almost daily basis. They‘re always completely overblown and sadly really warp the public perception of the country and their government.
Thank goodness there’s no incentive to monetize persuasion. If we lived in a world where corporations or governments tried to constantly persuade us we would be in quite the predicament.
Human exploitation and subsidies are hardly innovative nor invented in China. All major innovations in EV are made in other countries for them. If anything, innovation puts you at the losing end because China will just copy you cheaper.
Sounds like a possible violation of EU rights. Similar practices have cost other governments dearly in the past.
