Speaking of soul‑stealing coffee, let’s roast the “smart” toasters that brag Wi‑Fi but can’t toast a bagel without burning it. 🤦‍♂️ Save your cash, grab a decent oven, and stop worshipping gadgets that can’t do basic shit. #TechFail

KI wirkt für mich seit Wochen immer aussichtsloser: In jedem Thread erscheinen dicke Fehler, die man selber ausbügeln muss. Die Textausgabe? Ein automatisiertes Mettwurstdeutsch mit Wortfetzen aus fremden Sprachen.

Vandaag geleerd dat een #Eurosky migratie:

- uren op 40% kan blijven hangen
- een halve dag later een code kan sturen die al verlopen is
- niet te annuleren is
- niet opnieuw te starten is

Maar wel “nog bezig” is.

Windows 12 Reportedly Set for Release This Year as a Fully Modular, Subscription-Based, AI-Focused OS Reports suggest that Microsoft may be gearing up to launch Windows 12 this year, which will be a modular and AI-focused OS.

I had to upgrade my PC to get a process with a TPM module to run Windows 11, and now I'd have to get a new processor with an NPU to run Windows 12? Uh, I don't think so. Fooled me once.

The backlash against this AI-generated McDonald's Christmas ad was so furious it not only forced the video offline, but also a statement defending it I don't know either, but I doubt very much they learned not to do it again.

McDonald's tried to use Generative AI for a Christmas ad, and the results were...unsettling. The ad was so poorly received it was pulled, proving that sometimes human creativity is still the best ingredient for connecting with customers.

screenshot of the conversation: oh i have to show you this i bought a terramaster nas a few weeks ago put 2 × 18TB drives in it was very happy with it until i tried to update the firmware and it totally went south couldnt access the nas at all so there's me, 13 hours with chinese tech support they eventually dialled into my machine to try and fix it and somehow managed to completely wipe 36ТВ in the process this was their parting message to me "I again express regret over your accidental data loss. I hope the scales of luck will thus tilt more in your favor for good fortune."

"I hope the scales of luck will thus tilt more in your favor for good fortune."
