New comment by grammers in "What happens in the brain while daydreaming?"

grammers — Fri, 15 Dec 2023 21:57:15 +0000

It's fascinating how different minds can process information. I myself have a photographic memory - only one of my kids has it as well. The two of us are constantly being asked where this and that is lying around, and we can always tell while the others in the family wouldn't be able to guess even if they just saw whatever they were looking for. It's simply amazing.

New comment by grammers in "The AI Trust Crisis"

grammers — Thu, 14 Dec 2023 18:15:58 +0000

In what way would AI deserve our trust? To date data hungry companies have proven to NOT have consumers interest in mind. Why should AI companies be any different?

In dubio pro reo? I don't think so.

Tutanota has got a Linux app, and the Android app is available on F-Droid.

I love what both companies are trying to achieve with building private ecosystems, but for me Linux must always come first. Everyone who loves privacy has switched to Linux by now.

This is the new cancel culture: Comment away with hate speech (bots) to stop a true and honest discussion. It's too bad the internet is not yet ready for this form of misinformation and destroying real conversations. Now with AI (bots) coming up, it will get even more difficult...
