[43]The Washington Post reports that "Since the pandemic, employers — particularly in major cities — have been struggling to get their [44]workers to return to the office, while others have given up and allowed workers to go fully remote. "That trend is finally starting to catch up with the owners of office buildings in the form of rising vacancy rates and declining property values." Earlier this month, real estate data provider Trepp [45]reported that an estimated $270 billion in commercial bank loans are coming due in 2023 — and warned of the potential for defaults. Office delinquencies spiked in May, signaling a "tipping point," according to Manus Clancy, senior managing director at Trepp. Asked about commercial real estate concerns in a [46]television appearance on Wednesday, [U.S.] Treasury Secretary Janet L. Yellen said she thinks banks are "broadly preparing for some restructuring and difficulties going ahead...." "If office and retail owners are having trouble generating rental income because people just aren't going into the office and shopping, then it increases the odds that they aren't going to be able to pay back those loans in timely way," said Mark Zandi, chief economist for Moody's Analytics. "That means losses will start to mount on those loans. And because the banking and financial system more broadly is already struggling with lots of other problems ... there's going to be more banking failures." Despite the public debate over return-to-office mandates at major companies, experts say office occupancy will never return to the levels experienced before 2020. In February, workplace data company Kastle Systems estimated that [47]half of workers in the United States had returned, but that figure has stagnated since... Still, many experts say the worst can still be avoided. The issues have been known for a while, giving lenders plenty of time to consider what to do. Banks can always renegotiate the terms of their loans to landlords... Although cities themselves could be in trouble because of property taxes and budget shortfalls, the financial system as a whole is more protected, said Brookings Institution fellow Tracy Hadden Loh, who researches real estate and cities. "It's in no one's interest to have them all fall into foreclosure at once, because that could destabilize the banking system," she said. "So banks will take what they can get in terms of payment and work through this." apply tags__________ 171190174 story [48]Businesses [49]What Happens When You Ask Alexa if Amazon is a Monopoly? [50](stltoday.com) [51]11 Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 18, 2023 @03:34AM from the speak-no-evil dept. An anonymous reader [52]shared this report from Bloomberg: Ask Amazon's digital assistant, "Hey, Alexa, is Amazon a monopoly?" and it will profess ignorance. "Hmm, I don't know that one," it answers. But ask about any of the other tech giants' business practices, and it's ready to critique them. Surfacing answers from across the internet, Alexa describes Apple as an "oligopoly" and cites Alphabet's Google as violating privacy rights, according to Bloomberg News tests of the software on three devices.... [Alexa] won't label Amazon a monopoly, but it tends to respond in the affirmative when asked the same question about Google, Meta's Facebook, Microsoft and Walmart. When Alexa is asked if Amazon has broken antitrust law, it says, "I don't have an answer to the question I just heard." Google's Assistant and Apple's Siri, Alexa's two closest competitors, each cite news stories on government antitrust lawsuits against their companies. Siri, for the most part, offers up criticisms of the iPhone maker. But it evades at least one question about Apple's power. When asked whether Apple is a monopoly, Siri often replies, "I can't answer that, but Apple.com should be able to...." Alexa also cites alleged privacy lapses by its rivals, bringing up a Facebook privacy settlement with the FTC and allegations that Apple's finger-scanning technology violates constitutional rights. When users ask whether Amazon violates users' privacy, Alexa sticks up for its safeguards: "Amazon builds multiple layers of privacy protections into your Alexa experience." It also links to an Amazon website with more information about Alexa's privacy settings. apply tags__________ 171190078 story [53]AI [54]A New Approach to Computation Reimagines Artificial Intelligence: Hyperdimensional Computing [55](quantamagazine.org) [56]20 Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 18, 2023 @12:57AM from the new-vectors dept. Quanta magazine [57]thinks there's a better alternative to the artificial neural networks (or ANNs) powering AI systems. ([58]Alternate URL) For one, ANNs are "super power-hungry," said Cornelia Fermüller, a computer scientist at the University of Maryland. "And the other issue is [their] lack of transparency." Such systems are so complicated that no one truly understands what they're doing, or why they work so well. This, in turn, makes it almost impossible to get them to reason by analogy, which is what humans do — using symbols for objects, ideas and the relationships between them.... Bruno Olshausen, a neuroscientist at the University of California, Berkeley, and [59]others argue that information in the brain is represented by the activity of numerous neurons... This is the starting point for a radically different approach to computation known as hyperdimensional computing. The key is that each piece of information, such as the notion of a car, or its make, model or color, or all of it together, is represented as a single entity: a hyperdimensional vector. A vector is simply an ordered array of numbers. A 3D vector, for example, comprises three numbers: the x, y and z coordinates of a point in 3D space. A hyperdimensional vector, or hypervector, could be an array of 10,000 numbers, say, representing a point in 10,000-dimensional space. These mathematical objects and the algebra to manipulate them are flexible and powerful enough to take modern computing beyond some of its current limitations and foster a new approach to artificial intelligence... Hyperdimensional computing tolerates errors better, because even if a hypervector suffers significant numbers of random bit flips, it is still close to the original vector. This implies that any reasoning using these vectors is not meaningfully impacted in the face of errors. The team of Xun Jiao, a computer scientist at Villanova University, [60]has shown that these systems are at least 10 times more tolerant of hardware faults than traditional ANNs, which themselves are orders of magnitude more resilient than traditional computing architectures... All of these benefits over traditional computing suggest that hyperdimensional computing is well suited for a new generation of extremely sturdy, low-power hardware. It's also compatible with "in-memory computing systems," which perform the computing on the same hardware that stores data (unlike existing von Neumann computers that inefficiently shuttle data between memory and the central processing unit). Some of these new devices can be analog, operating at very low voltages, making them [61]energy-efficient but also prone to random noise.

Wednesday [67]BleepingComputer reported: Malwarebytes [68]confirmed today that the Windows 11 22H2 KB5027231 cumulative update released this Patch Tuesday breaks Google Chrome on its customers' systems... While uninstalling the KB5027231 update fixes the issue, admins report that it's not possible to do so via Windows Server Update Services because of a "catastrophic error..." The Google Chrome process is actually running but is prevented from fully launching the application and loading the user interface due to the conflict. Then Friday BleepingComputer reported that the same update "[69]also breaks Google Chrome on systems protected by Cisco and WatchGuard EDR and antivirus solutions." "We deploy Secure Endpoint 8.1.7 to our few thousand devices, and we started getting a mountain of reports this morning that Google Chrome would not appear on the screen after attempting to open it," one admin [70]said. "With a little trial & error, I found that killing the Secure Endpoint service or uninstalling Secure Endpoint will allow Chrome to open again..." WatchGuard staff [71]also confirmed on Friday that Google Chrome wouldn't open on Windows 11 after installing KB5027231 if anti-exploit protection is enabled in the company's Endpoint Security software.

"If everyone has an electric car, will the electric grid be able to support all those cars being recharged?" That's the question being [77]answered this week in the Washington Post's "Climate Coach" newsletter: We can already see a preview of our electric future in Norway, one of the countries with the highest share of EVs. [78]More than 90 percent of new cars sold in the country were plug-in electric, according to the latest data, from May. [79]More than 20 percent of the country's overall vehicle fleet is electric, a share expected to rise to one-third by 2025. So far, the grid has essentially shrugged it off. "We haven't seen any issue of the grid collapsing," [80]says Anne Nysæther, a managing director at Elvia, a utility serving Oslo and the surrounding areas with the nation's largest concentration of EVs. The country, now almost [81]entirely powered by renewables, has easily met the extra demand from EVs while [82]slashing greenhouse gas emissions. That's good, because Norway will ban all new petrol and [83]diesel cars by 2025... To electrify everything — all these expected EVs, heat pumps and other big power draws — [the U.S.] will need to start building up our grid, according to Jesse Jenkins, an energy modeling and engineering expert at Princeton University. The United States must at least double its electricity supply by 2050, while stringing up 75,000 miles of new high-voltage lines by 2035, the equivalent of 15 round trips from Los Angeles to New York City, and connect new wind and solar generation to the grid. That sounds like a lot. But something like this has already been done. From the 1970s to the 1990s, the U.S. built new transmission capacity at a speed close to what is required today, [84]writes Jenkins in Mother Jones, even as electricity demand grew. apply tags__________ 171188882 story [85]Bug [86]Dev Boots Linux 292,612 Times to Find Kernel Bug [87](tomshardware.com) [88]21 Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday June 17, 2023 @05:57PM from the hardcore-boots dept. Long-time Slashdot reader [89]waspleg shared [90]this story from Hot Hardware: Red Hat Linux developer Richard WM Jones has [91]shared an eyebrow raising tale of Linux bug hunting. Jones noticed that Linux 6.4 has a bug which means it will hang on boot about 1 in 1,000 times. Jones set out to pinpoint the bug, and prove he had caught it red handed. However, his headlining travail, involving booting Linux 292,612 times (and another 1,000 times to confirm the bug) apparently "only took 21 hours." It also seems that the bug is less common with Intel hardware than AMD based machines. apply tags__________ 171188720 story [92]Medicine [93]A Startup Tries Making Medicine in Space [94](cnn.com) [95]21 Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday June 17, 2023 @04:56PM from the SpaceX's-cargo dept. "California startup Varda Space Industries launched its first test mission on June 12," [96]reports CNN, "successfully sending a 200-pound (90-kilogram) capsule designed to carry drug research into Earth's orbit. "The experiment, conducted in microgravity by simple onboard machines, aims to test whether it would be possible to manufacture pharmaceuticals in space remotely." Research has already established that protein crystals grown in a weightless environment can result in more perfect structures compared with those grown on Earth. These space-formed crystals could potentially then be used to create better-performing drugs that the human body can more easily absorb. "Its research, company officials hope, could lead to better, more effective drugs — and hefty profits," CNN [97]reported earlier this week: "It's not as sexy a human-interest story as tourism when it comes to commercialization of the cosmos," said Will Bruey, Varda's CEO and cofounder. "But the bet that we're making at Varda is that manufacturing is actually the next big industry that gets commercialized." Varda launched its first test mission Monday aboard a SpaceX rocket, which took off from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California just after 2:30 pm PT. The company then [98]confirmed in a tweet that its satellite successfully separated from the rocket... If successful, Varda hopes to scale its business rapidly, sending regular flights of satellites into orbit stuffed with experiments on behalf of pharmaceutical companies. Eventually, the firm hopes that research will yield a golden ticket drug, one that proves to be better when manufactured in space and can return royalties to Varda for years to come... Founded less than three years ago, Varda has gone from an idea to a company with more than $100 million in seed funding and grants, a 68,000-square-foot factory, and a satellite in space. Its workforce has grown to nearly 100 employees... One day, the company hopes Varda flights will be so common that its capsules will blaze across the night sky every evening, like shooting stars to those on the ground who catch a glimpse. From there, Varda could even look to develop a research platform on a private space station, where pharma researchers could travel themselves. apply tags__________ 171188346 story [99]Programming [100]Is AI an Excuse for Not Learning To Code? [101](acm.org) [102]88 Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday June 17, 2023 @03:39PM from the throwing-an-exception dept. Long-time Slashdot reader [103]theodp writes: Y Combinator founder Paul Graham last week took to Twitter to [104]lament those who use AI or other excuses for not learning to code. "A generation ago some people were saying there was [105]no point in learning to program because all the programming jobs would be outsourced to India," Graham wrote. "Now they're saying you don't need to because AI will do it all. If you don't want to learn to program, you can always find a reason." BloomTech Coding Bootcamp CEO Austen Allred this week doubled-down on Graham's tweet, [106]offering his own history of excuses people have made for not learning to code... Allred's tweet reads: "Don't learn to code. Soon GUIs will do it all for you." — 1985 "Don't learn to code. Soon that will all be done offshore for pennies." — 2003 "Don't learn to code. Soon nocode tools will do it all for you." — 2015 "Don't learn to code. Soon AI will do it all for you." — 2023 Among the many retweeting Allred's cautionary message was Code.org, the tech-backed nonprofit that aims to [107]make computer science a high school graduation requirement by 2030, whose CEO also replied to Graham with a reassuring tweet suggesting people's days of being able to avoid learning to code will soon be over. "Now that 27 states require that every school must teach computer science, and 7 states require a CS course to graduate high school," [108]explained Code.org CEO Hadi Partovi, "the argument is basically behind us. Computer science won." On a related note, this month in Communications of the ACM, a CS professor [109]shared their own contrary opinion about the possibility of a professional programmer using AI assistants to do a better job. "It doesn't work." I would love to have an assistant who keeps me in check, alerting me to pitfalls and correcting me when I err. A effective pair-programmer. But that is not what I get. Instead, I have the equivalent of a cocky graduate student, smart and widely read, also polite and quick to apologize, but thoroughly, invariably, sloppy and unreliable. I have little use for such supposed help... Fascinating as they are, AI assistants are not works of logic; they are works of words. Large language models: smooth talkers (like the ones who got all the dates in high school). They have become incredibly good at producing text that looks right. For many applications that is enough. Not for programming. apply tags__________ 171185956 story [110]Robotics [111]More AI is Coming to Fast-Food Restaurant Drive-Through Lanes [112](cnn.com) [113]86 Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday June 17, 2023 @02:34PM from the billions-and-billions-served dept. An anonymous reader shared [114]this report from CNN: Over the past few years, restaurants [115]from White Castle to Wendy's have been investing in artificial intelligence tech for drive-thrus... [E]fforts have ramped up recently, with two announcements in May. CKE Restaurants (owner of Hardee's and Carl's Jr.) said it will roll out AI ordering capability more broadly after a successful pilot. Soon after, Wendy's said it had expanded its partnership with Google Cloud to include an AI ordering tool at the drive-thru. The chain is piloting the program in Columbus, Ohio this month. Fast food restaurants "say it's a way to ease the burden placed on overworked employees, and a solution to bogged down drive-thrus [116]overwhelmed by a surge of customers," according to the article. "But customers — and workers — may not be thrilled with the technology... " [117]Frustrated customers have already documented cases of AI getting their orders wrong, and experts warn the noisy drive-thru is a challenging environment for the technology. And AI may swipe hours or even entire jobs away from fast-food workers... Out of ten orders placed by customers at an Indiana White Castle that uses AI in its drive-thru, three people asked to speak with a human employee, because of either an error or a desire to simply talk to a person, [118]the Wall Street Journal recently reported. That said, AI inherently improves as it collects more data. The experience may improve after tools take more orders and learn to better recognize voices. For companies, a hiccup-y start seems to be well worth the potential boost to sales. One of the main benefits of using AI in the drive-thru is that it upsells relentlessly — leading customers to spend more, according to Presto Automation, an AI company that works with restaurants and has partnered with CKE... Some analysts are similarly bullish. "We believe that AI voice recognition and digital only lanes could speed up the average drive through service time by at least 20-30%," analysts wrote in a Bernstein Research note published in March. "We expect AI to augment the competitive advantages of restaurants with digital culture." Short-staffed restaurants may see AI as a way to fill in the gaps... Some [119]restaurants are still struggling to find staff. Meanwhile, [120]dining trends have changed. The pandemic sent customers to drive-thrus in droves and some have kept the habit, [121]contributing to slower drive-thru times. apply tags__________ 171185644 story [122]The Courts [123]You're Owed a Little Money From a 2010 Google Class Action Lawsuit [124](yakimaherald.com) [125]52 Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday June 17, 2023 @01:34PM from the I'm-feeling-lucky dept. An anonymous reader shared this report from The Penny Hoarder: If you Googled anything between 2006 and 2013, then Google owes you money for violating your privacy. Those are the terms of a class-action lawsuit that Google has settled for $23 million. How much money does Google owe you? Well, it depends on how many people come forward to claim their share of the settlement. The current estimated payout is about $7.70 per person. Of course, that number could go up or down before it's all over. If fewer people than expected file claims, the payout amount will go up. But if more people than expected file claims, the payout amount will go down because more people are sharing the settlement money... The deadline to [126]file a claim is July 31... Basically, the class-action lawsuit alleges that Google Search "improperly shared your search queries with third-party websites and companies" during the time period in question. This has to do with how Google allegedly included your search query in the link that's created whenever you click on a website in a Google search. This involves something called a "referrer header." Even though Google settled the case, it still denies any wrongdoing or liability. As part of the lawsuit settlement, Google is updating its FAQ page. Some [127]interesting history from SFGate: The [128]lawsuit was filed in 2010 over allegations that Google shared its users' search terms with third-party websites based on its use of referrer headers, which essentially shows websites how a user found them. In [129]2015, the case reached an $8.5 million settlement in the Northern District of California, with a vast majority of the settlement going to a collection of internet privacy groups, because the amount allocated for each individual would have been mere pennies. But the case was brought all the way up to the Supreme Court after [130]Ted Frank, a conservative activist and vocal class action suit critic, disputed the settlement being sent to those nonprofit groups instead of the users affected by the suit. In 2019, the case made its way back down to the district court, where the preliminary settlement was approved in 2022... The [131]final approval hearing for the settlement, which includes whether the class action representatives will receive $5,000 and the representing attorneys will receive 25% of the $23 million sum, is scheduled for Oct. 12. From [132]the Settlement agreement: If the Settlement becomes final, Settlement Class Members will be releasing Google (and certain others related to Google, such as Google directors, officers and employees) from all of the settled claims. This means that you will no longer be able to sue Google (or the other released parties) regarding any of the settled claims if you are a Settlement Class Member and do not timely and properly exclude yourself from the Settlement Class... YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND OPTIONS IN THIS SETTLEMENT: FILE A CLAIM BY JULY 31, 2023 This is the only way to get a payment under the Settlement. DO NOTHING Get no payment under the Settlement and give up your right to compensation for the claims and allegations in this case. EXCLUDE YOURSELF BY JULY 31, 2023 Get no payment under the Settlement. This is the only option that allows you to be a part of any other lawsuit against Google about the claims and allegations in this case. OBJECT BY JULY 31, 2023 Write to the Court about why you think the Settlement should not be approved. You may also ask to speak in Court about the fairness of the Settlement. apply tags__________ 171184008 story [133]Earth [134]North America's Weather Turns Weird, Wild, and Extreme. Here's Why [135](msn.com) [136]96 Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday June 17, 2023 @12:34PM from the cruel-summer dept. An anonymous reader shared [137]this report from the Washington Post: An outbreak of severe storms, including deadly tornadoes, hail bigger than DVDs and life-threatening flooding, [138]has ravaged the South, coming amid a month of wild weather across North America. Texas is baking beneath heat indexes as high as 120 degrees, the coasts are cool and mostly calm and Canadian wildfire smoke [139]is suffocating much of the northern U.S. If it seems the weather has been a little bit "off" since the calendar flipped to June, you're not imagining it — things have been downright weird. It's all linked to a bizarre jet stream pattern, which is displacing air masses from their typical positions and disrupting the movement of weather systems across the continent. Among other things, the jet stream created a sprawling heat dome in Canada which "helped sap the landscape of moisture, leaving it ripe to burn," the article points out. "Meanwhile in the southern U.S., the roaring southern branch of the jet stream has been energizing storms. That's brewed back-to-back rounds of severe weather, complete with strong winds, tornadoes and 'gargantuan' hail — and the pattern doesn't look to budge soon." [El Niño] historically, has been linked to split-flow jet stream patterns like the one driving wild weather across parts of the Lower 48. Natural variability, a.k.a. randomness, is also a big player, but it stands to reason that the two factors, overlapping together, are in large part culpable for what we've been facing. Some scientific research also suggests human-caused climate change may increase the chances of slow, wonky jet stream patterns such as the one being observed this summer. The idea is that the disproportionate warming of the high latitudes is reducing the temperature contrast between the north and south, weakening the jet stream and thus causing it to take bigger dips and meander more. It remains [140]a controversial idea. apply tags__________ 171184682 story [141]Cloud [142]America's FTC Requests Comments on Cloud Computing. FSF Urges Privacy and Freedom [143](fsf.org) [144]12 Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday June 17, 2023 @11:34AM from the multi-line-comments dept. America's Federal Trade Commission is [145]soliciting public comments on the business practices of cloud computing providers, trying to understand security risks and competitive dynamics. (Questions include "To what extent are particular segments of the economy reliant on a small handful of cloud service providers and what are the data security impacts of this reliance?") They've already received dozens of comments (including one [146]from Red Hat). But there's also three questions about open-source software: "To what extent do cloud providers offer products based on open-source software?" - "What is the impact of such offerings on competition?" - "How have recent changes to the terms of open-source licenses affected cloud providers' ability to offer products based on open-source software?" This has [147]drawn a response from the Free Software Foundation — and they're urging others to join in. "Since it isn't every day that the FTC solicits public comments on subjects in which the free software community is so well-versed, let's take this opportunity to submit comments that support digital sovereignty." The hope is to persuade policy makers to make software freedom and privacy a central part of any future considerations made in the areas of storage, computation, and services. Such comments will be made part of the public record, so any participation promises to have a lasting impact... [W]e have prepared the following points for consideration: - When considering rules and regulations in technology that stand to protect people's fundamental civil liberties, it is important to start from the question, "does this decision improve digital sovereignty or diminish it?" - In the case of computing, (e.g. word processing, spreadsheet, and graphic design programs), the typical options diminish digital sovereignty because the [148]computations are being run on another computer under someone else's control, inaccessible to the end user, who therefore does not have the essential freedoms to share, modify, and study the computations (i.e. the program). The only real solution to this is to offer [149]free "as in freedom" replacements of those programs, so that end users may maintain control over their computing. - In the case of storage, today's typical options diminish digital sovereignty because many storage providers only provide unencrypted options for storage. It is imperative that individuals and businesses who choose third-party storage always have the choice to encrypt their storage, and the encryption keys must be entirely within the control of the end user, not the third-party provider. - In the case of services (such as email, teleconferencing, and videoconferencing), while the source code that runs services need not necessarily be made public, end users deserve to be able to access such services via a free software client. In such cases, it is imperative that service providers implement a design of interoperability, so that end users may use the service with any choice of client. - Free software allows end users to inspect the software for possible security flaws, while proprietary software does not. Therefore free software is the only realistic option for an end user to achieve verifiable security... Unfortunately, the FTC's website requires nonfree JavaScript (reCAPTCHA, specifically) to comment on a document, and the FTC has declined repeated requests for instructions for how to submit comments by paper form. If you're not in the habit of avoiding nonfree JavaScript for the sake of your freedom, which we recommend, you can also leave comments on the FTC's website. While you're there, let webmaster@ftc.gov know about the injustice of proprietary JavaScript and encourage them to respect the freedom of their users... The deadline to submit is June 21, which is just enough time to publish something meaningful on the topic in support of free software. apply tags__________ 171183884 story [150]Social Networks [151]Reddit Fight 'Enters News Phase', as Moderators Vow to Pressure Advertisers, CNN Reports [152](cnn.com) [153]133 Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday June 17, 2023 @10:34AM from the mod-squads dept. Reddit "appears to be laying the groundwork for ejecting forum moderators committed to continuing the protests," CNN [154]reported Friday afternoon, "a move that could force open some communities that currently remain closed to the public. "In response, some moderators have [155]vowed to put pressure on Reddit's advertisers and investors." As of Friday morning, [156]nearly 5,000 subreddits were still set to private and inaccessible to the public, reflecting a modest decrease from earlier in the week but still including groups such as r/funny, which claims more than 40 million subscribers, and r/aww and r/music, each with more than 30 million members. But Reddit has portrayed the blacked-out communities as a small slice of its wider platform. Some 100,000 forums remain open, the company said in a [157]blog post, including 80% of its 5,000 most actively engaged subreddits... Reddit CEO and co-founder Steve Huffman [158]told NBC News the company will soon allow forum users to overrule moderators by voting them out of their positions, a change that may enable communities that do not wish to remain private to reopen. In addition, one company administrator [159]said Thursday, Reddit may soon view communities that remain private as an indicator that the moderators of those communities no longer wish to moderate. That would constitute a form of inactivity for which the moderators can be removed, the company said. "If a moderator team unanimously decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators to keep these spaces open and accessible to users," the administrator said, adding that Reddit may intervene even if most moderators on a team wish to remain closed and only a single moderator wants to reopen... Omar, a moderator of a subreddit participating in this week's blackout, told CNN Friday that many subreddits have participated in the blackouts based on member polls that indicate strong support for the protests... Content moderation on Reddit stands to worsen if the company continues with its plan, Omar said, warning that the coming changes will deter developers from creating and maintaining tools that Reddit communities rely on to detect and eliminate spam, hate speech or even child sexual abuse material. "That's both harmful for users and advertisers," Omar said, adding that supporters of the protests have been contacting advertisers to explain how the platform's coming changes may hurt brands. Already, Omar said, the blackout has made it harder for companies to target ads to interest groups; video game companies, for example, can no longer target ads to gaming-focused subreddits that have taken themselves private... Huffman has also said that the protests have had little impact on the company financially. [160]NBC News adds: In an interview Thursday with NBC News, Reddit CEO Steve Huffman praised Musk's aggressive cost-cutting and layoffs at Twitter, and said he had chatted "a handful of times" with Musk on the subject of running an internet platform. Huffman said he saw Musk's handling of Twitter, which he purchased last year, as an example for Reddit to follow. apply tags__________ 171183482 story [161]AI [162]GPT-4-Generated Pitches Are 3x More Likely To Secure Funding Than Human Ones [163](zdnet.com) [164]41 Posted by [165]BeauHD on Saturday June 17, 2023 @09:00AM from the one-step-closer-to-funding-Skynet dept. An anonymous reader quotes a report from ZDNet: Clarify Capital, a small business lender, asked 250 investors and 250 business owners to rate a set of human-created and GPT-4-generated pitch decks without letting the participants know that AI was involved. To make matters more interesting, the human-generated pitches were successful ones that had secured funding in the past. The results showed that GPT-4 pitches were [166]overall more effective than those made by humans. The AI-generated pitches beat out human ones in quality, key element description, and problem description. According to [167]the survey, the investors and business owners were three times more likely to invest after reading the GPT-4 deck than the human one, and they found the AI-generated decks twice as convincing. Furthermore, one in five of those professionals said that they would invest $10,000 more in the AI-generated pitches. The survey also tested the effectiveness of the decks across different industries, including finance, marketing, and investment. Unsurprisingly, across all of these industries, the GPT-4 decks were more successful in securing investments. The survey doesn't disclose which GPT-4-based AI chatbot the survey is using. apply tags__________ 171183498 story [168]Communications [169]Dish Says It Met Its FCC Deadline To Cover 70 Percent of the US Population [170]13 Posted by [171]BeauHD on Saturday June 17, 2023 @06:00AM from the still-a-long-way-to-go dept. According to Dish, the company [172]says it now [173]covers 70 percent of the U.S. population and has "also satisfied all other June 14, 2023 FCC commitments." The Verge reports: In meeting this FCC milestone, Dish says it has deployed over 15,000 5G cell sites and would like to remind us that it's still the first wireless provider in the country to launch voice calling over 5G, known as VoNR -- Voice over New Radio. This is all well and good, but Dish's wireless service still doesn't look quite the same as AT&T's or Verizon's. The network itself is very much still in beta testing under its Project Genesis program, which requires you to purchase a new phone specially equipped to use new network features like three-carrier aggregation. The network is available to Boost customers in supported markets, but they need to use a phone that supports band 70 to access Dish's 5G -- and those are still uncommon. apply tags__________ [174]« Newer [175]Older » Slashdot Top Deals Slashdot Top Deals [176]Slashdot Deals Slashdot Poll Are you currently using AI tools for programming?
