For all else noone needs the shit baked into the OS.

So you can't think of a single reason why anyone that's not disabled would want to use AI on a computer? No reason anyone would want to use ChatGPT? Generate an image? Re-write some text? Summarise some text or a video? None at all? Really?

I said baked into the OS. Noone needs that. Everyone who needs ai can open a browser. That was the whole topic here, not usefulness of ai in general 😊

[–] FreedomAdvocate@lemmy.net.au 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Being baked into the OS means it can do infinitely more than a browser based one can.

Name one really good application for baked-in? Nothing useful comes to my mind. And i'm not categorically against AI.

Being baked into the OS means it can access parts of the OS. Asking ChatGPT in firefox to turn off HDR on your PC doesn't work. Using Copilot built in to the OS means it can.

I know what it means, but toggling HDR isn't really the thing that makes the total surveillance worth it. Not even for people who are ignorant to privacy.

[–] FreedomAdvocate@lemmy.net.au 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oh so you do know the difference but you pretended you didn’t to try and act like there isn’t any?

What “total surveillance” are you talking about? You have full control over your data with copilot.

[–] Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I didn't pretend. I questioned the use of baked-in "ai". And if you believe in your total control, you might just be the perfect customer for it.

You questioned why it exists while knowing the reason why it exists and pretending it doesn’t exist.

[–] Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 1 points 21 hours ago

I questioned the USE of it, not the basic mechanics of what it does or how it works. I can build an incredibly complicated machine to turn on my light-switches (ok, bad example as i actually do that in a smart-home) but turning it on by hand is quicker and simpler. Noone would want such a machine for that. Same why no one (except maybe disabled people or totally technically clueless ones) would need an LLM to toggle HDR or adjust brightness/volume/whatever.
