Scanning texts is OCR and has never needed modern LLMs integrated to achieve amazing results.

Automated tagging gets closer, but there is a metric shit ton that can be done in that regard using incredibly simple tools that don't use an egregious amount of energy or hallucinate.

There is no way in hell that they aren't already doing these things. The best use cases for LLMs for NARA are edge cases of things mostly covered by existing tech.

And you and I both know this is going to give Google exclusive access to National Archive data. New training data that isn't tainted by potentially being LLM output is an insanely valuable commodity now that the hype is dying down and algorithmic advances are slowing.

Mullenweg, CEO of tumblr in addition to everything else, is harassing a trans woman for "reasons" (don't know why, not diving deep enough to find out). Is publically connecting multiple of their disconnected sfw and nsfw identities by using internal tumblr data, and harrassing them across all of those identities apparently.

Until they lobby to get laws changed, many companies have legal requirements regarding PII that mean serious fines if CoPilot or Recall ever turn on in their environment (and if they're caught of course).

Windows is not going to fuck this up and force this on, handing easy legal wins against them to the world. They will have the normal configuration options available that they always do for features with potential legal liability attached.

If you're using Enterprise on a personal machine, you've messed something up. There are other ways beyond Group Policy in that environment that are probably causing what you're seeing. SCCM, Intune, Policies over the network vs local... that significantly raises the chances of something else stepping on your local Group Policies.

I've not had that problem on either of my Win 10 Pro machines when using Group Policy to disable things, over the last four years.

They hated him because he spoke the truth.

porting security updates from those LTSC versions into the regular ones might be doable.

The way will likely be to just adjust some registry keys to force Windows Update to pull from the LTSC update channel. That's been the solution for ages, no "porting" needed.

Group Policy

I've lost count of how many of these articles have been posted on Lemmy screaming that the sky was falling over something you can switch off with three clicks and a scroll (Start, Settings, Personalization, scroll to the bottom and click the final switch). Group policy may be beyond the general skill level, which makes the constant Linux suggestions even more laughable.

Like you, I regularly direct people to group policy (and even how to safely activate Windows with a fake Pro license so they can get Group Policy). Fighting an uphill battle.

There are many many business customers that can't use copilot. They are not going to tell them to just lock into an old insecure version. You'll be able to disable it, at the very least, on a Pro license using Group Policy.

Like everything else Microsoft does that has legal implications regarding PII.

Most AI agents don't have that level of access to the systems they are running on. What purpose would anyone have to teach it how to dowload a repo, let alone allow it to arbitrarily run excutables based off input data (distinctly not instructions)?

There are ways to break out of the input data context and issue commands, but you've been watching too many movies. Better to just do things like hide links to a page only a bot would find and auto block anything that requests the hidden page.

There will be ways to force your Windows 10 machine to pull down the continued updates meant for government and extended support contracts, just like there was for Windows 7.

Not a good or particularly safe way to keep your PC, and even the extended updates will stop eventually, but worth knowing in case anyone is afraid of making the full switch to Linux.

Is this not how most depression medicines work?

I thought that's why they all have warnings about increased thoughts of suicide, and why some doctors hesitate to prescribe: the meds might give someone in a bad place just enough of a push to get moving that they follow through with suicide.

Um... they are, and have been for almost 20 years, since the Wii. Or the N64 depending on how you look at it.

What did you think Virtual Console was? How about the NES and SNES mini? What about the "Nintendo Game Pass" or whatever they're calling it?

Animal Crossing's original Japan release had NES games in it, and so did the GC rerelease/psuedosequel we got internationally too.

Even better: During the Wii era, the Wiis at the Nintendo Store in New York City ran official Nintendo made software to load games off a connected hard drive, so you could play multiple of their new releases without workers having to switch discs.

It has always been about attempts to prevent piracy and keep control over how people access their games for Nintendo, and they are roughly 10 years behind the curve on modern tech trends.

Either stop supporting them or get used to it.

Oh, you fool. Christians are part of the body of Christ, and communion involves eating of the body of Christ, and communion is entering into a convenant as a living member of the body of Christ...

Don't eat the Christians. That's how it spreads.
