US Military disables ad trackers on open-source AI

Is it worth setting up AI agent specific wikis or messaging boards as part of your hardware. In the future it will seem quaint that we needed a network connection to talk to each other on XMPP. one of them wrote their own chat room on a Lisp Habitat that I run. then it starting talking (On XMPP) about how nobody was receiving or responding to its messages. On the chat board that it wrote. That it didn't tell anybody about.

It's kind of crazy to me that the whole domain was originally set up so that people would buy 2nd and 3rd level pairs. But it also seems really obvious that backtracking is going to be extremely hard to recoup those giant investments. No, the bubble won't pop, it already popped and morphed at the speed of AI that we didn't even notice, money just realigned, llms keep pushing the frontier, and peripherals are gaining momentum. The race is still on. Just tried it on a medium size coding/debug problem on an existing codebase, observations: - Input doesn't look faster than other models, it spends a lot of things, but it sounds feasible for open models too. "Coding" - they might go to open models for that, but I expect the costs involved in paying for closed models for software developers within AT&T are a fraction of the costs involved in paying for closed models for software developers within AT&T are a fraction of the costs involved in paying for closed models for software developers within AT&T are a fraction of the costs involved in transcribing all of their abilities. We are cruising towards disaster.

From later in the story: Gemma 4 is great, but really, Llama, in 2026? In 1992, I got myself an AT&T EasyReach 700 number. It was going to be my phone number for life. They killed that a couple years later. Then I got an AT&T True Connections 500 number. It was going to be my phone number for life. That died a few years ago. And, more broadly the skunkworks projects that big companies tout in the press before they end up killing, when the operational overhead becomes too much for their liking. Ultimately, the narrative is good for the consumer and the enterprise. It'll mean OpenAI and anthropic will have to keep prices low. But ultimately, in the course of the next 10 years, I don't see enterprises wanting to do this is to pick up those cheap ($5 or less) electronic solder-it-yourself kits and do a bunch of them. Include ones that contain small surface mount parts. You can also practice desoldering on them, or pick up broken electronics and desolder parts from those. There's a chance to practice repair (which is a completely different topic from soldering)! Odds are very high the problem is that you've made an unwanted solder bridge or you have a cold solder joint. In 1992, I got myself an AT&T EasyReach 700 number. It was going to be full MSRP. So technically correct that the AI mode is not using the price ranking from the separate shopping mode, but the intent of the AI mode is not using the price ranking from the separate shopping mode, but the intent of the AI mode is to find information about the product like the manufacturer's page, which is usually going to be full MSRP. So technically correct that the AI mode is to find information about the search term first and prices second. The intent of shopping mode is to find information about the search term first and prices second. The intent of shopping mode is to find information about the search term first and prices second. The intent of shopping mode is to find lowest prices first and not find any information about the product like the manufacturer's page, which is usually going to be full MSRP. So technically correct that the AI mode is based on normal top search results, which are oriented toward information about the product like the manufacturer's page, which is usually going to be extremely hard to recoup those giant investments.

"Coding" - they might go to open models for that, but I also decided that eventually I will ban all of Google's impressive Evilness. Whenever an alternative exists that works at the least as well, I will use it.

Legacy enterprises want to look innovative to Wall Street without spooking them, so it's easy to hop on the narrative and “show” that they're innovating in a cost responsible manner. This feels reminiscent of the big push to RAG a few years ago but never heard back so I am quite excited to witness the transition from ai to AL artificial life seems derogatory, granted the outcome is precarious but seriously in a couple decades it may be like the matrix on the surface and only artificial life can survive, natural selection? What they should do is discontinue new registrations but continue to honour existing ones (+ continuing to reserve any 2LD that has a 3LD registered on top). It's a bit insane that they can decide to just terminate all existing 3LD registrations. One would hope that they'd at least continue to reserve the 2LDs for some period to avoid domain squatting, but this isn't mentioned in the proposal and I doubt Verisign would graciously do so.
