I understand where you are coming from but Perplexity for example does actually list the sources its taking the information from and it seems to be pretty consistent and on point. Do you mind elaborating why the consent is important though? Are you against piracy and free information as well? It just seems that you have an irrational hatred against this technology, please correct me if iam wrong, i know there is a real danger stemming from it, especially in how govs will use it but i don't see why using it for your own is bad in any sense, especially because of the real efficiency gain.

How is an AI that is being used to search the web for information, that crawls through studies, forums, etc a terrible source? It basically isn't a source at all it just gathers it from different sources. The problem lies in the alignment and sponsorification of it and i would agree if this is about chatgpt but that wasn't the point.

I feel you, it looks like there is at least 2 network setting "managers" now, one for the network adapter and one for the network but it doesn't even matter because after a windows update, chances are that those settings are gone anyways.

It’s a terrible, terrible “source” of information

There's not much room for interpretation here.

Its the politicians fault, if they wouldn't agree on laws that try to protect the privacy of people then they wouldn't need to obscure the settings because there wouldn't be many at all. Windows is a shitshow, i was already reluctant to use Windows 10 but now its a whole new level.

Haters gonna hate, especially in a dedicated community for this exact thing.

It seems that you haven't put your own hands on it yet, there's so much more than just chatgpt. You should definitely try out perplexity, it made using search engines obsolete and the information is neutral, up to date and on point, at least most of the times, rarely you have to push it or give it more information, sadly its big corp and closed source but you can self host with Perplexica and local AI models running on your own, loathing it is one thing but completely ignoring is another, you shouldn't hate what you don't know.

It gives you access to information in an extremely efficient way though, before AI i was often scrolling through hundreds of forum posts to find the solution to my problems, now i just ask AI and get a straightforward answer. Its a great efficiency tool in general and increases your overall skillsets, sure it wont replace highly skilled people yet but usually those people are only very skilled in one area, AI enables people to increase their baseline of skillsets so anyone can code, write, gather information, etc.

Imo the problem lies in what big corps and governments will do with it and that will fuck us heavily.

I think i created a whole new poptart flavour

This, i hope we just dislike the monopolization of AI here and not the technology in general. Self hosting is the way.

Man, you can hate Musk for many reasons but when he says that the Universe chooses the most ironic outcomes he is right.
