That’s annoying (or at least, takes some work) to set up, and more expensive.
Out of order cameras are basically (sometimes literally) free, need no wiring work, and don’t “accidentally” record any embarrassing / private moments you then have to delete !
Hot take : almost no one actually needs security cameras in their home.
For the very few who do, visible fake cameras do 95% of the job of real cameras with none of the drawbacks.
EDIT : I’ll go even further and say an official looking sticker / plaque that says something like “this house has cameras” does at least 50% of the work already.
I have been thinking of adding a license clause to everything I make (code especially) that makes any AI trained on it my sole exclusive property, but I don’t know how defensible that would be in court ?
Or any other sort of trap clause. But again, I don’t know how to word it. Like “this makes your model public domain” or “you grant a free worldwide unlimited license to every human on earth”.
Something that makes the mere inclusion of the code in a training data set into absolute legal poison to the would-be owners.
I am not a lawyer, not even slightly…
We could have made work optional some time during the last century. The only reason we haven’t yet is people like him.
Tax shareholders 100%. No more shareholders.
Also WHY would we want robots to do the work for us ? The problem is generally the working conditions, not the mere fact people have to do it.
I would have personally approved of a trillion dollar project to make sure this plan DOES NOT happen.
But he’s going to steal all the money anyway, and use it to escape to Mars, only to die on the launch pad when the rocket predictably explodes…
Nowadays I’m even starting to find it annoying on a browser with adblock, but without NoScript ! Quite a bit of nonsense disappears when you take the few seconds to only enable the scripts a page actually needs
Also, YouTube specifically is a horrible experience without an extension like UnTrap to turn like 75% of the buttons off.
We really need to teach everyone to use ad blockers. Ads have not existed on “my” internet since the 2000s…
This sounds an awful lot like idolatry to me, which is supposedly forbidden in Christianity.
Bitcoin has at best 5 years left until quantum computers just destroy the cryptography they use, so they are right to look for an escape.
I just wish they realized how futile this all is.
