  • Yes, I do honestly want a computer I can command with my voice. One that understands my needs and the context of the things I say.

    However…

    • That PC should not be tethered to the cloud. It must be capable of doing all that on its own.
    • It should not fold me into some subscription model to some corporate entity.
    • It should be open source and under my control, not opaque and subject to the whims of a corporate entity.
    • No, it doesn’t have to be FOSS. I would pay for it, once. It just needs to be OSS.













  • It’s not a perspective. It just is.

    It’s not complicated at all. The AI hype is just surrounded with heaps of wishful thinking, like the paper you mentioned (side note; do you know how many papers on string theory there are? And how many of those papers are actually substantial? Yeah, exactly).

    A computer is incapable of becoming your new self aware, evolved, best friend simply because you turned Moby Dick into a bunch of numbers.
