  • Possible Mac Pro 'compute module' discovered in iOS 16.4 code

    9secondkox29secondkox2
    Next gen afterburner card? LOL

    Not needed with Apple Silicon. 

    The compute module finding sounds a lot like full SOC packaged in a module that can be plugged into a communications fabric as some of us have been posting. 

    The evidence is mounting. 

    If it keeps going and apple actually ships what we think they’ll ship, the world will freak. And it will be awesome. 

    A great many people who could not justify a max pro in the past will surely be able to with the modular horsepower expansion opening up major possibilities.

    What’s really concerning is the fact that this “si” is just stealing other people’s work? 

    Where does it source the info? Google? It’s own search and skim engine? 

    Why does at not always attribute credit and provide links to the source material?

    same thing with the so called graphic and web stuff. Where do they get their textures, reference materials, etc. 

    this isn’t really ai. Yet. 

    It’s just mashups of text and imagery and code. 

    Waiting on the lawsuits…
    Interesting... when I give answers to questions I rarely cite my source material.  I just answer the question.  Unless the question is, "can you cite your source on that?"
    The difference would be that you aren’t a tool? And you aren’t charging money? 

    Google is a tool. You automatically get the source because Google links to it, even when Google puts up s summary. If you consult s book, you get citations. Even presentations include a bibliography. If they want to avoid plagiarism. Conversations between humans are different. It’s s conversation. 

    And though internet tool like ai mashup machines pretend to be in conversation, they are still tools, publishing information to your screen. 

    Likewise, paintings, graphics, and code that these tools steal are not free rein material. They were created by people’s hard work and other resources. Such use is fine for personal entertainment , but not for commercial/professional use. 

    Also, In a personal conversation, you’re allowed to be wrong. In a professional conversation, your answer can cost you your credibility, your client, and even your job. 

    Microsoft adding this to their tools may prove problematic. It’s irresponsible for such a big company to provide not only tools that will get many things wrong, but that amount to plagiarism fueled mashups. 

    You can say whatever you want, with right or wrong answers and communicating knowledge gained from a variety of sources without atteibution. But when you publish your words, it’s s different story. Likewise, it’s s different story when you are a consultant with people looking to you for answers. 

    These are not people, they are query based tools built by people that publish information for profit in a variety of ways, from website plugins to Microsoft money, to paid online accounts, etc. 

    if it’s completely free and for personal entertainment, again, great. But if you pay for it and it’s supposed to be published fact, not a good scenario.

  • Engineer makes dual-port iPhone by adding USB-C

    9secondkox29secondkox2
    What’s hilarious is the perception that Apple is being painted as “forced” to add USB C to its hardware when they are the first to really push the standard. Too bad they only applied that push to laptops and did it halfway as that confused the market and led to a backtrack. Now we will finally see it iPhones and iPads. 

    Apple milked the royalties as much as they could, but even now, lightning is eclipsed by USB C and Apple is behind in that arena. I’m sure they’ll still find a way to get royalties, though it will be optional, likely with a consumer trust badge of some sort.
