Can we train an AI to play their quiz game?

While it’s widely believed that the Windows 11 24H2 is more about AI, this is not entirely true. Windows 11 2024 Update has several other features, including a new API that could help apps run faster. Yes, please

Sounds like a missing puzzle piece I'd wondered about with AI/.NET/Win and what we would see so far as a lightweight GPU-access mechanism for AI and other GPU workloads. Looks more than a little bit like DirectX (all the 'd3dx').
I'd assume this new API might be usable from a nuget soon enough but I only got so far as "victimizing doorbells" when trying to find something more concrete so far as a potential workload scenario/example.
This pitches it like it doesn't have anything to do with AI and is about graphics. But it distinctly sounds like it's all about AI/CUDA/GPU-processing that has nothing to do with "graphics" so far as what's rendering on screen.

Maybe if the general development didn't go in "pfff, hardware is so mighty now, that we do not need to keep code clean or focus on performance"...

They are not more likely to do it, they are less interrupted so they do it.

Before WordPerfect, the most popular work processor was WordStar. Now, the last ever DOS version has been bundled and set free by one of its biggest fans. ^KS

Well now, maybe George R R Martin can finally finish the books people have been waiting years for. I'm not one of them, the only author I read/listen to with 1000 page books is Stephen King.
Also, the other two authors mentioned in the story are both "pinin' for the fjords".
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

Windows SmartScreen and Smart App Control both have weaknesses of which to be wary How is it possible to outsmart it? There's "Smart" right there in the name.

And that's why I avoid "Smart" thing like pest if I can
as in "I bring a lot of staff that nobody asked for and I have to developed so fast to keep pace, that nobody gives a crap about security, performance and / or robustness

Elon Musk asks court to void Microsoft’s exclusive deal with OpenAI. Obvious joke is obvious

Is that really so difficult?

What a weird ride. I'd only vaguely been playing along.
I like Musk's defense against the robot overlords even if I don't generally like him very much at all.
But AGI? They're talking like models should/could/would ever be conflated with AGI (artificial general intelligence)?
They're almost definitely a component, but I'd say models will only ever be a component of AGI. They are not themselves anything but fancy spreadsheets.

Microsoft is making security its top priority, and employees will now have to start delivering. That's one way to get their attention (hopefully)
Yeah, kind of reported already, but it's now official
