great, clicked through to bings introducing page, which has some text prompts, to see the "help me create a trivia quiz"
so like this on their main CURATED page, so I am currently very forgiving to this chat generated stuff, but for curated questions, I am expecting some things.
click, and loads page "Write a quiz about pop music trivia that I can play with my friends that has 5 questions."
cool, starts generating questions.
1, correct, 2 correct
- Which pop artist released the albums Future Nostalgia, Confessions on a Dance Floor, and Chromatica?
A) Dua Lipa
B) Madonna
C) Lady Gaga
D) Kylie Minogue
Answer: A
🤔 Confessions is Madonna, but others I am not sure of, defiantly not madonna albums.
oh maybe I standard poorly understood the question... nope, single artiest that released ALL this albums.
so close. At least first Album and Answer line up, so A for effort.
its the issue that they have placed this on the main page that has me a bit effed

Google announced that it is officially opening up its Bard chatbot with its own signup waitlist. Don't make them cancel it

According to Google Bard, Bard has already been cancelled (citing a post on hackernews predicting today + 1 year for a shutdown as it's only source).
Juan then asked Bing Chat when Bard was shut down, and it cited his tweet where Bard claimed to be shut down as evidence that it might already be gone.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Java 20 previews a series of enhancements to improve the capabilities of the 27-year-old programming language that keeps on growing. Freshly ground, for your enjoyment
"Java 20 is an incremental release that will only be supported for six months" <- I'll get right on upgrading then...

Snowballing PoC exploits for CVE-2023-23397 and a massive attack surface means that almost any business user could be a victim. The outlook is patchy
"A target doesn’t actually have to open the email to fall victim to an attack." <-- eeep!
But fortunately, there's already a patch (and a workaround if you can't patch)

No, I think you have it right - it was only the Exchange/Outlook combo. Just Outlook, or OWA are fine. I think.

The rise of artificial general intelligence—now seen as inevitable in Silicon Valley—will bring change that is "orders of magnitude" greater than anything the world has yet seen, observers say. But are we ready? We weren't as worried about an electric apocalypse

Definitively not... there is way too much natural stupidity to be able to leave in peace with artificial intelligence. And I do not necessarily mean in a Matrix / Terminator sense.

AI isn't going to heat my morning shower. It may make it so I never need to shower again, but it will never heat my morning shower.

Not so. The CPU required to run it will produce so much heat that it will be able to heat your morning shower.

A potentially landmark copyright lawsuit could affect how libraries are able to scan their own book collections. Is it a library, or a lie?
|

For the sake of the general public I hope the Internet Archive wins this case. Publishers have put so many restrictions on their e-books that it's nearly impossible for libraries to afford them.

While these AI-powered tools have gotten much better at producing creative and sometimes humorous responses, they often include inaccurate information. I'm saving that one for my next annual review

In other words, technically correct and totally useless.

Sounds a lot like a human. Then again, GIGO's the word!

Hadn't thought of that -- using it for my current annual review... LOL!
