Care to give me more specifics about your VPN request so I can actually validate and show the results? That sure has not been my CoPilot or general ChatGPT experience, I use it for IT and coding requests. I introduced CoPilot for Business to the thread because I have yet to find one Ars user...

Have you used Google in the last 5 years? Unless I'm searching for something very basic such as map directions, I've already phased it out for CoPilot for Business, which retains no training or data and cites it's sources. And doesn't return me 5+ sponsored searches before I find what I want...

I don't think hardly anyone was going to even have a computer expensive and powerful enough to run Recall. It was yet another obviously premature internet freakout where almost nobody remembered the whole part where you needed expensive specs and a specific model of computer to even opt-in...

I think it is important to note that all we have evidence of for now is that Recall will require a very specific and expensive computer + 250gb free space just to opt into it. I also think that CoPilot for Business is the best combination of AI + privacy policy on the market and not many IT...

Stop blaming the media. Anti-journalism is one of those rightwing talking points that they are good at getting the left to adopt their conservative talking points. Unless you were talking about social media, but you weren't. Social media is the problem. People are the problem. "Mainstream"...

I'm aware of that. My point is that I haven't seen an informational CoPilot article on Ars about their privacy policy because it's not feeding into the AI and Big Tech gloom and doom groupthink machine that is social media. And if I DID miss that article, I'm sure didn't have as much engagement...

Ars = social media now. The Superstonk cult is here. Maybe this particular news story where Roaring Kitty may lose access has a point, but in general reading about GME online is nothing but conspiracy fuel. It's yet another net cast to trap people without critical thinking skills. I agree that...

Ugh proving my point above, Ars is basically just social media+ now. CoPilot for Business retains no data, no training. It also cites responses. Why isn't anyone discussing that? Microsoft is in the enterprise business, not the surveillance business (well maybe both, but enterprise is their...

Don't you have to purchase a specific, expensive computer to use this? This Op ED reeks of social media rage bait. I can't wait to see this posted to Reddit with zero interesting comments inside.

I'm adding shares of Spotify tomorrow morning. This is just like Netflix where a dominant technology company receives overwhelming hate and criticism online... because they are the best. They've raised prices 20% in 13 years total, that is not outrageous. My personal anecdote, which is worth...

Congrats on winning over 300 internet points, but your post offer nothing but fallacies in its rhetoric, and little substance. The kind of writing that has completely taken over social online discourse, including Ars. CoPilot with a business license retains no data and uses no prompts or...

No, it's not just about the UN; you are the same likes who hasn't figured out that Russia has been psy-opping the progressives almost as badly as MAGA since 2015 or earlier. It's been Putin's playbook for over 25 years and now social media makes it easier than ever. Since I invoked Trump's name...

You can see the same degradation of intelligent posting on Ars that was noticeable from Reddit starting a good ten years ago. You know who undermines the United Nations and spreads propaganda to undermine the UN and wants you, the public, to help them do the same on social media? Fascists and...

If your idea of "modern" is the past 60+ years then sure. This is conservatism, not a Republican problem, not a Trump problem, not a US-isolated problem.

AI in 2023 is the first time Arstechnica has made me feel more like I'm on Reddit than on Hacker News, and I hate it. Are you sure you haven't caved to media sensationalism? The same people upvoting and commenting on here similar to you will also swear that OpenAI has no guardrails, for one...

So what you are saying is that there are guardrails that a user has to figure out how to remove. I was pointing out that there are guardrails, despite the original suggestion that AI companies don't care about guardrails. Something tells me we aren't going to come to agreement here. Reading...

I generally agree, companies don't want regulation, and regulating is one of the purposes of a functional government. But I use GPT and it has so many guardrails it's annoying and obviously hindered. My point isn't to debate the effectiveness of the rails, just to correct you and the majority of...

This hits the nail on the head and is so well said. I've been trying to drive this point on Reddit ever since 2016, but I usually include more swear words and feelings of hopelessness. Social media trains people to be reactive, strongly opinionated on everything, cynical, etc. Forget AI, this is...

Cool now do a survey on the threat that is social media, because I'm pretty sure we aren't coming back from this disaster.

Your only downvote came from me, an Ohio resident. It is so easy to see Vance being more toxic than Jordan just give in 5 - 10 years. They push so hard right that Kasich is an alleged moderate now on the national scale. Just call everyone for who they are: a conservative. Conservatism has long...
