A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I asked Google Bard whether it thought Web Environment Integrity was a good or bad idea. Surprisingly, not only did it respond that it was a bad idea, it even went on to urge Google to drop the proposal.

To assume otherwise would be incorrect with the data we have currently. You shouldn't assume something is doing more than it is until it can prove it. Otherwise, you get rocks that keep tigers away.

I think to assume what you assume is also incorrect given current data.

And that’s my entire point…. What is it doing? How what it’s doing is different from a mind or intelligence?

Like our brains and minds evolved to “fill in the blank”. For many situations, due to survival and millions of years of selection. So what is the actual difference?

I’m not saying it’s “conscious”, but why is it not a mind?
