A private school in London is opening the UK's first classroom taught by artificial intelligence instead of human teachers. They say the technology allows for precise, bespoke learning while critics argue AI teaching will lead to a "soulless, bleak future".

The UK's first "teacherless" GCSE class, using artificial intelligence instead of human teachers, is about to start lessons.

David Game College, a private school in London, opens its new teacherless course for 20 GCSE students in September.

The students will learn using a mixture of artificial intelligence platforms on their computers and virtual reality headsets.

Check your genitalia because conservatives have labeled you.

It's about delivery. What they're doing is lying to people, and then dumping them randomly in downtowns or in places unprepared to provide services. Not to mention, the cost of this political theater is significantly more than just... You know, helping them directly.

If this was done with actual humanitarian goals and compassion, states can coordinate and actually help people.

You don't think once Lemmy hits mainstream, companies won't start polluting Lemmy and harvest data here?

I was at a tech conference job fair and chatting with a bunch of former game programmers.

I absolutely messed up when I asked one guy who worked on a famous game why they decided to do X feature, and if that was the reason for the game's failure.

He looked me in the eyes and said something like, "I get orders from the business execs. So even if their ideas are obviously bad, if I don't do it, I get replaced. After the game is released, good or bad, I get replaced. If the game doesn't even get enough funding, I get replaced."

Gaming industry seems so toxic.

Remember when Donald Trump fired experts and specialists at all levels of government and put in people who bribed him or provided him favors? And to this day, we are still rolling back a lot of their initiatives?

My wife loved the idea that I was into wood cutting. What she didn't realize was when I said woodcutting, I meant I studied the blade and practiced chopping wood with my anime sword.

The songs that the AI CEO provided to Smith originally had file names full of randomized numbers and letters such as "n_7a2b2d74-1621-4385-895d-b1e4af78d860.mp3," the DOJ noted in its detailed press release.

When uploading them to streaming platforms, including Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube Music, the man would then change the songs' names to words like "Zygotes," "Zygotic," and "Zyme Bedewing," whatever that is.

The artist naming convention also followed a somewhat similar pattern, with names ranging from the normal-sounding "Calvin Mann" to head-scratchers like "Calorie Event," "Calms Scorching," and "Calypso Xored."

To manufacture streams for these fake songs, Smith allegedly used bots that stream the songs billions of times without any real person listening. As with similar schemes, the bots' meaningless streams were ultimately converted to royalty paychecks for the people behind them.

¥1590/month.

Rough $11/month in freedom dollars. That's not bad!

Still pricey for a solo use. What is your use cases? Lurking or a frequent poster?

They literally explained their backstory.

They rub one out then reply. It's not rocket science.

Every time I see this implemented, it always seems like screwing over the end user who is trying to join for the first time. Platforms like reddit and Tumblr benefit from a friction-free sign up system.

Imagine how challenging it is for someone joining Lemmy for the first time and suddenly having to provide trust elements like answering a few questions, or getting someone to vouch for them.

They'll run away and call Lemmy a walled garden.

Sequence of events:

  1. Lightning-Saddleback made a 911 call at 12:28 a.m. stating he was being followed by a group of people who wanted to harm him.

  2. In an interaction captured by the officer's in-car video system, the two spoke about the situation, and the victim gave the officer a machete and a knife that he had in his possession.

  3. The officer determined that the victim was at risk and attempted to arrest him.

  4. The victim panicked and ran. He was struck by gunfire and fell to the ground.
