Google is testing a new CAPTCHA that asks you to make hand gestures on camera
13h 54m ago in technology from cybernews.comThere's some pretty obvious middle ground before making a deposit to the First National Bank of My Mattress. You could find a different bank that doesn't use those captchas, or even do all your banking in person.
Trump Team Dumps Bleach in Reflecting Pool to Hide Renovation Failure
1d 1h ago in politics from newrepublic.comFunny thing is, the reflecting pool has pumps and filters, they're just in disrepair (along with a bunch of other infrastructure-level stuff). Instead of actually addressing the root cause of the issue, Trump decided to give it the ol landlord special and slap a coat of paint on it.
Lol you're really underselling how difficult it is to write cheats.
There's still quite a few ways to detect that kind of thing though, both automatically and manually. At the end of the day, if enough people report the 3 day old account for hitting flicks like Carpe, it's gonna get banned pretty quick. And if a few escape through the cracks, well, like I told the other person, I'd rather lose to a cheater occasionally than install malware on my computer.
SBMM can be a good solution as well, but I believe that should be a separate, opt-in thing. Matchmade games always tend to lean more competitive/sweaty/sometimes toxic, whereas games without matchmaking are usually more casual-friendly. I think it's nice when games give you the choice.
The line is gonna be fuzzy, and based on multiple systems, both automated and manual, and none of it will be perfect. But at the end of the day, it's a fucking video game. I'd rather lose occasionally to a cheater than install malware on my computer.
Know thy enemy
You wouldn't necessarily need machine learning, but you would need some sort of heuristics algorithm that checks a player's inputs to ensure they look like real human inputs. I'm sure the auto-aim mouse pad makes microadjustments or sudden changes that aren't feasible for a human to make, and that sort of stuff is readily detectable.
Jeff Bezos's Prometheus raises $12B to build an 'artificial general engineer' for the physical world
5d 14h ago in technology from techcrunch.comCouple different layers of joke, actually.
The first is that they didn't actually misread $12B as $128, but saying so is a cheeky reference to how B and 8 look similar.
The second is sort of an attempt at absurdist humor. Obviously $128 is not going to get you very far towards building a physical AI engineer, and that question violates our rational expectations in a way that some find humorous.

Ah, now that brings me back to my college days...
9d 6h ago in fuck_ai from media.piefed.socialI had a class where I wrote a ~70 page report for the midterm project, and a ~120 page report for the final project. My lab partner and I had to pull all nighters for both, and I drank an entire 2-liter of mountain dew to stay awake to finish the final project's report. This was before I even had any machine learning or AI classes, so having AI write it wasn't even an option to me.
All that to say, kids these days are soft 😤
