@glyph I think they mean "funformation", which is like information but more plausible and easier to read.

@dandean @glyph The buck stops with us, but not the blame.

@baconandcoconut but what if your ears were all of civilization

I suppose I might as well ask, this is part of an email that Google sent me informing me that “[I’m] now using Gemini on [my] Apple device”, and I would like to know *where* I am doing that so I can shut that shit off, I definitely did not enable it on purpose

@glyph Last I read Apple selected Google to be their AI provider.

[rooneymcnibnug@mastodon.social]

@glyph its fucking exhausting. I want to scream.

[glyph@mastodon.social]

@VW_Guy Apple Intelligence is off on all my devices, so I don't think that's it.

[jay@oldos.me]

@glyph I literally got this message the other day when I told it to set a reminder to take my medicine.

[mage_of_chaos@mastodon.social]

@glyph THAT'S the issue though, it's not a replacement for human judgment or professional foresight or insight!!

That's not what it was designed for.

@glyph

"entertainment"

[misty@digipres.club]

@glyph @VW_Guy I don’t think that has actually shipped yet, either.

@glyph Could this be the thing where chrome downloads a 4GB local model unless you use an option in settings://system to disable it? I found it had automatically turned on for me on MacOS whateverI’musing.

[encthenet@flyovercountry.social]

@glyph
I mean, maybe that's better than copilot being only for entertainment purposes?

[aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@encthenet @glyph how

[tortuguita@sfba.social]

@glyph I got that email after clicking past the popup on Google Maps app back in March
No way to decline, of course

[glyph@mastodon.social]

@tortuguita ah, I did accidentally trigger google maps navigation while driving recently so perhaps it opted me in

[gokushrm@mastodon.social]

@glyph why not just delete it from device?

[gimulnautti@mastodon.green]

@glyph Motherfucking rich spoiled motherfuckers can’t even write.

[dotyk@mastodon.social]

@glyph Tyler Durden once said that if you mix #orange juice and #gasoline, you'll get #napalm.

Here's the #info, and don't tell me you don't want to talk to Tyler.

@glyph note that „information” can be true or not. Yes, Gemini is informational - can give you some information. And the quote says it’s not a reliable source of information - so the information will or will not be true.
