Hands-on with Gemini task automation on mobile: it's super impressive despite being very slow and failing at some tasks; it can order food, book Ubers, and more (Allison Johnson/The Verge)

Gemini task automation is slow, clunky, and super impressive
Gemini’s task automation feature on the Samsung S26 and Pixel 10 series is an impressive glimpse at what the future of AI assistants could look like.

Abstract Ancient Oaks
(spotted during yesterday's evening hike, hoping to turn this into a series...)
#NaturePhotography #Tree #Abstract

Photo of a group of ancient and still bare oak trees, their main trunks and branches covered in layers of moss and lichen, some dried orange leaves here and there, but otherwise an abstract gray chaos of branches

A message especially for my Canadian male followers out there today, but it applies to all.
If you see a story from a woman calling out the behaviour of a man, believe them. Yes, believe them over the 'bro’, especially when there are multiple corroborating stories.
Don’t feign impartiality.
Don't ignore.
Just believe them, it's not that hard.
It's long past time we do this as the default.
It will make us all better in the long run.
That is all.

Easily forgotten in this time: #Iran is still controlled by horrible criminals with no respect for the truth, human lives or dignity.

The Iranian women Trump ‘saved’ from execution are simultaneously real and AI-manipulated
Trump claimed to have saved eight Iranian women protesters from execution; Iran accused him of total fabrication. Neither are telling the truth.

This is what Weizenbaum wrote about the dawn of the computer age: it was used as an excuse to not even try to make society better. The same thing is happening with “AI” now.
We know what would make society better.
One example is UBI (which Weizenbaum mentions in the same book in passing as “negative income tax”).
But of course we don’t have universal healthcare or UBI nor really any other advances (perhaps the ADA was a rare win); instead trillions of dollars are invested into software that tells us to bomb schools; for the sole reason to say it was the computers’ fault, not ours.
This book* was written 50 years ago.
