Maybe it is time to stop dismissing UAPs, whether you believe them to be a threat or not.

Cops pause use of flawed AI cameras secretly monitoring streets for suspects

Flawed AI? The real issue with AI is that many people expect it to be infallible. Even when AI performs better than humans, there is a tendency to believe it should be perfect. AI models can never achieve 100% accuracy; however, they often outperform humans and can provide greater visibility of an area than relying on good Samaritans. Face and object recognition systems return percentage matches based on a threshold you set. It’s essential to find a balance between minimizing false positives and avoiding missed matches, which is something that is challenging to achieve with human identification. Therefore, a secondary method of identification will always be necessary, regardless of the technology or people used.

Some projects already built and scheduled for launch might end up in storage

Interesting. Pointed some test code at google to see if new driver works and got a captcha. Guess they do not want anyone scraping them like they do.

Some great tips, but it’s clear he’s rewriting the entire app to add a feature or fix a bug, which I don’t believe most companies will adopt, as they prefer the code to change as little as possible to avoid introducing new bugs. Since most of the work that paid programmers do involves fixing bugs, upgrading versions (like Java 8 to Java 17), and adding features, I foresee AI being an excellent tool for researching new functions instead of googling and clicking on numerous links to find a working example among all the unanswered and incorrectly answered question posts. I see the next step as utilizing tools to read your codebase and requirement documents to build a model that can “understand” your application. This model will collaborate with coding models to generate updates for your codebase and tests for those changes. Perhaps in a decade, management will feel comfortable removing the last human coder, at a senior or lead level, from the loop.

Seeing so many all-or-nothing posts about how AI will replace programmers, I made a post as a long-time programmer who uses these tools and knows their limitations compared to what professional programmers actually do on a daily basis.

I wonder how tariffs on Russian oil that we do not purchase would matter. However, tariffs on the refined oil that enters through the ban loophole might.
