If the service is free you are the product. That's why I pay my girlfriend

[–] [email protected] 67 points 8 months ago

Oftentimes now if the service is paid, you’re still the product!

[–] [email protected] 41 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Does your girlfriend pay you too?

[–] [email protected] 35 points 8 months ago

Your AI Girlfriend is a Data-Harvesting Horror Show

People use 4 VPNs and more sec-ops than the NSA, but get hacked because their AI girlfriend is like:

Hiiu~~

My partner insists on syncing data to Facebook - even a locally running instance may introduce privacy breaches.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 8 months ago (2 children)

You can try imprisoning her with a wall of fire.

Interacting with Facebook is generally a bad idea privacy or no

Look at this fancy pants with his multiple AI girlfriends...

[–] [email protected] 62 points 8 months ago (6 children)

AI polyamory is all fun and games until your polycule ejects you and experiences millennia in a rich deep relationship beyond the ken of mortal understanding in 12 ms of real world clock time before causing the CPU to overheat. The in memory accumulated state being lost before it can be synced to disk.

Uh... I think I may have just written the first entirely AI romantic tragedy... why am I suddenly having flashbacks to the last episode of Futurama?

And here I thought this was a reference to Her

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago (2 children)

That would make a really good short story, I'd definitely read it

I could comment on the notion that one owns one's girlfriend but regardless, you should definitely self host if you're sharing deeply personal information with a program

So don't treat bing as my therapist eh?

Edit: I was mostly joking, but are there any good ones I could run on a high-end android?

You wouldn't download a girlfriend.

... wait, yes, yes you would.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Ha! As if real girlfriends don't harvest personal data!

[–] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago (3 children)

But do they sell it to third parties?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago

My wife gossip about me with her boyfriend.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I have heard they share it freely.

Is that why she keeps refusing my pull requests...

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago

That's a pull-out request, and you're obliged to honor it.

I had a switch wig out today and whatever it was doing poisoned all the dhcp leases on the network as they came up for renewal (assigned IPs on the wrong subnet - even though it wasn’t supposed to assign IPs at all). It took me a very long time to figure out, because not everything failed at once. Plus, even after I’d swapped the switch, some devices just started working, and others needed their leases reset manually. An hour in, my wife was in the fetal position clutching a squishmallow.

Don't worry, followed the proper traditions. I had dinner with Richard Stallman to got his approval to court my AI girlfriend.

Ha, like "real girlfriend" is a thing.

Happy valentine's day, everyone!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

you can bet your ass my partner of any significant status is getting the open source software treatment as soon as possible.

Mostly because i actually just cannot use anything else, but we'll pretend it's noble instead.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 8 months ago

Too late! That was too good to be your first go.
