#30DayChartChallenge Day2 Slope – Google search interest in “How to remove Meta AI from Whatsapp”.
As Meta AI’s chatbot is being rolled out across Europe, many users are wondering how they can turn it off. I found myself googling it too. At the moment, there is no way to deactivate it though, leaving quite a few users upset https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/whatsapp-users-react-meta-ai_uk_67e6730ee4b0f69ef1d3351e

“The Trumpian lie is different. It is the power lie or the bully lie. It is the lie of the bigger kid who took your hat and is wearing it while denying that he took it. There is no defense…because the point of the lie is to assert power…” https://kottke.org/25/03/the-bully-lie

When Signal was designed, our threat model was protecting the communications of civil society, journalists, just regular citizens ...
The threat model of military operations & sharing your hate of Europeans was not what Signal was designed for. Ephemeral messages and cryptographic deniability are not fit for communications that require accountability.
But I appreciate their effort to make government more efficient by adding journalists to the chat instead of requiring to go through FOIA.

It’s not you, people are becoming dumber based on the results of cognitive tests. People across age groups are doing worse on tests for reasoning, problem-solving, and information-processing skills.
34% of U.S. adults scored at the lowest level for numeric skills in 2023. Up from 29% in 2022.
Similar to how we became less fit with the rise of office work, I expect this trend to worsen as we rely more on AI to do our thinking. We may have passed peak human intelligence.

You've got a monopoly on lemonade because you pay all the grocery stores to be the default lemonade. So we're going to force you sell your car. What's with the weird redirect? If the monopoly is directly caused by paying the grocery stores for placement, then stop that part. We can see this exact redirect happening in the ruling in the U.S.

The Monopoly GO mobile game making $2.6 billion a year from in-app purchases is nuts. This is likely more than the board game ever made in single year sales.
Also wild that 30% of that goes straight to Google & Apple before taxes. For TikTok, that’s almost $2 billion in App Store fees.

Just learned about the difference between a labyrinth and a maze, and now I am questioning everything. So, the movie was a lie? The difference? Mazes branch. Labyrinths are a single path with no branching.
