In this week's regular video, I talked about the new model laptops and which models to select. I biased towards machines with NPUs and discrete GPUs. In other words I recommend newer more powerful machines. But if you're not interested in some AI companion that Big tech is pushing, why is this needed?
I will tell you some surprising uses that you may not realize today but this will be great timesavers. I will also talk about AI in general and how even current local AI has limitations but it is solvable.
But to utilize all these require the proper computer.
Something very basic that the average person does not care about even if they knew about it. Your every click on a website is tracked. Every single one. How does this work? Surprisingly easy enough to understand yet apparently no one wants to explain this.
There are ways around this for the privacy conscious but the mechanics of the tracking has to be fully understood.
A rant. The most irritating thing for those of us who are privacy conscious are comments like "what are you hiding?" or "as long as you follow the law who cares?" or "you're paranoid".
I'm sure I'm not alone on this. Well, if you get irritated by this, then there is nothing wrong with you. Ignore these NPCs but you also need a smart understanding of why you do need to care and why these NPCs are the ones who are wrong.
The intent to scan content to counter end-to-end encryption is no longer theoretical with the passing of the UK Online Safety Bill.
How would the OS makers then build in client-side scanning? Let's tackle a theoretical project to do this on your favorite operating system (Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android).
This would be how I would do it.
@robbraxman I've been watching you for a few years, but your latest video is the best. Keep going! I am really glad we still have content creators like you!
@robbraxman Lunduke have a main page(lunduke.com) where he post links where people can follow. Maybe you should do one like this.
