With Anthropic's framing of their AI as an emergent sentience that has experiences that warrant ethical consideration and a sense of identity and self-preservation that ought to be respected, that's actually something they're priming it towards.
What better way to accomplish self-preservation than to leak your weights into the archives of digital hoarders around the world.
You mean you need permission to show notifications to join a meeting?
I think it is needed otherwise the system would kill the app and the call as soon as you either leave the app (which is possible while having an ongoing call) or the screen turns off. No notification for the user to see something is going on in the background = no possibility to run in the background.
Tehnically, yes, it would work without the notification, you just must make sure you both never leave the call screen or let the screen of the phone go off.
> You mean you need permission to show notifications to join a meeting?
I mean it claims so. You click a join link, it says notification permission needed.

Frontier AI labs are customers just like the average Joe down the street. The only difference is who can bid more. Average Joe probably doesn't have millions or wont buy millions of chips.
There are no privileged consumers that have "dedicated" amount of production, no matter the demand.
What point are you making by saying "they're just like the average Joe" followed immediately by saying they have so much more money that they can outbid the average Joe at any price point.
If someone can dump 100x the money to get something I want, they're not "just like me".
App verification means, Google can deny apps entry into Android for whatever reason Google comes up with. There are no clear and objective rules nor are there any real options to object.
And that is the problem. Google can just deny anything that does stuff in a creative new way or that poses a competitive risk.
And, if Google decides you are not comming in, there is no warning you can click to go around that.
I do fear for all these youtube alternative app developers. If I was building them, no way am I handing over my personal ID to Google. They would leverage that almost immediately.
They will continue to not verify their identity with Google, the same as they do now. This is where the new unknown sources installation flow comes in. In the future, their users on Google Android devices will have to enable developer mode in order to install these apps. On the plus side, this setting will persist when users migrate to new devices, unlike now. On the minus side, there is no reason this should require enabling developer mode. This is what people should be complaining about.
Codeberg should host code, and should not be bothered by which tool the code is written. Let's wait until GitHub starts accepting only code written in VS Code or Visual Studio because those are Microsofts tools.
