‘Nightmare fodder’: Roku’s AI slop channel is even worse than expected

Fairground TV is a 24/7 channel devoted to low-quality AI content for viewers sick of watching real people move in ways that won’t haunt you The appeal of Roku is that, whatever you happen to want to watch, there will almost certainly be a live channel for it. Just want to watch Little House on the Prairie ? There’s a channel for it. Just want to watch Duck Dynasty? There’s a channel for that too. Purely want to watch nothing but local news from Wisconsin? Guess what: there’s a channel for that too. But despite this wealth, a section of the population was still to see its needs fulfilled. What about people who hate plot and vision and the sight of people speaking convincing dialogue that synchronises perfectly with the movement of their lips? What about the people who just want to watch an unyielding torrent of eerily weightless nightmare fodder? Well, good news. Roku has finally caught up. Continue reading...

Unable to access files in /mnt/data — both Python and container tools return ClientError

Unable to access files in /mnt/data — both Python and container tools return ClientError

’m experiencing an issue with the local execution environment in ChatGPT. I have a Parquet file uploaded to the project at: /mnt/data/ts_target(1).pq Previously, ChatGPT was able to read and analyze Parquet files from /mnt/data normally. However, it is now unable to access this file at all. The problem does not appear to be related to the Parquet file itself, because the error occurs before any Parquet parsing takes place. For example, even very basic operations such as: checking whether /mnt/data/ts_target(1).pq exists; listing the file with ls ; accessing /mnt/data through the Python execution environment; all immediately fail with: ClientError I also tried using a separate local/container execution path, and it returned the same ClientError . Therefore, this seems to be an issue with the ChatGPT local execution environment, sandbox, or /mnt/data file mounting/access layer rather than with the contents or schema of the Parquet file. The file is still shown as uploaded and its expected path is: /mnt/data/ts_target(1).pq Could you please help investigate: Why the execution environment can no longer access files under /mnt/data ? Whether the sandbox/file mount for this conversation or project is currently broken. Whether the execution environment can be reset or reinitialized without requiring me to re-upload all of my project files. This is particularly important because I have multiple large Parquet datasets already uploaded to this ChatGPT project, and they were previously…

Google’s Pixel Watch 5 dives deeper into AI and health

The $399 Google Pixel Watch 5 isn't about the hardware. Sure, there's a new satin pyrite case finish, a few new strap colors, and a Steph Curry Special Edition. Under the hood, there's a slightly faster Qualcomm processor and an itty-bitty battery bump. There's a $50 price hike from last year, too, because the Pixel […]

Google is making the Pixel cameras better by making them worse
