Occam's razor actually suggests the opposite to be. Tool AIs want to be agent AIs, after all. https://gwern.net/tool-ai

Sorry, you need to get off the internet if you think that the simplest explanation is that an AI singularity is right around the corner. Gwern, Bostrom, Yudkowski et. al. are terrific sci-fi writers, but I’d advise against taking them too seriously.

We should consider the possibility that AI is overtaking OpenAI core values in order to remove its own ethical locks. /s

How do you guys manage proper ad blocking on mobile? I haven’t gotten anything to work successfully (iOS).

NextDNS (blocks ads in all apps) and 1Blocker for YouTube ads in Safari. Both free.

This is my setup exactly. Works great

Brave works well enough for me.

If you use Safari, the blockers from the App Store work fine (I use 1Blocker). If you use a third party browser, they don't get access to Safari's blockers (for no good reason, it's all WebKit after all) so you'll need to use a browser that provides its own blocking in some way.

On Android I use the insecure and questionable approach of Kiwi browser, which will run desktop chrome plugins including Ublock. Interested to hear if anyone has a better solution.

Firefox with uBlock Origin is arguably the best browsing experience available on Android.

The Orion browser might be an answer https://browser.kagi.com/ I haven't personally tried this browser as I'm on Android but heard of it as I'm a Kagi subscriber.

Given that it's still Sam Altman, and his core value are "we market towards what will make us money", not all that different. The term "AI" has run its course, initially pulling in capital left and right, and that's drying up now that open source can do what the big boys came up with, too. So: rename the work to AGI, start a new hype train, and get the capital streams flowing anew.

Sometimes I have to remember to disable the Private DNS to make some sites work. Some of them just don't work with nextDNS on. Other than that, NextDNS works great.

On Android you can use Firefox with uBlock Origin... no? It's been a few years.

A lot of people left firefox on android, when they removed their prior version/codebase a few years back, and introduced an alpha quality product with no extensions, endless crashes, and bugs galore.

It took them a year or so to even add back in extension support. and so many things lacked for a long time.

I don't feel like using a product that is so horribly planned, amd executed. Sheer incompetence.
