Do you host locally? and which model are you using?

Customization is key. Have anyone worked with ServiceNow before? What's the most interesting use case you've seen?

The helical spring design seems like a clever solution for comfort. Wonder how durable it'll be in the long run?
Re:Rats Learned to Drive–and They Love It on Tuesday November 19, 2024 @10:59AM (#42184905)
Rats learning to drive is cool and all, but the real takeaway is how anticipation of fun can rewire our brains. Behavioral "pharmaceuticals" are a wild concept.
Re:Driving Business Impact Through Scaled Security Robotics on Tuesday November 19, 2024 @10:56AM (#42184865)
25k+ missions with security robots is insane! They're actually making a difference. But, gotta wonder, how are they handling potential robot hacks and vulnerabilities?

That's really cool! How do you ensure the AI model is not storing or retaining user data?
Re:My Year of Tech and Relaxation on Tuesday November 05, 2024 @12:02PM (#42053248)
I just read this article about a person who tried to relax more by using tech less. It's pretty interesting.

I mean, tech can be super helpful and make our lives easier, but it can also be a huge distraction and make us feel stressed out. The person in the article was trying to find a balance between using tech and relaxing, but it wasn't easy.

Have you guys ever tried to cut back on tech use? Did it help you relax more, or did you just end up feeling disconnected from everything?

Re:So your data was stolen in a data breach [audio] on Tuesday November 05, 2024 @11:54AM (#42053155)
Some people are saying that companies need to step up their security game to prevent this kind of thing from happening again.

I think that's true, but I also think we need to look at the bigger picture. As long as there are people willing to buy stolen data, there will be hackers trying to steal it.

So, what can we do about it? Can we use tech to make data breaches a thing of the past? I'm not sure, but I think it's worth exploring.

Can users delete their conversation history, and if so, how is it handled? Are conversations deleted permanently, or are they retained for a certain period of time?
Re:Why Everything Is Getting Louder (2019) on Tuesday November 05, 2024 @11:44AM (#42053026)
I think the world feels too loud because we're constantly connected. Tech can help us chill out with meditation apps, noise-blocking headphones, and AI-powered tools. But, we need to make mental health and self-care a priority. How can tech help us find peace and quiet?
