5 ways to kill browsing distractions with ADHD | Vivaldi Browser
If youâre brimming with creativity but struggling with ADHD, productivity tools can help you focus. Here are some useful tools on our browser.Devina Agarwal (Vivaldi Technologies)
After watching OpenAI's presentation and, even more, an excerpt from Google's presentation yesterday, I asked myself: is this AI, according to the big tech companies (especially Google - for OpenAI it's their core business, so I understand their perspective), truly what users want and need, or is it just another method to lock people into using their technologies, which are not easily self-hostable?
I'm not arguing for or against it, but I noticed that (almost) the entire Google I/O yesterday was focused on this...

Google I/O 2024 Reactions: Will AI Search Destroy YOUR Website Traffic?
Google I/O is here! I just finished the keynote, and I have a LOT of thoughts. Weâre seeing some fun demonstrations of Gemini services. New ways to help people sort and organize their informaâŠSomeGadgetGuy
Watching #GoogleIO and there are some cool demonstrations of data center cloud computing, but there's also this fog of dystopia surrounding these demos.
The announcements for search are horrifying. Google is full mask off.
Phrases like "search for something, and we'll collect all this data for you" basically equates to:
"We sucked up ALL the data from people who really did the work, and we're going to give you the results of their hard work, but we wont take you to the site that generated the data. You can stay on the search page, and the site's traffic will plummet."
This is shocking.

If you design a system such that you cannot differentiate people from corporations and bots and thatâs your defense for calling all of them âusersâ, youâve designed a system that conflates people â who are mortal, have feelings, can feel pain and be hurt and who have human rights that must be protected â with the very entities that oftentimes exist to exploit them.
Design for people. Call them people. All else is secondary.

Some said the priest avatar was inappropriate, misleading, or just plain creepy. Some said the priest simulated virtual sacraments â indeed, âFr. Justinâ gladly heard The Pillarâs, âconfession,â before giving some spiritual guidance and reciting the words of absolution. And some said that an AI apologetics project leans too heavily into unreliable, controversial, and still-confusing technology.
