Generative artificial intelligence is set for a “cold shower” in 2024 as costs associated with the technology increase, according to a predictions report from analyst firm CCS Insight out Tuesday. We'll be on to the new-new thing?

A cold shower? They are going to need liquid nitrogen to keep the water cold with all that servers running.

‘Overhyped’ generative AI will get a ‘cold shower’ in 2024, analysts predict
That's the general pattern...

No matter how much you idiot-proof your software, the universe is always creating bigger and bigger idiots.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

The constantly shifting economy is a reminder to technical professionals seeking new roles that change is the only constant. This just in: Duh

Then only wasted day is the day that you learn nothing.
No matter if your are a technical professional or not.

Looking at the growing demand for AI service, it's very likely that energy consumption related to AI will significantly increase in the coming years But it's an intelligent use of all that power, isn't it?

Some 74% are testing generative AI, principles should be adopted to foster trust, according to the firm’s 2023 State of Ethics and Trust in Technology report. But on the bright side, most organizations don't know if they have ethical standards in general

This is our last release candidate. This release includes new NuGet package READMEs for .NET packages, simple CLI-based project evaluation for MSBuild, publishing containers to tar.gz archives, and Tensor Primitives for .NET. What's this do?
System.Numerics.Tensors.TensorPrimitives <-- do we have a new winner for "Longest Package Name"?

As far as I know the winner in that category is still Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.WindowsServer.TelemetryChannel.

The role of the software architect has needed to evolve with the advent of iterative, faster cycle, Agile methodologies delivered in a DevOps-driven culture. Just keep shovelling code at it. Eventually it will work as requested.

After flipping coins over 350,000 times, the largest study of its kind, they found that coins have a slight tendency to land on the same side they started on. Reality is a toss-up
|
|
|
|

I wonder... how many of them landed on the edge? " | " instead of " -- "

So if they change the flip rate of the toss does the result change?
It would actually make more sense to me if they had found that either heads or tails comes up slightly more as the two sides of the coin do not have the same mass when measured from the center of the coin.

1. Coins wear over time, so unless the experimenters used mint-fresh coins, I would expect some variance in the results.
2. As the chance of landing on the preferred side is slightly higher than the chance of landing on the non-preferred side, I would expect the "first" side to turn up more frequently in the full sequence, as a rule.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Just read the article. This is for coins that are caught. What about coins that are allowed to land and bounce around? For a real world example of this look at the coin toss in the NFL. The coin is allowed to land on the field and sometimes bounces.
As for coins that are caught, I discovered as a teenager that I could control the coin flip result by the way I caught it and then displayed the coin. That control was over 90% accurate, so I seriously doubt the randomness of any coin toss that's caught.

Hear me out... What if they get a cat in a box containing a 'diabolical device' to flip the coins?
|
|
|
|
|
Then the toss would always end in both heads and tails. And the cat would have knocked the device off the table.
