This is actually a google account feature called “auto signin”. If you go to google password manager and click on the settings button in the top right there should be an option called Auto Sign-in you can disable.

Negotiations for what? YouTubers have pretty much no say in how YouTube runs and they make most of their money outside of YouTube (things like merch and sponsorships).

At the same time, o1 is not as capable as GPT-4o in a lot of areas. It doesn’t do as well on factual knowledge about the world. It also doesn’t have the ability to browse the web or process files and images. Still, the company believes it represents a brand-new class of capabilities. It was named o1 to indicate “resetting the counter back to 1.”

I think it’s more of a proof of concept then a fully functioning model at this point.

Weirdly it’s been working better for me.

Well then why did you describe them not doing that as malicious compliance?

And why should apple (or anyone for that matter) be forced to use googles proprietary code for an “open standard”?

Also,

There is, naturally, a wrinkle here. The RCS standard still doesn’t support end-to-end encryption. Apple, which has offered encrypted messaging for over a decade, is kind of a stickler about security. Apple says it won’t be supporting any proprietary extensions that seek to add encryption on top of RCS and hopes, instead, to work with the GSM Association to add encryption to the standard.

Apparently they won’t be collecting data.

Privacy protections are built in for users who access ChatGPT — their IP addresses are obscured, and OpenAI won’t store requests. ChatGPT’s data-use policies apply for users who choose to connect their account.

doesn’t seem to have an opt-out

It’s opt in

I messed around with it a little bit. I never used gpt-4 so I can’t say how much better it is, but it worked really well and only required some minor tweaking on my part.

The first plan with gpt4 is 12bucks a month.

Gpt-4o (the newest model) is free for a limited number of messages.
