Not true. Veracrypt’s hidden file system is random data on a preexisting partition that uses no software. You can only detect it if you install Veracrypt and guess the password.

How is this better than a Veracrypt hidden partition on a standard thumb drive?

He forgot the: Because investors are now the only ones with money to spend.

This is the way of the world right now.

“Oh no, things are going bad for us, raise prices so we will be OK when this dies!”

Screw the future. Sad times.

This wouldn’t be an obstacle for grid, only for mobile/moving applications.

This is one of the few actually cool and useful implementariins to me. It reminds me of my work writing systems to detect antimicrobial issues in hospitals.

A shame it’s getting so much hate, but they did choose to brand with “AI” so they get what they ask for.

This is basically a beefed up IVR with better customer satisfaction reports, so… yes.

But as I said in the other comment, giving updates to callers is something a standard answering system can’t do.

My understanding from other articles is caller satisfaction is greater with the TTS system, and it uses voice IVR to triage of they have additional information. AI is not bullshit in and of itself. This product seems barely diffeent from what they provided with APEX.

Recordings also can’t auto respond with updates to the caller like this can, which is a pretty nice feature, even if it’s just TTS.

Everyone should read before reacting:

This is intended to handle the increase of calls that are related to one incident, so callers get automatically routed to an AI agent who asks if they are calling regarding the incident. If the answer is yes, then callers can receive information or updates, and if it’s no, then the callers are transferred to a human.

This makes sense. A big thing happens that you are aware of. Geolocated calls from that area flood in. An operator, who could be getting useful info, has to handle a flood of “Guess what I just saw!”

Note that I think they should spend the money on more operators instead, but at least this seems like it has good guardrails.

Oh I didnt realize there was a fallback option, that’s great.

Is there a future where Hister takes on the functions of SearXNG? I.E. new content is discovered through APIs but local or previous content is prioritized?

Safety testing on humans (P1) is complete. No efficacy measures in the study, but that’s not out of the norm for P1.
