On Monday’s ⁠Good Morning Hospitality, A Skift Podcast⁠, ⁠Wil Slickers⁠, ⁠Michael Goldin⁠, ⁠Brandreth Canaley⁠, and ⁠Jamie Lane⁠ break down where AI is actually reshaping travel and why booking may not be the biggest battleground. From new ⁠Google⁠ translation tools removing friction on the ground to early signals around AI-driven pricing frameworks, the conversation centers on how AI is embedding itself into the travel experience rather than replacing transactions.

Почему идея решать капчу с помощью ИИ переоценена и в чем главная проблема полностью ИИ сервисов распознавания капчи?

В последнее время все чаще звучат идеи — что капча переоценена, и что развитие ИИ технологий медленно но верно убивает индустрию сервисов распознавания капчи. «Нейросеть научилась решать капчу лучше человека», «сервисы распознавания капчи все», «ИИ решает капчу быстрее человека» и так далее в том же духе. А давайте разберемся в этом чуть глубже — есть ощущение, что не все так однозначно, как кажется на первый взгляд. Читать далее Read more

GM Secretly Sold California Drivers' Data, Agrees To Pay $12.75M In Privacy Settlement

Без рук: автоматизируем нагрузочное тестирование изменений в CI

Нагрузочное тестирование — одна из самых избегаемых тем, когда речь заходит о контроле качества ПО. Корпорации, конечно, не обходят его стороной, но если говорить о продуктах меньшего масштаба, то нагрузочное тестирование часто пропускается. Команда (и, в целом, справедливо) полагает, что продукт справится с нагрузкой — на малых объёмах это обычно прокатывает. А потом внезапно наступает день, когда пользователей стало больше, а система не готова.Почему команды не тащат нагрузку в релизный... Read more

Я сделал приложение за вечер без навыков программирования. Фиг там. Как я почти год делал игру с опытом и ИИ

Миф о том, что с ИИ можно собрать полноценный проект за вечер без опыта, звучит красиво только в теории.
