GOOGLE JUST SILENTLY DOWNLOADED A 4GB AI MODEL TO YOUR COMPUTER WITHOUT ASKING.
No permission dialog.
No notification.
No way to stop it.
If you use Chrome there is a 4 gigabyte file sitting on your hard drive right now that you never agreed to download.
It is called Gemini Nano.
A security researcher just proved how it works.
He set up a completely fresh Chrome profile. Did not click anything. Did not scroll. Did not type a single keystroke.
Just opened the browser and watched.
14 minutes and 28 seconds later Chrome had silently scanned his GPU, RAM, and storage. Then wrote a 4GB file to his hard drive.
No prompt. No consent. Nothing.
Chrome's own logs show the download begins BEFORE the settings page where you could opt out is even loaded.
The file starts installing before the refusal button exists.
As of Chrome 148 any website you visit can trigger this download with one line of JavaScript.
You click a link to read a blog post. That click counts as user activation. Chrome pulls 4GB in the background silently.
The model does not even work well.
Cloud requests take 1.3 seconds. The local model at worst case takes over 9 minutes for a single response.
Google is using your storage, electricity, and bandwidth to run an AI that is 40 times slower than their own servers.
And the AI Mode button in Chrome does not even use the local model. It sends everything to Google's cloud anyway.
You pay every penalty. The visible feature ignores the local file entirely.
CHECK IF IT IS ON YOUR MACHINE RIGHT NOW:
Windows: C:\Users\[YourName]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\OptGuideOnDeviceModel\
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/OptGuideOnDeviceModel/
If there is a file called weights.bin Google downloaded their AI to your computer without asking.
HOW TO REMOVE IT:
Type chrome://flags in your address bar.
Search "optimization-guide-on-device-model" and disable it.
Search "prompt-api-for-gemini-nano" and disable that too.
Restart Chrome. Then manually delete the folder.
If you disable the flags AFTER deleting the folder Chrome redownloads the 4GB file on next launch.
Firefox requires explicit opt-in for AI.
Apple Intelligence requires explicit consent.
Chrome just takes your hard drive.
Screenshot this and send it to everyone you know who uses Chrome.
Follow @cyrilXBT for every privacy and AI development the mainstream is not covering correctly.

I hear only criminals use it for drugs
See, Nostr isn’t dying after all.
There’s just a whole lot of cooks in the kitchen and eventually there’s gonna be an argument over who’s got the best recipe for something or other.
Then everybody joins in and it turns into a cafeteria fight.

有几个老外站在前台看麦当劳的前台广告牌的套餐和用手机扫二维码，就无法出现什么情况。然后就站在那里看了看。然后我问他：
Me: excuse me,do you need any help ?
老外：没反应、然后继续用手机扫那码。
me：what would you like to order?
老外：i want to get this combo.
Me:the combo only support WeChat and Alipay to scan the code to place an order ,
My mean is that you need to use WeChat or Alipay to pay by order.
老外：I don’t know what you mean.
Me: did you get it?do you understand ?you know what I mean?
老外：i need to pay by card.
Me :pay by card,please,walk up to the counter.

Me:here your change and receipt ,

Seems that there is a lot of synthetic engagement there, unfortunately.
Astroturfing is not in the interest of users

Gfy.
Gradually then suddenly.
Bullish!

A genuinely awful experience.

I was at the spring fair at my kid’s school today, standing around trying not to talk to any of the parents I didn’t recognize, and nonetheless found myself in the awkward situation of having to converse with someone whose first question was what kind of work I do. Why is that always the first question they ask?
I started to answer as vaguely as possible, but I realized there was no way to explain it without dropping the dreaded b-word. Once I said it out loud, I could see his entire expression change, and he sort of nervously chuckled.
There was another parent next to him who, with a puzzled look, asked me, “Does anyone still use that?” I replied that a lot of people all over the world do, in fact. That the demand keeps growing every cycle, and there are less than a million left that will ever be mined.
This probably broke their brains, because they both basically stopped talking to me after that and completely changed the subject.
So I’d call it a win.
Loooool wtf with the cheese spread. I a bag 🤣🤣🤣

legalzoom is on ☠️ watch. i used to pay for business compliance package that helped me know when various state and federal requirements were due.
with a few scrapes of federal and state websites your bot becomes an always on compliance department
