GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KREX) — Grand Valley Transit has launched a mobile ticketing app that is now available for download.

The app is designed to make it easier to pay for rides.

Transit coordinator for GVT, Danielle Sterle tells WesternSlopeNow how the app works.

“Once you download the app, you would go on to purchase fares. You would select your rider type…, you purchase it and then it’s not active until you decide to activate it.”

The app is expected to reduce delays caused by people fumbling with change and dollar bills.

Why RAG won't solve generative AI's hallucination problem
Hallucinations -- the lies generative AI models tell, basically -- are a big problem for businesses looking to integrate the technology into their operations. In a recent piece in The Wall Street Journal, a source recounts an instance where Microsoft's generative AI invented meeting attendees and implied that conference calls were about subjects that weren't actually discussed on the call. As I wrote a while ago, hallucinations may be an unsolvable problem with today's transformer-based model architectures.

How to play Pokémon and other Game Boy games on your iPhone
Apple finally updated its App Store guidelines to allow global developers to host retro game emulators on iOS. Now, you don't need to jailbreak your iPhone or download any sketchy software -- you can get a sophisticated emulator right in the palm of your hand for free on the App Store. No one is more vindicated by this shift in Apple's policy than Riley Testut, the developer who made GBA4iOS about a decade ago when he was in high school (when he released GBA4iOS, I showed half of my AP Statistics class how to play Pokémon on their phones during class -- sorry, Mr. Cinelli).

Microsoft bans US police departments from using enterprise AI tool for facial recognition
Microsoft has reaffirmed its ban on U.S. police departments from using generative AI for facial recognition through Azure OpenAI Service, the company's fully managed, enterprise-focused wrapper around OpenAI tech. Language added Wednesday to the terms of service for Azure OpenAI Service more clearly prohibits integrations with Azure OpenAI Service from being used "by or for" police departments for facial recognition in the U.S., including integrations with OpenAI's current -- and possibly future -- image-analyzing models. A separate new bullet point covers "any law enforcement globally," and explicitly bars the use of "real-time facial recognition technology" on mobile cameras, like body cameras and dashcams, to attempt to identify a person in "uncontrolled, in-the-wild" environments.
