15 years. The AI itself will be nostalgic for it.
How few songs run on loop on Spotify? Not to mention radio.
Professionals in the respective fields CAN do those things. We expect them to notice their own mistakes too. But the bar gets lowered and lowered as AI companies struggle to make ends meet.
The real answer is converting from any format to any other reliably. Text to speech, speech to text, music to video, image to 3D, piloting a drone by converting video feed to rotor speeds, literally any file conversion,…
We've had AGI since RNG! Cut the poor, unacknowledged RNG AGI some slack, will ya? It can literally solve everything when you're patient enough.
Not trying to hate because a FOSS audio editor is great, but all of these UI improvements are carbon copies from conventional DAWs or video editors, invented 30 or so years ago. Like giving audio clips a header which…
Lion standing up makes no sense. This is supposed to be a bear. The marks on its arm denote how many people it killed. It's not religious, it's not sexual, it's educational.
A friend had the Fair Phone 4. It broke after a year. Hostile customer support, not worth her time. Idk. Stories of "good guy" indie companies who drop you as soon as you fell for their marketing keep piling up. It may…
> Some would argue that if art makes you feel anything this strongly, it's 100% doing its job. It's pretty easy to invoke disgust and pain. That doesn't make public toilets and getting shot pieces of art 100% doing…
What's the point of that? I mean, as you invent the story, you already know what happens next, even with your tree system, you're choosing what happens before the AI writes it. So what exactly do you get out of the AI…
Agreed except with > To believe there is no possible way to print out a 6 foot tall by 10 foot long AI generated image that would look awesome hanging in a gallery is stupid. Maybe if you have a really impressive…
Humans are capable of producing slop too. Maybe the cutout does look like AI. Given Monet's blurry style and repetitive content (he made 250 water lily paintings), this is not surprising. When you strip the cutout of…
Blue pill: The supplier of the thing you want is friendly and has your best interest in mind. (Suppliers can be corporations, government, the opposite sex,...) Red pill: The supplier is corrupt and should be treated as…
It's weird for reddit clones to pretend they're anything but a small subreddit in scale. This site has a "discover" feature, "topics" (its own subreddits), "tuning" (huh?), user following, probably dms too, and it…
Chomsky is the NYT opinion section of academics. Where it matters, he's smoothly aligned with the rich and powerful. Where it doesn't matter, he's allowed to be a polemicist.
Depends on what you mean by "we". Humanity? Yeah, impossible to die out by fertility crisis merely due to lifestyle. The fewer babies are born, the more unoccupied space there is, making it more and more attractive to…
It's also a useless quote. Fertility requires a whole supply chain pyramid: food, housing, infrastructure, medical industry, alcohol... the same goes for the needs of deep learning: energy, rare earths, nuclear…
Not just as a company...
I thought private banks create money the moment they take out a credit from the central bank. The central bank's job is to set the interest rate for those loans, et viola.
Wait till you find out we live in a Von Neumann Universe
A president fundamentally has to try and please two competing groups, the rich lobbyists and the general population. Whatever he does for one, the other will dislike. Nowadays, the rich disliking you as a politician has…
Where is the "as a company they can do what they want and if you don't like it, don't buy it" crowd when you need them? Stuck defending Google, Micrososft and Apple, I guess.
Kafkaesque
Lack of empathy better describes Google's psychopathic pursuit of ever more control over its users, while the products get ever more enshittified of course.
Lots of nay-sayers to this, but yes, strikes do work and it's one of the very few real tools for change that people have.
