Are you able to drive? Do you understand the difference between tactile controls and touch screens?

When the slop is actually just poison.

Hi I’m a mathematician.

What the actual fuck are you talking about?

Wounds like Dresden Codak is a better story.

I’m a transhumanist, and I’ve never heard of Picard in the context of something you watch, and what’s being spoken of in the article is something that’s been part of our wider Philosophy for longer than I have.

I’d to say that the quality of the hype is completely out of whack. People are expecting the current generation of generative neural networks to do things that they really can’t.

The ammount of total excitement is probably actually too low if you group GNNs with AGI, though.

Wtf is an “arm” in this context?

Edit: downvoting someone for asking a question is super cool, apparently.

I think you’re confused about who got hurt by the scheme. Billion dollar streaming platforms fucking over artists don’t need to be defended.

I’m not partitioning my system, I’m getting a clean slate.

Likeness shouldn’t be copyrightable, and copy shouldn’t extend past a couple decades.

From my end, it’s more to do with the fact that my parents’ advice has been consistently bad and so have their life decisions.

It’d explain a lot, actually. 🤔

I was remembering an ad that I saw yesterday(?), so either I mis-remembered, mis-understood, or mistook the ad mentioned in the article for the one I saw.

Regardless, ty for letting me know.

Okay. I’m a transhumanist. I like AI, automation, and the abolishment of involuntary labor as well as obligatory adversity. Even I thought this ad was super fucking creepy. How the fuck do you justify sending your daughter an auto-generated letter? Now, not only do you not care enough to do it yourself, you’re lying to her about it.

If I made my thoughts known about this development, I’d be permanently banned from lemmy.world.

Honestly, that’s pretty much what I expected. It’s just an incestuous mash up of pre-existing data. The only way I could see it working is by expanding specific key terms to help an AI identify what something is or isn’t. For example, I have a local instance generate Van Gogh paintings that he never made because I love his style. Unfortunately, there’s a bunch of quirks that go along with that. For instance: Lots of pictures of bearded men, flowers, and photos of paintings. Selecting specific images to train the model on “Van Gogh” might make sense because of the quality of the initial training data. Doing it recursively and automatically? That’s bad mojo.

Yes, exactly.

Pedantic Mathematician here.

If it failed, then it was a heuristic, rather than an algorithm.

Clearly, that’s the most important thing about this post.

You’re welcome.

When it comes to computers I’m an average nerd.

The main problems you may run into with snaps is the same problems you will run into with flatpak, appimage or docker.

This means nothing to me other than “there are some things that are more complicated with Ubuntu compared to Mint”.
