More random anti-ai fear mongering. I stopped looking at r/technology posts in reddit because that sub is getting flooded with anti-ai propoganda posts with rediculous headlines like this to the point that those posts and political posts about technology ceos is all there is in that community now. (This one is getting bad too, but there are at least 25% of the posts being actual technology news. r/technology on reddit is reaching single digit percentages for actual technology posts. )

This is how people consume media now. They enjoy it and want more but will only say negative things about it and thrash around in the throws of mock disgust so strong that they start to actually believe their own BS. Well, at least that is how Marvel and Star Wars fans consume media anyway.

I think they are worried because this comic proved that AI is actually pretty good at making comics. The last frame being the best frame.

Thank you, I’ll give it a look.

Unfortunately change is difficult. If it was just me and my controls team we would probably do something like that, but my boss is a little older and I had hard enough time getting him to work on the cloud as it is, and he works in 2 cities, so he isn’t always in reach to help him. If it doesn’t behave exactly like windows folders, it might be a lost case.

The other people in the office I could train easier. It’s a small office with less than a dozen people on the system at any one time. I am “head of IT” but that isn’t my main job. Having something that installs and sets up quickly is a boon. Not that the sharepoint folders update all that quickly, it takes almost a full day for all the files to show up properly, especially if it is a new user. And if onedrive chokes on any one file it completely stops updating file changes until you fix that. Not a problem for anybody with some savvy, but half the people don’t even notice until their files have diverged and somebody calls them and asks why they don’t see some change or another.

All that being said, if I can save a few hundred dollars a month I could probably eventually talk them into moving over to something cheaper like I did with the Wondershare PDF editor. That was an easy move because it works exactly like Adobe but doesn’t crash on large files nearly as often. It is sort of a shame that Adobe is worse at handling their own file format than nearly any other PDF editor.

It seems like they are doing this to push back on mono-culture. Probably just to save money really. Using 365 saved our small office a lot of time, but it is pretty expensive since it is a constant subscription. I already switched away from Adobe at to Wondershare for PDF editing since we can get a single purchase from Wondershare and have to pay a subscription to Adobe. I would be tempted to do the same thing with 365 but we do a lot of traveling and the integrated sharepoint files is pretty useful.

Sounds like a great experience. I do plan on finding a place to feed full size Capys or just go back to the place we went to before once they grow up.

Yeah, it is probably smart.

I went to a feeding in a room a lot like this in StAugustine. I don’t think that clip is necessary, they were babies like this and were very careful to take even tiny pieces of cabbage without getting their teeth on you.

Humans are pretty good at domesticating, as a species it is one of our core natural traits. We need to put that to good use and breed a long-lived domestic Possum.

Thank you. The article should have at least put some of that in there, just saying that 14 doctors testified that there was no foul play is pretty misleading…

Reporting is definitely a lost art. No information in the article about why she is even suspected. Based on this article she seems more likely to be a scapegoat for a statistical anomaly and bereaved parents lashing out.

It means what it means, “freely” pulls its own weight. I didn’t say “readily” accessible. Torrents could be viewed as “readily” accessible but it couldn’t be viewed as “freely” accessible because at the very least you bear the guilt of theft. Library books are “freely” accessible, and if somehow the training involved checking out books and returning them digitally, it should be fine. If it is free to read into neurons it is free to read into neural systems. If payment for reading is expected then it isn’t free.

If you try to sell “the new adventures of Doctor Strange, Jonathan Strange and Magic Man.” existing copyright laws are sufficient and will stop it. Really, training should be regulated by the same laws as reading. If they can get the material through legitimate means it should be fine, but pulling data that is not freely accessible should be theft, as it is already.

There are some boys down in the antarctic who have been hanging for a few millennia.

Beautiful. I like those waves.

Is that a hairless cat with hair?

Gameplay and software patents need to be nullified. We need to find a way to trick Trump into thinking those patents are insulting him somehow.

Well, I do wish they would promote the actual use and limitations of AI and stop making up crap and overselling the use cases. I use ChatGPT at work all the time as a start for research, but if I took any of it as being reliable info to run with I would be in grave trouble. It is a great tool that has saved me much time because I know how far to trust it and how to use it. The progress is very impressive as I’ve been using AI art services for years, and the difference between the random blobs from back then and the great stuff it can generate now is pretty stark. Same thing with the LLMs. I’ve been using ChatGPT since it showed up and it has improved greatly since then. Before all this I talked to people who were using AI training on various picture recognition projects where getting data from other sensors was not practical. … Overall AI is pretty exciting, but the non-stop hype and hate headlines is doing nobody any favors.
