DigitalSeahorse: I already finished my cereal
Creideiki_SE: @Strebenherz Most things are. But there's a famous homework problem: an evil physics teacher gives you three cookies emitting alpha, beta, and gamma, respectively. Eat one, put one in your pocket, hold one in your hand. Which is which in order to minimize your radiation exposure?
TXC2: Strebenherz in that we're all decaying matter? sure
L0rdX33n: Catching up on Desert Bus, just watched Graham hit himself in the junk with a nunchuck. That was fun

DigitalSeahorse: I've mispelled that I'm sure

loufghyslaufey: Also, Graham cries to his bike sometimes?
SnyperWoIf: My partner takes the lights down by like 1PM on Chrismas day
loufghyslaufey: Like a rental?
raulghoulia: better to keep them up until Twelfth Night and Not Midsummer
PhoenixMelior: We do winter lights here, which i appreciate.

TXC2: seasonal mood lighting
TehAmelie: there should be some sort of mid winter celebration in january or february to keep people's spirits up
JDMan94: I want to get those lights that finally solved most of TechConnections issues with modern lights
realbadatthis_: My neighbors have year round programmable RGB lights and they change the two colors depending on the nearest holiday
SylvrSystem: i left them up indoors all year. they light the hallway nicely, unlike the actual hallway lights which are far too bright and hurt my eyes
loufghyslaufey:
sporkraptor: nooooo
Voidhawk42: Get a Home Depot 20ft Skeleton, and decorate it appropriately for whichever holiday is next.
Korolan: Those things can be fixed with Home Assistant

TXC2: "smart tech" isn't
DigitalSeahorse: not AI tech
Korolan: But like, yeah it's a pain in the ass
sporkraptor: get your holiday lights hijacked for ransom
RealGamerCow: My microwave is *smart*, I honestly can't think of a use for it.
Bruceski: My mom has some all-year colored lights on her front porch because it's a nice look and just enough light to see where the steps are at night out in the boonies where she lives.

sporkraptor: "give us your credit card number or your lights will twinkle obnoxiously"
morteica: My toaster doesn't need to connect to the internet
Creideiki_SE: I've heard good things about the IKEA Trådfri smart home stuff.
richard_ermen: Someone explain to me why my bed needs internet now!
CheshireCake: Is Alex so quiet compared to Graham because of mic stuff or because he's just talking quietly?
7gorobei: ads in your gas station pump, ads in your car infotainment display
bytecaster: That's how I would do it, yes
Genie_M: That's how my systems are
bytecaster: Gotta contain the smarties
public_key_reveal_party: I work in tech, so I basically am like "Hello, I would like to get your dumbest appliance possible please"
Tehbeard: @morteica but how will it sell your toast preferences to ad companies?
Bruceski: botnet
KBKarma: That's best practise for IoT stuff, I believe.
sporkraptor: keep the internet gremlins corraled
loufghyslaufey: Why can't we just keep old fashioned lights like they always do?
TXC2: CheshireCake he's just a quiet talker
JDMan94: Make them all bright LED blue
JDMan94: And blind everyone
DigitalSeahorse: I don't use the "smart" part of my dehumidifier, it's just wifi controls from my phone if I wanted

loufghyslaufey: >_> coding...
PsychoI3oy: my machines just have card readers on each machine but I'm sure they would also fail if there was a network issue
public_key_reveal_party: My apartment has washers that use either coins or an app, and like, that option is nice, tbh
Greyah: I had a coffee machine at work stop working because it lost wifi connection.
morteica: @public_key_reveal_party My husband works cyber security so we have absolutely no smart devices. I feel like when the cyber security people refuse to use it, there's a reason.
sporkraptor: @TXC2 the man-in-the-middle companies that are skimming off every transatction tbh
TXC2: sporkraptor indeed
public_key_reveal_party: @morteica I'm not in cyber securt
Travilogue: My laundry uses a phone app and it is soooo slow to activate
Korolan: It's such fucking nightmare
TehAmelie: i hope i never have to give my card information to my phone
Justherefortherewards: That was a VERY good boop noise
Singenmeister: We found out our washer's manufacturer commands and the button combos to get its to run for free. Rent is high enough lol.
DigitalSeahorse: dangit, I hope your clothes weren't wet cause that would be the worst time for it to fail if you couldn't load it until next day if you had no computer
GlennSeto: Even the PayPal app randomly asks for 2FA codes when I'm trying to pay for breakfast.
morteica: @public_key_reveal_party Didn't say you were. But if people like that and other tech people are against it, maybe there's a reason.
public_key_reveal_party: @morteica hit send to early, but I'm not in information security, but I am interested in it, I just hate data collection
richard_ermen: Does everyone sound like they have a slight cold or is that just me?
Genie_M: Internet café age
Bruceski: All the stores by me just updated to new designs of card reader with the tap sensor in a different place so you sit there tapping for a while and then the clerk points to the opposite corner and it works right away.
GlennSeto: Paul does sound different.
loufghyslaufey: Before he had THREE... PS3s, actually.
DigitalSeahorse: ah yes, library internet in the late 90s
EvilBadman: @richard_ermen December voices.
Voidhawk42: "Out of numbers error"
sporkraptor: Dispenser Out Of Numbers
SnyperWoIf: They know that numbers are infinite right?
Greyah: Someone had to restock the numbers. Nice
7gorobei: 404 infinity not found
Travilogue: Had to download some RAM
GlennSeto: At least it didn't roll over and made India drop nukes.
morteica: @public_key_reveal_party Yah that's a big part of it. But then you can use it to catch the bad guy which I hear is a lot of fun.
Narcuru: someone call the Maths department we ran out of numbers!
Vinewood_OG: Please install new numbers
DigitalSeahorse:
HiimDant: they weren't rotating the temporary codes?
sporkraptor: refill the digit columns
richard_ermen: Not having enough numbers seems like something we're all moving towards. One day, even ip6 won't be enough...
public_key_reveal_party: @morteica true, I do want to pivot into information security, it is very cool, it's just I also don't want to be screaming internally every time I audit a company forever
DigitalSeahorse: can you use your card instead of the phone?
richard_ermen: I wonder if we're gonna run Nanites on ip4 to stop grey goo scenarios.
PhoenixMelior: Ugh thats so slow
avi_miller: So you need internet to use the bus?
LunchB0x_13: so glad clipper in the Bay Area still has physical cards
sporkraptor: uuugggghhhhh
TXC2: money is faster ?p
goatprince: or cash. use money cash.
GlennSeto: We made a machine that does well with numbers and math and now we have to teach "AI" how to do basic arithmetic.
MTigress: @LunchB0x_13 clipper is so good here
CeridwenCoeur: If only public transit was just free, no worrying abiut payment processing then
Narcuru: i loved the Aus and NZ bus systems where you just had to use your regular credit card. as a visitor it was really convenient
richard_ermen: Remember when there were very few computers everywhere and you went out and no one could find you unless they started an extensive national manhunt?
sporkraptor: it's *proven* to be cheaper to run buses *free* than it is to spend all the money necessary to police payments
Sarah_Serinde: Tokens yeah
DigitalSeahorse: here in Toronto there's a few station entrances you can ONLY PAY BY CARD
LunchB0x_13: @MTigress my work pays for mine. it’s wonderful
Creideiki_SE: Our buses haven't taken cash for over a decade. It was a work safety problem for the drivers, getting robbed.
TheKingWiggins: @LunchB0x_13 I visited SF…such a great system. Super jealous
DigitalSeahorse: so I gotta know when not to go there
GlennSeto: That must've endangered a few toddlers.
MehallD: the app I use for buses locally just needs you online to activate a pass on the day, and after that it shows a sort of passcode screen with a word of the day, so driver is just checking that.
richard_ermen: Considering how my taxes pay for infrastructure, public transport should be free.
Bruceski: Here in Portland I was lucky and got my card at a local fair when they were rolling them out. They had kiosks everywhere just saying "here, take one for free! We want them to be used!"
sporkraptor: I am not aware of "ribfest"
GlennSeto: mmmh, free ribs
HiimDant: You wouldn't Download a rack of Ribs
Singenmeister: @sporkraptor There's a video on graham's channel. It's pretty good.
GlennSeto: That's what the lemon tissues are for.
TehAmelie: i often wonder how much our no-cash public transit spends on inventing new payment systems and chasing ticket dodgers compared to replacing the fees with taxes. . .
LunchB0x_13: @TheKingWiggins they’re allowing tap cards and digital cards now but the physical card is the best option imo
bytecaster: Imagine a festival of meat
Nigouki: beerfest but with ribs?
sporkraptor: @TehAmelie yeah, it's proven to be more expensive than just making the buses free. >___<
ProcyonFlynn: So it's a FoodTruck Circus?
goatprince: filming that ribfest video was fun for me since i was looking around absolutely not tempted by anything, since i don't like ribs
SnyperWoIf: pork ribs? Or beef? Or both?
GlennSeto: @Nigouki Those would go well together.
SnyperWoIf: thanks alex!
AziraphalesShop: With a hungry Cam
TXC2: Sent Cameron to ribfest
ProcyonFlynn: Nope, still wince at 'Truck Meat"
GlennSeto: Mystery Machine meat?
Voidhawk42: Love the beerfest vids. Please continue to get drunk on company dime
Bright5park: Meat that sings. Meat that dreams. Meat that drives trucks.

bytecaster: Run out of fest?
PhoenixMelior: o7 Beerfest
morteica: You can write that off. Or you'd be able to in the US. Not sure about Canada
EvilBadman: It did not happen, Az and I wanted to come
avi_miller: Not enough Beer
GlennSeto: harsh
morteica: Write it off on your taxes*
MTigress: @LunchB0x_13 agreed, plus the discount programs require the physical card too
TXC2:
ran out of trendy bullshit IPAs to make
Voidhawk42: "X to doubt"
Nigouki: Millenials and Gen Z killing the alcohol industry again?
MehallD: My regular summer beerfest was fine, but I went to a "Beer is for Everyone" fest in November and it was great!

GlennSeto: Chat, what do they taste like compared to... I dunno, some globally available Kellogg's thing?
sporkraptor: first milk, then...
avi_miller: Yup same
Nigouki: for a moment I thought that was molasses because we have packs of that with a very similar color scheme

GlennSeto: Alex, are they going to have to evacuate a city block when they settle your estate some hopefully distant day?
ProcyonFlynn: Isn't all Stoneware slightly radioactive? It's just the orange that's spicy?
AziraphalesShop: It was certain years
TXC2: it was green-ish right?

IanAllenBird: oh echo
RandomTrivia: Oop, double audio
TXC2: spooky
CaptainSpam:
Of course Alex has multiple Geiger counters. Of course. 
UnknownFriday: My favorite story about this is my brother pulled out a giger counter and a piece of fiestaware and went "I want to show you something." and my response was "...Of course you have a giger counter."
PhoenixMelior: Oh too many mics
Vinewood_OG: "Mine's in the shop."
TXC2: ECHO!
creasehearst: echo echo echo
rabbitgta: Double mic
DarktanUK: How do the stores react to someone bringing a Geiger counter?

Doc_Layzah: Don't eat it if it breaks. Unlike most glass
public_key_reveal_party: Do not eat uranium glass, got it
CaptainSpam: Thanks, Paul!
Genie_M: Don't eat the glass
TehAmelie: about 25 years ago a millionaire told me if you wanted to make a fortune you should make affordabel hosuehold geiger counters
noSmokeFire: I stayed at a really cool bnb once that had a big case full of uranium glass
niccus: this would be a funny place for a sliiiiight noise filter
WannabeSmoky: Fun fact: some pretty rocks are also radioactive. Alex takes his geiger counter to crunchy granola stores that sell quartz for your chakras and runs it over their sacred rocks XD
PhoenixMelior: Do not eat glass got it
GlennSeto: Getting glassed with uranium during a bar fight.
public_key_reveal_party: I only eat non-uranium glass
creasehearst: the other problem is going to be heavy metal poisoning
Foxmar320: Ive broken many of those in REPO
NimrodXIV: TIL
TXC2:
yeah that can sit on your desk for decades and give the same chance of cancer of 1 pack of cigs
Vinewood_OG: You're not my real dad
BlueMechanic: don't tell me what to do
Bright5park: Aww, but I love Grandma's Uranium Glass Salad!
sporkraptor: okay! /salute
Mathwyn: Aww there goes my breakfast plans
creasehearst: and heavy metal poisoning is going to become a problem much faster than the radiation it gives off
GlennSeto: That's how empires slowly decline.
Bassios: I should get a geiger counter
loufghyslaufey: @bytecaster A child through a McDonalds promo consessions in their happy meal?

LordZarano: Ooh it clicks, nice (a lot of them beep instead)
TXC2: hello Greendrag13 welcome
WannabeSmoky: "So of course I went to Ukranian e-bay" is such a strong sentence
Doc_Layzah: Ionizing events
DarktanUK: Geiger counter go brrrrrrr
Genie_M: Every tick is a particle passing through the mentioned tube
Vinewood_OG: No that good, not that bad
loufghyslaufey: Were sorry kids. We were honestly that stupid & still have no idea how we made it this far either.
Nigouki: it's a photomultiplier tube except for very angry initial particles
DigitalSeahorse: everything is rad but this is more so
loufghyslaufey: *that stupid too
DigitalSeahorse: lead is spent rad
Doc_Layzah: That distance squared
Greendrag13: Double the distance, quarter the intensity
GlennSeto: And I guess iodine.
Doc_Layzah: Double distance = one quarter intensity
richard_ermen: Somehow I'm always on the edge of my seat thinking it'll go like in Stalker in a sec.
DigitalSeahorse: so if you swallow it and it will be bad
Voidhawk42: Only slightly more radioactive than the average banana
Vinewood_OG: Critically massive collection
PhoenixMelior: Oh. Gotta be sure to ventilate.
IanAllenBird: oh!
ThreeTwoOnePantsOff: the rad things that have warning like “drop this and run”
sporkraptor: don't roll around in it
DigitalSeahorse: or breathe it
nosole: @richard_ermen Same
GlennSeto: Is said gas flammable?
loufghyslaufey: Don'teven think about it...
DigitalSeahorse: cute little goblet
loufghyslaufey: When thinking about it.
richard_ermen: Somehow this makes the thought of people using radium brushes in the 1920s and having their tongues light up even worse.
Creideiki_SE: @GlennSeto Radon is a noble gas. It does not do any chemistry at all.

Mathwyn: @voidhawk42 The Gamma Banana strain is an outlier and should not be counted
PhoenixMelior: @richard_ermen ohno ohno

TXC2: Laserbeaks_Fury feature
DigitalSeahorse: interesting
neisan2112: Oh thats even smaller than I thought
loufghyslaufey: Kay. So its NOT radioactive... in the same room they're in...?
beissman:
get Kyle Hill for a PPR.. and plan him extra time for Alex
Genie_M: Leak
PhoenixMelior: Right because he was radioactive internally for a while
KBKarma: Ah, so you *did* borrow a Geiger counter! Neato.
PhoenixMelior: Oh shame, almost
ContingentCat: as one does
Laserbeaks_Fury: a sort of PeeK meter
Vinewood_OG: Hold up, i gotta go take a reading

Voidhawk42: Light is radiation. (Some) heat is radiation
TXC2:
if there's enough of it you can taste it, but then that's FAR too late
Voidhawk42: We swim in radiation

Genie_M: Flush it out
GlennSeto: sh***er's full!
SonofThoth: It's kinda like how the treatment for methanol poisoning is to give the person an IV of ethanol
DigitalSeahorse: prevention of thyroid contamination
dimirious: I think there is a certain time window iodine supplements help in that situation.
TXC2: "we don't wont none!"
DarktanUK: We use radioactive iodine to treat some thryoid disorders
HiimDant: "sorry, no more room on this train, you'll have to come back tomorrow"
wordnerdify: When my cat had thyroid issues, the treatment was radioactive iodine. So the cat was radioactive for awhile
DigitalSeahorse: no retroactivity
Statist42: i dont remember what it was called, but my mother had some health issue and the treatment was "swallow some radiation" and then she was under quaranty at the hospital for like a week... where she found out that apparently over the border in the netherlands they do it with no quarantine and just send you home...
Mathwyn: @glennseto "sh**ters critical ! Run!"
PsychoI3oy: SonofThoth, I got a sample of racing coolant back in the day and the MSDS in it said to drink 6 or 7 shots of Jack Daniels if ingested (the coolant was ethyline glycol)
GlennSeto: @wordnerdify A cat would get randomly radioactive.
RealGamerCow: scale is important people!
TehAmelie: take care of your thyroid, pet it and feed it water every day
ContingentCat: reading the caption is important
ProcyonFlynn: Scientific Literacy - it's a heck of a challenge
SonofThoth: @psychoi3oy The safety officer who wrote that SDS was having a fun time with it haha
wordnerdify: @GlennSeto I had to store the cat litter for six months before I could throw it away

GlennSeto: Was the water release still a legit issue though?
Doc_Layzah: Pearls from the radioactive ocean
loufghyslaufey: @RealGamerCow Kay. So... what happens when its not? Asking for US observers... just in case?
TXC2: GlennSeto oh yes
Bruceski: One lady did a scaremongering book after the disaster tying it to infant mortality on the US coast, and that was my first deep dive into actual statistical data discovering all the ways she fudged the numbers. Just for my own satisfaction.
DigitalSeahorse:
they could be uranium pearls
SnyperWoIf: Is the radioactive history book also radioactive?
Laserbeaks_Fury:
Just be sure your book isn't too long and they try to split it into two parts
GlennSeto: I adore throwback science/quasi sci-fi aesthetics.

redbeardjeff2: <message deleted>Hey, Canada your military sucks.
Mathwyn: Best fired from the back of a jeep while driving away at max speed
DigitalSeahorse: yikes
Spolin: not only made it, but officially deployed it
GlennSeto: Doesn't that basically doom the field personnel?
Bright5park: I think that one was featured on Citation Needed once.
loufghyslaufey: Wait. Have I heard of this one by now!?
RealGamerCow: at that range, do you really have to target?
L0rdX33n: Google Brilliant Pebbles
LordZarano: Shortly after Fukushima there was someone that flew to Japan and visited the Fukushima area and their company had them take a radiation monitor. There was WAY *WAY* more radiation on their international flight, from cosmic rays, than when they were near Fukushima

AziraphalesShop: You are my two favorite Fallout Let's plays.
GlennSeto: Is Canada a nuclea... ah
Genie_M: Hm?
L0rdX33n: Ever hear about the atomic landmines? they included a live chicken to keep the electronics warm
noSmokeFire: the missiles come with a bottle deposit
ProcyonFlynn: "Give them back, no not like that"
Creideiki_SE: Even better: the Genie is an *unguided rocket*, not a guided missile.
EvilBadman: Coin deposit
BloodnBullets: The fallout one is for a world where radiation is inevitable, but super mutants can be delt with.
SnyperWoIf: Please reassemble this nuke and return it when done, thx

DigitalSeahorse: stabby missile
DiscordianTokkan: Literally liquidate
LeeshaJoy: I am very curious to see whether the VOD of this gets demonitized.
L0rdX33n: Coast Guard still uses OrgCon for search and rescue, train them to peck at orange and they can help search for orange life preservers
maliciously_malkavian: missile with a shiv
sporkraptor: "liquidate" not an euphemism in this case
Voidhawk42: Very low colatoral because no explosion
RandomTrivia: For when you absolutely, positively have to turn one specific person into red mush
DigitalSeahorse: xD
Bright5park: That is within Millimeters of a missile that just releases an Anvil
PhoenixMelior: It should be called The Tonberry
Nigouki: "Hellfire missiles fired by a Reaper drone were used on 31 July 2022 to kill Ayman al-Zawahiri,[63][7] the leader of Al-Qaeda, who had previously been involved in planning the 9/11 and other attacks on US targets. It was reported that the missile hit him on a balcony, causing minimal collateral damage."
loufghyslaufey: Oh cringe. Please don't share this with the wrong crowd, chat.
JDMan94: Looney Tunes ass shit

GlennSeto: two steps removed from orbital tungsten rods
MaximePoirier: I mean, that's not thaaat crazy xD

raulghoulia: Dan Olson just put out a great video on the Call of Duty game
Doc_Layzah: "I cast meteor strike"

TehAmelie: turns out it takes power to decelerate from orbit
RealGamerCow: it's useful if you want to hit a country, not a person
TXC2:
it would take more power to get them up there in the first place then the damage they could do
Nigouki: Call of Duty is the wet dream of if every thought-of weapon was real
Voidhawk42: Turns out deorbitting without slowing down is imprecise
L0rdX33n: turns out telephone pole sized tungsten rods are really heavy and getting heavy things to space is EXPENSIVE!!!

loufghyslaufey: Wild E. Coyote woukd be like: "I'LL TAKE TEN!"
AziraphalesShop: Neal Stephenson figured out how to make rods very effective

Voidhawk42: One of my faves is the nuclear-bomb-pumped X-ray-laser
gualdhar: Tungsten Space Rods are both hard to aim and really obvious to find a satellite with that much mass flying around
loufghyslaufey: Am at five to none...
GlennSeto: Somewhere up there is a test satellite with like half the rods still in there.

GlennSeto: Secretly funded by the gay agenda.
Foxmar320: Yep that was a thing
L0rdX33n: Well what if the soviets invented it first?

neisan2112: ~113 F
GlennSeto: I think, I may have experienced 45 maybe once or twice as a kid.
hackingducks: that's my experience every time I go to vegas.
Genie_M: I'm fine until 32-34C if it's not too humid
TehAmelie: i expect Vegas will be enclosed in an air conditioned dome in this decade
DigitalSeahorse: microwave outside
Mathwyn: Even for us Aussies 45 is insane heat
Anubis169:
SnyperWoIf: water is nature's temperature battery. No really!
Noy2222: Vegas mid-June - September is literally Hell.
Bassios: Anything above about 22c is hell for me
lightfut: And not that far to Tucson beyond
TXC2:

RealGamerCow: I was going down a cliff-side road in Nova Scotia in the rain, with a LOGGING TRUCK hot on my ass.

psychopathicjaz: -end talk-
62MGcobra:
SkylerRingtail: The short answer: it's an affront to human dignity
IanAllenBird: you did go into it a bit in the last w+p
nosole: Yes, where does one start
Vinewood_OG: Sarah Connor intensifies
Sarah_Serinde: There are just. So many reasons. So many.
PhoenixMelior: Alex has been activatee
DigitalSeahorse: where to even start
rabbitgta: Gosh and it's only been 5 seconds since the last time I was bothered by bs Ai
Wiliart: 1. They are criminals.
Sarah_Serinde: My current company uses it heavily and it's so bad
TXC2: this current MASSIVE FINANCIAL BUBBLE
JadedCynic: it's sadly just a 'mcguffin' for con artists selling them to cheap and lazy CEOs - what it *IS* is irrelevant to them.
Anubis169: the Enshittification continues...
bytecaster: Apparently Amazon retracted the terrible AI anime dubs basically just now
TehAmelie: when you have invested 50 billion dollars in hammers you need a lot of problems that look like nails
Vinewood_OG: If it benefits the worst people in the world, it has to be bad. You don't even need more reasons.
nosole: Please tell me the RayBan Meta glasses are are selling terribly. I love a good set of RayBan's but fuck them
morteica: God... Screw that horrible cesspool
JadedCynic: it's also WORSE than just hiring a *human* to do whatever you're replacing staff to do.
Wolfstrike_NL: Remember nft's - better invest in the next worse thing
DoodlestheGreat: They have no idea how the creative process works.
JessieImproved: They have no idea what the purpose of art is
MrPipboy3000: "It makes art so simple and easy" ... Thats never been the problem with art!!!!
GlennSeto: They don't just have no idea, they actively resent it.
ContingentCat: Just another reason we need more arts in schools
JadedCynic: BOOM! that's it
TXC2: the point of art is expresion
TXC2: *expression
Xed_Regulus: Art is made by people. Content is made by machine.
TehAmelie: those people are now requesting a random prompt button to generate art generation for them
avi_miller: Making it is the fun part!
IanAllenBird: I like using my hands and mind to put my heart into the world even when that heart is just a doodle of a cat. the process of that is what makes it worth doing for me
SkylerRingtail: Future history books (if objective ones exist...) will talk about how AI was used to distort and undermine consensus reality in service of authoritarian regimes...that's the angle that particularly worries be, based on my research
silverstar216: there's a reason knitters don't really buy factory-produced sweaters, right
Mai_Andra: Gen AI "democratizes" the idea of making money off other people's art.
beowuuf: Of the three things to take from star trek - LMM computer/holodeck, infitite energy, post scarcity world - they picked the one that requires the other two first to not be horrific
morteica: Art should always be made by people so we can get the human experience in it. AI is soulless.
Vinewood_OG: "Fire made it good."
JadedCynic: @Xed_Regulus and products are sold by soulless corporate douchebags
RealGamerCow: "But it's ableist against people who can't draw" is the second most infuriating argument I've seen, only to "AI is the new printing press bringing literature to the masses"
richard_ermen: I don't think any artist in the history of ever went: "Man, I wish the making art part of making art was so time-consuming."
avi_miller: Why would you take the part of art that is fun out of art?!
Laserbeaks_Fury: They see themseves as Prometheus
RealGamerCow: and "It's a socialist technology, really!"
Greendrag13: There is meaning in creation. It's distressing when people cannot understand that.
DigitalSeahorse: no it's worse
bytecaster: "Democratizing art" as if you couldn't already buy a pencil and draw something
RandomTrivia: The AI companies have positioned themselves as Prometheus, which is a shame because they clearly have never tried holding a pencil
control_rig: *seethes with rage*
Vinewood_OG: 6 fingers and a piss filter, because children yearn for the lithium mines
JadedCynic: @RealGamerCow Bull-paddies; I can't draw worth a dam, but I create better visual art than most AI machines
DigitalSeahorse: so much worse
ContingentCat: oh it sets me off when people try to frame it as accessibility
TXC2:
RealGamerCow i'd stab someone if they said that to me IRL
JadedCynic: BOOM; checkmate, AI!
DigitalSeahorse: xD
MrPipboy3000: In the time that it took you to perfect your prompt and refine it to get 80% of what you want, you could have just learned to draw
JadedCynic: it emulates its source material
ContingentCat: It's so insulting to disabled artists saying they can't make art without stealing
TehAmelie: you could also look at a sunset and go "i made this" completely for free
richard_ermen: I think, the same problem happens with AI slop writers. They want to be "writers" without having to do any work for it. They want the acclaim, not the growth.
RealGamerCow: Predictably AI art is really being picked up by advertisers.
CaptainTeo: I didn't even think of that point, wow. X..x
beowuuf: but if you "steal" their prompts they will scream
ContingentCat: @richard_ermen oh yeah gen AI text, image, video all trash
bytecaster: I really hate the Ghibli filter, it's so aggravating, a subpar simulacrum without any of the soul
RandomTrivia: The Statistical Plagiarism Machine must feed (it mustn't, actually, they're hoping it will start pooping out money at some point)
raulghoulia: youre giving them too much credit to think theyve thought that far
JadedCynic: "ART is OVER! It's DONE!" - brainless money-monkey
Vinewood_OG: Lead lined aqueduct thinking
Bruceski: I can't draw worth a darn, I constantly get frustrated when my ideas and my hands don't work together, and I still managed to skets out a picture AND show it to other people online. Granted they probably thought "oh cute, a five year old made this".
morteica: @RealGamerCow That's such a bull argument and I also hate hearing it. Everyone can draw. It doesn't look the same, but that's the point. Art is unique
DigitalSeahorse: feed it a bunch of watermarked "Iwantthisonatshit"
richard_ermen: In a way, its cargo culting art.
avi_miller: I always feel bad because some artists had styles that now look very AI because AI was drawing on their style to start with
GlennSeto: Same with vibe "coders" ... fucking morons.
ContingentCat: the humanity is missing yeah
tidehollowcat: NaNoWriMo (national novel writing month) made the pro-ai abelism argument. Didn't work out well for them.
DoubleGrinch: Ultimately, it comes from a comtempt towards *people*. It's from the "running a company would be awesome if weren't for all the workers" crowd.
RandomTrivia: And then you wind up with a christmas advert featuring a truck that changes size and shape every other cut
JadedCynic:
I'm upset that I can't clip this WHOLE DISCUSSION 
NimrodXIV: businesses want it so that they don't have to pay people. (signed someone who refuses to "train" the AIs at work)
ContingentCat: @tidehollowcat oh noo
DigitalSeahorse: xD
morteica: @tidehollowcat Are you kidding me? I used to do that. Missed this year. If they're on the side of AI, I won't be doing it again.
ExtraLongsocks: The realest thing that "AI" will never be able to reproduce is ambiguity, and making art that leaves room for personal interpretation. When a prompter poops out an image, that image was purpose-built. There's no nuance.
bytecaster: I always said that many business people have never appreciated any art even before GenAI and this is just proof.
Voidhawk42: Co-incidently, I don't see value in those people to humanity
TehAmelie: did you hear Jack Twitter is bringing back Vine? with express rules against AI, cause he wants fresh material to give the AI
Sarah_Serinde: @morteica Yeah, yeah they sure did
Genie_M: I can generate 100 thousand images in a day. I would not even think about calling it art. It's images.
JadedCynic: 'it's the journey, not the destination'
Voidhawk42: MBAs are a blight on society
richard_ermen: Making a movie to have made a movie?
RealGamerCow: I have had someone say to me "If I self-publish 10,000 books on Amazon and only 1% of them sell, I still sell 100 books."
JessieImproved: When I buy art/media I am buying someone's intention
Mattmitchell45: Shoutout to Dan Olson's video about Audible book ghost writers
morteica: @Sarah_Serinde Well... Guess it's dead to me. Now to burn my T-shirt and poster from them...
GlennSeto: But even the room is still outsider "art".
nosole: @Mattmitchell45 Such a good video
JadedCynic: "The Room" is a cargo cult mimicry of 'a narrative movie'
richard_ermen: @RealGamerCow I've self-published six books and sold over 500. People appreciate honesty and authenticity. I don't understand why these hacks don't get that.
bytecaster: And yet there is undoubtedly so much of Tommy in that movie
RandomTrivia: Like someone trying to make Monty Python's Flying Circus who doesn't understand what makes it work
TalpTheScot: what if the aliens from drink more glurp made a movie
rabbitgta: You're tearing me apart alex
Sarah_Serinde: @morteica I mean I would say, if you want, you can still value what it used to be and what you got from it. You just don't want to support the group going forward
TehAmelie: cause no one had done it before!
morteica: The degree? It's the only degree I've ever heard someone describe as "easy" -.-
BlueMechanic: he also bought the equipment rather than rent it like most people do
tidehollowcat: Nanowrimo also shut down due to no one wanting to support them
rXpCH subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 39 months!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, rXpCH! (Today's storm count: 30)
ExtraLongsocks: @TehAmelie Im hesitant, considering there's been some early leaks suggesting it's had some generative code in its development. Nothing super hard, so salt grains and such. But also like... Vine Is dead. Please stop the software necromancy
Sarah_Serinde: Yeah I couldn't remember the details but I was pretty sure the AI thing went very poorly for NaNo
richard_ermen: To be honest, wanting to make out with the lead actress was the motivation for quite a lot of movies in history xD
Xed_Regulus: Read "The Disaster Artist." It is a fascinating read about the creation of the film.
JadedCynic:
I mean "The Director/Producer sexually abuses the talent" IS part of making a movie
TheGuidingLark: i'm particularly sad about it because an incredible artist I know has physical limitations and has gone about using AI as a, lets say accessibility aid, this person will go in after to clean it up, its not the intelligent that suffer, its the lowest common denominator
tidehollowcat: Nanowrimo's wikipedia entry is written in past tense now
TXC2:
richard_ermen basically Paul Anderson's whole body of work
TehAmelie: i was just gonna recommend the book too. the movie leaves out a lot of salient detail (as they do)
Anubis169: LOL
morteica: @Sarah_Serinde I'm joking. I'm proud of when I did it while it was a reputable thing. But I'm not doing it if they support AI. That's like a slap in the face to any writer/artist
RandomTrivia: "Wait, why can I hear Michelle Yeoh beating up my henchmen in the background...?"
bytecaster: They must scoff at Manga, they only use two colors! That cannot be good.
GlennSeto: Cinnamon famously goes with everything.
Laserbeaks_Fury: Even in Star Trek, having Replicator technology, people still like to go to someone cooking real food.
HiimDant: "this is peak food: you might not like it, but it's the best"
Sarah_Serinde: @morteica Yeah 100%
Singenmeister: Babish's every meat burrito recipe comes to mind.
DigitalSeahorse: delux all the time every time
BloodnBullets: Oh hey your talking about my cooking! I'm the best cook!
BlueMechanic: also the weird yellow/orange glow they all have
ContingentCat: lol yeah I've heard the comparison to the liquid at the bottom a dumpster, it's a mix of all the food in it isn't it great, no.
Anubis169:
my main issue is nobody ever curates the learning algorithm, they stuff EVERYTHING into it (stolen included) and expect a good result... there's a reason schools have a curriculum 
DoodlestheGreat: American media screws up everything. I say this as a lifelong resident of Los Angeles.
RandomTrivia:
Vinewood_OG: @BlueMechanic Love the Fallout 3 filter so I can automatically tell it's fake
DigitalSeahorse: water?
Snowcookies: As someone who will put a lot of things in pasta, I would not call it the best pasta because I put every veggie I have in my fridge
TehAmelie: The Bear taught me the most elite chefs favor actually fewer ingredients, guess it follows the metaphor
morteica: @Singenmeister His new stuff has gone off the rails. It's made me stop watching him. I want achievable stuff. Not...whatever that was.
GlennSeto: Gordon ... that's a lil cruel.
TXC2: a teaching moment
NimrodXIV: the bubble will burst
DigitalSeahorse: it takes 100s of drawings
Anubis169: the AI bubble will pop and your art will be more valuable by virtue of the fact it's made by you
TXC2: the bubble must burst
CaptainTeo: Put it this way: When else in history have you been able to say that you're training as an artist so that you can fight back against robots?
richard_ermen: @Anubis169 Because that requires understanding that there's more to it than just pure "data feeding". The same people creating these algorithms think that MORE == BETTER. Which is why several research friends of mine go bonkers when people go like that.
DigitalSeahorse: grrrrrrr
Vinewood_OG: Left my tech career due to fascism, want to create, but yeah... the vibes are dire.
JadedCynic: the boomerang effect is happening
Sarah_Serinde: Nice
jadielady:
20 years ago a band was coming so we photoshopped a bunch of Care Bears around some text. It's not hard 
DigitalSeahorse: pay your artists in something even if it's buying them a coffee
JadedCynic: and yes, young artists - keep at it: WE NEED YOU MORE THAN EVER
SkylerRingtail: Looking for "human" artists that won't use AI? Commission a furry artist. Boy is most of the fandom on a warpath against AI
AziraphalesShop: People die from exposure
morteica: Alex, I recently got back into my art after a 10 year hiatus partially because you always promote doing art.
lamina5432: Tech companies are going to have problems in a few years
richard_ermen: Worst part nowadays? You're looking for artists on Threads, Bluesky or anywhere? Have to contend with bots trying to scam you.
Lord_Hosk: politely pester, dont be a dick
RandomTrivia: "You could have paid someone like 20 bucks to do this and it would have been better"
DigitalSeahorse: be clear in your payment beforehand
Greendrag13: working for exposure CAN be an advertising budget
BlueMechanic: People die of exposure
bytecaster: The furries are a force to be reckoned with
Anubis169: given the Furries are also in charge of infrastructure
Earthenone watched 20 consecutive streams and sparked a watch streak!
this is a weird button
RandomTrivia: Oh 100% having the furries on side is worthwhile
control_rig: Do NOT mess with the furries
Vinewood_OG: I tried paying my landlord with exposure, now I have to notify all the neighbors I'm on a list.
DigitalSeahorse: furries are a great ally
ContingentCat: People pay for publicity, so you can think of it that way when you're in that position
DoodlestheGreat: @SkylerRingtail We HAET AI-generation.
GlennSeto: Yeah, bless those comrades!
lamina5432: we are all a little furry
RandomTrivia: BAHAHAHAHA
TXC2: Furries are more then half the tech support industry
Anubis169: ^
hackingducks: sure but don't.
Greendrag13:
friends!
EvilBadman: Having furries on your side is akin to porn in the format wars
Singenmeister: Furries against fascism
Strebenherz: LEGIT
Bruceski: It also really comes down to who's offering the exposure and various power dynamics and gets really fuzzy as those shift.
lightfut: What about a fwend
Jigokuro: Furries have always valued paying artists appropriately.
Greendrag13: @Singenmeister now thats MY kind of FAFing about
TXC2: EvilBadman we the VHS of the world
LeeshaJoy: Furries run the Internet. Everyone else is here with their permission.
Sarah_Serinde: Okay yeah, it can also hurt a lot to accuse someone of AI when they did not use AI
public_key_reveal_party: Furries are like, the backbone and cns of the internet
Genie_M: You can't - new models are scary
Sarah_Serinde: You may be shutting down a real artist and stopping them from wanting to make things
Greyah: I'm just already getting tired of having to question every single thing I see and wonder if it's AI.
JadedCynic: ROB LIEFELD
noSmokeFire: real artists accidentally flip hands

DigitalSeahorse: real artists can woops two left feet
Mai_Andra: "oops... I drew a thumb AND five fingers..."
control_rig: I will say, Furries are the backbone of indie art across the internet; they PAY, and for that, they have my deepest respect.
ContingentCat: And for text AI apparently a lot of autistic people are getting accused of using AI for school projects
Sarah_Serinde:
RandomTrivia:
GlennSeto: Liefeld training data is a deeply cursed phrase
Anubis169: the reason sora2 exists is to combat incestuous learning, AI learning from AI... they lose money on every generation, it exists entirely to get "verifiable real" info back into the system and slow the degredation
DigitalSeahorse: hahahahah
Vinewood_OG: Rob, still catching strays...
CaptainSpam: If someone accuses you of using AI art because the hands "look wrong", hand them a piece of paper and a pencil and tell them to draw a bunch of hands.
richard_ermen: CHaplin lost Charlie CHaplin lookalike contests.
JadedCynic:
( I wonder Rob Liefeld is the REASON AI art can't draw feet? 
)
avi_miller: As a trans person… I hate people who accuse everything because "they can tell" with no evidense
EvilBadman: Prompt: Pouches, Huge Chest (man or woman), No feet
richard_ermen: People are blind for comparisons.
Shadowsoflife:
DigitalSeahorse: I get so tired of looking for it
ContingentCat: @avi_miller yeah, especially as a trans person I'm like we've seen this before
TehAmelie: i choose to believe Rob takes his craft so seriously, he took that competition as a challenge to draw better than usually
RatherLargeToad: The only thing about as bad as AI art are the AI art witch-hunts
control_rig: YUPPPP
IanAllenBird: real
Sarah_Serinde: And now you have to question every video too
Sergue_Thorien: Liar's Dividend at highest levels
Greyah: It's so exhausting.
Anubis169: that's too real
bytecaster: And every post that you read, every website
Snowcookies: @CaptainSpam I hate drawing hands and faces, they are the worst >.>
DigitalSeahorse: it sucks so much
Jethrain: I'm so very tired
Vinewood_OG: Pain
raulghoulia: news is using it
HavenDragon: and videos
JDMan94:

DarktanUK: Now I have to question pictures of cats
DigitalSeahorse: it's nearly every video
SkylerRingtail: Questioning *all* media. Photography, video, text...Andrew's shirt at Desert Bus about the "end of consensus reality" hit hard.
EvilBadman: AI Video is fucking frightening
Anubis169: NO
IanAllenBird: pleaseee
TXC2:
avi_miller "I can always tell" hurts cis woman more then trans women, which is sadly the point
Sergue_Thorien: Everything has to be questioned now unfortunately
Vinewood_OG: Normalize slapping these people
Sarah_Serinde: It gets so much wrong. It doesn't know a thing.
bytecaster: This is not about convincing people, this is about catharsis!
Wiliart: As a teacher, ChatGPT know jack shite.
Ashmantle:
Anubis169: they're next probably response generators
LeeshaJoy: AI is part of the reason I haven't tried to get back into digital art. I'm all about drawing by hand.
Anubis169: probable*
jadielady: someone in one of my discords does that every time someone asks a question and I WANT TO BONK them
ContingentCat: "I asked chat gpt" = "I'm full of shit"
GlennSeto: That thing does not understand the concept of things.
Greyah: You might as well ask your cat. At least they have a real thought sometimes.
GhostValv: exactly
JadedCynic: Look at Edward Hopper; he stomped his hat when someone asked him about 'the eternal nature of-' his painting "Night Hawks" and he realized "I forgot the door AGAIN"
Anubis169: You can sound natural and still spout rubbish, just look at any politician
DigitalSeahorse: I was fooled by an opossum flop video
public_key_reveal_party: My fucking company's marketing team said they asked chatGPT for a plan to get into an industry and I am still internally screaming
bytecaster: Please use your own brain, we invested so much energy in making it work good
BlueMechanic: young mages today won't read their tomes and grimoires and just ask the oracle for everything
lamina5432: the asking the phone has annoyed me. look it up you have google
Mai_Andra: Business and School spent decades telling people "you have to write this way and use this phrasing" and now is dismissing people as "AI" for writing that way.
Jigokuro: Also screw AI for making me defend the value of labor like some puritanical ludite.
TXC2:
it's trained on reddit shitposts
Snowcookies: even the lies on the internet
GlennSeto: illegally trained
CaptainTeo: I've seen so many people who think that it can somehow generate new knowledge. >..<
IanAllenBird: please go to wikipedia instead
KBKarma: "I asked ChatGPT." "Well I asked the unblinking eye of hell, yea unto the evils of this earth, and it said you're a dumb fuck."
LeeshaJoy: "I asked ChatGPT" is the equivalent of "the spell checker said it was fine"
ContingentCat: asking reddit is actually not the worst choice anymore
neisan2112: It really pissed me off when I met back up with a friend from Highschool recently and he constantly asks Chatgpt about stuff. Even weather predictions instead of going to a fucking weatherchannel site....
Sarah_Serinde: I love my em-dashes
jadielady: now whenever I see "In summary" I get suspicous
couchboyj: ChatGPT doesn't hallucinate sometimes, it hallucinates ALL the time, and sometimes the hallucinations reflect reality.
hackingducks: the em-dash thing is legit driving me mad.
PhoenixMelior: AI doesn't know how many rs are in strawberry
richard_ermen: M-Dashes are a classic symbol of writing.
bytecaster: Don't get me started about the strain this puts on peer review in science.
Vinewood_OG: It is a search engine, with a conversational user interface. It's what Mass Effect called a virtual intelligence (VI) AT BEST.
SkylerRingtail: @LeeshaJoy Literally, because spell and grammar checkers are switching to AI now and getting things WRONG
avi_miller: Em Dashes are useful!!
avi_miller: I hate it
EvilBadman: AI learned em-dashes from us, welp
Snowcookies: it's the longest dash
Vinewood_OG: fonts fonts fonts
Anubis169: I still use semicolons correctly and i get fuckin' flagged all the time >_<
richard_ermen: It's why all the llms are using them. But they're being used in ways that hurt.

ContingentCat: em dashes are used by nerds to be extra (myself included)
Mai_Andra: It's kind of amazing how many of the people who always said "you can't believe everything on the internet" are the same people who accept anything ChatGPT says.
DarktanUK: Love em dashes
JadedCynic: the ONLY difference between chatGPT and the version of ELIZA I wrote in Basic in the 80s is the size of the database it looks off of, and the damage to the environment it causes
GlennSeto: Love a good semicolon use.
noSmokeFire: some of us -- and I won't say who -- have been using em-dashes before chatgpt was a thing
Genie_M: Graham is an LLM, confirmed
Bruceski: A double-hyphen -- sometimes left with the gap or auto-formatted toi a single line
DigitalSeahorse: if you must ask a GPT ask it to gtfo
Manae: em dash club unite
taliesinskye: For those wondering, N dashes are for a range of numbers.
public_key_reveal_party: I only use semicolons to end a statement and indicate the start of the next one
IanAllenBird: I use it so much I memorized the alt code
WannabeSmoky:
Love me some unexpected grammar lessons 
bytecaster: Also, I hate how it talks by default
JadedCynic:
Wait, are you SUPPOSED to use emdashes? I always just used hyphens
TehAmelie: the secret code is to swear. that's something AI won't ever be able to do

DigitalSeahorse: it repeats itself with fluff
Jethrain: Not to mention the eventual fallout when people using it to code critical systems stop understanding what they're coding
morteica: As an autistic who is OBSESSED with grammar (not in chats) and actually knows how to use punctuation correctly, it kills me that knowing grammer is being seen as a sign of AI.
PhoenixMelior: I LOVE four hour video essays, thank you
avi_miller: I want to find the thing I am looking for, not a summery of it
Anubis169 hugs morteica
L0rdX33n: i hate that
DarktanUK: God that would be a cursed paragraph
morteica: @Anubis169 💛
IanAllenBird: for the COMMENTS?
Anubis169: vibe coding can take a running jump...
TeaGarrison: that’s one of the worst parts about AI that irks me the most. i turn off AI summaries if I can
ContingentCat: wow that sounds like a bad idea
TXC2:
you can get summies of PDFs now
Sarah_Serinde: @JadedCynic If it's just in casual conversation, no, doesn't matter in the slightest. If it's formal/published then yes
RealGamerCow: I thought Graham was going to show how many people only watch the first 3 minutes of any YT video
richard_ermen: @morteica Sadly also a sign of the times. Tells you how little people understand grammar.
Vinewood_OG: I remain superior in my faith to the might Ellipses.
SkylerRingtail: I'm curious, Graham: do you have examples of those automatic replies?
Anubis169: LOL
noSmokeFire: any time a coworker sends me an AI summary of a meeting it's just strictly less useful than a transcript would've been
Anubis169: same
ContingentCat: I write something different out of spite
richard_ermen: I love the "auto answers" in teams because they're sooooo shit.
BorealMage: Fortunately, that can be turned off in gmail
RandomTrivia: Absolutely do that every time
Nigouki: SILENCE MACHINE
GlennSeto: I have ADHD and specifically seek out long video essays to keep my brain from losing all object permanence.
hatboozeparty:
At my job my boss was trying to convince people to use AI to help write stuff, eventually he got mad that everything was obviously written by AI. 
Jethrain: oh i have all that stuff in gmail switched aaaaaaaaall the way off
morteica: @richard_ermen Tha US school system fails kids yet again...
Anubis169: wat
avi_miller: I hate opening a stream to see "this is what the stream is about" summarized by an AI. If I open a stream it is because I want to watch said stream!!
L0rdX33n: Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!
JadedCynic: ???
control_rig: Sigggghhhh
PhoenixMelior: Lol
RandomTrivia: Each word statistically likely to follow the previous...
noSmokeFire: I love the "sol ring" card
TXC2: good grief
rabbitgta: There was a good one with summaries where they brought up the point of how the language changes if they were just reviewing a product or promoting a product.
DigitalSeahorse: sol ring
Snowcookies: uh huh
Vinewood_OG: I had to shut off all text assist on my phone as it's seemingly now backed by AI and has been getting tragically worse for the last few years.
JadedCynic: *lifts up rock and looks under it*
IanAllenBird: those are real "I'm in my online high school and I'm required to participate in discussion board" responses
Jigokuro: One of the largest uses of text AI now is Indeed, the job site. People bloating their resume with unique points to match every company, then those companies summarize away all the bloat without ever looking at it.
public_key_reveal_party: I did see one YouTube person who had the automatic reply "I don't know what that means but thanks" and I still laugh about how much work went into generating that nothing
GlennSeto: Loneliness epidemic intensifying
DigitalSeahorse: common firefox
bytecaster: I really hate the "embellish this email" on the one side to "summarize this email" on the other side pipeline
spinebustertee: My favorite is people using AI, getting wrong information about say, library hours, and then calling the library to complain about how the hours are wrong.
DigitalSeahorse: I should have resarted
DarktanUK: My ESL colleagues sometimes use it to change the tone of emails - usually "make this less rude"
Anubis169: "As per my previous email" getting a lot more use in future
richard_ermen: It's this bizarre experience where people seem to want to speed everything up. Like: Life is long, people. Use the time given, instead of rushing through
Vinewood_OG: What are we even doing here?
Greyah: Good ol' dead internet theory
bytecaster: This all SUCKS so hard
Sergue_Thorien: The Ouroboros
Sarah_Serinde: Meeee too
TeaGarrison: Agreed, Alex
Derekwillis: I don't want to talk to people. People don't want to talk to me. Clearly we should have machines suffer in both our places /s
RandomTrivia: If I write an email that's 2000 words long, every single one of them is important and I expect you to read EVERY SINGLE ONE
DigitalSeahorse: same
Anubis169: it's the insincerity of a pre-recorded "your call is important to us"
NullColaShip: YouTube also frequently suggests replying to comments by calling the person a name that isn't theirs. It's awful.
avi_miller: Yeah same
bytecaster: Computer Vision is very useful!
ContingentCat: At the same time great litmus test to know if I vibe with someone
KBKarma: Use an LLM to write your e-mail and an LLM to summarise it and send a response.
Genie_M: Noone knows what it means
CaptainTeo: I recently put up a job position that specified that it requires strong written communication skills. I got several applications for it that explicitly were written using AI prompts.
L0rdX33n: I love you legitimate humans so much
bytecaster: Technically the card scanner would have been classified as AI in the past
Mattmitchell45: I used to get obnoxious in the 2010s when everyone used Reddit for their content creation. I love the curation hunt.
ContingentCat: yeah it's the Generative that's the problem
JDMan94: It's sad because there are great uses! Square using machine learning to animate lip flaps, a boring laborious process that doesn't have much artistry to ir
RatherLargeToad: my pet peeve is people that call algorithms AI
couchboyj: Yeah, I teach Computer Science and Data Analytics, and I HATE how AI is often a shorthand for generative AI now. Such a pain.
KBKarma: Yeah...
GlennSeto: Some of which may have helped save your life (xray analysis, etc.)
JadedCynic:
@RatherLargeToad exactly 
SkylerRingtail: I keep hoping that this tech will, paradoxically, cause a resurgence of valuing authenticity and humanity and real human relationships. Same with the eventual collapse of fascism. Maybe when the bubble pops...
Omnipotrevor: Also, RoboRosewater
Anubis169: I use filters for partially restoring damaged VHS tapes in that sense, it's a good application
public_key_reveal_party: It comes down to when, where, and how to use it. It's a tool, the annoying thing is people launching hammers at your windows because hammers fix things
richard_ermen: I miss when AI meant KIT from Knight Rider.
richard_ermen: And not "Computer" from Star Trek.
TXC2:
"AI" is basically a financial buzzword now
RandomTrivia: All those phone calls that are crystal clear even though both people are in nightclubs? That's also machine learning
DigitalSeahorse: auto suggest on windows 10 on screen keyboard sucks
DoodlestheGreat: Using it to spot cancer cells: good. Using it to make succotash out of Shakespeare: GOD NO.
Genie_M: Photoshop had Content Aware Fill for more than 10 years
Anubis169:
richard_ermen: kitt was a badass 
noSmokeFire: @ContingentCat it's sort of more complicated than that. genAI is the face of the latest bubble, and the bulk of the scams, but it's worth remembering that ML is also abusable. e.g. for state surveillance
Anubis169: oh who was it...
RealGamerCow: The Arc Raiders situation was so bizzare and messy.
bytecaster: Yeah, I really hate that we got into necromancy as a culture
richard_ermen: @Anubis169 With a potty mouth ontop =)
Anubis169: Robin Williams' daughter
nosole: Yeah Romulus broke my heart with that
CaptainTeo: Yeah, it really scares me that we're not allowing actors to rest in peace anymore. X..x
avi_miller: Zelda Williams has been so angry about that
ContingentCat: Or using their voices for things they wouldn't be cool with, like NSFW stuff
Anubis169: she keeps getting bombarded with peeps sending her voice clips
JadedCynic: we could have had wonderful things, but the 'tech'Bros had to take it and use it as a snake-oil cure-all to sell to cheap CEOs that wanna fire all their staff.
RealGamerCow: most sensible people say "It's a mess"
RandomTrivia: Write a Checkpoint story, Alex
Vinewood_OG: I would play it, however....
TXC2: the arc raiders thing might be the only use case I can think of that I might be ok with, but i's iffy
TXC2: *it's
Anubis169: agreed, TTS is amazing for accessibility
spinebustertee: The obsession with recreating dead actors instead of just like. Allowing recasting to just be normal, is so awful
GlennSeto: oh thank god, I was worried Zelda Williams had licensed her dad's voice.
Genie_M: Accessibility tools are incredible

IanAllenBird: oof.
RandomTrivia: Fucking oof
ContingentCat: Oh god
EvilBadman: @TehAmelie there i ruined it going to AI shit sucks so hard
SkylerRingtail: What I get hung up on re: Arc Raiders is we ALREADY HAD text-to-speech tech without AI. Why did we need to use the plagiarism engine and possibly pressure VAs to give consent for it?
TXC2: oh for Gods sakes
Sarah_Serinde: yep
GlennSeto: this is sick
PhoenixMelior: People suck
RandomTrivia: The internet was a mistake
TXC2: which assholes did that?
Vinewood_OG: Kelly Carlin has been raising hell too
PhoenixMelior: Where is the knife
JessieImproved: Robert Redford's daughter just had to do that too
noSmokeFire: you'd think necromancy would be against TOS
KBKarma: Oh, that's why people were talking about Zelda Williams. Holy fucking piss.
RealGamerCow: @PhoenixMelior attached to a hellfire missle
morteica: The re-creating dead actors thing is why I put it in my will that I never want to be recreated using any kind of AI, holograms, autonomous figures, etc. Not that I really have a fear of it happening, but just in case.
