ChatGPT is amazing for describing what you want, getting a reasonable output, and then rewriting nearly the whole thing to fit your needs. It’s a faster (shittier) stack overflow.

bro, this was a joke. guy saying that human bad, not making any meaningful statements on AI.
Both, I was using gpt4 for some processing of text. The July 20th update came about and for the exact same input it could nolonger follow my directions, I had to tweak the prompt a bunch to handle a whole new set of edge cases.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is it possible to combine Bluetooth audio connections to one headset?
6·2 years agoThe feature is often not very well advertised, a pair of bt nc headphone I am looking at seem to not list it prominently despite being, imo, a pretty important feature. Searching by letter might not get you any accurate idea of what does and does not support multipoint.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Eye glasses wearers in the US, where do you buy your glasses from these days?
6·2 years agoBought a pair from Zenni some 3 years ago for literally pennies (15$ for the frames, 10 for lenses). I have since carelessly snapped them (but keep elongating their lifespan unnaturally with super glue). Gonna buy my next pair from Zenni. I swear by them now for how cheap and durable these are, rarely had a pair of glasses survive 2 years before, and these were so much cheaper.
They also have regular people levels of quality, but I’m poor so it’s nice they have shit for people like me too.
Python is the connective tissue holding together library calls and some of our most advanced AI research is reliant on that. mildly concerning

Science@lemmy.ml•Scientists face impossible choice over preservation of priceless blue crab blood: Let vital medicines wither or an endangered bird
2·2 years agoTo be honest, I too headed straight for the comments without reading the article. But I didn’t comment till I read it. It’s also not technically a crab either, despite being called one.
Wait till you hear about oracle machines. They can solve any problem, even the halting problem.
(It’s just another mathematical construct that you can do cool things with to prove certain things)

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How far from a forest fire do you have to be for a daily temperature record to count?
252·2 years agoWell, the record high temperatures are what cause the forest fires so we do have to take that into account. And the radiant heat that the fire gives off dissipates with the inverse square law so that limits it’s contribution. Really it seems that the only major contributing factor to the increased heat, other than the effects of the already high ambient temperature and thus the decreased apparent humidity, are the excitation of the air molecules as they are transformed from elemental oxygen and plant matter into hydrogen hydroxide and carbon dioxide, along with other molecules due to incomplete combustion and contaminates. Overall I think a safe bet would be 2.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Those who tried Linux and went back to Windows, what caused you to go back to Windows?
2·2 years agoNo, and I explained that steam works perfectly fine on Linux.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Those who tried Linux and went back to Windows, what caused you to go back to Windows?
391·2 years agoNecessity. When most of the software you use is reliant on Windows it’s hard to make Linux your daily driver. That being said, the changes needed to make it worth it are already done in limited contexts. Steam deck is pure Linux, the user interface and everything is implemented in a way that the user does not have to deal with the complexity, but the underlying mechanisms for doing wonky shit is still there if you want to mess with it. It’s kinda the best of both worlds in that sense.
If we wanted a desktop experience to replicate that, you would just have to do the exact same thing. Abstract the user experience such that the layperson does not need to engage with the complicated bits, but leave them there for those that do want them. And arguably that is being done with some distros, but it’s just not quite there yet.
This was ~15 years ago. We got a laptop with school credentials on it, but couldn’t log in to the local admin account, only our own student network accounts so couldn’t do anything fun with it. No problem, install Linux on a flash drive, plug that in, run a script to crack the admin account (thanks rainbow tables) and get in. It was not a very strong password. A lot you can do now. Install games, browse the web unfiltered, and so on, but problem is our use of the laptop was limited to the after school activity we were part of (robotic club obviously) so still not really too much fun to be had unless we wanted to get caught pretty quickly. But there was one thing, we could grab the WiFi password. Turns out that it’s only hidden on the student accounts, on the admin account you just click on the WiFi network and it just gives it to you. We didn’t plan for it but we didn’t take advantage of it. We shared that password to a couple friends but in general kept it under wraps, this was before data plans were so wide spread so it was actually useful, and the school itself was a faraday cage for anything but the weakest cell signal. Best part, it worked in other schools too, so I’m pretty sure it got spread pretty far eventually. I graduated before they changed it, no clue what happen after though.
We also took the balls out of the mice. And put tape on the optical ones.

Idk about anyone else but its a bit long. Up to q10 i took it seriously and actually looked for ai gen artifacts (and got all of them up to 10 correct) and then I just sorta winged it and guessed and got like 50% of them right. OP if you are going to use this data anywhere I would first recommend getting all of your sources together as some of those did not have a good source, but also maybe watch out for people doing what I did and getting tired of the task and just wanting to see how well i did on the part i tried. I got like 15/20
For anyone wanting to get good at seeing the tells, focus on discontinuities across edges: the number or intensity of wrinkles across the edge of eyeglasses, the positioning of a railing behind a subject (especially if there is a corner hidden from view, you can imagine where it is, the image gen cannot). Another tell is looking for a noisy mess where you expect noisy but organized: cross-hatching trips it up especially in boundary cases where two hatches meet, when two trees or other organic looking things meet together, or other lines that have a very specific way of resolving when meeting. Finally look for real life objects that are slightly out of proportion, these things are trained on drawn images, and photos, and everything else and thus cross those influences a lot more than a human artist might. The eyes on the lego figures gave it away though that one also exhibits the discontinuity across edges with the woman’s scarf.
