This is kind of funny, who would have thought that #Hillary and #Trump would have this in common? Bill was like, "whoever wins gets to suc . . .". #Bill has the 2 most famous BJ's in American History. lol

I don't care how big he makes the ball room, Trump will NEVER have big balls!

sorry, i have an . . . odd sense of humor. You probably know that by now though . . . I suppose.

I hate facebook btw. Hate, HATE.

Oh, why not just "got this from God" lol?

No Kings, No Kings, No Kings

talk about your all time backfire, i mean . . . if you are Trump lol

#Iran #Trump #War

When Tucker Carlson starts making sense, it's time to update your medication.

While I can't stand Tucker McPhuckstick, he really esploited the absolute ignorance of Ted, and it was funny. You really should know about the country you are proposing going to war with. Dropping bombs and sending in troops should never be taken lightly.

free speech is free speech, if what you say promotes hate and intolerance, that doesn't mean it's not free speech, it just means the speech you are making is hateful and intolerant. Hateful intolerant people also have free speech, like it or not.

What is "minimal" about qutebrowser? What functionality is this full fledged chromium based browser with vim style navigation and input missing that makes it so?

no, Belle means beauty

Even with like 70% of what is posted on facebook being AI, it is hard to switch over completely.

If the frequency of the words chosen was the determining factor then the sentences and stories it produce would not just be boring, but incomprehensible. Boring they are, but they are cohesive.

on a creative front. But what you are saying isn't based in reality. The patterns are EVERYTHING, the words are arbitrary and based on the patterns and other factors. Maybe somewhere down the line frequency means a little, but "all it does is choose words by frequency" is simply wrong.

I am sorry but no, you are wrong. No one is ever going to generate an award winning story with AI because AI can't be creative, it can only produce. That should be a given. And for every reason under the sun you have already seen the best AI as it stands today, and probably forever will have

Terrible comparison lol. The patterns determine the words used, not the frequency of ghe individual words. Choosing words based on their frequency is a simple tool that has been employed for a couple decades now. Its part of autocorrect on your phone.

#Linux obsession continues. Blazing through all the wm's. Hyprland took over for qtile a few months ago, now I am on DWM and it is hands down my favorite. Think I will give dwl a chance next. Why not? I will wait a bit though.

I get borrowing snippets of config files to learn . . . but to just grab someone else's #hyprland dot files and use them will make it painful to troubleshoot. Better to suffer the learning-curve and do it yourself. That way you know exactly how to fix anything that might come up. Hyprland is easy.

In my opinion using pre-made dot-files takes all the fun out of the thing. it is grat for "trying it on for size" but in the end, it is never really yours. Again . . . just my opinion. Also, . . trouble shooting someone else's work sucks. I guess all that matters is if you like it though.

You are not missing anything. I do agree with his overall premise. Although, I wouldn't say it is crazy, just unnecessary. There are times when AI can be helpful where a simple google search isn't really, but I guess some people have just completely defaulted to AI searches when they don't need to.

lol FOX NEWS jk

First hand man. Although you won't lend any weight to that, I suggest you try it for yourself. Write a couple simple starter programs, purposely doing it poorly, find the first 100 primes or finding numeric palindromes based on multiplying 2 digit numbers etc etc.

I am too tired to explain myself better, so maybe tomorrow I will try again, but the frequency of which a word is used is NOT a determining factor in any way. That is putting the hart before che course. :).

you can do quite well with open source. I would give Krita the advantage over photoshop when it comes to actual "painting". Gimp is okay for the very basics of photo manipulation but not great lol. It depends on what you want to do with it. I have PS and Krita and ALWAYS do my painting on Krita.

:) U missed my point. That's fine. No one "needs" it. It was a point. If you can present AI with terribly written code no one else would ever write in a million years and it can complete it, what does that say about AI? Predicting simple logic is nothing compared to that, for a computer.

no, you said " it reads everything and then generates a brand-new sentence that guesses which word should come next based on how frequently that word is used in the text it has memorized". That is not how it works, that is more like the keyboard on smart hpones, not generative AI.

Artificial intelligence does not equate in ANY way to consciousness.

Most of the time a simple google search will do. Sometimes though, an AI request does a lot better. It depends on the situation, which is why I feel google should set ai as an OPTION that can only be explored AFTER a simple google search.

it can succesfully complete your bad illogical code more often then not. It is great at generating predictable outcomes, which is precisely why I find the other topic on this post to be kind of funny. Mystery novels are not generated to be predictable, they are written to be everything but.

This is false. Generative AI has nothing to do with the frequency of words it reads. It has built massive pattern recognition databases from billions of data-points all around the internet. It can use that pattern recognition to generate predictable results. If you are a coder, even a bad one
