  • But it used popular guides online. That a human made.

    It didn't think "oh I should really go above and beyond to make sure this person gets the perfect color".

    It doesn't have such motivations since it's a probability formula it instead searches reddit comments and popular websites and uses that information.

    These are popular in the first place because they provided good information. Ai doesn't pull from a reddit post with 10 downvotes. Or a website with little information and even less traffic.

    And This is how dead internet works.

    The websites ai stole that information from only invested in making such guides to pull traffic to their site which likely sells something.

    When these guides no longer pull in traffic to their store because Google just stole their tutorials or guides (without crediting the humans that made them) , stores will stop creating guides, tutorials and the like.

    Why would they invest in creating knowledge when AI is just going to steal it?

    They won't.

    In a matter of years there will be no new innovation or guidelines made and vetted by humans. Just AI that stole it from AI that stole it from AI ......that stole it from a human who wrote it 10 years ago to the point where the guide isn't even relevant anymore. And AI has added a bunch of made up sounding things at every iteration so it's now all just nonsense.

  • New York sculptor spent $100,000 to make a Charlie Kirk statue no one wants to buy

  • I didn't like the guy okay. But honestly at this point some of the shit the right has done to him seems really disrespectful.

    Like way beyond a leftist saying "charlie kirk was a racist, misogynistic grifter"

    Like what they do is well beyond discussing traits.

    It's almost like they taxidermy-ed him (or whatever the word is) to roll him around to sell cheap shit to people who never knew who he was until he died.

    This statue. His wife's behavior. The "pregnancy" . TPU

    It's all so deranged.

    I don't agree with his profession but let's be a little honest. It was a grift. He likely didn't believe half the shit he said. But that's all he will ever be known for.

    Kinda sad.

    But also this "artist" sounds like a grifter themselves. Just thought they could do a cash grab.

    "I wasn’t a fan of Charlie,” he said. “Like one thing that I couldn’t stand about him while he was alive [was] when he was talking about Palestine. [Kirk would say]: ‘Oh no, Palestine doesn’t exist.’ I thought: ‘Well, this guy must be out of his mind.’”

  • No it's not an example of advance anything.

    It pulls information based on what you, a human asked it to do and it used information commonly found on guides. That a human made.

    It's a glorified search engine.

  • Hey can you ferengi fans help me with something cause I don't want to watch every ds9 episode to find it (I just did like 2 months ago).

    There is a ferengi episode where Quark walks into a room/house/place and he deposits coins in a big gold head of the magus (I think it's the magus).

    I know it's custom to pay when entering places in ferengi world. But specifically I'm looking for the episode with the big head.

    I want to 3d design a replica and make it a piggy bank. I'm pretty sure Quark put the coins in the ears.

    So it's a good design for a piggy bank.

    I just need to find it so I can make sure I get the basic details right.

  • Dude. Ai is statistical formulas.

    Just because it "feels" insightful does not make it anything more than probabilities.

    If you create it yourself, you surely understand this.

    Ai is a system designed to mimic.

    Don't be fooled by a mimic.

    You give it "life". You interpret ai as being more than it actually is.

    I'm starting to think AI psychosis really is a thing. Way too many people seem to think it's actually alive. Or has consciousness.

    It understands nothing. It only regurgitates.

    And when I was talking about trial and error I'm referring to the so-called problem solving AI systems being applied to many things.

  • I have two masters and am working on finishing up my PhD. I research depth perception.

    The reason I have two masters is because I had a masters from a university before applying to a PhD program. The PhD program also is a 5 year masters/PhD combination degree so I got a second master's in the same field during this program.

    It's a little annoying to have two masters in the same field but it is what it is.

    Cognitive neuroscience is a branch of psychology. Both my associates and bachelor's are psych.

    I got my associates at a community college. My b.a at state. My first masters in the UK because it was cheaper. And my current university is a private research focused university.

    You are free to review my comment history. I've been consistent in my claims of my education because I don't lie.

    You can dismiss what I say because you want to believe in the magic ai.

    But I took coursework on statistics for all of my degrees with the exception of my associates.

    Including both masters.

    I've attended conferences and presentations on neural networks. They are probability models. They use anovas and linear correlation stats to make probability models.

    They originally were developed using games with changing rules to see if they could predict how persistent the person would be in using old rules after a few trials gave people the chance to realize the game had new rules.

    I actually made a complaint during that presentation that the name "neural network" was misleading.

    It was a behavioral probability model.

    The probability model was not invented for these studies but these are the early research using the term ",neural networks".

    With the goal of applying these "neural networks" to marketing and advertising. of which I found unethical and still do.

    But if you are a researcher, working for a big corp to manipulate people is where the money is. So a lot of grads do it.

    And just to give you a little example of what an actual neural network looks like.

    Here is one of a monkey. Because doing the experiments to map human ones is unethical and not done.

    This image is from a volume by Fellman and Essen, 1991. Hard to find online but this image is in many textbooks as an example to show how little we have mapped of the human visual cortex.

    Even a simple primate has a highly complex network. And not all paths are used for a given stimuli.

    This is all I'm going to provide because in the past I've spent enormous amounts of time getting links and content to explain the basics of neuroscience to people online who can't be bothered to read it because they prefer to have some imaginary belief about it that simplifies it.

    It ain't simple.

    If you want to learn about the topic more I will just recommend watching a YouTube course lecture series.

    There are a few. Just search "cognitive neuroscience class"

    But I doubt you will because you'd rather have your imaginary magic sentient AI (that's just a statistical formula) and believe you understand how the brain works even though you never studied it.

  • I'm a cognitive neuroscientist and I'm knowledgeable about these "neural networks". They are in fact , not like the brain.

    They are probability models.

    The human brain does not use mathematical probability. Nor does it use information the way probability models use it.

    The only way that they are like the brain is that both can be visualized like a network of nodes that connect with lines.

    "Visualized" . Meaning an artistic representation.

    That's where the similarities end.

    They are not capable of novel generation except that can remash existing procedures with other procedures that humans programmed them to do, into infinite combinations.

    This is not creation. It's not innovation.

    It's systematic trial-and-error based on human solutions.

    And sometimes after a million iterations, a handful work.

    A human wouldn't have needed to approach the problem like that. We rarely problem solve systematically because it's inefficient and we are way better at finding solutions through our own methods.

    We only use systematic methods in research and then we still use novel problem solving to implement focused systematic methods. We have limited time and funding usually so we have to be smart about it and not do every combination. Also doing big systematic methods increases a type 1 error.

    Which AI does a lot of.

  • Ai doest infer or understand anything

    It is just probability formulas.

    It can only copy what a human has already done. Only apply it how a human tells it to.

  • DSA debates how to debate AOC presidential endorsement

    Jump

  • "Of course I voted against it,” she wrote. “What it does do is cut off defensive Iron Dome capacities while allowing the actual bombs killing Palestinians to continue.” Ocasio-Cortez emphasized that her focus remains on ending the flow of US munitions “used to perpetuate the genocide in Gaza,” adding that she does not believe “adding to the death count of innocent victims to this war is constructive to its end.”

    So she voted against cutting off funding to iron dome but continuing to fund munitions.

    So she voted against continuing funding amunitions.

    There are a lot of these Israel funding bills that are making it so they win $$ from the U.S either way.

  • What brand of filament do you trust that is not sunlu (no navy blue)

    Jump

  • I've honestly only had one bad roll ever.

    I've bought a ton of cheap 3djhor filament with no issues.

    I've tried at least 20 brands.

    I can say my ender was way more finicky than my Bambu is. The Bambu rarely has issues even with filament my ender struggled with.

    Also the only filament I have had to be choosey with is silks.

    And brand is just one factor. I've had good rolls of one color from a brand and not so great of a different color. Same brand.

    Basically poor overhangs. But otherwise they all print well. Just some do worse on overhangs.

    Maybe fixed by slowing the print speed down but not usually a big deal on whatever I was printing.

    What kind of printer do you have ?
