  • AI-generated poetry is indistinguishable from human-written poetry and is rated more favorably - Scientific Reports

    Jump

  • So you're out of arguments and resort to ad hominem?

    Well, that's not very poetic of you.

  • Or, there simply isn't anything to "get".

    Art is often enough deliberately made in such a way that you can't know what was meant, without knowing beforehand what the artist meant. Framing that as some form of sophistication is simply delusional gatekeeping. It's the attempt to set the own class apart, nothing more.

    These are memes. Symbols that only make sense, if you know the reference. Treating these as indicators for anything is just an attempt to create an in-group.

  • Or maybe accept that this idea was crap all along?

    You desperately try to create some form of human superiority, just to feel important. That superiority doesn't exist. There's no value in anything just because it's made with "love", that's an illusion.

  • Most people don't "get" poetry.

    Did you channel your edgy 15 year old self for that? That's incredibly arrogant and self absorbed.

  • If it's literally indistinguishable from human poetry, about as many people want to read it as there are people wanting to read human poetry. And that's about 12.

  • Or, maybe, we have to accept that art and all the grandiose and deep narratives around it are bullshit. It's an illusion, it's just a tool so some of us feel more important.

    All that crap about not being made by humans is just the fear that the illusion of grandeur of humans might collapse.

  • What I find really worrying though is the trend to pick headlines that don't summarize, but sensationalize and twist the content. And that's not just a tabloid problem.

    I know that this is designed to generate more clicks, but since most people skip most of the content, only the headlines stick. And if these are wrong, misinformation will stick.

  • And let's be honest: 90% of news articles don't contain more relevant information for me than the headline.

    "Politician said X" has almost never any effect on my life.

    I just scrolled through the front page of Der Spiegel. The first 10 articles are speculations about campaign decisions, analyses of things already known, and opinion pieces of some mildly knowledgeable people.

    Yeah, that's mostly irrelevant. Yes, some background would be nice, but I don't have time to read about everything that isn't of consequence for me anyway.

  • Germany is currently considering a third way: they ask you.

    Everyone in Germany has health insurance, so the idea is that the health insurance simply asks you directly to decide. Most people are in favor of organ donation, but never actually get an organ donor card or talk to their relatives. Asking them to decide won't get anywhere near the donor rates of an opt-out scheme, but it could drastically increase them.

  • The dead end of chips: Manufacturing semiconductors consumes as much energy as entire countries

    Jump

  • And that's mostly the "bullshit IoT" category. It's not like the demand for phones and laptops exploded in the last years, it's IoT, AI and other useless crap - regardless of the process node.

  • The dead end of chips: Manufacturing semiconductors consumes as much energy as entire countries

    Jump

  • We could start by not requiring new chips every few years.

    For 90% of the users, there hasn't been any actual gain within the last 5-10 years. Older computers work perfectly fine, but artificial slow downs and bad software cause laptops to feel sluggish for most users.

    Phones haven't really advanced either. But apps and OSes are too bloated, hardware impossible to repair, so a new phone it is.

    Every device nowadays needs wifi and AI for some reason, so of course a new dishwasher has more computing power than an early Cray, even though nothing of that is ever used.

    Jump

  • What exactly do you think these chips are used for?

    Because it's often enough AI, crypto and bullshit IoT.

  • Boeing allegedly overcharged the military 8,000% for airplane soap dispensers

    Jump

  • I'm 90% sure these deals are a way to funnel money into defense contractors without having a suspicious paper trail.

    Overcharge a bit here and there, and by sheer volume you get a nice shadow budget to build and operate things that aren't even supposed to exist.

  • Admittedly, I only ever entered an operating room under anesthesia, but could you just, you know, put the displays somewhere else?

    This seems like one of those informercial "problems".
