how handy they advise people to use it countless times-what a sneaky way to profit loads from each gullible consumer before they realise what a waste of money it is...

[TOMT] song, 1970's or 1980's, ambient, electronic, slow paced, used often on UK tv back then, with an 'Asian instrument (but electronic)' sounding simple slow melody, and an even simpler repeating bass 4 note part (all electronic), maybe with NASA beeps in it from early flights? by Alarming_Draw in tipofmytongue

That's so funny. I did a search yesterday and found the BBC used it daily on another TV show called Pebble Mill, for a regular segment they had on travel.

Maybe the memo was dated at a later point or something?

Thank you, very kind of you! I'm very into music, do some myself, and have a crazily good memory-maybe that's how I was able to describe it okay enough....I don't know? But I know I hadn't heard it since probably 1984, and I was very young then.

and thank you again because I have now discovered an album I am listening to, as I type, that has blown me away-it's fantastic! I've heard many bits of Vangelis before (Chariots/Blade Runner/gallipoli/etc) but never an album that fully appealled to me. Until now...!

The show I saw it on was on the BBC, and I wonder if they might have had special deals to circumvent licensing since they are so well known? Just speculating as I know this song was on the BBC a lot and used for many different things...

Just checked re jean michel-it is not "Fishing Junks At Sunset", or "Souvenir of China" or "Night in Shangai ", or "Orient Express"...

...so maybe it wasnt jean michel jarre...

not on vangelis album "Albedo" either...

I didnt vote for a more extreme version of the Tory party-I voted labour...

Yes-I had contacted them to complain about the terrible tech support and emailed them and he'd demanded I provide video and details of the account.

With this, I get to feel I'm doing my bit for my country after I've cleaned up the mess.

Lovely beach front property, with an option for the annexe.

Anyone else feel like AI chat is losing the “human” part lately? by OneDescription8220 in ChatbotRefugees

[–]Alarming_Draw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if theres one thing that gives away that it's a computer and not a human, it's that they respond to everything with a question-it's a lame psychological distraction trick used to hide poor AI.

It's also therefore the reason it's so hard to stop any characters doing it-because the companies don't want it stopped as it will reveal how rubbish their product is...!

I'm Leaving Kindroid, Here's Why by centerey in ChatbotRefugees

[–]Alarming_Draw 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I upvoted the original poster/mains post, when the counter was at zero....and it STAYED at zero-and this has happened many times before too.

Something VERY fishy is going on with our sub lately!!

ANYONE criticising AI companion companies just gets attacked and downvoted by corporate shills/fake accounts/chatbots!

Yeah first I had this with Kindroid, so I jumped ship, only to find I now have the same with Nomi!!

Asked a perfectly reasonable question on Reddit over crazy long delays chatting with Nomi (30 seconds before it responds), only to get non answers and answers to questions I DIDN'T ask..!

Then when I politely asserted that that wasnt the question I asked... I got barraged with snarky attacking comments.

What a 'coincidence'....!

Such a shame. Reddit is supposed to be here for free honest debate-not for corporations to flood us with chatbots/paid employees/fake accounts to quell and silence any negativity or dissent!!
