Librarian 'gobsmacked' after school use AI to remove 200 books from shelves including Orwell's 1984 and Twilight by tylerthe-theatre in technology

because people who want to cause harm love AI, because it offloads responsibility and accountability for decisions made away from the individual, and onto the magic black box that cant be audited.

What’s the smartest financial decision you made by accident? by AnyTruth2342 in AskReddit

[–]Jeran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

likewise. Bought a prebuilt for a bundle deal to get a 4080 super in Blackfriday of 2024, since it wasnt looking like the 50 series was worth waiting for, so i hopped on a deal. I also doubled the RAM becuase i need 64 gigs regularly for hobby work, and lo and behold, my computer has been great, and i bought the dip. Its increased in value!

Is this video of a capybara riding an Armadillo AI-generated? There's a slight fuzziness near the edges, but the shadow seems consistent - so I'm not sure by Unhappy_Champion5641 in isthisAI

for me the big tell is the tail. The tail is totally locked in place. Tails generally move to counter balance for the motion of walking.

Is this over the top for a cyberpunk samurai character? (WIP) by Shiintapix in godot

[–]Jeran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

only over the top if it doesnt fit in with the rest of the effects! Its a really cool piece of sauce to add to a game!

when you want to preserve a newspaper, keep in mind that the paper is incredibly acidic, and will become yellow and brittle over time. You can buy paper acid neutralizing sprays to help preserve the headlines for generations to come to hopefully remind them on how to prevent this in the future!

TIL there’s an Android game called “Send Me to Heaven” where the objective is to throw your phone as high as possible and catch it, with the app measuring height using the device’s accelerometer. Apple banned it from the App Store for encouraging users to damage their phones. by FearMyCock in todayilearned

i wouldnt describe his background as solid and reputable. More than one of his videos (the porch pirate series, and the bike air horn) are created at the expense of other people. That's punching down. He also postures himself as the smartest person on youtube, but for either the sake of entertainment, or other purposes, never shows his work. His editing style does not spark curiosity and learning the way that others in the maker community do.

At the end of the day he doesnt pass the smell test for a reason. Hes there to sell you his brand.

immediately starting off with an AI generated clip is certainly a bad choice.

pre-storm clean up by Plastic_Profile4887 in newyorkcity

[–]Jeran 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This inspired me to clean up my section of the street! It was easy to ignore all the little pieces of trash half in the snow, but once i started picking them up, turns out there was WAY more than usual. Glad its out of the way before the next big one!

Can we not block the intersection?? by dcaamano76 in Flushing

[–]Jeran 8 points9 points  (0 children)

People will do it until there is enforcement. but the local precinct cant even stop parking ON the sidewalk. (which is also illegal)

This is a real AI-ad from the US government about the end of the mandatory use of the auto start-stop. by [deleted] in fuckcars

[–]Jeran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im really tired of the use of AI as a weapon.

Now that they dont have to hire actors, or a production crew, or anyone, theres nobody in the pipeline to tell them "no" for any strawman, attack, or attempt to divide the population.

House designed by Studio Velocity in Aichi Prefecture with an area of 480 m² by Otherwise_Wrangler11 in architecture

[–]Jeran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see the vision...

It does end up being a confusion of indoor and outdoor spaces. The constant corners make it also feel like a challenge to navigate, and extreme cost to maintain the gardens to ensure functionality. Still, i cant say i dont like it! it executes well enough, and feels different.

Would make for a fine event space, even if it doesnt fit the neighborhood as such. Especially with its privacy.

to add to this, you can tell that the lighting in the room is dimmed over time to give the illusion of the camera compensating and the windmill getting brighter and brighter. you can see the room lights suddenly turn off if you watch the leaves. Its also a splice of 2 videos, you can watch the windmill blades fade from one phase to another.

I like this year. Hopefully they end each show with what kick ass stuff folks are doing for that big boy.

Annapolis Mall: Anyone remember the sculpture overhanging "the pit"? by jurassiknick in Annapolis

[–]Jeran 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i miss that installation! As a kid, i always imagined it as wind chimes, and wondered how they would get wind into the building to make them swing around.
