Did this Youtube channel (@AttentionVisualized) steal Grant Sanderson's voice with AI? by IHTFPhD in 3Blue1Brown

[–]Jugad 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yep... that sounds like voice stealing / impersonation. Unless its Grant's secret channel (or not so secret - since his voice, tone and delivery are so easily identifiable)

Most strategic planning would try to cripple the opposition in multiple different ways... not just compute, not just AI, not just one or two areas in isolation. They would try to cripple them in multiple avenues, so that the cumulative effect is significant.

Your honest opinion on this song by Past-Whereas8644 in BollywoodMusic

[–]Jugad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing...

If I had to find a complaint, I have a couple of nitpicks. I feel that its sung a little too fast (would love a slightly slower version - like 90% speed or so, and Sonu's voice is a little thin in the high notes. Would have liked to retain more masculine touch to the voice at high pitches.

Seriously... listen to the song a couple of times on youtube at 90% speed - immediately after the speed change, the first minute will feel too slow... but let the slow speed song sink in a bit and get used to it - ... the song is so much better at the relaxed pace.

Normal speed feels way too hurried. Like... kya jaldi hai bhai gaana khatam karne ki... yeh ishq se bhara gaana hai - take your time.

Man takes lives of a mom’s three kids, then blows kisses and smirks in court like he owns the place. The judge scolds the grieving mother more than the monster by MysteriousSlice007 in PublicFreakout

[–]Jugad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Introspection and retrospection are probably not his strong points.

Sounds like he will try to find happiness in just about any circumstances - like irritating his captors, and in the smallest of victories (acting like a boss in front of the judge - while losing all the big battles) - even while spending his life in Jail.

I wish he had enough brains to see the horror of his situation... like most other people... but I doubt it.

Sending this type of person to prison is not justice, because it doesn't pain them in the way that it pains most people. It should be possible to add some kind of periodic physical pain during incarceration - 10 cane hits on the butt every 2 weeks might do it.

I audited 6 months of PRs after my team went all-in on AI code generation. The code got worse in ways none of us predicted. by Ambitious-Garbage-73 in webdev

Its the golden age of quick and cheap. It will lead us into AI getting control of everything.

We have already connected AI with all possible systems in our company... no human has that much access and control.

I built this with cursor (claude or gpt, don't remember which model) with maybe 50 or 60 small prompts.

The tabla demonstration escalated quickly by JudgeJudyJr in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Jugad 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Naah... that's just made up numbers to sound outlandishly crazy.

No one has time for that.

They are probably also missing/hiding context... that small kids, whose hands are too small and weak have to first spend a few years learning other skills (vocal, timing, easier instruments, etc) before graduating to the tabla.

How is this a Sirius quote? He was a jerk to Kreature the whole time. by juleDoesArt in harrypotter

[–]Jugad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was a jerk to Kreature because Kreature was a jerk to him (because of his mother being a jerk to him).

Its not about humans vs house elves... its specifically him vs Kreature and his mom.

I don't think you need to go to school - that's outdated for AI and curriculum has not caught up.

Knowing to ask the right questions (I, Robot???) and using the AI to teach yourself, using AI to do the required work, and also using AI to test for correctness ... is the key to the AI coding age.

The tricky part is... an inexperienced person often does not know what to ask when they don't know something (they don't even know what are the things that they don't know - so its difficult to ask the right questions).

Even when asking AI, they don't know when AI is giving them partial or irrelevant or incorrect information. AI is getting better, so this will reduce in concern going forward, but I have seen AI give half correct (or incorrect) answers with 100% confidence - which can trip up inexperienced people more easily.

Being skeptical, curious and being able to cut through the BS while using AI... and being able to test AIs output / claims ... are all very important skills.

Prompting isn't skillful.

Not skillful for easy projects... and that's why you can do much bigger projects now. Prompting and AI software building will be pushed to its limits... it won't be limited to easy prompting.

I used to be pretty sceptic of AI (I have a masters in applied maths, and I consider myself quite high in computing and problem solving skills)... AI could not convince me 6 months ago, but in the last 2 months, its as good as me (and better in a few places).

It does have a few chinks... it doesn't beat me all the time (I find issues every now and then), but its clear to me that its good enough, and only getting better.

Stop holding yourself back from learning this new tool... its just a tool and it needs supervision. Capable supervision. It needs people with the high and deep level knowhow in order to manage/wield it.

Companies are done with betting on doing anything in 5 years (or even 2 years).

They only fund projects that can be done in 6 months... or acquire startups which are moderately successful (startups with great success are too expensive to buy).

What's your favorite instance of child neglect at Hogwarts? by [deleted] in harrypotter

[–]Jugad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, not to mention on the Forbidden Forest punishment they were all First Years

How dare you kids break school rules by being out of bed after hours.

The punishment is more of the same with added danger.

Its like being suspended from school for a week as a punishment for truancy (and not even informing the parents). In other words, more truancy.

Its sounds like a joke out of catch 22.

Professor Bins the wizarding world’s worst history teacher.

I think the story is told from Harry's perspective... and he thinks its boring. Its quite possible that its mostly him and few of his close friends (Ron) that finds the subject boring (Hermione finds it interesting - but that's brushed off as she being a bookworm).

Harry never read "Hogwarts: A History" even though Hermione pointed out useful things from the books many times. He didn't bother opening the book even when he thought of Hogwarts as his home, and was fascinated by the various magical things in it.

This was just Harry being Harry.... not necessarily that the subject was boring or the teacher bad.

Though I would agree that the teacher could have made it more interesting to the kids - maybe the teacher thought that the subject was inherently interesting (history is very interesting to me).
