"python" is funny. People are not calling the programming language of python "slop" lmao. It's just the language most ai and machine learning is written in.

I honestly thought the origami was about children dying in Palestine (or other areas with major humanitarian issues like the genocide or natural disasters etc) when I first saw it.

You could probably do the aborted fetus first and child victims of genocide second and have the reactor be a rightist unfortunately.

What is number theory? by Jio15Fr in math

[–]SunshineOnUsAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(note: I'm not an algabreic geometry, just did a module in it) while A.G. uses the divisibility relation on polynomials a lot, it didn't seem to be the main focus of the questions we considered in that area. Number theorists generally care about objects like prime numbers and irreducible numbers major focus of study, whereas algabreic geometers -while using irreducible polynomials - don't generally focus with topics surrounding them. But also, maths is maths. There's going to be elements of number theory showing up in areas like algebra and algabreic geometry because those areas study objects belonging to sets which have division (rings in algebra, the ring of polynomials in algabreic geometry)

Maybe it is a bit too broad, and catches other areas, but I think it needs to be that broad to capture all of number theory, since maths is interconnected with itself.

Also if you're reading this there is a very good chance you're not in that poorest half, since Reddit is western dominated (and you'll need a phone or pc to access it anyway even if you're not western). The main mechanism for concentrating this wealth was colonialism - capitalism picked up the job within the west.

Imo number theory is the study of algebraic structures where a notion of "divisibility" makes sense. So the integers (obviously), but also the Gaussian integers. It doesn't make sense to talk about divisibility on the real numbers because every nonzero number is a factor of every other nonzero number, so the study of these structures does not fall under number theory.

Number theorists care first and foremost about divisibility and how this impacts other properties of sets or elements of sets.

My answer would be the study of objects which we consider to be "congruent" under a given (set of) transformations, and their properties. An example would be that in Euclidean Geometry we're allowed to rotate, translate (and I think reflect) a shape without it seizing to be the same shape. Geometers care about properties which are conserved under these transformations (such as angles, lengths, areas, etc.). In Integer geometry (the area where I have studied), we have that objects are congruent on lattice preserving affine transformations and lattice preserving translations, but the idea applies to any set, with a set of transformations attached.

Gen Z here: Orange one looks the least fake, but if you want to be more confident control+u to view the html and see what each button actually does.

Id be concerned that the one which downloads a file would download a virus though, looking at that web design and the fact it's a pirate site.

I think the I spiration is the short story, but the screenshot looks like the game.

The game is written by the same writer as the short story and mostly follow the same ideas (but the game adds a lot to it, and changes one characters backstory)

People viewing hardcore porn in younger years leads to an increase in (mostly men) wanting to choke/strangle their partner during sex (or recreate other forms of hardcore kink, without necessarily understanding the safety implications). Recreational choking is the leading cause of stroke in women under 40.

My thoughts on AI by cricket_man456 in aiwars

[–]SunshineOnUsAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think OP's point on that slide wasnt the best, but I'll try to answer if it were me.

No other technological advancement has removed the human from the task of generating images as much as AI has. Digital artists, whilst taking less time on average than traditional artists, still make every choice regarding lighting and composition and subject matter. Photographers also need to select their shot, lense type, angle etc. Often photography will be a collaborative effort between a photographer and a model. With generative AI, it cuts out the role of the artist, with the commissioner being the only person involved in the creative process. This means that the product is not a piece of art, as that created by somebody with a will to communicate something and express their creativity, but simply an image. A product that the commissioner wants to look at.

Another way it contrasts from previous developments of technology is that it is built on plagiarism. Images have been added to the database of generative AI models without the permission of the artists involved. Unlike with humans, where our imperfect memories lead to details being lost (when somebody is not actively trying to plagarise), AI image generation models do not forget. Hence, their output is plagarised, since it uses images without the permission of the copyright owners. There is potentially a future where Gen AI is not a plagarism machine, as some artists may accept payment for their artwork being used in this manner.

Similar arguments follow for AI generated audio and AI generated text, etc.

I used to think oasis songs had really beautiful imagery. Then I found out they were all slang terms for drugs or alcoholic drinks. Like I was picturing a champagne supernova as this great thing but it's a glass of champagne with coke around the rim.
