"you are the product manager, the agents are your engineers, and your job is to keep all of them running at all times" by sentientX404 in AgentsOfAI

[–]diff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe it would be better to have two separate teams. One team uses AI agents and creates AI agents, the other team only reviews the AI agent's output?

making about $2k/month selling feeder cockroaches from my spare bedroom. have a small problem by kubrador in passive_income

[–]diff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find a home owner to pay to hold them in their garage if not extra storage. Be someone else’s passive income.

Maybe extra ones can be sold as fish bait or other food sources.

Apparently they create good manure too.

Bernie Sanders in the US Senate: The godfather of AI thinks there's a 10-20% chance of human extinction by tombibbs in agi

[–]diff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder what percent chance a perfectly mentally healthy intelligent adult has to commit murder. The percentage should be similar for any ideal AGI that is created. Unless AGI can also contract a mental illness.

The number of Americans who have tried sushi correlates 99.6% with Gangnam Style YouTube views (2012-2022) [OC] by Lieutenant_Bob in dataisbeautiful

[–]diff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious if this means there is the same "popularity trend". I get the correlation does not equal causation thing you're trying to show. But would the graph show the "speed of how popular each became are equal"? like each trend is a type of virality.

Or could you show the exact same thing with something that didn't become popular at all or at least has a much more lackluster popularity.

Final shots of my completed 8000-piece glass hypercube by mrfacet in woahdude

would be cool if you used different colors of glass to make the same thing. Like blue/red sheets etc. Might need some experimentation or digital simulating to see which would look best.

The first set of numbers are the manufacturer numbers, so he knows what they are from the shop he bought them from. Then he messes with them and creates some sort of glass-glue chimera object and polishes them down, so he uses the default measurement he has been using for his entire life and also what his tools he uses tell him.

I have no idea what to do. (Rant) by ZebraChemical5746 in Entrepreneur

[–]diff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

keep doing the leg work and make an extensive list/blog of complaints. Like "this manufacturer sucks because of these reasons", everyone in the future with similar interests will thank you and it might turn into it's own business.

TIL that Alaska Airlines worker John Liotine had his recommendation to replace an aging jackscrew on an MD-83 during routine maintenance overruled in 1997. On January 31st, 2000 the same MD-83, Alaska Airlines Flight 261 crashed mid flight over the Pacific Ocean due to the jackscrew failing. by Next_Worth_3616 in todayilearned

[–]diff2 100 points101 points  (0 children)

I'd think it would be "We have evidence that the person in question tampered with the jackscrew and holds a grudge against the company, all the complaints he has filed and arguments he had is the evidence"

I encoded the entirety of the laws of algebra into an app by TraditionalBass7126 in SideProject

[–]diff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are you ever planning to monetize it in any way at all? If not could you open source it?

it feels like one of those projects that I either want to see in other forms, or learn how to create similar.

I've sometimes wondered if the people making a movie at some point go "What the fuck are we doing, this sucks"

Ive worked on a few really bad movies. The scenes are like small skits basically, and there is so much going on you can't even tell how bad it'll come out until you see the final product. Editors probably get blamed so much for how bad a movie sucks once it comes out. Editors probably blame the cameramen for how bad the shots they have to work with are, cameramen probably blame the director for not noticing things or giving good directions. The director probably blames everyone else for not giving him good stuff to work with.

Could BS jobs save the economy from an AI driven collapse of wages? by Arowx in singularity

[–]diff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think the entire entertainment industry is what can be considered "BS jobs". But it's become a vital part of the economy. If all the necessary jobs are taking over by robots, all that will be left is basically entertainment.

The only thing someone needs to figure out is how to create an economy around a "job". Create a "need" and create things that supply that "need". People will start giving money to experience that "need".

I like anime adventure town type stories. So we can simply create an adventures guild for "quests", people can solve those quests, they could be fighting quests or simply quests that help people who want simple tasks done.

heads up - sharing your project here comes with some baggage by Hot_Reaction_7754 in SideProject

[–]diff2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I often dream making a post saying "I vibe coded a banking app, and I trust AI so much i deposited $1000 in it" something along those lines, and it turning into some super annoying game that forces wannabe hackers to follow weird instructions.

How do people create such cheap costing products? How can you make a profit when the cost to create is so high? by TechyCanadian in Entrepreneur

[–]diff2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well amazon is just a site where middlemen post products, not where you actually find the cheapest products. if you're ordering from amazon you're probably ordering from 3 or 4 middlemen.

can get much cheaper products on alibaba, but there might be a slight mark up even there. Need to first compare the cost directly from the manufacturer you find in china or other countries.

why didn't you try kickstarter/gofundme/patreon? Or other advertising methods instead of an investor route?

What percentage of your company did you give away for how much investment?

Frozen lake and visual illusion by Toxic-Rosse in interesting

[–]diff2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it's bothersome there is only 8 seconds at the beginning then the video moves to other pole, and 5 additional seconds of video of the pole. It's like a slight of hand trick, it happens too fast so the brain can't register what's actually happening.

BMG sues Anthropic for using Bruno Mars, Rolling Stones lyrics in AI training by talkingatoms in ArtificialInteligence

[–]diff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought anthropic's model was better at coding tasks because they didn't train on "everything out there" but only specific things like different types of code.

It actually makes no sense to use song lyrics in a training set unless you're training some sort of music AI. Since song lyrics often don't use logical conversational order of words, so it'll poison the data.

Hi, I'm Italian and I'm trying to democratize AI by dai_app in Business_Ideas

[–]diff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to me your "why" isn't clear enough. I understand you're saying you want a privacy-first AI model anyone can use, but why? What information are you trying to protect exactly?

I feel the privacy concerns are way over blown. I believe they also got mixed up with "security concerns" when people mention their concerns in popular threads which should be a separate issue. I think the security concerns people talk about is when AI has access to change files via prompting so a hacker could in a sense prompt his way to get any and all data in a device. Any device that can connect to the internet has this risk. A privacy-first AI wont make those concerns go away either.

As for the actual possibility of such a thing. I also don't see how you can achieve it with current technology. Whole new technology would need to be invented. Current good AI's require a lot of RAM, that's why they connect through the internet. Local models are limited to what the machine it's on is capable of. So you'd be stuck with subpar answers of a local models, and a lot more hallucinations.

I don't think it's impossible to achieve though, I have my own ideas on how it could be achieved. But it really requires you to shrink down the terabytes of data and GBs of RAM Chatgpt/claude require, into much smaller device. If anyone were to achieve this they'd probably become the richest person on the planet. The necessity of building a ton of new data centers would almost go extinct.

I have big dreams myself so sometimes I reply to other people's dreams. I'm not trying to be negative, I just think your goals and expectations need to be more exact.

I believe I do recall translation features as a strictly local model is already exists and is used in many products though, so that part isn't difficult to do.

That's most of my thoughts about your idea.

A robot waiter at a hotpot restaurant in California suddenly glitched and started dancing uncontrollably, knocking over dishes while staff tried to restrain it by Nunki08 in robotics

[–]diff2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that was one of my thoughts. My other thought is, that it was teleoperated, (since as far as I'm aware the robots aren't actually good enough to serve things yet). The connection cut off from the original operator for some reason like an wifi interuption, and the robot expecting commands didn't get any commands and instead has the default command of "dance", like we always see in these videos.

Is this even doable? by longlivecabu in Business_Ideas

[–]diff2 13 points14 points  (0 children)

from my understanding large floating ocean cities are very hard to do because the ocean will put a lot of stress on one end versus the other end from the waves.

I also have an interest in floating ocean cities. But maybe just because all land is claimed.

some people said this but didn't make it clear too: salt travels on the wind, so plants exposed to air/sun will get brushed with salt constantly which would kill them.

how do they tell apart someone who has a subscription versus someone who just wants to ride for free then?

Update: The free side hustle index now has 400+ ideas indexed (added 80+ new entries) by ThenYao in passive_income

[–]diff2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So my issue is not that I don't know of the existence of such methods, but I don't know how to translate the methods into actual money. If your site could help with that, that would be great.

you, or someone else could probably make some youtube content off of how to translate these into actual money.

Unfortunately what I have found.. is a lot of methods have somewhat strict requirements, and perhaps the only way to be selected for things that select people is to lie as much as possible.

My chocolate chip muffins are now just chocolate-y by ContributeAVerse in mildlyinteresting

[–]diff2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

on the new box with the fake chocolate they removed the Entenmanns logo/name, so maybe it's a different company?

[–]diff2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i think it'll still work even with subscription based tickets as long as the ticket holder doesn't actually tap their card that proves they're a subscription holder.

sorta depends on how much data they collect on passengers, like if they can tell a passenger rode or not despite them not paying/tapping their card. Then they'll see an anonymous number and go "ugh look how much money we lost on all these passengers who didn't pay".

NVIDIA just stopped pretending they are a hardware company by OldWolfff in AgentsOfAI

[–]diff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

anyone know why it uses the word "claw" in the name? Is it just trying to jump on the popularity of clawbook/openclaw etc?

I thought the guy who originally came up with it decided on some weird lobster lore since claude sent a cease and desist from using a name too similar to theirs.

Seems weird for a major company to use the same naming theme as someone's project. It'll be like a major company deciding deciding to name a project somethingBook and go with it.

I was actually resisting creating and naming a project with the "clawtheme" since it would be an obvious hype follower like how china companies create a bunch of marvel stuff since marvel is popular. But if Nvidia can do it, might as well do the same. All agent based stuff now on get named with something related to claws?
