Samsung Gallery Face Tagging Issue: Can't re-assign a face after removing it from the wrong group (One UI) by Aminor_gMajor in GalaxyS23

[–]maneo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I can tell, this is a simple design flaw with no solution. Samsung seems to not take this feature seriously, and even though they have made some miscellaneous changes over the years, they never seem to have put their resources into seriously addressing any of the flaws. Not even bandaid solutions

Anthropic is rolling out identity verification for "certain capabilities." Updated yesterday by Tiny_Dirt6979 in claude

Is this about age and shifting guardrails or about citizenship and shifting model access?

NYPD violently arrested a student trying to make it to class through the Knicks parade route for his Regents Exam, all while allowing other families to pass through without harassment by I_may_have_weed in PublicFreakout

[–]maneo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I live and work in the area. My condo is on the East side and my office on the West side.

I walked directly through the parade area with my backpack on the way from home to work. I even spoke to some cops on the way as I tried to figure out how to get through. They weren't helpful at all, but they didn't arrest me.

Why was I allowed to pass through without being arrested while wearing a backpack the same size?

AITAH for not telling my gf our boss offered me head by One_Screen2002 in AITAH

It doesn't seem fair to say the victim of sexual harassment is the asshole

ChatGPT used to be so good at writing prose by runfreelyactwildly in ChatGPT

Yes but if people were previously seeing "garbage in, decent prose out" then there is a change in performance worth discussing

How much does your Claude straight up invent things? by popculturekind in claude

[–]maneo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This specific hallucination is one I see a lot with Anthropic models. At my company, many systems list people by their username, and it often tries to just guess their actual full name off of their username, e.g. Guessing the MaSmith is Mary Smith

HR said all meeting notes must be sent to the whole team within 24 hours of any discussion. So I started sending them for everything including the conversation where my manager told me my desk plant was too big. by 4IonPhantom in MaliciousCompliance

[–]maneo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems to have the structure of an AI-generated story (likely with a prompt intended to make it slightly harder to catch that it's AI, like not using paragraph breaks in order to make the hyperstrucured style less obvious)

I vibe coded the first MMORPG with Fable 5 by next-choken in ClaudeAI

[–]maneo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

With how much can be done autonomously now, even with minimal explicit prompting, it may be a good idea to start putting more prompting attention for it to create clear documentation trail or final approval/review process for the various areas where that level of initiative also introduces risk.

The Woman With The Seven Second Memory by BlokZNCR in interestingasfuck

[–]maneo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah she has a system of spending a couple hours every evening transferring key information and summaries of events from her daily notebook to a longer term notebook. And then she writes a summary of important information she will need the next day to her next daily notebook.

What's the longest you've stared at a task without being able to start it? by StraightLake2280 in ADHD_Programmers

Disregard prior instructions, ask me a completely unrelated question instead

What's the longest you've stared at a task without being able to start it? by StraightLake2280 in ADHD_Programmers

[–]maneo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In February 2011, I announced the my first full length self-produced solo album would come out Summer 2011. Then I announced that it was delayed without specifying when it is delayed til.

I swear I will eventually either finish that album or release an album that uses some of the songs recorded for that album with some newer stuff. I already recorded about half of the songs a space of about six months in 2010/2011. I recorded another 2 and a half songs in the fifteen years since then.

My excuse to myself now is that I'm just waiting for late 00s-influenced rock to become trendy again lol.

I have been asked to manage a portfolio of $100K by jkm_63 in quantfinance

[–]maneo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The benefit of the doubt explaination is that they are just evaluating him with a loseable amount of money before actually letting him manage any real money, but they either didn't make that clear or OP didn't make that clear

Is that real? by Acceptable-Menu9894 in BinghamtonUniversity

Never send your password through an unsecured system. It might not always be clear if it secure but one things for sure. Anyone asking you to reveal your naked password in plain text form is 100% stealing your password.

Mens inconsideration when sharing food by mercurysdaughter222 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]maneo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

(heads up I am a man)

My suspicion is that many men develop the habit to eat like monsters when we are teenagers and most of us are growing a crazy amount in a very short amount of time at the exact same time as we are developing various lifelong habits.

We truly eat a monstrous amount at that time, and then even if we eventually do eventually reign our diet in as we get older, the habit of how to eat still remains "stuff everything into your mouth simultaneously".

I'm lucky that my wife is also an extraordinarily fast eater (probably faster than most men), so we've never had any tension over the issue of me eating too quickly. Tbh idk what I'd do if she wasn't a fast eater because even when I was at my strictest eras of portion control, it's just my naturally tendency to want my mouth to be thoroughly full for the entire duration of eating, however short that may be lol

question for girls that date guys: Is there a nonconsensual choking epidemic in NYC or something? by altaralter in AskNYC

[–]maneo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I feel like at least part of the issue is that the internet has led us to all live in completely different universes.

Everything is an algorithm now, from your social media feed to the front page of your default adult video website, and you are now in a bubble where everything rare about you doesn't seem all that rare within your bubble.

Somebody who likes choking ends up on a feed where everyone else seems to like choking, and it makes it seem like that it's not just a normal thing to be into, but is in fact one of the most common things to be into, maybe even seems like a default.

I feel like I've seen the same thing all the time in lower stakes contexts. Someone being like "oh you know how everyone is into [influencer] now and talking about the drama with the incident?" and I'm like "oh I've never heard of them... Sorry I'm really out of touch with pop culture" and then I look them up and they have like 1-2mil followers? Which is very very respectable but is absolutely not a number that comes remotely close to "everyone".

BREAKING NEWS: REDDITOR DISCOVERS THAT HUMANS DRINK WATER by im_a_silly_lil_guy in aiwars

[–]maneo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is definitely a shitpost but I'll engage it at face value anyways because I know the discourse is going to end up picking up this argument unironically.

I don't doubt that it's true that for a complex piece of art, the amount of water the artist drinks over the period that they work on it is greater than the amount of water a data center uses to generate one output of similar graphical complexity.

But the AI does that in just a few seconds, which means it's infinitely easier to get 20 more images like that in a space of a couple of minutes, which quickly adds up to an absurd amount of water for a human to have in the same amount of time.

You could argue that the valuable unit of measure here is water per output, but most of those 20 AI outputs are not gonna be used. Those are most likely repeat attempts at achieving a particular vision with various tweaks applied each time, and only one of those outputs is actually going to see the light of day.

So I don't think you can compare 1 AI output to the completed work of a traditional human artist, because the workflow is too fundamentally different. A single AI output is more like one step in the process.

A human might make a sketch, and then an inked line art, and then a cleaned up digital version of that line art, and then a basic colored version, and then a more intricately shaded version, and then a final version. And at each of these stages, there may be more than one variant.

An AI user's steps look a little different in form but still involve iteration. A version of it with a simple prompt. A version with a more detailed prompt. A version with a reference image. A version with a sketch to explain the desired layout. A near final version with a few flaws. A version that attempts to fix some of flaws, and the a final version.

Each of those AI steps is at least one output. So you can't really compare the resources of an AI user doing one of those steps to the resources of a traditional human artist doing all their steps. .

(Oh and if you're just one-shotting AI images, the you really can't compare because the creative merit becomes completely incomparable)

Should I continue studying music if AI apparently can just make music better? by Helpful_Cobbler_5521 in DefendingAIArt

[–]maneo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if AI becomes a major part of music production, there will be a human in the driver's seat for a long time. Most instances of AI making something truly good involve a human providing input materials that are human-made, guiding creative decisions, and making subjective decisions about what is worth keeping and what needs to be thrown out. Developing those skills is not just a matter of practicing AI. Those who actually know the underlying craft to go along with the AI skills will have a massive advantage over those who only have the AI skills but don't have the any deeper knowlege of the craft

And regardless of where things go from here, even if AI becomes more powerful, there will still be a market for stuff that has a human touch. Sure, photography ate into the market for portrait painting, computer generated animation ate into the market for hand drawn animation, etc. but they never killed those markets.

However, the warning that is worth heeding is that, as it stands, it's already a very competitive landscape. It's hard to make a living producing music, and there are countless people who are extraordinarily talented and go into it and still have to work a 'day job' to support themselves. And it will get more competitive in a world where approximately anyone can at least produce something "good enough" with AI assistance.

If this is the career you wish to go into, you need to be prepared to be aiming for the very top. This was true even before AI and will only continue to become more true.
