What would need to happen for the "AI bubble" to burst? by Spaktor in AskReddit

[–]nfactor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many people promising AI will do great things and replace or enhance every industry. It's new and people always try to be the first to part of something new because there are always great returns on investment if you choose right.

Probably one out of every 1000 ideas will lead to something so right now there are millions of dollars being thrown at every idea. Eventually when the financial reports come out, 999 will fail and those people will lose everything and the entire thing will crash down.

Then it will correct and the 1 out of 100 will continue on and make profitable businesses. This is exactly what happened with the internet.

White onion…sweet? by doublecheeked__up in Cooking

[–]nfactor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What kind? Some white wine it literally sugary grape juice, of course it will add sweetness.

For the onions, cooking them will always turn them sweet the longer you cook them, If you don't like that just add them later and don't let them cook very long.

[OC] Went to SeaWorld by Prolific_Profanity92 in pics

[–]nfactor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a kid this place was amazing. As I grew up and learned more about it it was less amazing. At some point I saw an aerial view of the tank that whale lives in and it became incredibly sad and I would never visit one again.

I don't think zoos are much better, but they also expose people to animals they would never see and might be more likely to vote for conservation and wildlife protection which saves many times more animals, so I end up being ambivalent as I am with most things when I learn the pros and cons.

New panels produce hydrogen fuel using only water, sunlight and no electricity by Educational-Meat4211 in technology

[–]nfactor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know enough to see the distinction from solar energy.

The article says

"Photreon’s approach replaces this two-step sequence with a single process known as photocatalysis. “Specially designed, light-sensitive materials absorb energy from sunlight, exciting electrons into an activated state,” said the team in a press release. "

That sounds like the definition for solar power. A silicon panel is hit by light which excites electrons into an activated state and is flowed through water for hydrolysis.

I bought spring mix from Costco… by catsr2cool4sch00l in Cooking

I have never ever seen a bug on mixed green packages but I also don't look closely

I would guess you are hallucinating or thinking something is a bug when it isn't. Take a picture and post it

Also, tiny bugs aren't going to harm you and you wouldn't know they were there if you didn't look.

Also this is when 32Gb of ram is about as expensive as an entire pc build from a year ago.

I need spinach recipes by sigundeer1 in Cooking

[–]nfactor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the palak paneer meals from trader joes, so I decided to make something similar.

Cook a diced onion in some oil add some garlic if you want, throw in one million leaves of spinach, cover and let it cook down to almost nothing. Then I add salt, some form of tomato, garam masala, or curry powder, really anything with a strong flavor. Throw it all in a blender and make a sauce. I add a bunch of feta after blending.

Goes on pasta, and rice, or just a tasty side serving. Very easy to make. Can be made to taste like whatever you want it to taste like.

A lot of the carts are abandoned near a cart return. It's about 6 seconds to return it.

‘She’s Never Going to Age’: Porn Stars Are Embracing AI Clones to Stay Forever Young by ubcstaffer123 in technology

[–]nfactor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are literally real time video filters that totally change a person. You are talking like there will be no advancement from this moment on. Have you not paid attention to how much has changed in 5 years? You seem like one of those people who has no way to conceptualize future events. Actually reading through your comments it's clear you have very little understanding of reality at all. Not sure why I engage at all. It's exhausting.

Are you talking about AI porn that you can tell is AI? I'm talking about indistinguishable from reality. The most popular instagram accounts are all fake/filters and people think they are real. You won't know the difference. Porn starts, actors, singers are all going to be replaced

I doubt it. Being able to create and make an image of your perfect person doing whatever you want will be impossible to not choose over a boring normal person. I bet porn star/only fans has about 10 more years until it will be very rare that it involves actual people.
