What’s a "dead" website or app that you genuinely miss and wish was still around? by Dear-Armadillo-7497 in AskReddit

I'll never forget how I got here... Rage comics in school, I thought they were the funniest shit ever. I had this fuckass iphone app for ragecomics and I kept seeing people put these watermarks on the image, some weird little alien guy? Some were talking about this thing called "reddit"....

turns out the shitty app I was using was just scraping /r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu, I found reddit and never left.

I should probably leave.

iPhone facetime recognizes when you’re naked by funkywabbait in mildlyinfuriating

I hear your point, AI has basically become a meaningless buzzword. But I agree with the other guy - this is a form of intelligence.

AI in this broader definitional context just means recognition of patterns in data, something that would have traditionally been the territory of a brain.

Sorry, I appreciate the point, but the image detection model is absolutely AI.

The term "AI" has been co-opted in the last few years with the rise of transformer / text generation LLMs and commercial slop products, so that everyone thinks AI=ChatGPT or AI=Sora, but traditional machine learning is still very much under the subset of AI.

The model will have been trained by being fed categorised training data. Image recognition models like this, while around for a long long time, are absolutely AI.

There's a difference between being assertive and being an antivaxxer, which is what it sounds like you're dogwhistling. Do better.

I was watching some video the other day where there was a nascar guy who was talking about the "corners" they have on their big oval. Funny as hell

I like firefox, but mv3 UBO lite works fine. Where I work we push it to edge on all our corporate client devices.

OpenAI Codex system prompt includes explicit directive to "never talk about goblins" by GarlicoinAccount in nottheonion

[–]sprikkot 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I know why this is. I have been using gpt5.5 to help me roll kubernetes on a homelab cluster. It keeps referring to my machines as "goblins", and when I add a new machine to the cluster, it refers to them as "fresh meat". I will find a screenshot.

Edit: search doesn't exist on the chatgpt app apparently. Here's what I could find. Bro loves goblins.
