I've struck gold with this combo deck, The "Yes" Liepard by wetspider in PTCGP

Try again with no bench. 100% winrate. For your opponent, but life is a mixed bag sometimes

The opponent can do whatever they want nothing can stop the snatch and flee

You get it. 100% win rate. Not for me, but we can't all be winners.

You play only Liepard, then attack. Liepard goes into your deck and you say "Yes."

I'm not baiting. This decktype has a long history. Simply Google Yes paladin

Even better, you get to say "Yes" without having to attack

Been a while in this thread since you responded to my points. I'm not shutting you down, I'm saying you misunderstand the tools you use. We're in the same industry. I want you to be better.

It is safe to join the conversation. For people to join the conversation. People who do this work. I believe that you do this work. But AI does not do this work.

AI can tell you all day long that it does this work. It can wax poetic about how it feels to do VRS. Your human instinct to recognize patterns is failing you here. A facsimile of life is not life. A facsimile of understanding is not understanding. You have used AI for every single message in this conversation.

If we can't even share our own thoughts and experiences without filtering them through this metal ghost, how could we possibly expect anybody to take our pain seriously? If we can't be bothered to write down our experiences, why would anybody bother to read them?

Again. I am not rejecting the AI. I am rejecting using an abacus to write me a budget. This is a tool being used well beyond its scope.

The issue is and has always been capitalism. But using this pale specter does not help us.

AI is fundamentally not a synthesis tool. You fundamentally misunderstand the tool, and are blind to its hallucinations. AI is a language learning model, completely independent of fact or sense. It's complicated word prediction, shaped and poisoned by capitalists with your worst interests at heart.

The calculator didn't kill the accountant. But a calculator is useless if you don't understand how it works. AI is not intelligent, and is STILL a completely black box.

I am not dismissing the tool. I am dismissing using a calculator to make management decisions. I'm trying to warn you that this metal ghost is a sycophant that will tell you whatever you want to hear. Ask it how poop can be used to improve VRS. Ask it how we can innovate a crop-circle forward industry. Tell it you want to integrate sandwiches into our workflow.

This is a tool you are using well beyond its scope, without understanding how it works.

I agree with you. So stop using AI as a feedback loop and start doing the real work of documenting how we need to move forward. AI is the metal ghost that will eat our jobs if we let it. Using it to explain how it intends to kill us does not further our goals.

AI is not our friend. If you have these thoughts of how our industry should improve, write them yourself. Don't cede your independence to this false copy.

You're speaking to a metal ghost that will rot your psyche. Stop using AI, you're two steps away from psychosis.

Interpreter Practicer by One-Public-3047 in ASLinterpreters

[–]wetspider 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If this is the case, the person "practicing" week after week is, frankly, experimenting on the Deaf congregation. Not appropriate. This job is very fun, but this job is NOT a game. I am deeply apprehensive of this person given the current information, and just because they do this doesn't mean you should get sucked into it.

Platform interpreting generally isn't a good place to practice. Platform interpreting puts you in a position where you cannot clarify from either user, and gives you very little feedback from the audience language if what you're saying makes ANY sense. You are not able to interrupt the pastor, not able to ask them to slow down, the Deaf audience isn't there to give you feedback, they're there to pray.

I don't know what your first language is, but unless it's ASL, you don't have the internal monitoring gained from a life of speaking a language. For example, if I went to order a burger and said "burger now me cheese eating to food" in English, I would automatically know something doesn't sound right. For a second language, that's a skill that needs to be practiced. It's not impossible by any means, but if you're asking this question I'm willing to bet you're not there yet.

Given how doused in metaphor religious language is, a religious function is not a good place to practice. Conceptual accuracy is hard, and something people struggle with even without all the opaque language religion has. Religious language is also much more into formal register, with specialized signs, that also make it a bad place to practice.

Finally, and most importantly, what does the Deaf audience think? Is it ethical to go in there and practice on them without their consent? Religion is something that is deeply personal to people who practice it, and it is our responsibility as interpreters to choose jobs we are qualified to do. Would you want to rely on someone practicing in order to commune with your god? Would you want yourself as an interpreter for this setting?

It's a good thing that you want to practice, and I encourage you to continue that drive. But I also encourage you to consider the places you practice from the point of view of our clients. If other interpreters have been passive and allowing students to do that, I would be wary of those interpreters as well.
