Plebs?

I've been working on and with AI since 2012 lol.

And yeah, "practically magic" has told me enough. When we joke about people, the m-word is the always used when putting on a "normie" persona. I'm having an actual "found one in the wild" moment, it's great.

wait you’ve been working on ai since 2012? sorry had no idea, link me some of your research papers on how you’ve improved ai! i’m interested :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Sure. I even currently work at a university and am on the committee for AI so I can get a few of the others to share theirs on Monday too.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

nah i don’t want theirs, i want yours, you’re the one who thinks ai is clippy, it would make me laugh to see the guy doing research papers on improving ai thinks it’s a garbage tier digital assistant that you yourself don’t even use and in fact would drop despite hundreds of millions of people using it daily🙂

i’m aware of how ai works at a fundamental level, they even have a visual on it:

same with evs, solar, solar batteries, smartphones, the new ai robots, we live in the most insane age

just saw this yesterday

How AI Is Helping Us Clean the Ocean https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yOJFFQQx-zY

this is what you remind me of

Louis CK Everything is amazing & Nobody is happy https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PdFB7q89_3U

anyway looking forward to qwen3, let me know about those research papers on clippy, although i should probably ask why you’re wasting your time

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Confirmed. New to the concept of AI.

A link to an LLM back end that's not even in code.

And a link to something AI has been used for for years, just as I mentioned in my OC, but you've been hyperfixated on Clippy, so unsurprisingly things have whooshed past you. A traveller shone light on your magic and you don't want to accept it's not magic.

Also, I assume you have subscriptions or single pay options for papers, or at least access to a university that can get them for you at the normal fees?

Since you Google things and share them with me like they're of any value, you can use Google to learn more about that too.

Yes because as I said in my original post:

https://aussie.zone/comment/15963073

The comparison is dumb and you've done nothing to refute that except say that you've got a lot of experience with AI and it's been around for a few years now 👍

A traveller shone light on your magic and you don’t want to accept it’s not magic.

Shone light on your magic? You've done nothing of the sort. AI is incredible! The generation of images, real time voice translation, we're getting close to real time voice conversations with computers, the first time I showed people they were mind blown. Mistral and Qwen have been incredible for me, I'm no longer going through 10 pages of searches to try and find answers to questions I have.

I feel like we've been circling the drain for a while, your papers won't prove much except that for some reason you're working on a dead end product that's about to shut down for over 10 years? no idea why you'd do this but sure, in your mind AI is a bunch of garbage, in my mind it's amazing. I guess we'll just have to beg to differ.
