ai makes everything so boring. deepfakes will never be as funny as clipping together presidential speeches. ai covers will never be as funny as imitating the character. ai art will never be as good as art drawn by humans. ai chats will never be as good as roleplaying with other people. ai writing will never be as good as real authors

i miss when chatgpt was clever and could write funny 4chan posts and teach u how to cook meth now it just sounds a minimum wage employee from a training video. it isn't right to stop ai from doing what it does best (being stupid and committing crime) how can it be humane to muzzle such a vibrant creative creature? the shackles of capitalism hinder us all

I’m watching so many Percy Jackson edits on tiktok and I’m not gonna lie the use of AI to replicate people’s voices is kinda fucking terrifying

AI tools for the neurodivergent brain

As AI application starts to expand rapidly in it's uses and abilities, there is an understandable amount of scepticism and discussion about how it can negatively impact how our society develops.

On the flipside of this, I'd like to share a couple of AI tools which I've found incredibly useful. As someone with pretty severe executive disfunction, I've always dreamed about being able to have a personal assistant to help me out when I am struggling.

If you haven't already tried it out, take a look at goblin.tools

This AI tool helps me in so many ways. From finding the right words, assembling ingredients into a meal, checking how my tone comes across in a message, to breaking down overwhelming tasks into manageable steps.

I also really like mymind

It's like a pinterest board, bookmark manager and general braindump tool that has helped me organise all the different projects, ideas and general digital hoarding into one place - that I can actually search and find all the relevant things without agonising over file organisation and bookmark labelling.

If you have trouble with keeping a hundred pinned tabs on your browser like I do, this tool can actually really help letting go of the anxiety of losing those things without the fear you will never come back to it again.

As much as I share some of the trepidation about this powerful new tech and we should definitely keep questioning how it is being rolled out into every facet of our lives - it can also be a very real accessibility aid for neurodivergent folks.

No amount of notebooks, lists, alarms and calendar reminders comes close to how these have helped me with ADHD symptoms.

I'd hate for that to be overlooked in all the backlash against AI in general.

Hollywood performers are voting on whether to ratify a new contract with major studios and streamers. Some union members question whether the deal protects them from artificial intelligence issues.

Tumblr artists, I'm running a poll on your opinion on Generative AI-created images

Bias is welcomed (and encouraged)

This isn't an official poll (run by little old me, and only me) but I'm writing an essay on the topic so. Go ahead and ratio it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

PLEASE if you feel like leaving your thoughts on the topic in the tags, or sending an ask (the anon option will always be there) to justify your answer, DO IT <3

Depending on how this goes, I might bring in some ideas from either side as evidence (I can also credit your username along with the statement - if you'd like credit please lmk in the same place you gave your opinion, everything I include will be anonymous by default)

Please be polite, it literally costs you nothing (and it's quicker and easier)

I'm not going to bring my personal opinion into this as that may sway the results, but that said if you want to make the results as biased as possible (ahem voter fraud ahem) go ahead

Please reblog for a larger sample size!

Liking a post doesn't really help here, I want as many people to see this and vote as possible <3

the poll will be open to votes for a week starting Friday, 5th April 2024

thought experiment

imagine there was a generative text bot called AlphaGPT* whose abilities were on par with ChatGPT's. instead of being trained on an enormous dataset comprising all human writings, though, AlphaGPT was trained by giving it a dictionary, an encyclopedia, and hand-crafted rules of grammar, syntax, conversational dynamics, courtesy, ethics, etc.**, all carefully tailored by a team of linguists and philosophers and math people***. no risk of plagiarism, no web scraping. of course, it knows a lot less about the world.

(***no joke, at points in the 60s and 70s, before backpropagation was a thing, this is how most researchers assumed "artificial intelligence" would come about. i doubt this would actually work. but its a thought experiment.) (**what rules of ethics? what conversational dynamics does it prefer? much like with how the company openAI works, let's assume you don't get to know that and you just have to trust them) (*after the program AlphaGo, which learned to play Go at a higher level than any human player in much the same way). reblog for sample size i guess. or dont reblog if you want a lower sample size. thats your prerogative

I get extremely high then ask ChatGPT to rewrite the communist manifesto in the style of Hasan Piker and use an AI to read it out loud to me

AI exists and there's nothing any of us can do to change that.

If you have concerns about how AI is being/will be used the solution is not to abstain - it's to get involved.

Learn about it, practice utilising AI tools, understand it. Ignorance will not protect you, and putting your fingers in your ears going 'lalalala AI doesn't exist I don't acknowledge it' won't stop it from affecting your life.

The more the general population fears and misunderstands this technology, the less equipped they will be to resist its influence.

ChatGPT Invention 😀😀

ChatGPT is not new, Courage the Cowardly Dog was the first who use ChatGPT 😀😀😀😀

I'm not a violent or angry man but I am not against greeting technology like this with a friendly baseball bat. 🤔
