Doing the good the r/DataHoarder work out here.

Here is the model I keep seeing as the next step past ChatGPT.

I mean, arguably, a good enough AI would make the need to search websites a rare thing to do for most people. Obviously, combined with the web 2.0 model of people only going to a couple of main sites anyway.

Bing Outlook Office Cortona Github Copilot

The amount of things that Microsoft could further intergrate chatgpt into is pretty crazy tbh. It's a good bet I think for them, even if a massive amount of corporate infrastructure and our personal interactions being shaped by a black box corporate controlled AI is a nightmare I can't seem to see an end too.

it'll be interesting if something like petal.ml can help with this. The human reinforcement and getting gpu processing parts that is.

The web of requirements is to reduce the economic pain felt on workers during the transition and to take advantage of a new industry growth being in country instead of outsourced.

It's requirements like union made, made in the US, etc.

Lmao what?

I mean, I appreciate you thinking I made this, but this Reddit post is the first time I've seen it...

The printing press also wasn't made full and complete all at once either, but incrementally, which maybe what projects like this represent.

I think Matrix is better than Discord, at least FOSSDEM conference was a blast on there, including being able to break rooms in a really friendly manner. That said, I don't think this is trying to be a Discord alternative, so it feels kind of unrelated to me.

The civil rights movement wasn't passed down by oral tradition, either. Technology is an enabler for how societies can choose to function. Without the printing press, you NEEDED the lecture to spread information, which gave the lecturer power to choose what was learned.

This is counter to the idea of historical materialism to me, which is to say, it is the technology that informs what the political systems can look like.

Also, I fundamentally disagree on some front, it is only through personal action to reach out and try and form and join community can they exist. At least I see no reasonable way to legislate community into meaningful existence, nor efficiently empower people since most of our lives is not in the scope of the government.

Do you feel like society is heading in a direction in which we have more fulfilling community ties and are being empowered, or that there are well established ideas in the academic world in which we have clear paths of how we can begin to do so?

> Photography is not pointing and clicking, if I handed you my camera bag, you wouldn’t even know how to attach a lens to the camera body, and if you did figure that out, my camera is a pro rig, so unless you know what all those little numbers do, you likely won’t even be able to make a properly exposed photograph.

Do you know how to make generative art professionally? Or know what all the dials and inputs mean or do?

Typing a word is the same as pointing and clicking.

You are dismissing the work people do put in to get good generated art. It's the equivalent of equating what you do with a camera with what I do with my phone when I see my dog being cute.

Like I want AI generated art to be able to make masterpieces that take the ideas in my head and turn them to be as good as some of the awesome works I've seen so far, but I'm just winging the phrase and picking between maybe 18 images, so clearly not putting in the same effort as some of the people really making cool works.

I mean, I think photographers that really excel in their craft should absolutely take pride in their work. Even if a large part of the work was done in the engineering as well.

Point and click. Type a word. The skill comes from the tool selection, the choice of subject, framing, curation and post process.

Trust me, I've made very low quality works with both now and can confirm that they both have allowed me to have the level of quality far exceeding many artists, while also understandably being very shitty. Like, the pictures of my dog alone would cost a fortune to replicate with a painter.

It's just doing what photography did to older art forms.

Oh that's really cool

All of my CO-OP experiences have been better. Grocery store Co-op? Better prices and more options of things I actually wanted. Why? Because they ask and have a way for people to ask about getting certain things. Coffee store coop same thing. Electric Co-op, payment system and website was bad, complained about it, and they made changes.

It's crazy what a group can do when you don't have to keep sending things up a massive chain to make changes, and how much people care about their stores and their communities when given the chance.

yes. It's talked about in the article...

No labeling or testing also has it happen. The amount of cable I've cut because no one knew it was there is pretty absurd for how little I was doing any work related to it. It's normally a deadline as well, but you have to go around asking people to make sure you didn't ruin someone's service.
