- Comment on Not likely to be AI-generated or Deepfake 2 weeks ago:
honestly, its pretty good, and it still works if I use a lower resolution screenshot without metadata (I haven’t tried adding noise, or overlaying something else but those might break it). This is pixelwave, not midjourney though.

quick test, with that prompt and flux schnell gguf 4 bit again:
- pentagon: 1
- hexagon: 9
- heptagon: 2
- octagon: 7
- decagon: 1
it seems a lot stupider than pro lol
- Comment on Square! 1 month ago:
I thought this couldn’t be true, so using one of the newer models (4bit flux) I told it to make a 5 sided star, and then put lines around the outside
lol this is very weird, did they forbid it from looking at pentagons in the training data or something? it can’t do The Pentagon either, it gives it 8-12 sides instead

I don’t think standing by and letting people get scammed is the right move either
- Comment on Breast Cancer 3 months ago:
I’ve been looking at the paper, some things about it:
- the paper and article are from 2021
- the model needs to be able to use optional data from age, family history, etc, but not be reliant on it
- it needs to combine information from multiple views
- it predicts risk for each year in the next 5 years
- it has to produce consistent results with different sensors and diverse patients
- its not the first model to do this, and it is more accurate than previous methods

- Comment on Why is there no sound? 5 months ago:
IDK, for me it would just be another thing to worry about, adding extra weight and cost with almost no benefit.

Rotated, not flipped.
- Comment on Every base is base 10 5 months ago:
The current standard seems to be an upside down 2 and 3
- Comment on Every base is base 10 5 months ago:
In every base, a 1 in the second spot corresponds to the name of the base.

Zeppelins are just expensive and slow.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2077 director thanks fans as the game hits a 95% positive review rating on Steam 6 months ago:
Yeah, I think games just take longer to develop nowadays than anyone is prepared for, especially the managers. Both companies and gamers have yet to realize that there is only so much you can accomplish in a certain span of time.
- Comment on Why you shouldn't believe the AI extinction lie 6 months ago:
Currently any AI models that have the ability to make complex decisions are trained to recreate patterns from their training data. At its current state, you’d have to be pretty exceptionally stupid to make an AI that wants to kill you, and give it that ability at the same time. Of course - who knows what’s going on at all of these private corporations and military contractors, but I think regular war, fascism, and nuclear weapons are by orders of magnitude the bigger threat.
- Comment on Why do cameras call it "Macro Lens" if it zooms in and is used to capture tiny objects? Shouldn't it be "Micro Lens"? 6 months ago:
Depends, I think. In the same order of magnitude definitely.
- Comment on space 7 months ago:
Time machines don’t exist and (as far as we know) cannot exist. Therefore, we can say they work however we want. If you can travel back in time, surely you can do that while remaining close to an arbitrary point of reference.
- Comment on acceptable screws 7 months ago:
I haven’t had any completely fail yet, but I’ve seen some come worryingly close. I don’t really have all that much experience, but from what I’ve seen it just doesn’t seem like the most reliable design.
- Comment on acceptable screws 7 months ago:
The problem is, when working with electronics, you can have a great screwdriver but it won’t help if the screws in the device are very cheap (and probably partially stripped already from someone opening it previously).
- Comment on Liking an OS isn't a personality trait ❌ 8 months ago:
I think it’s mostly because the people who use linux are the people who are interested in FOSS software, which lemmy also is.
- Comment on Liking an OS isn't a personality trait ❌ 8 months ago:
I can run a small LLM on my 3060, but most of those models were originally trained on a cluster of a100s (maybe as few as 10, so more like one largish server than one datacenter)
Bitnet came out recently and is looking like it will lower these requirements significantly (essentially training a model using ternary numbers instead of floats to reduce requirements, which turns out to not lower the quality that significantly)
- Comment on Liking an OS isn't a personality trait ❌ 8 months ago:
I would say that around half of AI development is free and open source.
- Comment on Public trust 8 months ago:
The funny think is that NASA contracts the same companies as the military anyways (in the modern day, at least)
NASA Prime Contractors Aerojet Rocketdyne, Boeing, Jacobs, Lockheed Martin, and Northrop Grumman currently have over 3,800 suppliers contributing to Orion, the SLS rocket, and the lunar spaceport at Kennedy.

I would interpret ‘the computer forgot my password’ as someone accidentally getting logged out of their password manager

He got most of paypal by default early on as his product (the original X) merged with theirs, and then was kicked out (but retained a lot of stock) after doing a bad job at management.

- Comment on Please check you kids' Halloween candy, everyone 1 year ago:
I think a lot of the downvotes are from people misinterpreting your comment as saying that banning books is good.
The joke is making fun of conservatives banning books and paranoia around blades and poison hidden in Halloween candy.

UTF-8 and ASCII are normally already 1 character per byte. With great file compression, you could probably reach 2 characters per byte, or one every 4 bits. One character every bit is probably impossible. Maybe with some sort of AI file compression, using an AI’s knowledge of the English language to predict the message.

- Comment on Immune to marketing 1 year ago:
I’ve seen too many scam ads and generally bad products to buy anything that’s being advertised. If they’re advertising, there’s probably a reason why they didn’t have enough users already.
- Comment on Godot Engine hits over 50K euros per month in funding 1 year ago:
They massively changed the UI in 2019, in version 2.8. Hasn’t changed much since then though.
If you remember Blender having a bad-looking light grey UI and no support for multiple workspaces, that’s the old version.
- Comment on 3D printed Portal coasters 1 year ago:
There is also a technique where you manually swap out the filament at a certain layer height. Based on the shared STL files I think that’s the case here.
