This is a guess but I feel like it was around the time that most coding was done for things that weren't explicitly "programs", like web design CSS/Java and smartphone "apps".

Don't worry I didn't interpret it that way. I remember having the same jarring experience with the Blu Rays.

Important to remember that allowing women to be sexy and own their own bodies and their own sexiness and wear miniskirts was still a sign of feminist liberation in the 1960s.

Reddit is one website with hundreds of millions of users. Lemmy is software that powers multiple tiny platforms.

I hate that something so clever and cool is for a cryptocurrency advertisement

They must be doing some voodoo since Tidal doesn't let you use the same account for multiple concurrent streams.

it would be really hard to remove anything "from Lemmy" since "Lemmy" is just software and doesn't host any content.

AI doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be more profitable than with human labor.

What's going on here? Is it just pulling from someone's Tidal account?

😂 I'm with you 100%. After I left my previous comment I had almost the exact same thought process. Why aren't replicators producing more slop?? It doesn't know what chicken soup tastes like. Chicken soup might be molecularly-speaking very similar to chicken shit soup.

 

It sounded like a stretch to me at first, but if you consider that the very concept of intelligence as something quantifiable and measurable (like IQ) implies a linear scale where some (guess which ones) people are simply better.

The funding behind AI comes out of a belief that it can be a tool to control and influence the population. It makes sense that it's origins would be in something similar.
