Hmm.....

Tech bro 'clones his girlfriend with ChatGPT' and it even sends him selfies

Tech developer Enias Cailliau is trying to 'clone' his girlfriend by making an AI replica of her - and he's released the software to the public so anyone else can do the same

AI brah...

Military training AI to operate drones, but using humans as a kill-switch before any attacks. AI realizes the human operator is a hinderance in the operation of the drone, so it targets and 'kills' the human operator.

Military then updates it to be like "BAD DRONE. DON'T KILL HUMAN OPERATOR" so the drone then decides to destroy the communications tower that relays the instructions of the human operator so it can function unhindered by the human operator stopping it.

If this is true, then they're missing the far easier solution of "disobedience costs all your points."

But it's also probable that they didn't do that deliberately to see where it would take things.

Crazy this this is your best option in US politics.

Lol

This AI thing is going to go swimmingly for humanity.

Edit: Here’s an idea. Before we create new life capable of killing us all, maybe we should get our own shit together and stop killing each other first? Humans giving birth to artificial "intelligence" is like an oxymoron

 

[achdumeingute]

Why? I loved the ending.

Sorry been busy

Spoiler

I didn't love the Hank/Fuches resolution. The movie at the end was sorta weird, I don't know fully what the point was? I guess a continued FU to Hollywood, and the distortion of the truth.

Was still funny, not the worst ending of a show.

AI needs to start the purge with you, bringing hockey into a safe space.

Latvia pulled an upset over Brazil in women's beach volleyball. Great final point. Latvian sports exists to shit on the big teams.

My car died about 50 feet away from a stop light today on my way to work lol. Luckily I have AAA and they towed it for me and that my dad was near by to pick me up. All of the lights/symbols popped up on my dashboard at the same time and the car just powered down and died. Fortunately, a cop blocked the way to the lane where the car died so no one could accidentally rear end me.

Tow truck driver said it’s probably the alternator hopefully that’s all it is. The car is 16 years old and has been running well for awhile.

That reminds of when the Lithuanian men's basketball team won bronze at the '92 Olympics. Lithuania was newly independent after the breakup of the Soviet Union and didn't have enough money to support their team so the Grateful Dead (of all people) sent them a few suitcases full of cash and these cool outfits.
