I just asked a local one I use and it said “Elias Thorne is not a single famous real person, it’s a name that repeatedly shows up in AI‑generated fiction and content”

I’m pretty sure I do that with EVERY piece of hardware I get. I don’t trust that shenanigans haven’t been done. Hell most times I update the BIOS too if I can.

If it’s software, you could just reinstall it.

Hardware would be a different story. But I’m not sure how that’s different than today. My friend has a RAV4 that he’s added several hardware hacks to. For example, there is a module you can add that will give you actual numbers for each tire’s pressure instead of the usual warning light that a tire is low with no indication of which one. It even shows up as an extra screen on the normal interface between the gauges.

Good. Well unless they make Don Snoreleone compete. I’d even do the pay-per-view.

If you think this data isn’t already going to Russia without the middle man…

Yeah as long as they are all the same I guess it doesn’t matter.

Next time I go in for my physical I’m gonna ask where my other 21 physicians are.

I thought it looked like Nathan Fillion

Edit: I should read the comments before I post 🤪

“Stock Car” is in the acronym meaning the cars are supposed to be stock or meaning a car that was close to a regular production vehicle. They are not even close anymore. These things are custom built specialized vehicles. What they should create is NAEVAR. I’d probably watch that.

After looking it up there is something like this already.

The way I look at it is AI is a time saving tool if you know what you’re doing. Otherwise it’s like playing IT Russian roulette. There are many times I could write the code or procedure I need manually but using AI has saved me countless hours. I’m not doing anything mission critical and I know how to read the code/scripts/configs it’s spitting out. I would never in a million years just accept what it spits out as gospel. I basically treat the output like a junior developer created it and I’m doing the code review. I’d also like to add in running all this on local models since I have the hardware to do that. And 95% of it is either for a lab or a proof of concept. I’ve also had it spit something out I didn’t understand and went and looked it up and learned something in the process. That’s always a nice surprise.

But you do bring up a very good point. It is VERY easy to lose control and understanding of what it’s spitting out. And you absolutely need people to understand what the code is doing, regardless of who or what wrote it. I’ve inherited projects when people leave that I have spent days if not months trying to understand.

There are many things I don’t like about AI… at least the kind run in giant data centers using up way too many resources like electricity and water. But under the right circumstances and used correctly, it can be a very powerful and useful tool.

Yeah I forgot about that part.

I hope I’m alive when this guy becomes president.

Amen.

He is neither good nor young.

It fells more like day 20k for me. Like this shit is never ending. Like I have spent 1/3 of my adult life with him as either president or worried he would be president.

I want someone who’s pissed off and willing to put their money where their mouth is. I don’t want games, strongly worded letters, pointless victories. I want actual action and holding people culpable if they break the law. I want to feel like they care for people without billions. That integrity is important. I want them to tell Israel to fuck off. I want them to worry about things like housing, food, student debt. I want them to want to reign in if not outright dismantle ICE, punish bad cops, dismantle Citizens United. I want them to support age/term limits for all politicians including SCOTUS.

I doubt I’m alone in this.

So Minority Report, but with A.I. Great… what could go wrong with that.

Oh sorry. Reading comprehension is not my strong point… 😀 Carry on.

Which is why I said neither of these should be acceptable.
