Comment What about 3:2 (Score 1) 45
The default aspect ratio for all ILC cameras except micro four thirds is 3:2. Of course, I would never use IG anyway.

Absolutely agree. Furthermore, I see the "democratization" of art to low-effort stuff that anyone can make to be a bad thing. It's not art in my opinion: it's amusement, shallow entertainment, and strengthens the culture of shallowness that pervades advanced western civilization. It is the promotion of the fast-food version of art that just makes everything worse in my opinion.
I think it would be the perfect karma if programming jobs dried up considering they are the ones that invented this garbage.
Whoa have you even been to university? There are scholarships just for women, even job positions that are women-only. And women in STEM? The ones that do make it are definitely treated as special. Maybe such things are designed to bridge the gap and it makes sense, but it's not very encouraging to men either whether it's rational or not.
That if protests are strong enough, they can end certain things. If everyone now were extremely vociferous against AI, then we truly would have a better world.
But we're also responsible. Everyone using AI for their own benefit is responsible. I take a AI-free approach and don't use AI for that reason. If you use AI or play with it, then you are part of the problem.
The main thing this ignores is that in a healthy society, art is used not just for visual stimulation but also for communication between human beings. AI art may have the former, but it will never have the latter. If AI visual art becomes more appealing, it only shows the sick nature of modern society.
This is an example that shows that political violence in the modern-day does not have to be messy or chaotic. I think people en masse do have a general sense of "fair" and when one person REALLY crosses the line (Thompson), and that's why they are supporting Mangione.
Scientists don't get paid for the papers. Editors don't get paid. The public pays for most of the research. Regardless of the law, natural law dictates that it belongs to the public.
This means in the long term that stories that are deemed too offensive to the advertisers will be less likely to be published. This is capitalism at work. Perhaps negative stories about climate change are next?
I sincerely hope that OpenAI gets pushed into bankruptcy and all research on AI halts. I hate AI.
It's ugly, which is fitting I suppose. And I know language evolves. But I still hate this word.
Google killed the internet by creating an algorithm that caused everyone to game the system with SEO crap. I hope Google goes bankrupt.
You are right, and it's clear if you look at the bigger picture. Coding is obviously fun, and traditionally companies have offered money and the fun experience of coding in return for a useful product. That fun was part of the reason why software projects work decently well.
But there's no real reason for fun to be a prerequisite for a person to create good programs. If corporations can automate a sufficient critical mass of the task of programming away to machines, then it becomes more of a rote janitorial job. And that's the final purpose of AI: to reduce us to mental compute units in a vast network to do the last 5% of what AI cannot do in an advanced network whose only purpose is to further advanced technology.
AI can't do that yet, and much of programming is still fun. In fact, for many, AI is fun. It's quite amusing, I'll admit even though I hate AI. But the truth is, that fun is only to get us to adopt it, train it, and make it better. Once it gets good enough (and it IS good enough in some cases already) it will take that fun away because it will be necessary in daily life, and thus the fun that was needed to keep us advancing it is no longer necessary to keep it running.
In what I am saying, AI sounds like it has a will. It doesn't really, at least in the traditional sense, but it operates as though it does, just like any complex system with multiple feedback mechanisms and a basic evolutionary system of differential survival.
I started writing here in 2007 and just stopped. Now it's 17 years later. Wow, life as changed...
The reason computer chips are so small is computers don't eat much.
