I'm still hoping for good customer support AI. If I'm going to be connected to someone who barely speaks English and is required to follow a prewritten script, or worse plays prerecorded messages to fake being fluent, I might as well talk to an AI, especially if it means shorter hold times.

AI is a bad replacement for good customer service, but it could be an improvement over bad customer service.

Ai search is cool though

Funny seeing this around now.

Was looking into trying to find an AI to make stories from images, since I have to deal with the unfortunate reality that for a fandom I like, just about all the fanfic is unbelievably badly written to the point that an AI does a better job making interesting stories. I know they exist, just a question of where the ones that work are.

Simple ask you'd think wanting to find shit that generates stories from images. Search engines hardly helped, so it was like, fine, I'll ask an AI about AI. Surely it'll help me find the tool I need, right?

Somehow the results it gave me were worse than the search engine itself.

There is one good use for AI and we have found it on a forum I frequent.

That use is putting Godzilla in ridiculous situations.

I got my first AI telemarketer, and that sucked.

I realized pretty quickly that it wasn't a real person, but my elderly neighbor didn't. She told me how bad she felt just hanging up on this "person," but she just couldn't get them off the line. (I told her I had the same experience, and I'll warn her about AI Robots at a different time- I didn't want to make her feel foolish.)

Regular chatgpt is perfectly serviceable and fine. It does what I need. And I've used Bings AI to make cassette tape art and memes of coworkers.

AI is what we make it. That being said, there has not been a proper filtering of input for AIs learning pool. Shotgun approach may be easiest and fastest but is not bestest

Hey, deep fakes are awesome. They are a necessary step in the evolution of the technology that leads to holodecks.

I want holodecks, I bet you want holodecks, practically everyone wants holodecks, so we have to go through this stage of the tech to get there.

You want a device that's only available on Star Fleet ships as part of the crew and probably limited only to a subset of higher ranking members of the crew? A major difference between the holodeck and deep fakes is that what happens in the holodeck stays in the holodeck - unless it gets out, in which case it usually becomes an illustration of why it should have been kept in.

You can just rent a program at quarks?

Call me a luddite, but I don't think going through a phase where bad actors have the power to set every democracy back by centuries through misinformation and other bad actors have an infinite kiddy porn machine is worth it for what ultimately amounts to a luxury VR Video game that, if even possible to exist (the holodeck isn't a "technology", it is a narrative device), would be something that realistically only the ultra-rich would be able to use (because let's face it, Star Trek's post-capitalist utopia isn't happening)

That plant is totally cool to eat. It doesn't matter that it is a mushroom.
