I don't think artificial intelligence is all it's cracked up to be. I had a pop up advert for a product to alleviate all foot pain. It's years since I had feet.

71, bald since I was about 23, I've just a page suggestion from FB - Mickey's Hair Design.

Well I know I've no need for Ann Summers collections, but I keep getting pop ups showing scantily dressed women.

Long may it continue

I dunno.

I keep getting penis enlargement spam.

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Maybe they have informers?

Not sure that's going to increase the sales of canned meat products 'more meat with this tin'

Love it when people use ebay's AI to generate item descriptions. Some of the best ones so far:

The unit quantity is one, making it a great addition to any DIY tools and workshop equipment collection.

The corded electric power source ensures consistent power supply, while the 240 V voltage makes it suitable for turning wood.

I was a bit surprised at a suggested Youtube video the other day, but I guess it made more sense when I realised I'd been searching for Reindeer pictures to make a wooden Reindeer for a Christmas Fayre. Now I just need to find a Moose....

To me it’s amazing what AI can do already. My final year dissertation was on developing a speech recognition systems which could recognise single words it had to learn for each user. Thirty years later and speech recognition is better than my own cognitive abilities! Goodness knows what AI will be able to do in another ten years, never mind 30!

There is a fear that before LLMs evolve better language generation, their training data (the internet basically) will come to be dominated by their own meaningless early attempts, and we'll all disappear up our own meanders...

The magic of modern speech processing is in subsuming most of the DSP and all of the acoustic and language modelling into a single multimodal model, and on solving the scale challenge by training predominantly on unlabelled text plus a little audio. A single model trained on a bunch of predominantly english text plus a bit of speech data can hear and speak multiple languages and replicate a person's voice from a 1 minute recording. I wouldn't advise anyone to use 'my voice is my password' any more...(edited because I got carried away!)

I sometimes think they know my thoughts even sooner then they appear in my mind ..
