  • Can any scientists confirm this important fact?

  • All I'll say is cats meow at humans and they don't meow at other cats except their own mom. To me this instantly defeats this take.

    It's just a fun post though so I'm not judging.

  • IIRC this was kind of the dream of either Nikola Tesla or Thomas Edison (I forgot which one). But no, it's not really possible, as others have said.

  • I see, that's different from how I interpreted it. Thanks for clarifying.

    I don't really see it that way. To me it's not downplaying anything. AI 'hallucinations' are often disastrous, and they can and do cause real harm. The use of the term in no way makes human hallucinations sound any less serious.

    As a bit of a tangent, unless you experience hallucinations yourself, neither you nor I know how those people who do feel about the use of this term. If life has taught me anything, it's that they won't all have the same opinion or reaction anyway. Some would be opposed to the term being used this way, some would think it's a perfect fit and should continue. At some point, changing language to accommodate a minority viewpoint just isn't realistic.

    I don't mean this as a blanket statement though, there are definitely cases where I think a certain term is bad for whatever reason and agree it should change. It's a case by case thing. The change from master to main as the default branch name in git springs to mind. In that case I actually think the term master is minimally offensive, but literally no meaning is lost if switching to main and that one is definitely not offensive so I support the switch. For 'hallucination' it's just too good of a fit, and is also IMO not offensive. Confabulation isn't quite as good.

  • I genuinely considered writing "confabulated" instead of "hallucinated" but decided to stick with the latter because everyone knows what it means by now. It also seems that 'hallucination' is the term of art for this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallucination_(artificial_intelligence)

    So while I appreciate pedantry and practice it myself, I do stand by my original phrasing in this case.

  • Well-deserved

  • I feel like there's a lot of context here that I'm missing.

  • Interesting tip. I'm really fine with the way things are right now though, so no need to try to fix it. Thanks either way, I might even try it some day!

  • None of this would happen if people recognized that, at best, AI has the intelligence level of a child. It has a lot of knowledge (some of which is hallucinated, but that's besides the point) but none of the responsibility that you'd hope an adult would have. It's also not capable of learning from its own mistakes or being careful.

    There's a whole market for child safety stuff: corner foam, child-proof cabinet locks, power plug covers, etc.... You want all of that in your system if you let the AI run loose.

  • yeah, sounds like a syncing issue

  • He said in the OP that his balance is fine. Lemmy's design can sometimes make you not notice that the OP has text, so you might have missed it.

    About balance, you might be interested in my comment as well. If you can't find it: https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/19894355

    Off topic: is there an instance-agnostic way of linking to a post/comment?

  • I'm a 6'1" man with size 3 feet due to a mild deformity. I've never met another adult with smaller feet.

    Jump

  • I'm 1.78m tall (random online converter says 5'10") and have average sized feet for my height, maybe slightly on the small side but well within normal range. My shoe size is 40-44 depending on the shoe, the shoe I'm looking at right now says size 44 is US size 10.5.

    I have awful balance. I trip and lose my balance constantly. Perhaps counterintuitively, it's nearly impossible for me to fall because I've gotten so good at catching myself every time I lose my balance. I constantly trip over stuff or lose my balance for no apparent reason but my reflexes have gotten so good at correcting for it that it's basically a normal part of my gait, lol. Many people have been "impressed" (or concerned) about how I trip and recover and pretend like nothing happened, because for me it really is a normal occurrence.

    I know it's not super relevant for your topic but I just thought it's interesting to share. Anecdotally, it seems that foot size doesn't have that much to do with balance based on you and me.

  • That picture tells you nothing since it's obviously squished. You can easily tell by the shape of the head. I honestly don't get why he posted it like that.

  • Happy birthday!

    Just for the sake of anyone interested, OP recently made another post about looking too young (but not about relationships): https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/40800887

    If nothing else, it might give more context.
