Sex, power and money are obsessions to men who’s insecurities they wish to fix through these means. There’s typically a reason why the billionaire always looks like the guy with the micropenis.

If you want to live in the AI utopia of the 21st century, china sadly is the destination. Here in the us all we’ve got is israel’s surveillance feudal colony.

The problem often to me comes from wrongful abstraction of social markers by people educated in the life sciences. Most individuals coming from the STEM sector tend to align right due to the fundamentalist fatalist perception education in the sciences procurs. The issue is they lack the self-awareness to realize that they are not educated sufficiently on social topics.

I endorse the court’s decision, a clinic has no say over gender and this was obviously a political stance a medical practicionner was taking.Fuck that.

I wish everyone was as zen as you about politics nowadays, go in peace Dalai Gretsky.

Really cool to hear and my mistake, I am used to people pretending to be engineers far more often than being engineers, If I can ask, what s the denso for?

Also Bridgeports are dope, I loved to machine steel at the labs in school, but Im a bit younger haha, the bridgeports were 75yo, tried to tear my arms off because who needs machine security? and my profs would tell me to stick to them “because you ll be a sissy if you spend all your time on the rinky dink newer chinese mills”

I know it is but I do not want to call it an algorithm? I’m asking as someone who doesn t work in it but pretty close. As I see it, AI is a set of functions turned into tensor operations in a dimensional space (basically my university matrices class) and the parameters weights are adjusted based on collected data (human data as i understand in this case it could be reddit comment libraries or books or Meta data ).

That last bit is why I don’t confuse it with an algorithm since then it would be a heuristic. Algos are predictible, like running a graphic simulation that uses a physical and logic model, yeah id agree that s all a system of algorithms. Heuristic in terms of structure and method may look like algorithms but they are “rule of thumb” approximations for specific problems where we cannot build a math system (like an algo). At this point it is the human element and adaptation of the AI to you that would make it a heuristic.

Makes sense?

So we went from “i make robotics” to figuring out you re a CNC operator typing in G-code…? listen man, pure theoretical engineering and using mastercam or whatever MCAD/CAD software to cut up some chunk of 6061 aluminium or soft steel is not the same, and I say this as someone who has done both.

Computer vision and machine learning has little to do with robotics, but alright since you seem to work with know something about thermodynamics and are not a sys_admin like all the desk jockeys, i ll be nice and call you the E word.

But robotics itself is such a small niche that random people invoke because they see it in movies that I am skeptical to believe it as a systems and automation engineer, that s basically as close as 95% of engineer will ever get to robotics unless you re in China (mechatronics is not robotics btw) or work for Kuka/ABB…

Algorithms are discrete operations done in a sequence, they are typically blind to ideas or personal opinions and are used for data processing, filtering, or calculations. Facial recognition algorithms are typically what you would call a complex algorithm as it uses conditions based on what the camera captures to make decisions as to where the face of said person is, if it is a person, are they smiling? What are their physical traits? Do they have white, brown, or dark skin, to adjust the contrast level for a good photo.

Artificial intelligence models are not math driven. They are language models, trained through machine learning and operating on a transformer architecture. Not only do they not replicate the reasoning a human (they predict the probability of action based on statistics of choices of others) and are most definitely going to be used to influence choices and opinions, not in an educational manner but in coercive and controlling manner. And it will become very hard to understand what AI produced propaganda will become. Even scarier though to me, is that it will be even harder to understand the effects of AI use, since all political actions have a direct effects which are often easy to predict, but they also cause these “ripple effects” which are the more dangerous side of politics and these ripple effects caused by AI use in politics will be impossible to predict for me, you and the AIs due to their early stage.

Meanwhile I, systems engineer wonders why the IT dude called himself an “engineer”

How the hell are ontarians happy with their mob boss MP? Everytime I hear of the ford family at this point it’s like a new jersey shore episode.

Quotes to mean it’s what he s whispering to our ear.

“Do you believe in israel’s right to defend itself?”

What most people call “algorithms” are not algorithms, artificial intelligences have replaced math formulas to back the recommendations your phone makes to you. Welcome to techno-feudalism!

Just like the luddites.

The queen of another country is on our currency and our economy was really the economy of our scumbag neighbor. And to top it off we re a 30 million people population occupying the second largest piece of land on earth (that we got through a genocide). That does not sound like a country, rather a strategic nightmare.

Hong kong has no moral role to play as a british crown territory or pro west territory and it has nothing to do with “'merican freedom”… Serving yourself this US hegemonic propaganda is sick, first we threw ukraine in the fire to bring a nato base closer to russia on it’s soil and millions died as a result (because russia and ukraine signed treaties over this being an act of war, cbc doesn t talk about that tho). And now we’re playing the same game with china to hold onto hong kong and taiwan as Nato serving territories?

After what the UK did to china in the opium wars (and the century of shame) and breaking the territory apart, it has more than enough historical right to claim back taiwan and hong kong.

Did Ford legalize online gambling or something? Because I (quebec…) keep guetting ads for CasinodaysJeux (french version of casinoday, a shit gambling site) which does not accept money, but being redirected to casinoday.com.

Risk; Peter Thiel guetting hard because he’s been wanting to show us his antichrist outfit.
