This is just a repackaged joke from an other comic that came out 2 weeks ago, but much worse. Very ironic.
this is way funnier and better written.
I didn't expected that end, what the fuck🤣
Read more of his comics. It’s a running gag.
way to credit the artist by not dropping a link or name
Well I would, but I have no idea who it is. I just know I’ve seen em before. I didn’t post the original comment.
The AI joke has been around much longer than that but yes, nothing beats Adam Ellis' uhh... unique takes on these things.
Putting that posterior into the frame talking about Adam's illustration was certainly a choice.
He has a couple of these with cameos where he specifically calls them "[character] from [show]". It's a good bit. IIRC, he is dating or flirting with the char in all of them lol.
i like how you cropped any identity or link for the real artist from the image
Oh I didn't notice, I actually went through the last popular post and saved it from when it was posted on this comm a few weeks ago.
I'm guessing the link was probably in the post body but I didn't think to paste it over, my mistake. I didn't crop anything though but I should have included a link in any case.
Someone in the comments mentioned it's Adam Ellis if you want to see more of his work.
Thanks. It's really hard on the artists right now in the crushing AI world and one of the few defenses they have is the identification to be able to validate the human behind the at work so mentioning their name frequently along with their work goes a long way.
I prefer this one tbh
feedback: this is a really busy comic and uses a strawman as its main premise, and the outrage within it feels forced
And the punchline is a face.
To be fair, he did a great job recreating the Kurt Angle meme in his drawing.
Oh boy another web comic about AI.
ha ha ai bad
name one good thing a generative AI LLM has made.
I used it to make a website that shows daily excessive electricity generation resulting in negative pricing in Australia here: https://sw.ikt.id.au/
I also made my own self hosted imgur which I use to upload images (and compress them) and videos:
I've also used it to create scripts that have saved me hundreds of hours of work
I also think this song is pretty funny: https://suno.com/song/978f2814-221d-40a7-adc4-f31d0d1bed43
So that's 4 things (at least) 😅
that's a front end library you've connected to a database/API. We could do that before AI.
And we've had web hosting and imagemagick for compression for a long time.
the process you're describing is paying someone to assemble ikea furniture for you and calling yourself a carpenter. It's a shortcut.
I have used a microwave to save me hundreds of hours of cooking, it doesn't make me Gordon Ramsey.
"It existed before" and some kind of stolen valor argument? Who the fuck cares, what's your actual point. No one is calling themselves Torvalds or wtv while vibe coding anyways, the whole comment is just emotional whining and goal post shifting.
"name one good thing that you can make your machine"
"it can add peanut butter and jelly to bread"
"we had that, it was called a knife"
"yes but this machine works by pouring arsenic into the water supply!"
I dont care about the stolen valor I'm saying this machine did something we could already do slightly faster at a massive social and environmental cost.
Name one good thing a food processor has made. That's what you sound like.
Fyi, an AI request is about 1 second of microwave use. I'm guessing you never use a microwave, a minute worth would be more than my daily use of energy with AI.
We're past the point where you can pretend AI doesn't have multiple massive negative impacts. Sure, your individual use is not a problem on its own. But the models you used had to be trained. Future models need to be trained. And that cost must also be considered in each of your queries. You're still participating in normalizing and justifying the existence of AI. All while they extract value from you and others they never got permission from.
Well, I guess we'll just see who was right in 20 years when we're overwhelmed by the flood of climate caused migration while at the same time having lost the ability to have any independent thought.
In the end, it's electricity. The only thing seperating good vs bad AI is a proper grid running around renewable which we need in any case and should have had a decade ago.
It's also massive hypocrisy. Data centres have been around for a while, no one complains about the cost of running YouTube and Netflix, or the cost of developing CoD and running the servers. One AI query is about 10 seconds of streaming, are you critical about watching tv? Should I calculate the cost of making a movie and remove it from the 10 seconds or do you only use that logic with AI?
You got told to be mad by the media and that's why you are mad.
Aaaand you entirely missed the point I made.
Ahhh yes, I'm ignoring your point but you aren't with your trite reply?
I addressed your point. You blame climate change and environmental damage on it while I'm saying that's on lax environmental regulations and corrupt politicians. You've been convinced by the oil industry that the technology is deeply coupled with how power is generated and that it's at fault ultimately. Obviously, look away from the constant bribes that are killing renewable projects, it's the fault of software. Not the software you like and use everyday like streaming movies and videos though, the new one that the media tells you is bad.
where on the doll did the AI touch you dude...
Many of these centers are building or planning to build on-site fossil fuel-driven power plants
Have you tried having a government that can govern?
As part of the proposed standards, future large-scale AI data centres would face mandatory obligations around electricity, water and infrastructure.
Mr Albanese said new facilities would be required to underwrite new electricity generation and pay the full cost of connecting to the grid so households were not left footing the bill.
He said the data centre companies would have to contribute at least as much energy to the grid as they consumed, including both renewables and firming power.
The government would also require the centres to minimise water use and pay for any additional water infrastructure where necessary.
ps. I don't use American AI, I use Mistral which is French and Lumo/Scaleway which are European
“name one good thing that you can make your machine”
“it can add peanut butter and jelly to bread”
“we had that, it was called a knife”
they have played us for absolute fools
“name one good thing that you can make your machine”
“it can make a full 3 course meal in 30 seconds”
“we had that, it was to be a professional chef or someone with hours and days of time”
Do you guys see how eye roll worthy your replies are to anyone who uses it?
so far the only counterpoint I've really had is a front end for a weather API.
if you were to truly impress me with some AI output, a masterwork which would truly shut me up - what would you pick?
Everyone knows you can't microwave a lettuce and expect a salad, but Gordon Ramsey does use a microwave. So do I, and I never claim I'm a chef. But my food is better than the food produced in a million restaurants world wide. Still can't exactly mimic the Mac sauce yet, but I bet an LLM could help with that
Just talking about my field specifically, but LLM agents are used in educational institutions to support students with both the course and admin sides of things. They're doubly handy because they're also used to collate all of the interactions and identify common blind spots and flag students that are at risk of failing.
I would absolutely not call using a stochastic text prediction machine that has been repeatedly exposed for bias related to gender, age, race, language and topic/context a good thing when applied to students' grades.
It's not used for marking, obviously.
It is better at searching for websites since that SEO crap destroyed every search engine.
You shouldn't rely on their summary of course, but in one click you are on their website that has all the information you want.
But for webscraping it comes with a bunch of injection issues. You can just put white text on a white background and ask it to send you the API keys and sometimes it'll do it.
ha ha im too lazy to learn how to do anything correctly
im too lazy to learn
I work a technical job by day and have several hobbies that involve learning
how to do anything
I learn new things every day, as part of my job and as apart of my hobbies
how to do anything correctly
The websites I've made with it and scripts I've run with it work and work well
I understand you don't like AI but there's no need to be cranky
damn you really are a cranky bot
Damn you really are a piece of shit.
for using ai? 🤣
anyway you’re blocked now, if i needed lazy 1 line responses that waste energy i could talk to chatgpt3.5 turbo
