Not enough people realize that the "Turing Test" as originally presented was "can a gay English man in 1945 tell the difference between a chatbot and a femme-coded woman" over a teletype connection.

(Turing was very gay and had a sex-segregated education and then work life: he basically didn't know women and his alienation is palpable. But today's techbros don't have any such excuse, and the emphasis on femme-coded AI is ... telling.)

I feel like most in-house software is tacitly released under the Hot Potato Licence.

Is anyone collecting examples of ? Because here is a particularly pernicious one.

This appeared in my YouTube suggestions as a song from Lana Del Rey's hotly anticipated Lasso album. But ut it's AI music, backed up with dozens of bot comments saying it's great.

It's not great. The voice, lyrics, melody and production are a horrible empty imitation of LDR as is the album 'photo'. It's a glimpse into how meaningless collective culture could become.

🇬🇧 UK peeps, if you see this bs AI notification on FB, I sent them,
"I object to the processing of my date under Article 21 of the UK GDPR"

I got an auto-accept message within 5 seconds. I don't know if there's a point to doing this, but it's at least short.

sigh

Can't wait to delete my account right after I figure out how to organise a party in a better way... THOUGHTS? 😁

I love how Mrs Flood is like “Hello, I’m another mysterious dangling plot thread… but I’m nothing to do with this week’s mystery so, erm, I’ll bugger off then! Bye!” 😁

With the impending doom of ICQ in June and the new crappy version of Teams coming in July, I would like to post this meme one final time

RIP to a real web tech.

I think this it for ICQ. I used to remember my ICQ by heart.

I love this photo from our yard. The tree yields a single pear. Every time. It’s wild.

The Google AI summary suggesting that people eat rocks is amusing, but it's not a great example of AI "hallucination". The text is a pretty straight and accurate summary of a satirical Onion article. This isn't a complex algorithm synthesizing bogus conclusions from good data (something that's definitely a real risk in AI systems). This is simply Google mis-categorizing non factual input as factual, something it could have (and has) done just as easily without "AI".

@PlasmaGryphon
I'm not saying this is good. I'm just saying this isn't a useful example of AI hallucination.

Google has long (and without help from AI) conflated "popular" (which the Onion certainly is) with "authoritative" (which the Onion certainly isn't).

I imagine there's a reasonable intersection between @emf visitors and owners?
If you have a Badger, you can put Iain's code on it to get listings for the main stages!
The Badger 2040W updates live (thanks @dannixon's API!). The earlier non-W edition uses the included static schedule (a tiny bit of that code from me).
