I don't think it's AI. Its too coherent to be. Every place on the picture where AI would usually half ass it and make some sloppy solution that looks okayish from afar, is very distinct and coherent when you zoom in.
I thought that bringing up him being held at gun point by drunk child soldiers in Africa and forced to speak a language you hate was pretty obviously the opposite of boring.
This is so true. For example, Werner Herzog hates the French language, despite speaking it fluently. He once had to regrettably speak French when he was held at gun point by drunk child soldiers in Africa.
They also use a handicapped B for the double S = ß
Tsk tsk. Silly Germans, but yes, one must not throw stones in their little glass houses. My native tongue, Danish, is also very nonsensical in differnet ways, but don't tell the Swedish that I told you that.
I was recently reminded how stupid ChatGPT is. I was translating some slang from Danish into English that I couldn't really find a satisfactory solution for myself. ChatGPT full on hallucinate every single fucking prompt for these slang translations nad I ended up turning to one of my colleagues instead and ask him how he would translate the slang instead and he immediately came up with a very funny and accurate translation that fit the context so much better.
The hallucinations that chaptgpt came up with were not just incorrect, it also started going into made up explanations of the history of this slang word and how it is used normally in Danish speech and how it is a compliment. In reality the slangword was a word I had made up, that fit with the context I was using it for, is NOT a compliment and is very much not something people have a history of saying in normal Danish speech. It's something that if you say it, most people will get what you mean, but it isn't something people say.
But thank you chatgpt for your creative writing session. It was a very disappointing experience.
Generally whenever anything related to translations to Danish when using American tech has always been absolutely fucking terrible. Everything is, of course, seen through the lense of American contexts so when you're Danish and using shit like Word, you always have to remember how the program thinks in English even if it's supposedly installed in Danish.
Google docs are especially terrible at this.
Chat GPT is next level terrible if you move even an inch away from clinical, Danish. I can't imagine how chatgpt would handle Southern Jut or any type of Danish dialect, really.
And when you're me, trying to translate a story that uses dialects, slang, fictional slang, broken Danish and normal Danish, you just have to accept that chatgpt is largely useless for anything other than translating at basic bitch level.
In a way that makes me feel comforted. All that fancy tech and they still aren't anywhere close to human.
I had a medium sized one many years ago, but it died. Luckily two of its babies survived and are still alive, but these things grow at the speed of a glacier.
Lol good catch, I just checked OPs profile and the average number of posts per day is currently 33 which seems pretty fucking insane. I tried to compare it to myself as I post comments quite often and I picked another very active user I have noticed and both our averages of posts per day were 6.
Abundance of unstructured and chaotic knowledge that is blended with misinformation, ads, memes and attention grabbing 5 second videos tends to overwhelm most people.
This reminds me of a particularly hilarious scene from The Death of Stalin where they have all the country's best doctors lined up to save Stalin after his heart attack, but they are all bumbling idiots and Stalins men get angry about how incompetent they are until someone reminds them that Stalin literally killed all the best and most capable doctors in the soviet union out of paranoia.
If he were to reply to your comment I know he would say "I'm not optimistic. I'm realistic." Haha
He's great. Genuinely one of the best people I have ever met. Everywhere he goes he makes friends, inspires people and helps them improve themselves. So effortlessly kind and accepting of others. And he always believes things will be made right even if a situation is bleak. The shit he deals with on the daily in his job has broken most people, but not him. His psyche is made of titanium, I swear. No matter what type of day he has had or what he is carrying in silence, he always has emotional bandwidth to be there for others. I love him so much.
*lukewarm.
Sorry, I'm not in this fight, but my inner grammar-nazi just couldn't help herself.
