  • Maybe a bit of both, caz the real question is if your dog passed away, and you pay an artist to draw your dog for a memorial, but they just generate it with AI. Will it still carry the same mesaage, or feel fake?

    My take on it is that maybe in a few years they'll be indistinguishable. But as of now, I'd wager that you'd probably feel that the picture has no love in it. And as I said above I can't point it out why you'd feel that way, just intuition.

  • there is for sure something about AI just being just a new "brush". For sure, but still, now a single line and a landscape takes the same effort. If someone masters prompting and maybe does some post editing, it could be just as meaningful.

    Whether it's "real art" is another topic of conversation.

  • this encapsulates everything I dislike about AI, very well made picture tho, don't get me wrong. However it makes these high detail pictures in seconds, but it contains no meaning. You can just feel this picture having no soul. I can't really put it into words, but whenever I see art that has this much detail it's full of life, AI makes the same level of detail but without life.

    I have no Idea why it's like this, but it is. I simply feel that this image is empty.

  • What you are saying ia only half true. While you can get addicted to let's say your phone, it's still natural. You can put it down and pick it up any time, you just have a harder time reasoning with yourself, and will do it sometimes out of habbit.

    However drugs manipulate your brain, and getting addicted to drugs is on another level of addiction. The "harder to reason with yourself" part becomes near impossible. Without help you borderline can't stop.

    With a "natural" addiction your impulses are still in a healthy range. You are in control, it just guides you to something that you like subconsciously.

    I oversimplified and I'm also not a professional at this topic, but I did some research. I was curious about why can't ppl stop playing some videogames, while others are just an activity, nothing more. (Also why the tiktok formula is so addicting)

  • lol, math is literally the only subject that has rules set in stone. This example is specifically made to cause confusion. Division has the same priority as multiplication. You go from left to right. problem here is the fact that you see divison in fraction form way more commonly. A fraction could be writen up as (x)/(y) not x/y (assuming x and y are multiple steps). Plain and simple.

    The fact that some calculator get it wrong means that the calculator is wrongly configured. The fact that some people argue that you do () first and then do what's outside it means that said people are dumb.

    They managed to get me once too, by everyone spreading missinformation so confidently. Don't even trust me, look up the facts for yourself. And realise that your comment is just as incorrect as everyone who said the answer is 1. (uhm well they don't agree on 0^0, but that's kind of a paradox)

  • Thanks, it makes sense. I just don't yet see how I'd reduce the number of ifs*, but I guess it's a case by case thing.

    • simplest I can think of is let's say we need different logic based on a number's parity. How do I avoid if x % 2 == 0?
  • well, It's not a joke. But the rest is way to optimistic. You aren't the first to say that my teacher is just way smarter.then I give credit for but the thing is, noone (in my class) that I tried to share this idea with believed this to be the case. I'll stay optimistic, and see what'll happen.

    Thanks for the warning about overly braching code, I'll keep that in mind. (however, I don't get why more loops and ifs makes a function harder to test, I'm just going to trust you and that I'll find out later.
