However, in the art arena AI is frustrating when you need a very specific image and not just a 'a tree a dog a bird and a farmhouse' AI art is getting better with text in the image but still makes some mistakes there. AI does poorly when you try to use it as a search engine : "What movie had a ball shaped robot" might bring back any answer. Warning though - AI is getting better at hands and spurious limbs.
What is AI good for - Images that are suitable for screen backgrounds, Creative text work - I had chatgpt work with me on a procedure to un-mothball a starship, it suggested details I did not think of. I had chatgpt also read and suggest re-wording and correction on text for documentation. I fed it a chapter at a time and proofread the output carefully to mitigate hallucination.
Here is the text above after a chatgpt re-write:
AI excels at creating stunning screen backgrounds and tackling creative text work. For example, I worked with ChatGPT to craft a procedure for un-mothballing a starship, and it offered valuable details I hadn’t considered. It’s also a fantastic tool for refining documentation—I had it review and reword chapters, carefully proofreading to ensure accuracy. The results were efficient, insightful, and elevated the final product.
Oh, also this is not an industrial setting with a computer controlling some heavy equipment. This is a nostalgia lab. MSDOS was the thing when I was around 22 or so.
FreeDOS is running on a dedicated i5 desktop with 8gb ram. I wanted to get a period correct desktop machine to run MSDOS 6.22 but all the "Electronic Surplus" places have all dried up.
So I built the least powered machine I could (Well I could have used an i3, but the difference in price was only $10.00. I only put in 1 of the smallest memory sticks they had ...)
I have a dos running in DOSBOX, but it's not the same as real hardware, and it's not easy to use a usb floppy drive with it. With my dedicated machine I can even boot from floppy if I want/need to.
RIP Weird Stuff, Halted Specialties, The one that used to be near the Oakland Airport and others I remember but don't remember their names. Not to mention the internet famous one in Texas - Computer Reset. Oh, now I am sad.
A Bard, an advanced story teller, One who draws pictures of things that never were (people with 3 arms for example), Lore from Star Trek. Don't give it power to do anything on its own, always monitor it.
When one of these guys attacks your site, do they send the info back to the spoofed address or does the scraped info go to their real IP address? Is there some way to get a fix on the actual bot and not on some home user that got his network facing IP address hijacked?
I refuse to let gaming preferences dictate my choice of operating system. I choose my OS first—Linux—because I demand full ownership of my computing environment. If an entity can extract data without your knowledge or control updates, shutdowns, or reboots against your will, they own your machine—not you. With Linux, I own my system entirely. I decide when updates happen, I control what data—if any—leaves my computer, and nothing happens without my explicit consent. My computer works for me, not someone else.
I have not progressed to the point where I can manage a structured language interpreter. The language I would write is sort of like assembler for a machine that works in Doubles.
Nah, all this is solved with star-dates. One of the Federation's crowning achievements - Warp Drive is small potatoes compared to getting hundreds of delegates from as many different worlds to all agree on one calendar system that is not based on their own world's orbit around its primary.. Diplomatic impossibility, but they managed it.
