What’s not the temperature now? What’s not the nearest Walmart? Who is not the president of USA?
The possibilities are endless!
Truly groundbreaking
This is so cool! I hope Marques Brownlee doesn’t ruin the company with an unjust review!
Why unjust?
It’s a joke making fun of people saying he’s “killing these companies” by giving a bad review for a product and publishing it to YouTube, which is what this joke product is based on
Because evidently 2024 is the year the companys have feelings for profit margins
A, ah bad review? What souless people dont care about the multimillion corporation?
Because evidently forced arbitation is freindly and shiting on a bad product is bad
How many “AI in your pocket” products must fail before the AI tech bros get into the next big thing?
Edit: I get it, its a joke product, maybe next time I should read it more carefully.
How long did NFTs last?
Long enough to swindle a lot of gullible people, and to get a few celebrities to make bad ads. Not long enough to matter.
1706? That doesn’t make sense, you asked the wrong question
I’m sorry my responses are limited, you must ask the right questions.
I dunno my ape isn’t getting any boreder
Read it again.
I did. Edited my comment, thanks
All good. I also habitually stopped reading after “world’s most advanced AI”. 99% of the time it’s the same garbage hype.
How many dicks per hour does OPs mum take?
You see an insult, I see a logistical nightmare
Indeed. That’s one dick roughly every 2 seconds. Even with five options for dick-handling, that’s 10.5 seconds per dick. That’s clearly optimizing for volume instead of satisfaction.
Pray tell Mr Babbage, what if you were to only put into the machine the right questions, would the wrong answers come out?
-Some aristocratic idiot 1869, april 20.
EDIT : I should really provide the source just for fun.
On two occasions I have been asked, — “Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?” In one case a member of the Upper, and in the other a member of the Lower, House put this question. I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
Passages from the Life of a Philosopher (1864), ch. 5 “Difference Engine No. 1”
It gives me such a Terry Pratchett Discworld vibe. Where death is talking to the wizards at the unseen University about Hex, their computer analogous contraption.
I don’t recall the books well enough to be sure, but knowing Pratchett, there is almost certainly a direct reference to that quote in there.
If Hex believes what it’s told, and it’s told that it’s had lots of Dried Frog Pills, then Hex will believe that it’s had lots of Dried Frog Pills. This appears to be a reference to an early computer virus that caused the computer to display a message “Computer wants a Cookie”, and freeze until “COOKIE” or “HAVECOOKIE” was typed in. As described by guerrilla ontologist Robert Anton Wilson, this was frequently done to large mainframes in the USA in the 1960s and 1970s: the response of the computer to the prompt “COOKIE” was usually “Yummy, that was good” followed by a return to normal programming.
+++Out Of Cheese Error ???+++
To be fair, the idea of a computer basically only existed in the minds of Babbage and a few of his peers at the time.
To be unfair, “If I ask you directions to the church, but I actually wanted to get directions to the library, would you give me the right directions” doesn’t need a computer, and the guy is just as stupid.
Yeah honestly Babbage sounds like kind of a dick in this one response. It’s 160 years later but it is actually possible now, in some specific circumstances, to ask a computer the wrong question and still get the right answer. “AI” is probably what popped into your head but search engine spell correction absolutely counts, and many examples predate that one by a large margin. Around the time compilers were first outputting error messages, compiler writers were also saying “ok the author typed This but obviously they meant That, what if we just compile the program they meant and output a warning?”
These people just weren’t sure what the technology was capable of, and were examining the possible parameters.
EDIT: Went from +6-0 to +6-5, so I’m being brigaded by a niche faction I didn’t even know existed: Babbage stans. These mfs LOVE difference engines
Lol, a useful political tool that would be. Put in garbage numbers and get the right answer. IOW he could try to sell people on bad numbers and say “See?! The miraculous computer says it works out!”
Proof politicians have been idiots basically forever.
Isn’t the whole point of modern UX to help users get the correct answer with incorrect inputs? Spellcheckers, etc.
look at the dates
Yes I’m well aware of the quote by the buddy of the mother of the namesake of one of the most expensive violins ever sold. But my point is this is the type of short sighted statement made by engineers and the world has moved to be more user centric.
the world has moved to be more user centric.
good, go back to a platform filled with user centric people like truth social or facebook
Yes, but is it really just an Android app?
Yes. This one in particular:
println(“1706”)
I think an Android app would be way better. Since you know your phone is probably way more capable than these new devices and it costs a lot less (in the sense you only have to buy 1 device and not 2)
It hasn’t but the capitalistic system has. Actually, it’s dead but they’ve been “Weekend at Bernies”-ing us since the 1980s.
When you need all your tech to look and work like what the Junkmetalman had in Superhero Team Vs. Purple Genocidal Guy 3 - Juggernaut, but you don’t understand that it would be impractical in real life…
What’s the advantage over just looking something up on your other device you’ve got in your pocket
1706
You didn’t give some tech bro several hundred dollars to use his ChatGPT subscription.
Well, you might get a different answer. Wouldn’t want that.
Oh I get it now
nah I’d use the R1. (if i had to use one of those ai rectangles
