Thorny_Insight, to asklemmy in Am I the only one getting agitated by the word AI?

Real AGI does not exist yet. AI has existed for decades.

Thorny_Insight, to piracy in Looking for exploration game reccomendations that work on linux and work with controllers

I’m not exactly sure what you mean by exploration but DayZ works on Linux. It’s an open world zombie survival multiplayer game with a massive map. I have 650 hours on this game and there are still probably few towns I haven’t ever visited.

Thorny_Insight, to asklemmy in How do Hue Bulbs do millions of different colors, what sorcery is this?

Another thing that’s curious about these lights which also applies to your computer/smartphone display aswell is the fact that it’s able to produce yellow color despite only having red, green and blue leds in it. If you open up a yellow picture on your monitor and look closely with a magnifying glass there’s no yellow there.

Thorny_Insight, (edited ) to asklemmy in What are some problems that countries outside the U.S. are dealing with?

Russia is sending migrants to Finland and after we closed the eastern border they started walking thru the forest and showing up on the yards of people living close to the border. These people are literally hiking thru deep snow in the freezing winter wearing sneakers.

Thorny_Insight, to comicstrips in Sleeping position

I just keep rolling untill I fall asleep. Trying to sleep in a specific position is near impossible. Even the best one gets uncomfortable pretty quick. Only thing I try to avoid is sleeping on my right side as it seems to be the cause for my rhomboid pain

Thorny_Insight, to asklemmy in What salary do you think would make you happy?

My plumber salary has been more than enough for me. I hope I can maintain it as self-employed aswell.

Thorny_Insight, to piracy in I hope someday we'll find a way to pirated a car

It’s not like older vehicles came with those features enabled by default. On my 15 year old pickup you can’t have any of that even if you paid for it. I think this is not quite the same as other brands that are locking you out of features like heated seats.

Thorny_Insight, (edited ) to lemmyshitpost in Me IRL

Jokes aside there’s really some truth in this. I’m not sure if it’s the dopamine or that I just need to disctract my mind away from the things that makes me anxious but I sure as hell don’t do it because I’m horny. I don’t even remember what being horny feels like.

And no, I’m not one of those nofap/pornfree fanatics. For most people there probably is not an issue there. It’s only when you spend 6 hours several times a week doing something like this that you might start to consider this may not be good for you.

Thorny_Insight, to asklemmy in What is the best option to provide for people who are homeless in the cold?

First things that comes to mind about staying warm in cold weather is wool instead of synthetics/cotton and mittens rather than gloves.

Thorny_Insight, to asklemmy in Am I the only one getting agitated by the word AI?

Have I claimed it has changed?

Thorny_Insight, (edited ) to asklemmy in Am I the only one getting agitated by the word AI?

Artificial intelligence might be really good, perhaps even superhuman at one thing, for example driving a car but that same competence doesn’t apply over variety of fields. Your self-driving car can’t help with your homework. With artificial general intelligence however, it does. Humans posses general intelligence; we can do math, speak different languages, know how to navigate social situations, know how to throw a ball, can interpret sights, sounds etc.

With a real AGI you don’t need to develop different versions of it for different purposes. It’s generally intelligent so it can do it all. This also includes writing its own code. This is where the worry about intelligence explosion origins from. Once it’s even slightly better than humans at writing its code it’ll make a more competent version of itself which will then create even more competent version and so on. It’s a chain reaction which we might not be able to stop. After all it’s by definition smarter than us and being a computer; also million times faster.

Edit: Another feature that AGI would most likely, though not neccessarily posses is consciousness. There’s a possibility that it feels like something to be generally intelligent.

Thorny_Insight, to asklemmy in What are the best steps to reduce the wealth of billionaires?

But then you’d be a billionaire aswell and would need to be excecuted for the horrible person you are.

Thorny_Insight, to privacy in Prvacy-friendly dash cams?

Aren’t most of them like that? The one I have records when the car is on and turns off when it’s not. It basically has no features at all except for the capability to record video and audio. Made by Garmin.

Thorny_Insight, to lemmyshitpost in You Are

The average stock market growth of 7% a year includes both world wars

Thorny_Insight, to asklemmy in Lemmy, is there a treasured piece of content that you stop yourself from going back to "too often" so as to not dilute it?

Not that I’m stopping myself from going back to it too often but for being such a popular song, Feel Good Inc. by Gorillaz somehow has managed to not lose it’s magic on me. I never search for it but every organic encounter in the wild stops me on my tracks and sends chills down my spine. A true masterpiece.
