Correct, the concept existed academically since 1976. However the term didn’t enter common usage until a little later into internet culture being a thing.

NONE Pizza with Left Beef This one still makes me laugh out loud.

Much like reddit, people can just make communities on whatever topic, and they are largely open to anyone with an account on their server, or on any of the many servers connected to it. Someone on Perchance must have a community on lemmy.world that they are directing people to for discussion. I don’t think there’s any connection beyond that.

If that’s a community name, the way to make a link that works for everyone would be
!perchance@lemmy.world

Edit: Yep, that is a community for discussing Perchance. You can just stick with that, or see what else is around. We’re still a lot smaller than reddit, and kind of fragmented by design, but there’s still a lot of cool people discussing all sorts of things to be found around.

Howdy, neighbor!

Whenever a company makes their whole image about something that has nothing to do with their actual business model, I immediately doubt the quality of their product or service. Especially if that image comes with an overtly political agenda. If their thing is something I like or care about, I’ll consider the possibility that their quality might, maybe, be decent, but this particular company is one where I intend to let my assumption stand untested.

I mean, I assume it had the correct number of bits in it, it’s just that all but the 3rd least significant bit were all 0s.

Probably, but now he’s being told it makes him look weak. Might even work, he gets pretty pissy about that sort of thing.

Well, I stand corrected. It’s probably usually still true. From my own experience, I replied to about 20 odd that every time they texted me again I would donate money to <insert opponent here>, and every single one texted me again with no comment on my threat. I was bluffing of course, but they had no way to know that. I figured that made sense anyway, the process was automated mass texting, why would they bother making a way to read the responses?

Sadly, no one actually reads any replies to political spam texts.

I like to just call them by what they do. Image generation model, text to speech model, word guessing engine. All of these things are within the computational field called “artificial intelligence,” but not a one of them contains a lick of actual intelligence. Now that people outside computational academics are exposed to the term, I don’t want to confuse them into thinking intelligence has been achieved. It’s just an aspirational name, and folks are confused enough already.

It’s just a Ponzi scheme with extra steps.
