  • Out of curiosity I’ve tried the AI feature in Paint (on my work computer) to erase something and use AI to fill in the background

    I was removing a line between two items on a flowchart, background had diagonal colored lines in a regular repeating pattern (think college ruled paper at an angle).

    Instead of connecting the lines in the background it seemed to just take an average of the pixel colors of the edge of what I erased and fill it in with that average color. Such intelligence!





  • Which is intensely frustrating for people who actually care about free speech. Can’t talk about it without setting off everyone’s “that guy is probably a nazi” alarms.

    It’s absolutely an intentional trap to attempt to get people to support moves against free speech by tainting the concept through negative association.

    We shouldn’t tolerate hate speech. But I’m concerned about where we end up in a few decades if the concept of free speech keeps the current connotations.

    And people might consider even this comment as sealioning or something.

    Meanwhile we have people unironically using phrases like unalive and censoring swear words in screenshots so they don’t trip the automated content filters on mainstream social media. That should be more concerning than people seem to take it. People joke about “literally 1984”, but unalive is blatant newspeak.
