I recommend the book “How to invent everything” by Ryan North. It’s humor, an instruction manual for stranded time travelers who have to recreate civilization. It includes a section on testing food for edibility. https://www.howtoinventeverything.com/

LesserAbe@lemmy.worldto Programming@programming.dev•Adding a feature because ChatGPT incorrectly thinks it exists10·2 days agoYou know it’s not strictly auto completing sentences that previously existed, right? It’s using words that it anticipates should follow others. I’ve had it suggest code libraries that don’t exist, and you’ll hear about people going to the library to ask for books that haven’t been written but supposedly by real authors, and it sounds like something they would write.
Tab music notation is super common, and although it wasn’t supported by this particular service before, you could see where it might be the sort of request people make, and so chatgpt combined the two.
Yeah and what if we played it backward and with the colors inverted
Remember when memes were just asking if you remembered a thing
Read the other thread. This screenshot is misleading since we don’t see the prompt. Someone else in the thread asked Grok about the Holocaust and it answered as you’d hope: https://lemmy.world/comment/18079515

Sure the lyrics aren’t saying something important or the singer isn’t the same person as the songwriter, but a lot of hours went into it. The average person on the street could not create a comparable song to what you hear on the radio without significant effort.
LesserAbe@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.zip•Half a million Spotify users are unknowingly grooving to an AI-generated bandEnglish21·8 days agoIt’s not exactly slop if the pigs eat it is it /s
I get what you’re saying, if people don’t detect ai music it must not be so bad. But in the original usage of slop, pigs don’t care, but humans wouldn’t eat the food. Same here, just because some people don’t mind doesn’t mean others can’t easily discern the difference
You could also make the argument that pigs would prefer better food if it was an option, but they have no choice, they’re only given access to slop.
LesserAbe@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.zip•Half a million Spotify users are unknowingly grooving to an AI-generated bandEnglish10·8 days agoI get not liking it, and there are some real clunkers, but I think you’re dramatically underestimating the amount of craft and expertise that goes into some pop music.
Same, our church growing up never talked about that. (disclaimer atheist now)
I know that scholars understand the “official” Bible as a combination of earlier sources. Still, it’s funny how much Bible fanfic there is. How do you decide which stuff is real and which stuff is too crazy.
Interestingly, while Quds news takes a very specific point of view that some will disagree with, their article is more informative than this one in terms of sourcing for the claim.

What is Timelinedaily? The story says “There are numerous media reports” but doesn’t cite any. I’m skeptical until someone can point to a reputable source.

LesserAbe@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Socialism is the actual teaching of Jesus61·16 days agoNo sense imagining a hypothetical Jesus, but if you go by what the bible says, Jesus said “it’s easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom is heaven.” He said sell all of your possessions and then follow me. The bible talks about how people in the church shared what they had in common. If someone had a need someone would sell their property and distribute it to those who needed it.
Of course they also thought Jesus was going to return soon, within their lifetimes, and bring a perfect world. Not wait over 2,000 years
LesserAbe@lemmy.worldto Buy European@feddit.uk•Know before you buy: starting today, EU’s new labels shake up the smartphone market4·18 days agoI pay attention to that stuff. Would it be better if more people shopped thoughtfully? Sure. But it’s not “nobody” and if manufacturers know that such and such a metric impacts sales by even 5% then they’ll probably try to improve it. Even if they don’t try to improve it, it means I personally can buy in a more informed way.

LesserAbe@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Honda pulls off surprise reusable rocket test launchEnglish91·21 days agoHe’s a shit show, but SpaceX is still doing great. They have more launches per year than any other company or country. While they’ve had multiple launches explode recently, that’s their newer larger rocket where they’re still working out kinks.
If they can’t get that into shape eventually it could be a problem for the company, but their smaller rocket has a great record, reusable, a fraction of the cost of any other launch provider. Right now they’re the only game in town for the U.S. getting to the ISS.
I’d love to see Musk ousted, and more importantly to see real competition from other private launch providers. But don’t let Musk hate color your view of reality.

Nice, thanks for sharing. I might have missed it but does it say how they handled audio?
Superimposing images would probably have more happy accidents than superimposing reversed audio, which would probably just make things unintelligible.
