  • What do you see that you wish others saw?
  • Most of the stars we see are several thousand light-years away from Earth. That means we are seeing the stars' past as well.

  • This is impressive!

  • It is actually quite cool to be able to travel virtually when my body is no longer capable. The technology will have advanced dramatically in 2 decades.

  • What do you see that you wish others saw?
  • Weather (clouds), moonlight.

    And the fact that I have responsibilities as an adult, and it is not easy to go to an actually remote location at the right time.

    Going to a dark site is not as easy as "just drive an hour from your home."

  • Admit it: ‘Artificial general intelligence’ may already be obsolete, Expecting OpenAI’s GPT and other large language models to beat humans at thinking like a human might be missing the point.
  • Flat earthers have access to all the information yet they still decide that flat earth is true.

    I am not saying that current AI is intelligent. I am just seeing similarity between how human and AI process information.

  • Alternative to Nova Launcher
  • I always go back to Kiss Launcher after trying other launchers. With a huge amount of apps, there is no point trying to organise the icons. Nothing beats typing the first letter and launch.

  • Admit it: ‘Artificial general intelligence’ may already be obsolete, Expecting OpenAI’s GPT and other large language models to beat humans at thinking like a human might be missing the point.
  • They have to update the training data with the latest findings. Some AI models may use external sources to fetch the most current information.

  • In a way, human intelligence is like that.

    People used to think earth used to be the centre of the universe, because everybody said so. Would you say that only Nicolaus Copernicus was intelligent?

  • What do you see that you wish others saw?
  • When I was young I saw the night sky with the milky way clearly visible. I never got the chance to see it again.

    I travelled to the top of a remote mountain free of any light pollution or air pollution. It was a dark night with new moon. The sky was completely clear. I still had good eyesight at that time.

    The starry night sky was magnificent and mesmerizing.

  • You got lots of downvotes, but actually not too far from reality.

  • Soon, Everyone Will Own a Robot, Like a Car or Phone Today
  • 18% of people own a car on a global scale.

    So 18% = everyone?

  • The article title makes no sense, and the article itself too.

    No one is saying GPT has achieved AGI. Is it a strawman argument?

    AGI could end up in a similar predicament: a benchmark, devised by humans, that’s rendered obsolete by the technology it was meant to measure.

    Just because we can't measure it doesn't mean it is obsolete.

  • Developers, please give us more visibility options.

    The aim of a streamlined user interface is appreciated, but the current trend towards extreme minimalism can be counterproductive. It often leads to a cumbersome experience where accessing common features or information requires unnecessary navigation.

    Take, for instance, the display of the author's name and instance. Certain Lemmy applications deem the instance trivial and choose to hide it, while others omit the author's details from the main feed entirely, necessitating extra steps to uncover them.

    Another example is the ability to view upvotes and downvotes as distinct figures. While some may only want the aggregate score, the absence of this feature overlooks the preferences of users who value this detail.

    Implementing optional features like displaying author names, instances, or separate up/downvote counts gives users more control over their app experience. This way, those who prefer a clean interface can keep it that way, while those who value specific details can have them readily available.

    What are some science fiction novels that are relatively easier for non-native English readers?

    I am looking for scifi novels based on real scientific concepts, but with easy to follow plots and characters.

    My English level is proficient in a professional setting, and I have no problem reading academic, medical or scientific articles in English.

    I love watching documentaries on BBC, but I sometimes struggle watching dramas and sitcoms without subtitles.

    I am mainly trying to find audio books that I can listen to while driving. I am half way through listening to Carl Sagan's Contact on audio, it is great and not too difficult because I've already watched the movie many times.

    Just a plumber wearing a red cap

    He is short and plump with fair skin, bright blue eyes, a big nose, and a thick dark-brown mustache. He wears a red cap with an “M” logo, a red long-sleeved shirt, blue overalls with yellow buttons, white gloves, and brown shoes. He is often seen jumping and stomping.

    His facial features: Rounded face with soft features. Large, expressive eyes that are usually drawn closed when jumping or running. Black, bushy mustache that often covers his upper lip. Small, round nose and a chin that blends smoothly into his cheeks. Minimal lines or wrinkles, suggesting a youthful appearance. Bright blush on his cheeks, conveying a cheerful and energetic personality.

    His shoes are work boots with laces, reaching mid-calf.

    What is your favourite title screen and why? Here is mine.

    Game: Detroit Become Human

    Why: Chloe breaks with fourth wall in an immersive way. She is beautiful and expressive. The actress did an amazing job expressing the doubt and confusion of Chloe.

    Re:What do you think .about Japanese//game titles ~Code:DX R~ plus alpha f

    I find many Japanese game titles (in English) cringy. Especially the excessive use of certain words like "re", "code" and "zero". This seems to have gotten worse in recent years.

    I guess it is supposed to be cool or edgy for some people.

    TIL researchers recorded the brain waves of a dying person, they showed patterns similar to those occurring during memory recall.

    Neuroscientists have recorded the activity of a dying human brain and discovered rhythmic brain wave patterns around the time of death that are similar to those occurring during dreaming, memory recall, and meditation. Now, a study published to Frontiers brings new insight into a possible organizational role of the brain during death and suggests an explanation for vivid life recall in near-death experiences.
