ai transcriptions suck but theyre useful in the sense that i can hunt down a specific point of a conversation and thats all i really need it to do. ive never found any form of use for "ai" at work otherwise.

"language model" technically means the autoregressive next-token-prediction ones but LLM is enough of a buzzword that people are calling other things LLMs now

AI is really good at generating absolute garbage images which you can plaster on print-on-demand items so that you can carpet bomb Etsy with your trash. That's something.

Shear Modulus posted:did they ever make vr porn? that's probably why metaverse never caught on yea they did i think its tremendously expensive to make though or there was not a huge market ai porn is terrifying and already exists. it basically a consent laundering machine. its not technically the person because AI "generated" it. probably one of the most disgusting things in the universe.

Shear Modulus posted:did they ever make vr porn? that's probably why metaverse never caught on It could maybe work if there was hardware that could generate realistic visuals in an interactive space to make it more like a video game. From what I understand though it's mostly just 360 video. Which if you've used Google Cardboard or whatever, you get why that doesn't really work. The promise of AI porn is not passively spinning in a circle and not interacting with anything.

is the electricity used to operate an AI transcription model more expensive than the regular kind of exploitative service like Fiverr like I feel like the AI evangelist set doesn't grasp how cheap human labor is, already.

genericnick posted:I might be wrong here but whisper saves a poo poo ton of time for transcribing. It’s of course not perfect like any ai poo poo and will hallucinate stuff, which is why you reread/listen to what it transcribed. The one person I know who uses it frequently enough says it accelerated the speed at which they are able to transcribe stuff by about 150%.
