This is a great conversation because I'm one of those people who's terrible at arithmetic, but quite good at math. As in: I can look at a function, visualize it in 3D space, see what different max, mins and surfaces are dominated by what terms etc, but don't ask me to tally a meal check. I'd be useless at applying any math without a calculator.

Similarly, there's a lot of engineers out there that use CAD extensively that would probably not be engineers if they had to do drafting by hand.

The oatmeal did a comic that distilled this for me where they talked about why they didn't like AI "art". They made the point that in making a drawing, there are a million little choices made reconciling what's in your head with what you can do on the page. Either from the medium, what you're good at drawing, whatever, it's those choices that give the work "soul". Same thing for writing. Those choices are where learning, development, and style happen, and what generative AI takes away.

That helped crystalize for me the difference between a tool and autocomplete on steroids.

Edit: to add: you're statement "I claim to understand but don't" hits it on the head and is similar to why you have to be careful if plagiarism in citing academic review papers. If you write YOUR paper in a way that agrees with the review but discuss the paper the review was referencing, and, even accidentally, skip over that the conclusion you're putting forward is from the review, not the paper you're both citing, that's plagiarism. Notion being you misrepresented their thoughts as your own. That is basically ALL generative AI.

this makes me feel much better. I'm debating spooling it up on wifi after disconnecting it and piecing it back together.

thank you! I had looked at the documentation but was unable to find that. I think to be safe I'm going to follow what @autriyo@feddit.org said as well. There's no reason not to label them.

Which means, sorry future people stumbling on this, I will not be providing definitive evidence one way or the other on this.

I cannot emphasize enough how unwilling I'd be to interact with someone that has these.

2nd gramps. I spooled it up in about 2mins on an unraid server.

Ah, I thought the date was announced like two weeks ago. My mistake.

But in any event hope you get some good time in with it this weekend. When the vibe is that unique there's nothing like a second helping done right.

Yeah, this was one of those games that I could see the craftsmanship but just wasn't for me.

But strong follow up to a much beloved original IP for a very reasonable price? That borderline shadow dropped? Love it, yall enjoy your suprise Christmas and go nuts. Cool as hell.

I'm glad somebody got the joke.

I understand you're frustrated about the AI race. That's an excellent point, and it deserves careful consideration. First, in considering the AI race we need to consider what AI is...

Nice try FBI Agent.

Do you happen to use android auto? Does that work OK? I could go without, but that's one integration that's just got it's hooks on me hard.

The thing that pisses me off most is that cars have these vulnerabilities, and automakers do a shit job of protecting them, but do just a good enough job to keep me, the owner, from playing with them.
