Recently a new philosophy of parenting has been emerging, which can be termed “vibe parenting” and describes a novel method for the individual parent to circumvent an inability to answer the sporadic yet profound questions their children raise by directing them to ask ChatGPT.
My parents, 40 years ago, would say "look it up", either in the dictionary, or the 1959 encyclopedia set we had. With my kids i never told them to look something up in the literal dictionary, but i would tell them to look at wikipedia or "google it". Not about profound questions, though; although a definition of "profound questions" might jog a memory. We do look things up in an etymology dictionary (i have 5 or 6) sometimes, though.
I am not sure why my parents constantly told me to look things up in a dictionary.
Rarely, but it did happen, we'd have to take a trip to the library to look something up. Now, instead of digging in a card catalog or asking a librarian, and then thumbing through reference books, i can ask an LLM to see if there's even information plausibly available before dedicating any more time to "looking something up."
As i've been saying lately, i use copilot to see if my memory is failing.
Aren't the LLMs also pretty decent code reviewers? Sure, not perfect, but the suggestion that we should use code review as the replacement for the coding challenge 'because AI' seems a bit misplaced...
Makes sense that GP appreciates the taste of dog water when they’re mocking their friends for having had values (friends whom likely gave up their values to stop being mocked)
Well, not all MIDI sounds bad. Have a listen to the Addictive Drummer demos for example. It can sound pretty damn good / real. Still, your point is well taken. MIDI guitar emulations for example are still pretty dang bad. One wonders if this is because a guitar is a more continuous vs discrete instrument compared to drums. Even with all of MIDI’s rich parameters, it’s pretty tough to describe pick angle, materials, etc.
Also, I wonder if there will be a natural “backlash” against generic AI music and towards stuff that has more human imperfection. But then again even the AI will learn to imitate the imperfections so what exactly will make a piece more human in the long run?
It used to be against guidelines to serve different content to google vs what users would see. Not sure if still the case, but I don't think it's in google's interest to give a result that the user actually can't access.
I’m not aware that this policy has changed. What has changed is that Google will rank results it can’t (officially) index without showing their content. I’m guessing they do shadow index them but use the whole “if you outwardly can’t tell they did then it’s as if they didn’t” C++ compilers use to get away with insane optimizations.
