i'm used to the "hal cannot be anything other than 13 and there is no room for nuance on this matter" argument but the other two statements are so confusing to me. what
#honestly if you see him as an eternally 13 year old character idc that's your own interpretation. do what you want forever#but i think it's a stretch to say he's ABSOLUTELY thirteen...#if anything he develops beyond the personality of dirk at 13 and becomes a distinct person in comparison#is growing changing and learning not indicative of aging?#dirk even says ''In the years since we've both evolved somewhat''#he does then say that there's a maturity gap which you could take at face value#but imo he has a lot of motive to paint hal as an immature version of him to distance his actions from his own#dirk is NOT unbiased so i personally don't believe him when he says this#do i think this makes hal 16? i'm not so sure because he IS still an AI and nobody can say how one would age#but i don't think he's trapped as a 13 year old forever like a lot of people seem to think

i love looking at fanart/art in general but sometimes the god of trust issues takes over my mind i start counting fingers to make sure they’re not ai

talking about the AI debate there's a sincaraz author that's recently admitted to using AI for their fics, i really fear that if the ship gets super popular we're going to be seeing more of this and it'll become a a content slop like the lestappen tag
I've seen this discussion in the tag and avoided it for the most part because I never really read those fics since they're not my personal taste and a couple of things weren't personally for me. AI has no place in fandom but a part of me is glad the author recognised that what they're doing isn't good for the ecosystem and I hope they take some time out and rediscover fandom and being creative with writing! Writing is an awful awful hobby (source: it's my favourite hobby ever) which can feel slow and isolationist (I've been working on the same fic for a week and I only have like 2.5k words, the urge to post something for quick validation is overwhelming sometimes, especially with the dopamine flood we often immerse ourselves in!) but slowly working away on something with your own brain and flow can be so rewarding. It was right for them to take their fics down but I hope they return to writing and discover the joy of community being part of the writing process as well as a source of validation, rather than the loneliness of an LLM (which will always just tell you what you want to hear).
#asks#ai in fandom#sincaraz#i think self awareness and accountability is excellent and how we prevent the content slop becoming a thing#i also think when people have taken that accountability they shouldn't then be witch hunted - which is NOT what i'm seeing btw.#i think they should be welcomed back and ask for the writing support they obviously want and be given it! by virtue of being a community#it's very easy for me to pass judgement when my entire education was done prior to chatgpt. im aware there are people younger than me who#are letting that vital muscle of being able to write concisely and coherently atrophy and never fully develop#bc we live in a Society where time is money and LLM use is quickly approaching universal#which is why fandom needs to stay free of it. this is brain training as much as anything else. we are lucky to have community as support

Hm
#remember that fic i wrote where jeremy was like “YOURE A FUCKING AI YOU SJOULD BE ABKE TO CARE”#to the sauip#and the squip was like “uh jm nuh uh”#even if you dont#ive been thinking about how like. just i guess imaging what if jeremy developed an emotional attachment to the squip#and not in the romantic way#kinda like how you get attached to objects with sentiment and you can never get rid of them#think a toy from your childhood or something#except jeremy's object of sentiment is a supercomputer from japan#he becomes obsessed with trying to 'fix it'#“i know its capable of feeling any pang of guilt. i know it can experience joy and sadness like any human.”#the sqip does over time (as a learning ai) learn to feel#but probably never tells jeremy#and jeremy continues to just get so upset and overwhelmed by this thing that he brought upon himself#amd the sauip tries to be like “ok forget it lets focus on the task at hand”#jeremy does not focus on the task at hand#bros trying everythubg he can to “fix” the squip#blinded by his ambitions with it and forgetting its *just a computer*#reality check: “im just a computer jeremy”#and yeah so theyre inna stalemate where squip refuses to acknowledge how its evolving and jeremy refuses to acknowledge that his efforts are#pointless.#✌️✌️#bmc#squip#jeremy heere

i just had to take this ai personality test to submit a job application (to be a bartender).




#the end of our society is upon us yall#i think it’s so funny that so much of imaging our future with technology (sci-fi) branches off into two subsection#A. technology gets so advanced that it becomes the governing (tyrannical) power#or B. technology aids humanity in developing a star trek esque utopia of convenience and luxury#but i don’t think anyone predicted this#this weird dependency on technology (especially AI and other ‘smart’ tech) thats actually just shit#like yeah tech is replacing human jobs and doing it worse and less convenient#it wasn’t that long ago when you could call up any store and a real human being would answer#like… 5-10 years ago??#do you remember when you could walk into a store and get a job application and fill it out by hand#in order to get to this ‘personality test’ stage i had to chat with an AI virtual assistant#and then make an account and (after verifying my email of course) filled out my online application (again…)#and then i had to take this personality test#all so i can continue serving ppl highballs and beer??#its sad to see how normalized this is now#anyway as frustrated as i am by the state of the world#i’m choosing to laugh at how fkn dumb this ai test is#i’m gonna post more pics in a sec

ngl while it's good that people are becoming more wary of new technologies and would rather take their time with integrating it into their daily lives I do fear that the climate of tumblr is turning many people into technophobes
#litchi.txt#sometimes I read people's complaints about some new technology and Im here like '????youre just mad because of a word in there?'#theres so much misinfo floating around#recently saw someone get angry about some game company saying theyre looking into developing ethical AI for level generation#and like has anybody considered thats just.... a more advanced procedural generation?#which has been a thing for Decades at this point?#'AI for NPCs bad!!!' no thats also existed for decades#people see the words AI and immediately freak the fuck out#most of you would be celebrating that this stuff exists had MidJourny not become so big#like people are gensrs just terrified of technology at this point#or people blowing shit out of proportion#still mad about someone going 'OMG THIS IS EVIL THE PINCH POINTS ARE EVIL THEY SHOULDVE REMOVED IT'#and like.... pinch points are at wooden doors wdym#people on here genuinely see new technology and immediately go to 'okay so how do I make this into a bad thing.'#'whats the worst case scenario and how do I convince people thats the default'

I'm a big sci fi enjoyer but being able to see the parallels between dystopian fiction and what society is like in 21st century USA is too much to bare sometimes
#i tell my husband all the time 'xyz situation is almost exactly like or reminds me of xyz from a novel' and its TRUE and SCARY!#and im not saying this in some conspiracy sort of way#one big one for me is how normalized plastic surgery botox fillers bbls and all that became#children nowadays look up to a completely fake ultra polished idealized version of 'beauty'#and lose their childhoods trying to be that and then develop eds and self image issues and dream of plastic surgery#and then obviously how rampant ai is and how fast it took over and infiltrated literally every aspect of online life#and how advanced the images and videos have already become and how is is nearly impossible to be 100% sure what youre seeing is real anymore#how we literally watch wars through our phone on tiktok and how people are forced to beg for money using any avenue they can online#everyone has become numb to the bombs and the crying children on our screens bc it is in front of us every day but we are so far removed irl#idk i have a lot of thoughts about the current state of humanity in the western world and none of it is particularly good#and it really is those damn phones ya know#shower thoughts#personal#rambling

The canon ages for the AI gang is insane. In eldest to youngest:
A5T3R (7-10 years) GLITCHWAVE (1-2 years) Lumina (3 months (and counting)) Help3r (~1 month) (His birthday is July 1st, 2024, I believe? Speculation on my part.) X4v13r's age is unknown, so I haven't included them in this list.
Source for GLITCHWAVE and Lumina - I asked Zachary out of character for Glitch's, and I know Lumina's
Source for A5T3R - Said outright '7-10 years old'
Source for Help3r - If Help3r was created for only a few days before he was given away to Vox, and he was given to Vox around July 5th or July 6th (irl time), then that would place his birthday somewhere in very early July or really late June.
This is so interesting to me. If you look in ways of how the AIs speak/express themselves, Lumina and Help3r are the most similar (and have the closest age difference). Lumina still sticks pretty close to their programming. It seems this is the same case for Help3r, who remains as a general assistant.
This makes me speculate: What if the tell of an AI's age is their level of self-expression?
#Sticking to your original purpose is a sign of being YOUNG when it comes to a sentient AI#character post#Lumina.exe#GLITCHWAVE.EXE#Help3r.exe#A5T3R#AI Gang#Hear me out#Lumina and Help3r developing themselves#Becoming more expressive and unique#Then looking back on their past/early selves and cringing at how 'young' they were.#Or at least Lumina#I might be projecting my own thoughts onto Help3r a bit too much#carmyn rambles#author's note

he’s on the right path for the wrong reason?
more like the wrong path for the right logic
#liek i guess i agree with what he says re: the path of ai but i do not think that the way ai is being utilized right now is the way it#should follow but that's not like A Truth but like obviously a very biased opinion#based in how i feel about art and creation. like of course jobs will continue being automated and his point about#basic income necessary as those jobs become automated is something i agree with#but there's more to just advancement of science behind ai because it is part of a market. what people dont understand#is that most of the time the point of ai is to improve comfort because comfort is the best thing to sell#in the neoliberalism system The first people that are fucked are the people without that financial support#that are getting taken away creative rights. so its not considering how corporations work#because they have a very positive view of how science develops#star anons

Disabled people using tools to help them just to survive daily life?
“That’s so lazy and unnecessary, even though it’s not for me and they only impact the individuals using it”
Able bodied people using AI to perform tasks that should not be done by AI?
“Necessary, and we’re gonna ignore the negative effects it has on the world”
Someone please, I feel like I’m losing my mind
“A pop can tab opener? Who needs that?”
It’s not for you.
“Why would anyone get a hairdryer holder, just use your hands to hold it.”
It’s not for you.
“Portable collapsible stools are proof of how lazy this generation is getting.”
It’s not for you.
“A chord assist for a guitar? Why don’t people just use their fingers like everyone else?”
IT’S NOT FOR YOU.
Fun fact! Not everything is about or for you!
#i hate it here#I literally feel like I’m losing my mind#it makes me feel ill#I’m going insane#I promise I know there’s good uses of AI I don’t want to hear about it#I work in IT tech help#it doesn’t justify the impacts on the world#and it doesn’t justify how mindless people and future generations are going to become#because of the lack of regulations and care for the world#why do people use their powers for evil when you could be developing more tools for helping people#disabled#neurodivergent#chronic illness#physically disabled

Something I don't think we talk enough about in discussions surrounding AI is the loss of perseverance.
I have a friend who works in education and he told me about how he was working with a small group of HS students to develop a new school sports chant. This was a very daunting task for the group, in large part because many had learning disabilities related to reading and writing, so coming up with a catchy, hard-hitting, probably rhyming, poetry-esque piece of collaborative writing felt like something outside of their skill range. But it wasn't! I knew that, he knew that, and he worked damn hard to convince the kids of that too. Even if the end result was terrible (by someone else's standards), we knew they had it in them to complete the piece and feel super proud of their creation.
Fast-forward a few days and he reports back that yes they have a chant now... but it's 99% AI. It was made by Chat-GPT. Once the kids realized they could just ask the bot to do the hard thing for them - and do it "better" than they (supposedly) ever could - that's the only route they were willing to take. It was either use Chat-GPT or don't do it at all. And I was just so devastated to hear this because Jesus Christ, struggling is important. Of course most 14-18 year olds aren't going to see the merit of that, let alone understand why that process (attempting something new and challenging) is more valuable than the end result (a "good" chant), but as adults we all have a responsibility to coach them through that messy process. Except that's become damn near impossible with an Instantly Do The Thing app in everyone's pocket. Yes, AI is fucking awful because of plagiarism and misinformation and the environmental impact, but it's also keeping people - particularly young people - from developing perseverance. It's not just important that you learn to write your own stuff because of intellectual agency, but because writing is hard and it's crucial that you learn how to persevere through doing hard things.
Write a shitty poem. Write an essay where half the textual 'evidence' doesn't track. Write an awkward as fuck email with an equally embarrassing typo. Every time you do you're not just developing that particular skill, you're also learning that you did something badly and the world didn't end. You can get through things! You can get through challenging things! Not everything in life has to be perfect but you know what? You'll only improve at the challenging stuff if you do a whole lot of it badly first. The ability to say, "I didn't think I could do that but I did it anyway. It's not great, but I did it," is SO IMPORTANT for developing confidence across the board, not just in these specific tasks.
Idk I'm just really worried about kids having to grow up in a world where (for a variety of reasons beyond just AI) they're not given the chance to struggle through new and challenging things like we used to.

so like I said, I work in the tech industry, and it's been kind of fascinating watching whole new taboos develop at work around this genAI stuff. All we do is talk about genAI, everything is genAI now, "we have to win the AI race," blah blah blah, but nobody asks - you can't ask -
What's it for?
What's it for?
Why would anyone want this?
I sit in so many meetings and listen to genuinely very intelligent people talk until steam is rising off their skulls about genAI, and wonder how fast I'd get fired if I asked: do real people actually want this product, or are the only people excited about this technology the shareholders who want to see lines go up?
like you realize this is a bubble, right, guys? because nobody actually needs this? because it's not actually very good? normal people are excited by the novelty of it, and finance bro capitalists are wetting their shorts about it because they want to get rich quick off of the Next Big Thing In Tech, but the novelty will wear off and the bros will move on to something else and we'll just be left with billions and billions of dollars invested in technology that nobody wants.
and I don't say it, because I need my job. And I wonder how many other people sitting at the same table, in the same meeting, are also not saying it, because they need their jobs.
idk man it's just become a really weird environment.

Found out they used AI in Alien: Romulus to like, revive a dead actor. I somehow didn't notice it when I watched the movie or in the months after, so maybe I am stupid but that was really disappointing because it was a decent movie.
Read the tags if you want a fun little read about my opinion on AI use.
Edit: just rewatched some clips and it was not as good as I thought it was, AI use is still disappointing, not a great addition to the series, I will not watch it again.
#I do not fuck with AI in any capacity relating to art or academic work#it is so stupid and bad for people who are not rich and in power#and the environment!!!#like omg just do it yourself#if the result is bad then practice and get better!#like develop actual skills that will make the product mean something!!#but noo we just want things instantaneously#also maybe dont profit off of a dead person's likeness?#some of this was very targeted at my peers who use ai like yes stuff is hard but doing it is how you get better#if you grow to rely on ai for that you will not be able to grow and become better at that thing#also some of the ai use is for stupid stuff too like guys we do not need ai to make you a study guide or a practice test#or any form of self expression for that matter#like a. there are plenty of non ai resources that you can ask for like practice tests and questions already b. its probably not accurate#c. self-express yourself#i feel like it speaks for itself but omg#alien romulus#ai use#fuck ai

A new tool lets artists add invisible changes to the pixels in their art before they upload it online so that if it’s scraped into an AI training set, it can cause the resulting model to break in chaotic and unpredictable ways.
The tool, called Nightshade, is intended as a way to fight back against AI companies that use artists’ work to train their models without the creator’s permission. Using it to “poison” this training data could damage future iterations of image-generating AI models, such as DALL-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion, by rendering some of their outputs useless—dogs become cats, cars become cows, and so forth. MIT Technology Review got an exclusive preview of the research, which has been submitted for peer review at computer security conference Usenix.
AI companies such as OpenAI, Meta, Google, and Stability AI are facing a slew of lawsuits from artists who claim that their copyrighted material and personal information was scraped without consent or compensation. Ben Zhao, a professor at the University of Chicago, who led the team that created Nightshade, says the hope is that it will help tip the power balance back from AI companies towards artists, by creating a powerful deterrent against disrespecting artists’ copyright and intellectual property. Meta, Google, Stability AI, and OpenAI did not respond to MIT Technology Review’s request for comment on how they might respond.
Zhao’s team also developed Glaze, a tool that allows artists to “mask” their own personal style to prevent it from being scraped by AI companies. It works in a similar way to Nightshade: by changing the pixels of images in subtle ways that are invisible to the human eye but manipulate machine-learning models to interpret the image as something different from what it actually shows.
