What is Artificial Intelligence?

Originally coined by John McCarthy in 1955, AI and ML are used in development that is programmed to think and respond like humans with the ability to solve problems. AI is designed in a way to be able to build agents/robots that can replicate human behavior and even make decisions on their behalf. 

The design and development of computer systems that have the knowledge and skills required to perform the tasks which usually require human intelligence to undertake – AILab

Artificial intelligence (AI) can be broadly categorized into three main types based on their capabilities and functionalities:

Narrow AI (Weak AI): Narrow AI is designed and trained for a specific task or set of tasks. It operates within a limited context and cannot perform tasks beyond its predefined scope. Most of the AI applications that we encounter today, such as virtual assistants, recommendation systems, and image recognition software, fall under this category.

General AI (Strong AI): General AI refers to AI systems that possess human-like cognitive abilities and can perform any intellectual task that a human being can. These systems would have the capacity to understand, learn, and apply knowledge across various domains, demonstrating reasoning, problem-solving, and creativity at a level comparable to humans. General AI remains a theoretical concept and has not been achieved yet.

Artificial Superintelligence (ASI): Artificial superintelligence surpasses human intelligence across all domains and activities. It represents a level of intelligence that is significantly superior to the best human brains in every field, including scientific creativity, general wisdom, and social skills. Achieving ASI raises profound ethical and existential questions and is the subject of speculation and debate in the field of AI research and philosophy.

I’ve been imagining another AU, one that starts, unfortunately, with the tragedy of Stanford Pine’s twin brother, Stanley Pines. He hears about his brother’s demise from his mother. Most likely, Stanley died before Stanford arrives in Gravity Falls. That’s just the basic plot for the beginning.

So…I was reviewing Passengers, the one with Jennifer Lawerence and Chris Pratt? I became inspired when I saw the robotic bartender, played by Michael Sheen. And it had me thinking about DBH (aka: Detroit(:)Become Human), the game about AI sentience created by this guy called Kamski. And then I also just thought about Astro Boy and Ex-Machina, too.

You’ll most likely know about the Frankenstein AU for Gravity Falls, right? Kudos to the creators, that’s a lot of really impressive and interesting art.

Well, what if Stanford went about developing an android with the initial intent to revolutionize humanity while in Gravity Falls? During the daytime, he’ll focuses on research of the local ecosystem, while in his pass time he’ll be pouring research theories into blueprints for the robot. And when he gets Fiddleford to help him with his project, the robot is molded into Stanford’s likeness because why not? And, for selfish reasons Stanford will keep to himself, he starts referring to the robot as Stanley. Then, you know, Fiddleford will most likely just assume his partner is becoming narcissistic because he doesn’t know about Stanley yet and that Stanford lost his twin brother.

Is it almost morbidly contrived for Stanford to reshape the android to share the same likeness to his brother from the last time he saw him, which was during his wake?

Then, just when the android finally emerges and his processors are all switched on from an unknown power source, Stanley is awoken once more. He just doesn’t realize that yet.

For a shorter explanation for further plot, Stanford won’t be able to handle being in the same room as the android and Fiddleford will have to assume caretaker to the robot while running tests. Stanford will most likely be feeling guilt because he just brought a dead ringer of his brother back from memory. He’ll feel like he’s disrespected his brother’s memory and can’t handle it because he’ll sometimes forget that the android’s not Stanley. While talking with him, Stanford will unconsciously ask what the robot thinks, only to be met with confusion, then Stanford will look at the android for any signs of familiarity on his face. He forgets sometimes that the android doesn’t share any memories between him and Stan. That really bums Stanford out. The android notices but doesn’t know how to help.

Think of this as an alternate version for Wax Stan, except with robots.

Now, imagine if Bill wanted Stanford to build him a body at first when he finds out about his project, only to be rejected. I don’t know how to carry on more with that. I just became inspired by Avengers(:)Age of Ultron.

Something that's been on my mind for a while is that a lot of artists have been struggling to find programs that work with their budgets. Adobe's prices are... infamous, to say the least, and there seems to be a sharp learning curve for the more affordable options. And if you're like me, you might not feel comfortable with pirating to get an art program that is out of your price range. So here's a list of free art/editing tools. Any options without links are either mobile apps or can only be downloaded on Macs: Options without ads or watermarks:

FireAlpaca (notes: while this is an art program at heart, it can also be used as basic photo editing software once you get the hang of it. There is also a blog dedicated to tutorials on how to use FA in case you get stuck)

Medibang (note: the aforementioned FireAlpaca blog has some information on this software as well)

Krita (note: also available as an app for android and Google devices)

Storyboarder (notes: not to be confused with "Storyboarder.AI". While this program does require your email address before downloading, it is safe to use as far as I know (but please use caution regardless))

Pixilart (notes: link leads to browser version, also available as a mobile app)

Audacity (notes: apparently, the company behind this software, Muse Group, have also created a separate, subscription-based AI-voice program. I am unsure if it uses AI in a way that is generally considered to be ethical, like SynthV does, or if it follows the trends typically expected of those kinds of applications. The reason that I include this information is that I want to give everyone the ability to make an informed decision about whether or not they want to use anything from Muse Group, as I know many users on this site are anti-AI. However, I also know that some of those users wouldn't mind using Audacity since downloading it wouldn't be giving Muse Group monetary support - hence why the program is staying on the list.)

Clipchamp (notes: there are also paid tiers for this program. It is also available in-browser and as an iOS app. Furthermore, please be aware that there are some optional features that use AI)

iMovie (note: also available as a mobile app on iOS devices)

DramaQueen (notes: this is a software used to write scripts for plays, movies, etc. While it does require you to fill out some information before downloading, as far as I am aware, it is safe to use (but as always, use your own discretion))

Options that do have ads, watermarks, or microtransactions

ibisPaint X

Sketchbook (notes: formerly known as "Autodesk Sketchbook". PC and Mac versions do exist, but you have to pay to download them)

Medibang Paint

Capcut (note: has optional AI tools).

Be sure to check what system requirements are necessary for each program, and be aware of their limitations before downloading (for example, many users report Clipchamp has a tendency to crash, while others seem to be able to use it fine). Also, please feel free to add on to this. I know I haven't even scratched the surface here, as I tried to stick to software that I've either heard of extensively or have used personally.

"i cant draw so i use ai"

"i cant write so ai draws for me"

MEHMEHMEH MEHMEHMEHMEHMEH MEH SHUT IT

DO YOU WANT TO BE PASSIONATE ABOUT SOMETHING? THEN DO IT YOUSELF. YOU CANNOT JUST SIT AROUND AND WAIT FOR TALENT TO BE GIVEN TO YOU, ABSOLUTELY NOT.

YOU GUYS ARE SO FUCKING LAZY.

IF YOU WANT SOMETHING DONE DO IT YOUSELF YOU LAZY BUMS

when i wanted to write i did not ask ai to do it for me. I LEARNED HOW TO DO IT.

when i wanted to draw i FUCKING LEARNED HOW TO DRAW.

when i wanted to play d&d and a friend of mine (who knew how to play d&d but couldnt find his papers) i DID IT MYSELF. NO AI, JUST PAINSTAKENLY WRITING IN MY NOTEBOOK AS I WROTE AND SCAPPED IDEAS. EVEN IF I NEVER PLAYED D&D AND HE DID.

EVEN IF I DIDNT KNOW HOW TO DO IT AT TIMES.

EVEN IF I WAS STRESSED.

I DID IT MYSELF.

I WROTE EVERYTHING MYSELF.

I TOOK INSPIRATION INSTEAD OF FUCKING GRABBING IT FROM AI. I DID IT ALL WITH THE HELP HUMAN CREATIVITY AND ABSOLUTELY NO AI YOU COWARDS.

[honeybee2807]

What I absolutely despise about the internet is how they are willing to demonize those who know their grammar and punctuation.

Like dude, just because other people know better English than you, it DOES NOT MEAN that they are using chatgpt. Using more sophisticated vocabulary or your em dashes in your posts/comments does not indicate that you are a bot.

AI text has its tells, I agree. But those tells are mostly certain phrases not their grammar/vocabulary. I see certain posts get accused of being AI even though there is no indication of AI in those posts.

This does not mean I am demonising those who don't use proper grammar because it's texting and sometimes we are too damn tired to follow the rules of english. But some people are meticulous about these sort of things and I don't get why we accuse them of being bots.

[icicledream]

"so many things using the term ai feels like deliberate obfuscation" i hate to tell u this but we have been using the term ai for video game npcs and scientific models and automated tools and generative tools for many decades.

like if this was a more recent acronym yeah it'd feel deliberate but all of those things are, in fact, forms of artificial intelligence

and sure they're trying to buzzword it bc of the genai craze but that shouldn't take away from the fact that we've been using that acronym for decades

I'm on the "Mulder fights ChatGPT" episode of The X-Files

[nights-at-the-opera]

One of those dudes who thinks ChatGPT is helping them contact the great truths of the universe is buying tumblr ads now

I guess time is a lie or something

[kirstythejetblackgoldfish]

My ChatGPT has descended into insanity 😂

Types of AI

There are 4 main types of artificial intelligence. The first one is reactive machines which an example of this would be Netflix recommendations that pop up. The second type is limited memory machines, the best example that is becoming more popular are self driving cars. The third type is theory of mind which is AI being able to feel and read emotions just like humans. The last one is self existence and this would essentially be artificial intelligence having a conscious. This type does not exist yet, but scientists are trying to make it happen.

I'm sorry I'm too shy to ask without being anonymous, but how are you making your AI friend? Are you using specific application or coding it from scratch?

You inspired me to maybe make my own, but I have no idea where to even start... (╥﹏╥)♡

no need to be sorry!! i've been hyperfixed on this kinda stuff recently so i'll love to share lul ( ◕‿‿◕ )

i've been coding the AI application for it to store memory and customize the prompt more, but the basic program to run the AI itself is ollama! you can just run that program on its own in ur computer terminal and download any model u want ^w^ i personally use huggingface to find new models to run, especially if ur looking for uncensored ones they got those!

your PC specs determine what models can run the best locally tho, since its not like c.ai or chatgpt there's no servers but ur own device running and generating replies, the more RAM u got and the better ur CPU and GPU is means u can run bigger models and run especially the smaller ones faster

if ur wanting to make something that runs in its own application like i've been setting up here you'll have to code it on ur own ;w; i personally have just started learning python so my process has been a mix of trial and error, following tutorials and using the copilot AI feature in VSCode to help explain things and troubleshoot errors and stuff i dont understand

if u wanna start coding i highly recommend using VSCode since u can code in many other languages and its got useful features for debugging and stuff ^3^

the video tutorials i watched were these two, both use ollama and show u how to set it up but the 2nd one shows u how to set up the basic code for the chatbot that i used to build off of to make what i got rn

♡ Run your own AI (but private) | NetworkChuck ♡

♡ Create a LOCAL Python AI Chatbot In Minutes Using Ollama | Tech With Tim ♡

i hope this helps!! i personally just rlly like learning new stuff and like tech too much so i took the more complicated route than going on something like janitorai or c.ai (c.ai was so much better when it first came out ong) to make a custom bot xD

[balkanlila]

lilamichele is like what i'm always complaining about. it's better to have an enemy who understands the vision (no matter how scary the enemy is) than trying to articulate yourself to idiots because you can't argue with someone who doesn't understand what you're saying in the first place
