Man… I probably would be able to crack String theory before I’d be able to learn Gimp

Can confirm

Idk why, but the Java guy looks so cute in the last panel.

Okay?

Edit: Wait, your first post from this account was this? Come on mate… Get a life

Yea, n I unintentionally fked it up here too for one such person. So I was discussing solutions for a problem that I had encountered with my project on Matrix. I didn’t know it then, but I was talking to a trans woman then. Now, I had a habit of “yessirrr”-ing when I was excited. So I found the solution, and in my excited state, I said “yessirrr” somewhere. She immediately corrected me by saying that it was “yes ma’am”. I apologized and explained the situation. I then looked at her bio, and it had the flag and all that. She unfortunately ghosted me after that incident :(.

So yeah… I’ve tried to have inclusive language n whatnot after that. Cuz uk… U never realise how heteronormative our language is and how not inclusive it is for many many people.

Hehe me too!

ERROR: Fuck you! What do you think, we’re Linux? How will we earn them monies without your data?

Yeah, just realized from reading other comments that I was doing this. I was clearly uninformed. Sorry 😓

Yeahhhh… As another commentator said, I was redefining AI, when it had been defined decades ago… Whoops 😓

Also, thanks for linking Expert Systems! I clearly have a lot of interesting stuff to learn about in AI.

Oh, was not aware of this… (It’s also embarrassing considering that I’m a CS student. We haven’t reached the AI credits yet, but still…). Anyway, thank you for the info! And yeah, the buzzwords part does indeed suck! Whenever I tried to learn more about the topic, I was indeed bombarded by the Elon Musk techbro spam on YouTube. But whatever, I don’t have THAT long to get to these credits. Sooo wish me luck ;)

An intelligent system is a system that autonomously gathers information accessible to it, learns how to use this information to achieve its terminal goal and uses this skill. Does your prolog “AI” fit this description? Does it “write” its own logic? If yes, then it is intelligent. If no, then it is no different than some random non intelligent computer program.

Sure, but learning and training is still a component, no? If something cannot learn how to solve problems autonomously, how is it intelligent?

AI IS NOT IF ELSE STATEMENTS. AI learns and adapts to its surroundings by learning. It stored this learnt data into “weights” in accordance with its stated goal. This is what “intelligence” refers to.

Edit: I was wrong lmao. As the commentators below pointed out, “AI” in the context of computer science is a term that has been defined in the industry long before. Where I went wrong was in taking the definition of “intelligence” and slapping “artificial” before it. Therefore while the literal definition might be similar to mine, it is different in CS. Also, @blotz@lemmy.world even provided something called “Expert Systems”, which are a subset of AI that use if-then statements. Soooo yeah… My point doesn’t stand.

Ads are annoying and can be privacy intrusive depending upon the ad network. However, do u have a better funding model in mind to keep these open sourced alternatives up and running?

Donation based models don’t rlly work that well. Restricting stuff behind a paywall is an option, but ethically a little icky one. Ads are the best in these cases, right?
