  • What would you consider to be a “physical”?

    The comparison about countries is hard to understand because I’m not sure of what constitutes as one or another.

    Where I live I can walk in on a public hospital and see a doctor within two hours if I don’t have any risk that would give me priority. Then if the doctor asks for an exam or x-ray or something, it might be done shortly after on the same hospital if there’s some time concern, or they may just request you to do the exam and then you can go after it yourself. In this case getting it for free can take quite some time, so there’s several private clinics that people go to only for exams - they can sometimes do it within one or two days, other times it takes longer.

    However if you need surgery or something more advanced, you may end up dying on a waiting list if the doctors don’t properly detect how much of a risk you’re at. I don’t have any personal experience with this part of the Healthcare system though so I’m only saying this based on stories I’ve heard and from some news coverage I’ve seen in the past.







  • I mean, if someone creates a game with all the options there and you just use AI as a replacement for a complex UI, it could kinda work. A game like scribblenauts could theorically implement an AI based stage creation option with the current tech already. The problem with that is that the AI wouldn’t be able to guarantee that the stage has a proper challenge level (or even that is possible to complete it), so it would also need to implement an AI that tries to beat the level as well and then keep iterating over the two until a proper stage is found.

    In short: doable, for very niche cases and probably taking a very long time to complete a prompt (possibly hours).



  • If a tool were created that properly converted an UML diagram into a project without any need for code, all the programmers that lost their job to this tool would then be hired by the company that offered it, in order to give maintenance and support to everything the customers want in their programs.

    It would be removing programmers from they payroll of some companies but they would still be working for them, just further down in the chain.

    The same is true for AI. If AI could completely replace programmers in some area, it would need a lot of programmers itself to keep dealing with all the edge cases that would show up from being used everywhere that a programmer was needed before.


  • I believed they maybe weren’t listening because those cases that people claim as “proof” of listening can usually be explained in other ways as well. People tend to assume they were listening because its the easier explanation but with the amount of data that Meta has, they can easily lead people into thinking about things by showing specific posts on the Facebook timeline and also predict to some extent what people may end up talking about based on things like how many times you replay a certain video and how long did you keep certain posts in focus on the screen and that sort of stuff that people often don’t realize is also data for them.

    Still, I would never put my hand on fire for them and never completely discarded the possibility of them listening.



  • With all the information that Google knows about us and everything, they could in theory be doing a great job suggesting things that would be great for us - for example showing me a product or service I don’t know exists which would help me with some problem I may be having.

    Google pretends that it’s what they do - showing the best possible ads for us. But what they do is the complete opposite, they find the best possible users to show their ads to. They have a responsibility to the ad, not to the user.

    Everytime this shows up I wonder if this is really a male nipple or if the creator used a female one just for extra laughs. If it was a serious thing that people actually did it would be hilarious if they were replacing one female nipple for another.

    Somehow also reminds me of a story about a singer’s album cover released during the latest military dictatorship in Brazil (it was a heavily censored period). Folks went out of their way photographing a woman’s asshole with a marble ball on it until they managed to get one that looked like an eye - then used that picture as the album cover.
