What issues do you have with this tool specifically? It sounds pretty helpful for locating specific info in large PDFs.

ChatPDF allows users to search, summarize, and answer questions about PDFs by using natural language queries. This innovative approach to interacting with PDFs simplifies the process of searching for information, reducing the time and effort required to extract relevant data from a document.

Suno is a bit more active (just because it’s been around longer) and there are some hilarious songs there too. I Glued My Balls to My Butthole is one of my favorites.

I feel exactly the same way. I can now be creative in ways I couldn’t before. Sometimes I’ll use my own lyrics, sometimes I’ll use ChatGPT to write lyrics and I’ll edit. It’s really fun to play with the same lyrics in different genres too.

No worries, I just wanted to share a couple cool AI tools. Figured this sub was as good as any to post about Suno and Udio in.

I thought so too. It’s really fun to mess around with as someone who isn’t very musically inclined. I did a quick search on Lemmy and was surprised to see neither has really been posted about.

You’re right, SATA isn’t going anywhere for a very long time. If you have a need for 4+ TB of total storage there is nothing at all wrong using HDDs or 2.5" SSDs.

I stand corrected. There is literally no functional difference between “currency” and (at least some) crypto.

You literally just defined the attributes of a currency. The only difference is that crypto isn’t backed by a government.

Edited. See below. Apparently some crypto is government backed. There is no functional difference between traditional currency and (at least some) crypto.

“A police state keeps everyone safe”

…

“No wait, not like that”

The people most likely to be abused by police are the least likely to be able or willing to file a formal complaint.

It’s a high crime neighborhood because criminals live there. Or more precisely, because it’s a poor, gang infested neighborhood.

What you’ve said makes no sense. There are high crime neighborhoods like this all over the country independently of what Google maps does. There are also neighborhoods full of tourists that aren’t high crime areas.

Particular conditions, in this particular neighborhood, lead to these particular crimes occurring.

Did you reply to the wrong comment? I don’t think my comment is really related the points you’ve brought up.

I guess my comment was a bit vague. China is certainly currently interfering with our systems on a smaller scale. I was referring to a large scale, widespread cyber attack as described in the article.

It’s highly likely China is capable of of that sort of attack. But I don’t see how we’re more at risk of that happening now than any other military action.

Another commenter described it well as another theater of a potential war, not necessarily that a war is imminent at this point

That’s what it seems like to me. I don’t see China executing a cyber attack without being willing and able to follow up with military action. Preparation, as you said.

Tensions don’t seem high enough currently for that to be the case, but perhaps someday they will be. At that point we’d be facing an all out war.

I understand that the US is likely vulnerable to cyber attack, but is a widespread attack by China likely in the immediate future?

I mean, let’s say China does disable infrastructure, banking, etc in a coordinated and widespread attack. But then what? An attack on that scale is an act of war, and I doubt China would be willing to follow up with military action at this time.

Perhaps this is more of a preventive MAD type strategy? Essentially a warning to the US to not mess with China, or else these are the consequences.

It’s not the exact same way, but it’s still essentially the same outcome. Your pitching machine example doesn’t make sense because AI doesn’t do anything with pinpoint control.

This objection is similar to saying photography isn’t an art form; all you do is point and press a button. In reality there is a lot more to it than that.

What anti-poaching laws? At most this would violate non-compete clauses that may exist, but those generally aren’t enforceable anyways.

If you want to talk about water treatment capacity, then sure. Treatment capacity is used for cooling.

That’s not what I’m talking about though. I’m talking about the mass of water being consumed (i.e., removed) from the watershed. The water removed from the river for cooling is returned. There is no net loss of water.

Not really. At least not in the sense that it’s a net loss of water downstream.

It’s not like irrigation or bottling, where water is entirely removed from the system and not returned.

Pretty much, unfortunately.

Nobody wants to talk about all the wind energy used to run these data centers either, because that won’t generate any outrage.
