Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Just a thought.... All this AI talks recently, I can't help but be reminded about the usage of AI to steer a discussion through sliding and whatever tactics to get it derailed and such. Something about snow white and the seven dwarves.
Sorry, all of that is something I try to remember on top of my head. But point is, I can't help but notice how AI generated media (including texts) is now becoming mainstream when CIA supposedly been using it for quite a while.
What scares me is how accurate some of these AI voice generators can replicate anyone. Trump, Biden, Obama... It could lead to some odd deep fakes in general and the normies will probably buy it.
Me too!
Hadn't really been paying attention to it, then yesterday was watching a twitch stream where the streamer had a variety of those AI TTS voices enabled.
It wasn't like I was literally listening to Biden, Trump, Obama, etc... But for a (I assume) freely available twitch plugin it was close enough to get a Utility Player position on Saturday Night Live.
I imagine even during the VHS / early digital era when we can assume the Epstein blackmail was in full gear, the deep fakes were in the mix.
Just had a flashback to the 1986 film F/X. Haven't seen it. Seems relevant.
Slow coffee morning here. ☕😑
It is pretty easy to tell its AI, for now at least. I feel like this is just the citizens version of the software and in a few years, its going to be far more advanced and easier to manipulate the public. Freaky stuff. Who knows if they already have the better stuff just waiting for the right time to use it.
