not exactly what you're aiming at with your comment but, sort of adjacent, maybe relevant:

and it's so low effort too. like they never try dragging their instruments across the bows. where has all the creativity gone now that we have these "official protocols" of performance and musical quality!

I know this is perhaps a bit tongue-in-cheek but it's still astounding just how suspiciously accurate the implied parallel here is... lol

as someone who extensively uses generative AI in my creative process, I personally have not found any reliable tells in my output to distinguish it from traditionally produced music, with the exception of when suno goes off the rails and just generates a 7:59 piece that is just randomly averaging across latent space. but even that sounds less like AI generated slop and more like a plunderphonics adjacent sound collage.

now granted: I don't use AI to write my lyrics (with the exception of pieces framed as involving AI, eg. rap battles against AI), and furthermore beyond that, I also use my own musical productions from the past as audio uploads alongside my lyrics and my prompting strategy, so by definition I'd say my output is inherently going to be exploring sonic space that is not typically explored by most users, and as such if I am using my own output as the mechanism by which I'm evaluating this argument, then naturally it's probably going to be understandable as to why I find it so difficult to distinguish between AI and organic human effort.

but either way. I've had people express some level of intrigue at the level of variation and such present in my output artifacts, which to me suggests that this might be a relevant dimension within which to evaluate this specific character or quality of music as machine generated or human generated...

just some (admittedly not super well structured) thoughts it occurred to me to share.

that's Abagnale, I believe.

this is, legitimately and without any exaggeration whatsoever, almost exactly how nearly everyone I speak to IRL as a homeless individual interacts with me. There are a few here and there that absolutely do make an attempt to have real discourse and actually discuss in context, but by an overwhelming majority, most of them just take the (to borrow from a response) SLM approach.

life is exhausting sometimes

just for the sake of conversation…

if you did, where would you have set them up at anyway? Asking for a friend

How can one apply a rule more than universally? Wouldn’t too universally be the same thing as just universally? put differently, how can you do something MORE universally than universally?

asking for a friend

i know a good engraver.

Brendon Small voices the main character. H Jon Benjamin is one of the supporting characters (coach McGuirk)

another reason, namely the reason that I specifically do not use wireless headphones:

due to the nature of wireless communications, real time audio is effectively impossible and as such there is almost always some amount of noticeable latency when performing tasks that rely on real time audio (eg music production). a little of latency is okay sometimes but the amount that wireless devices introduce is typically on the offer of maybe 100-200ms and when you're trying to play a section or some such it makes it damn near impossible to hit a note on the mark you're aiming for.

go on...

i've always heard it said as PED-er-NAL-iss

other honorable mentions: puyallup, washington (PYOO-al-ip) koenig ln, austin, tx (KAY-nig) - though admittedly this one is likely originally german König, and what texan is going to pronounce German words like Germans? aqui bleiben wir with Stolz, y'all

don't forget the manchaca (now menchaca as it should have been the whole time!) being said as "man-CHAK".

that or the one from the other major city, good ol kuykendahl aka "kir-KEN-doll"

I have issues with seeing this as word salad, simply because in most instances that term is used to describe utterances that are entirely nonsensically, linguistic content so utterly absteuse that one has no hope of deriving any sort of meaning from it other rnsn, well, it's just a bunch of words tossed together. having read the description of the project, as well as several comments here on HN, I personally don't understand how someone might read that and somehow take away nothing from it in understanding. I feel like it is written fairly clearly and effectively, but ofc that's just me and as with all things, YMMV.

anecdata: for my entire life, I have neber, until about 3 weeks ago, owned a laptop with any type of gpu other than an integrated graphics card built into the motherboard. for most of my life in fact I have never really had any modern or really serviceable hardware, as I've basically inherited all of my compute devices secondhand never had the money to just go out and buy a decent rig (or to even put one together for the matter, perhaps tbst will elucidate the economic sector which I have basic y always occupied. well, not always, as now that I'm homeless, I somehow went even LOWER! )

though it truly does excite me that I finally have something with some type of GeForce branded x graphics device inside of it, now I can finally run local machine learning tasks and not have to cloud it out

ziguana makes sense but man i can't help but think it's a missed opportunity for ziggurat

i believe you've misinterpreted the meaning of the word progressive here to refer to political progressives, rather than simply just "gradual/ongoing" which is what the use of it here suggests to me personally

I believe the song you are referring to is "Fuck the MPAA" by Futuristic Sex Robotz

i find that it’s actually fairly common for people to have accumulated several loose and random cables over time. even my mother, who is not particularly a technologically inclined individual, still had several hdmi cables and different usb cables. every single device (not just phones but things like flashlights, wireless accessories, fans, etc…) people buy that needs to be charged generally comes with a charging cable, and there are ever more usb chargeable devices coming on the market nowadays.

hell, even homeless people such as myself tend to have giant collections of random cables, even when they don’t actually have anything that requires charging.

Universal Paperclips is one of those true gems and in my opinion one of the standout examples within the incremental genre of what a game can really be. also good incrementals: a dark room, SPACEPLAN, kittens game, and trimps. with the exception of SPACEPLAN, all of these games have always been greatly enjoyable despite feeling like the worst type of work that one could be doing. i find it odd that I'm willing to do that sort of resource allocation and microoptimization thing almost endlessly for free, but the idea of doing it in meatspace for pay seems almost intolerable.

seconding what baash05 said, want help? this sounds like a really neat project and I'm honestly better with helping other people's ideas come to fruition than I am starting my own.

nb: i am homeless so my availability is somewhat sporadic since it's dependent on when I can charge my phone and such. but I got a laptop hiding out somewhere I just never use it out on the streets because it's a battery addict and drains that like an alcoholic does whiskey. also it's a 2006 dell xps m1701 so it's actually just a hefty beast.

but yeah. let me know if interested as well. email in bio etc

stupidity is just misapplied or developing intelligence. can't have one without the other lol

came here for this, seemed the most natural pronunciation

capture name {} is a thing it listed

the act of coming up with hypotheses and then testing them is kinda how knowledge is generated, though. and often it can be effectively done by people who aren't thoroughly knowledgeable in a subject, especially as a means to becoming such

After acute exposure, cannabis induces dose-dependent tachycardia and, in some cases, decreased ventricular contractility, palpitations, atrial fibrillation and arrhythmia

i feel like this is saying what a lot of us already know about cannabis usage, more specifically about THC as this won't be found as much in low THC strains: higher doses have a tendency to cause anxiety sometimes. all of those symptoms tend to be, at least in my experience, pretty comorbid with a state of high anxiety, and more often than not, I would think, the more easily observable ones than the neurological or psychological effects associated therewith.

i would personally recommend trying something like idra-21, I've found there aren't many chemicals more useful than it for lubricating the joints so to speak, and considering it has a very small dose and a fairly long half life, it's fairly easy to a regimen around it that has legs and keeps going, and I find it doesn't necessarily come with any horrendously negative side effects. none that I have consistently experienced either

I also personally recommend memantine, but that's because it helps me clear out the brain fog and anxiety that normally keeps me from doing basically anything successfully, and it has the same benefit of small dose, MASSIVE half life (60+ hours), and a proven track record of facilitating improved cognitive functioning
