An application for a typewriter? No, nobody can think of that because that hasn't existed for decades now.

I need some ribbon to save game before I die!

“Can you tell me about the chamber of secrets?”

No.

But I can show you

You made me wanna go back and try Person of interest again. I felt it was too many standalone episodes in season 1 that didn’t interest me enough.

Fringe is also amazing. Love parallel reality storylines.

It's not a matter of performance. My SD can virtually all AAA games on Steam with reasonable frame rates. It's a matter of ergonomics, physical comfort, mood, and minset when I'm with the Deck vs with my gaming PC or gaming laptop. On my battlestation with a 32" 1440p 144hz monitor, it's "overkill" to run many of the indie games I want to play, not to mention not nearly as comfortable if I were to sit in front of my gaming chair instead of laying in bed or on my couch. Also, when on my computer, I'm always on Discord and I run a Discord server with 100+ people in it from all around the world. This incenticizes me to play multiplayer games with them and further demotivates me to launch a single-player or indie game.

On the SD, it creates an environment where I naturally seek to launch single-player, indie, story-focused, and relatively casual games that I can almost isolate myself and unwind with a good story in the palms of my hands. The SD allows me to extend my gaming to several parts of the house and world I've never played PC games in before. I've tried gaming laptops in bed via many methods and they are not comfortable. This is where SD really found its niche IMO.

In this video a guy managed to do it by asking ChatGPT to produce a melody in the form of a tuple expressing pitch and duration. Then he played it using Python and a library called Scamp. It's a pretty cool workaround to not being able to express music notes directly but I don't think it'll be winning any Grammy's soon.

So basically it’s the case that it’s not powerful enough to run those well, or not comfortable enough?

Hella homies.

Why would anybody want this

it can write code too

Lies, it’s just your average horcrux

Procedural shows that go off the rails: Fringe and Person of Interest. Both were fantastic as fuck.

I have an MA in Talmud and I used Google Lens to OCR old blurry books all the time so I could format them. It's incredible.

Teletype is old tech. Chat bots are old tech (though still improving). Mechanically moving keyboards that registers its own typing as a human user is old tech (word processors). This is just an artistic and nostalgic amalgamation of blending old tech with modern innovations. I was chatting with Eliza on a Macintosh LC in 1986. The only differences are that the keys don’t physically move when Eliza produces output and the chatbot is much more refined and versatile.

It is text only, I just tried haha. It'll tell you where to place a beat but can't output a file. If it was connected to another sub Ai that could do it, perhaps

100%. I have no doubt that it's going to be a shitshow that we're not even close to being ready for. But hey, that's the spice of life right? haha.. ha 😅

Well said. Anyone who is familiar with the history of chat bots can plainly see we're still nowhere near "artificial intelligence" in the high-level sense of the term, but it's becoming very interesting just how much a bunch of math and datasets can create a readable piece of text.

I almost wish we could like… Halt the progress here haha. This is going to be massively disruptive and we need time to accommodate but I know the progression of technology waits for no one so guess we’ll just have to deal with it as it comes.

"I think every world is magic, we just get used to it."

From Stephen King's new book "Fairy Tale."

Not just schools. Not just ChatGPT, but AI in general is moving at a breakneck pace. I think the next 5-10 years will absolutely be disrupted by these new tools.

I was able to use it to generate some very simple LaTeX documents, like a resume template. It's so fucking awesome

Look into Riffusion if you haven't already.
