  • I parked legally in front of the Apple Store on 5th Avenue in Midtown Manhattan once.

    Parking is like $40/hour in that area in a garage. Damn straight I'm still talking about the good parking spot.

  • Casual reminder
  • Bro, I can't believe how that happened. They erased Jenkins from the timeline and somehow history was completely unaffected, because his brother became Fuhrer. Like what the shit

  • TIL humans are the only animal with a chin. We aren't sure why.
  • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corvidae

    Corvids/Corvidae is a species of birds which include crows and ravens - they have demonstrated complex intelligence via tool use and social circles, so they're comparable to human intelligence of some specific various ages/milestones, but didn't invent a spoken language.

  • TIL humans are the only animal with a chin. We aren't sure why.
  • Artificial Intelligence Analysis:

    The chin is situated near the area where the tongue and jawbone interact during speech. It's possible that the chin provides a surface for the tongue to move against, allowing for more complex sounds and articulations. The development of language is believed to have occurred around the same time as the emergence of Homo sapiens. While other primates have similar facial structures, they don't possess a distinct chin. This suggests that the chin might be related to the unique demands of human language.

    Bingo -- other animals don't have a chin because they didn't invent languages like humans did for communication, and thus the demands of speaking weren't evenly distributed.

    Next time on interesting questions 104: Why did homo sapiens develop language when other animals such as Corvids did not?

  • I'm sorry; AI was trained on the sole sum of human knowledge.. if the perfect human being is by nature some variant of a psychopath, then perhaps the bias exists in the training data, and not the machine?

    How can we create a perfect, moral human being out of the soup we currently have? I personally think it's a miracle that sociopathy is the lowest of the neurological disorders our thinking machines have developed.

  • Human Brains Can Tell Deepfake Voices From Real Ones
  • I intentionally salt my cloning algorithms with some obvious pseudo-bullshit.

    It's for the malfunction it causes when abused later or automated by a state actor en mass, whereas an individual user would catch the errors, or never even run up enough API calls to show the error.
