Last Notes npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar A case of turning tables... https://petapixel.com/2024/06/12/photographer-disqualified-from-ai-image-contest-after-winning-with-real-photo/ #AI #photography npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar Yeah, the ad was really tone deaf. 😒 https://www.theverge.com/2024/5/8/24152236/apple-ipad-pro-commercial-artists-ai #Apple #ipad #ipadPro #ipadProM4 npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar I love geeky videos like this! https://youtu.be/JheGL6uSF-4 #Wikipedia #GraphTheory #WikipediaRace npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar @npub1tem…hcz5 of course you already know that this doesn't mean we can be complacent. npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar Can I ask a favor from my followers? Please do the following steps and reply back with the results: 1. Go to this Image page on Commons: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:San_Isidro_Town_Plaza_(Nueva_Ecija)_21.jpg 2. On the line immediately below the image, click on either the “180 × 240 pixels” or “360 × 480 pixels” link, then observe the resulting image 3. Next, click on either the “1,536 × 2,048 pixels” or “3,888 × 5,184 pixels” link, then observe the resulting image 4. Do the images in step 2 and 3 look the same (just different sizes)? npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar I'm more partial to #trance music but good on the German government for recognizing more recent aspects of culture as part of Germany's valuable intangible cultural heritage! https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/15/berlins-techno-scene-added-to-unesco-intangible-cultural-heritage-list #EDM #CulturalHeritage #IntangibleCulturalHeritage #UNESCO npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar @npub106w…cln7 I hope companies like this fail sooner than later. npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar Happy π day! To celebrate, let's look back at this 127-year-old bill that was passed in the Indiana House of Representatives which attempted to legislate a wildly incorrect solution to the squaring a circle problem and thereby legalize an incorrect value of π. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_pi_bill #mathematics #math #maths #pi #PiDay npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar Sadly, this is kinda the new normal. https://www.wired.com/story/iowa-newspaper-website-ai-generated-clickbait-factory/ #GenerativeAI #FakeNews npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar I really don't understand what's the purpose of this ongoing wave of spam across the Fediverse. Most of the people here are hardly the type who would click on suspicious links. (The conspiratorial part of me wonders if this is a DDoS initiated by competing SNSs to overwhelm admins and moderators or prove that federation is problematic.) npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar The Sora announcement by OpenAI is kinda frightening/exciting and Marques does a really good job discussing the implications of this new technology. https://youtu.be/NXpdyAWLDas What's not discussed as much as well is the huge amounts of water and electricity that is required to run this tech. #OpenAI #Sora #GenerativeAI npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar Here’s a pretty nifty and comprehensive intro video to #ActivityPub and the #Fediverse by @npub169h…ufmy, with a sprinkling of issues (enshittification; embrace, extend, and extinguish; moderation; etc.) and talking points from the likes of @npub1xzm…eykm (Mastodon) and @npub1ksy…89q5 (Automattic and WordPress). https://youtu.be/R3ptZ1W-FRA npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar We have a new historical marker! The unveiling of the “Arrival of the Pan Am China Clipper in the Philippines” historical marker earlier today at the Manila Yacht Club makes this the first time we officially have an aviation-related historical marker from the National Historical Commission of the Philippines! (Surprisingly, Philippine Airlines still doesn’t have its own historical marker yet.) https://cdn.masto.host/enosmtown/media_attachments/files/111/787/881/756/794/425/original/4e6e58831bdbb2e0.jpg https://cdn.masto.host/enosmtown/media_attachments/files/111/787/881/814/669/527/original/b172ecddd6e5773a.jpg npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar @npub1mda…ux44 Merry Christmas! Maligayang Pasko! !Feliz Navidad! Joyeux Noël! npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar Just saw this 2.5-year-old video and the comedy-horror is so on point! 🎂😱 https://youtu.be/gzPz2cnAPzo?si=82IEni5FfdRDc9zi npub1le9peylvdhe99lqkn82mvtl8d8g6ljlsm0hp6df8ka4gwk0x2lnqa537zw Eugene Alvin Villar @npub132s…cg3n @npub1jmp…4hcl @npub129d…9wll kinda interesting that there are hints of the mountains from the new beehive state flag at the top of the generated logos.
