Day 4 of my Dutch adventure in February was a simple transfer from Amersfoort to Amsterdam, to be in the capital for an incredible evening of music from Epica, Amaranthe and Charlotte Wessels. Of course, I could hop on any of the direct services and be in Amsterdam in half an hour or so, but instead I went via Rotterdam and Breda. Click on the photo below to view them all Regards, Kieran -
I've seen annual accounts from the Scottish National Party that are more trustworthy... -
Technology usually gets better, and the early stages can be a bit poor. Like automatic chokes forty years ago, but the systems generally work OK after a while and we forget how it used to be without it. I know an 'edgy journalist' who uses AI to write his articles. Having discussed some of the subjects with him over time, it's fairly clear that he knows so little that he wouldn't be able to tell if his articles were nonsense or not. But, I suspect a lot of his audience are much the same - they just want to hear the opinion they want reinforced. Facebook pops up a lot of stuff on aircraft for me and I noticed a nice picture of a Phantom the other day. I was about to click away, having seen enough Phantoms to last me into the grave, when I spotted something odd - the presumed occupant of the rear seat, from the way the two crew were standing, was a woman. Reading the caption, the picture was alleged to be from 1974, so this seemed a little unlikely. Looking at the picture more closely, it was full of errors, although they 'looked right', but were either very incorrect or even physically impossible. There are likely to be problems with people falling for incorrect AI output - a lot of people seem to not fully understand what is and is not possible - I have had somebody tell me that an obviously faked 'Victorian photograph' had to be real, because it was taken before Photoshop was invented... -
Lots of people at work sing the praises of AI. When it can do my job, I’ll retire. Looks like I’ll be working until I drop then. It can produce pretty but false pictures but it’s absolutely useless for anything requiring an accurate answer. Just do the sums on the dimensions it’s put on those sketches…
