And lossy too.
Maybe somebody will invent a compression scheme using AI that can turn single phrases into novels.
Wait, is this how cryptography works? You have a seed, an algorithm and the number of times the algorithm should run. To encrypt something you use the output and to decrypt it you send the number of times the algorithm should run? Or something like that...
My favourite game Playing Chinese whispers with AI.
I mean, I don't throw the baby out with the bath water. I definitely don't run sensitive information through a thing. But if it's trivial and it's nonsense, I'm gonna ask this fucking robot to summarize this shit for me. It's for low value information that you are forced to absorb. And of course I'm running the AI locally. I ain't fucking sine an into shit.
and it’s nonsense
If it's nonsense, I'm blocking the sender and saving my CPU some clock cycles worth of wear.
I'm really looking forward for the next generation of people who are unable to read a text that's not summarized or longer than a sentence.
It worked so well with short-form content and attention span for the last generation.
Having your basic litteracy tied to a proprietary tool that is free for now (I wonder why), but we all know costs billions of dollars will be absolutely swell.
Though I have to admit, I'm kind of impressed that capitalism is sucessfully getting away with what appears to be slapping a subscription on litteracy.
Most of my emails you can ignore after the first two or three sentences. Sometimes actual bullet points. Anyone who wants to know more details can read the body.
Subject: Update on project X
- successful with reanimating dead tissue.
- complications caused us to terminate all test subjects and sterilize the lab.
- no other issue. New processes pending next tabletalk exercise.
We successfully reanimated tissues in the lab. The virus went airborne and infected a lab rabbits. Said rabbit starting eating the others in when back in the cage. We terminated all the live test subjects and sterized the lab room. All staff were in full PPE with no compromise. Tabletalk is scheduled with department heads to plan next formula, safety and security procedures.
