well, I can only speak from my own experience. I forget the exact prescription but my eyes were also slightly off so one was worse than the other and neither was perfect.
Idk if it’s just that significant or if it’s having them align but it made tree leaves just look individual and pop for me. I was staring at every tree and saying how they look so cool and it was only later that I learned this common tree meme among people who get glasses.
I paid for eye insurance when I first landed a “real” job that has benefits and got an eye check up and the optometrist was like “you’re just barely off from 20/20, not really even a prescription” and i was like oh geez what a waste of time.
And then I put on the pair of glasses and it was like this. Just every tree looked magical.
idk, I’m a meat eater and if it wasn’t for vegans evangelizing I really wouldn’t know how messed up meat production is. We allow some seriously cruel shit to fellow sentient beings, far beyond just killing them, and no one wants to think about it.
but the aspect of it that is most AI-like is the chat which is from LLMs.
It may have started 7 years ago, but it isn’t a new or different technology than LLMs which are impressive but not actual thinking AI despite them presenting it that way and people interpreting it that way
I keep seeing clips of this one specific robot and it just seems like it’s an LLM. The comments on the clips are always people seemingly really believing it’s thinking and is alive.
This robot makes me think there is a percentage of the population that believes we already have true general AI and I can see how people like that would think having it do a commencement speech was a good idea.
The university probably got paid for this, right?
this makes so much sense, how do you know all this?
that reminds me of a meeting I was in with the CEO of the company I worked for and we went around the room sharing our hobbies. Everyone said things like reading books or baking or playing video games or whatever.
The CEO said collecting vintage cars.
“thank you, doctor”
“no sir, thank you!”
