Robot is as surprised as I am!

Lucky_777@lemmy.world on 31 May 12:35 next collapse

Until it can start doing actually work around the house. Then I’ll hard pass all day. These things are useless in current state.

Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world on 31 May 12:37 next collapse

Can it empty my dishwasher?

Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world on 31 May 14:05 collapse

If you program it. Seems like Robots are now the mid 70’s home computers.

Kusimulkku@lemm.ee on 31 May 16:01 collapse

I’ll program it to do middle out algorithm

rigatti@lemmy.world on 31 May 16:20 collapse

You need it to jerk off an entire conference of software developers in record time?

Kusimulkku@lemm.ee on 31 May 18:58 collapse

While intelligently taking into account D2F of course

k0e3@lemmy.ca on 31 May 13:17 next collapse

Right, so I’m just supposed to trust a robot called face hugger.

ravenaspiring@sh.itjust.works on 31 May 14:03 collapse

Hugging face is repository and Machine learning hub. huggingface.co/huggingface

MangoCats@feddit.it on 31 May 15:27 next collapse

And they’re totally trustable, riiiiight.

REDACTED@infosec.pub on 01 Jun 18:10 collapse

What are you saying? Are you claiming they’re putting malicious code in their downloads or something?

MangoCats@feddit.it on 01 Jun 22:23 collapse

It’s mostly a joke about Alien’s fictional face hugger and how people carrying one inside look normal, until…

Also, anything that’s too free for too long is likely to either disappear, or turn to profit seeking at some point.

I dont really understand their business model.

Hosting these huge model files. Why cant facebook/goog/m$ just do that on their own?

How did these massive ai giants end up relying on huggingface for everything?

rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee on 01 Jun 03:36 collapse

Well you see. AI companies are run by idiots with too much money to throw around so all you have to do is tell them your startup is github for ai models and they’ll bury you with money.

Some other things too.

The stand will be house keeping. Not happening unless it does my dishes and laundry.

untakenusername@sh.itjust.works on 31 May 16:56 next collapse

the future is gonna be fucking insane

MajesticTechie@feddit.uk on 31 May 17:05 next collapse

How long before it becomes a sexbot?

FinishingDutch@lemmy.world on 31 May 17:11 next collapse

I’m designing the 3D-printable fleshlight mount right now. Hold your horses and give me ten minutes…

REDACTED@infosec.pub on 01 Jun 18:11 collapse

It’s been a day, my horse is getting impatient

pogmommy@lemmy.ml on 01 Jun 03:14 next collapse

It already is one if you’re not a coward

0ops@lemm.ee on 01 Jun 22:34 next collapse

It’s open source apparently, soooo fork it? Fork it real nice

Why these robots never get a cool appearance? I'm not talking full-body, streamlined, Ultron-like, but in actual commercial models even the face alone seems to be an easy task for movie designers and impossible for industry ones.

Usernameblankface@lemmy.world on 01 Jun 00:15 next collapse

Design for movies only have to look good for a few minutes of close-up, and there are many tricks for making them look better in those few minutes.

SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org on 01 Jun 01:45 collapse

Few minutes? Some have entire movies, but still look better than commercial bots like "Pepper", for example.

Usernameblankface@lemmy.world on 01 Jun 21:17 collapse

A few minutes of close-up. Otherwise, medium to far shots, shots where the camera is moving enough that a few blemishes in the robot won’t show up, or the focus is on another character in the shot.

George Lucas would start suing

Dindonmasker@sh.itjust.works on 31 May 17:35 next collapse

I can’t wait to get a remote controlled robot i can control in VR from anywhere. I just hope nobody will be able to connect to it and kill me in my sleep tho lol

LongboardingLad@lemmy.world on 01 Jun 02:26 next collapse

No I do not want that.

I really don’t, but thanks for asking I guess.
