Even More AI Thoughts

[Glenn]

Thanks Millard,

Not Saying people who use ChatGBT or other Ai are Stupid. (I am talking about MENTAL STIMULATION. The mental Muscle Getting Stronger by putting Your WITS to WORK.)

Here is an Awful - but Better TEST
of whether Ai reaches Sentience.

Years ago A Hospital Did a Study with Newborn babies.

"A" Room of babies - Nurses Went from baby to baby
And cuddled them.

"B" Room - Babies were left alone in Their Cribs.

ALL THE BABIES in Room "B" Died.

---------
---------
The Horrible Study - of course - would be.

Redo The Study.

ROOM A - Still has contact with Babies And Real People.

ROOM B - Have a SMART ROBOT play with Newborns.

Seems like the Babies might be able to
tell if they are LOVED Instinctively.

And Tell the Difference Btwn A Robot and a Human Bean.

NEVER going to happen, of course.

But IF We IGNORE the Scientists.

Who seem to Be IDIOTS as far as thinking outside The Box.

It seems to be a Better TEST
than whether a Robot can Beat a Human At Chess or "Go"

Thanks,
Glenn

Thanks Glenn for the tips.

It's interesting that a reporter cannot see the forest from the trees about Dollar General. I should have known Dollar General would be taking a hit after reading a report from Mike Adams of Natural News about stocking up on items we normally get from China. Your report on the ports confirms this.

I especially liked your message about being paid for what is NOT said.... I will keep that in mind.

Glenn, I appreciate your thoughts once again.

Thanks Millard,

One of the REASONS for the Tarriffs are the Hundreds of thousands of
Outright THEFTS being sold to Americans in the USA and other
countries - world wide.

(WE know that brand name Designer clothing, Handbags, shoes are RIPPED OFF and Sold everywhere.)

I bought a Nifty new American Invented Mousetrap on Amazon.com. After watching a podcast interview.

I got RIPPED OFF.
I GOT the WRONG ONE. It was Cheaper.

Had to Repurchase from The USA inventor Dude.

The Reason Why?

A RIPPOFF is being sold side by side with The Original At CHEAPER PRICES.

A Chinese Company STOLE his company name. Product name. And Until the
Tarriffs has been selling Their Knockoff version of HIS INVENTION.

Side by side.

For years and years and YEARS.

And the USA guy can't do anything about it.

The Chinese version is a Lot CHEAPER.

And since I bought both.

I can tell you the RIPPOFF is not as good.

Anywho.

Invisible but all thru MAJOR USA Companies
are hundreds of similar blatant (BUT HIDDEN) - BRAND NAME RIPPOFF Products.

Which are cheaper cuz they are DIRECT Rippoffs of an American
Product.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - I just learned that AMAZON is planning to USE Ai to
Insert the Difference in the prices - BEFORE and AFTER the Tarriffs.

IF they Actually DO THAT.

You will be able to SEE CLEARLY with Ai assisted 3D Glasses.

Not all but many of the Rippoff Products.

You can bet they don't INTEND for their Ai
announcements to Highlight the products
made in China - or Chinese affiliate RIPPOFF Factories.

But KNOWING what is really going on - You can SEE thru the FOG.

Thanks Glenn for the advice about the ripoffs. Sheesh, ya gotta watch everything nowadays.

Your post about cheap copies got me to thinking about how AI works to copy things. So, I did some more experimenting.

I saw a video on Youtube of Julia McCoy who created a clone of herself and proceeded to do the same. Haven't got the voice cloned yet, but according to most AI guys, Eleven Labs is the go-to place to get that done.

I have to admit, AI did a good job of replicating my face. I used ChatGPT for one image and AIRFLOW produced four different images that ALL looked like me... in remarkable detail.

The positive side of this is that someone could produce quite a bit of content to teach others without having to spend hours in front of a camera. The STRONG negative I see, is that this technology will only get better and the possibility for DEEPFAKES will increase dramatically and it will be tough determining what is truth and what is fiction.

Be prepared for shenanigans!
