Reply to comment by twovests in Will AI be subtly used for an effect in a great film some day? Probably. Will we first get hundreds of incredibly dogshit movies using a lot of AI in flagrant ways? Definitely. by twovests
I feel like there's a pretty wide gulf between ai that generates something from nothing through prompts, and the facial effect they used that was specifically trained for one thing. Mainly in that one looks way better than every other attempt at doing the same kind of thing, and that the other makes me want to die just thinking about it.
The other bit of ai used in Furiosa was generated voices used in the music, which is an extremely lost battle I think. I think BBL Drizzy probably cemented that into the culture Lol

Do you also have N24 or a different kind of sleeping disorder? Either way, my condolences and wishing you luck with getting that much sought after normal sleep schedule 🙏

I appreciate these updates, I also am desperately trying to find ways to contort my sleep schedule and have had no success. I also tried fractions of melatonin gummies.

Update: Well it did put me to sleep, but only for about 5 hours. I was hoping it would knock me out for a proper 8-9 hour sleep, I think it probably didn't because I had only woken up about 5 hours before going to sleep again so my body didn't really need the full sleep. I probably should have waited until my sleep schedule rotated around to normal sleeping hours first in retrospect, but I was impatient. I think I will wait for that before I try this again. Still, it did put me to sleep at a time where I normally wouldn't be, so I'm willing to be positive and write this up as a partial success

I have not been to a dentist since the start of covid and I'm scared to go but I know the longer I delay the more the odds that something bad happens go up, but I'm still too scared to go.

I only know what the double meaning is for the gnu image manipulation program and I think I'm OK with that.

People calling Minneapolis "the mini apple" is another one, for me. I find it really annoying.

I was wondering if this was a song lyric of some sort. DuckDuckGo had nothing and I googled it, and Google offered a confident AI overview explaining Apple's products and services.

I don't think tourists believe calling it hell is a cutesy nickname locals affectionately use though.

Update: he said i have to get a psych note before I can get the surgery. Really annoying and probably going to add a lot more waiting time before I can actually get the procedure done, kind of bummed out about the whole thing. Oh well.

I don't have anything diagnosed, and I don't know if I can claim a sleep disorder. But I can also claim not to remember the last time I had a night of restful sleep!
So, I wish you luck, and will also be looking at this "N24" thing...
