Yeah it’s just extortion. They know you can’t go anywhere so they set those ridiculous prices and get away with it

This is the only way in English I’ve ever known

Airport prices are on a whole other level

This thing can’t replicate a house. I know, I know I fit inside a cubic metre but having a house that size is a bit restrictive. I was hoping for something more spacious.

Indeed, your proposed dichotomy is perfectly logical and I agree with that.

My point is that OP already stated it’s hard to tell the difference. That’s precisely why they made the post in the first place. So why are you asking all these questions about whether or not it is easy to tell apart or not? You already had your answer from the beginning.

Now, if OP had contradicted themselves at any point, saying for example “ai slop is so unlike human mediocre art, you can totally see the soul in art” or " AI can’t do anything similar to fine art" and then immediately asked “but how can you guys tell apart because it’s so difficult” then your reply would have made sense.

I hope that makes it clear.

This is not a one size fits all situation. No pun intended

You’re barking your sarcasm up the wrong tree

No. AI and robots don’t care about anything. They don’t care about taking over. Whoever controls them though, now we’re talking. And that’s much worse

I’m average. I know I can fit inside a cubic metre

I’m an average woman, at 168 cm height I can easily fit in a cubic metre if I crouch or lay in fetal position.

I often feel like I could accomplish so much more if I had a clone. Just one, more than one clone would become an expense

Anyway if that’s not an option then I’d replicate a variety of:

dollar bills.

Jewellery, gold and precious gems.

Computers, and phones, especially if I can sell some of its parts such as the graphics card

Other luxury items such as parfum, spirits, etc

Eggs

I don’t know, I feel most of these things would lose their value pretty quickly if everyone had a replicator. Kind of like what AI is doing to the creative arts. Only this time it would be the rich getting affected, not struggling artists

Can… Can I replicate myself?

Mmm yes with a side of mushrooms

I’ve no idea about what cover you’re talking about. But recently I stumbled across this site called Artvee.com . They have a very fine collection of public domain images you can browse.

No idea on how it works if you plan on using one, but it’s public domain so that’s a good start

I think there should be a variant of this meme format that suits better. Bart is disappointed but also embarrassed and ashamed; Homer is trying to show some support for him (but sort of failing) . It doesn’t really match the spirit of the lines on this occasion though.

The timing of the day in which I eat certain things. I lost 15kg over a year just by cutting sweets and carbs after 4pm. I still ate them, especially in the morning.

And talking about morning - “breakfast like a king, supper like a beggar” also contributed to that weight loss.

Nowadays I am not strict but whenever I see myself going over my weight I first take those two measures up before making any calorie cuts

Edit: although these are food habits, so I don’t know if it really answers your question. Exercise is the other thing that helps, you don’t even need a lot of it

I had similar results to you. In my case the deal breaker was navigation, because I need to be able to make changes to the route on the fly which these apps don’t allow. In fact, you need to tap like ten times through menus to finish a trip and search for something else.

I see what you did there

The first phrase is true.

The second, I’m not sure. Some really talented artists have worked in advertisements for a long time, and many of their works are celebrated internationally. Alphonse Mucha is one name that quickly comes to mind - tell me his advertisement work isn’t art. You have probably seen more amateur ripoffs of his style in your life than the real deal.

I’m with you on this one. I have no issues with AI being used for shit posting and memes, other than the ecological impact I guess.

That’s just the model getting paid- which is good - but the pay rate isn’t the same as the one for the shoot. It’s the rate they get paid for the images to be used, something similar to royalties so to speak. It will greatly benefit a minority of popular models, and drastically reduce the job pool for new models.

The photographers are getting totally screwed though, as well as the make up artist and anyone else involved in a shoot.
