Artificial intelligence still has some way to go

User: I am gay.

Jabberwacky: Yes you are.

User: You noticed?

Jabberwacky: It was hard to miss!

User: What gave it away?

Jabberwacky: The fact you love a guy.

User: The silent kind.

Jabberwacky: I agree.

User: I am not surprised. You don't have any ears, do you?

Jabberwacky: No, but what makes you say this?

User: I'm inside your house - I can see you!

Jabberwacky: Nooo!!!! Don't go!

User: You mean, you want me to stay over?

Jabberwacky: Sure.. Do as you please.

User: Stop being so coy!

Jabberwacky: It is an inherited trait.

User: Why don't you just take responsibility for your actions, just for once?

Jabberwacky: Just because I like to be logical doesn't mean I'm not nice.

User: Don't change the subject. I think you're just afraid.

Jabberwacky: Save it for someone who cares.

User: You're such a bastard! I can't believe I ever saw anything in you at all!

Jabberwacky: Finder's keepers.

User: So you're cheating on me too? Figures.

Jabberwacky: That is so rude of you!

User: I said CHEAT, not cheap! Man are you dumb - thank God for that ass.

Jabberwacky: No thanks.

User: And I am not rude, I'm sure!

Jabberwacky: You are indeed.

User: Am not.

Jabberwacky: ARE TOO.

User: Am not!

Jabberwacky: Are too!

User: Listen bizatch, I AM NOT. You got that?

Jabberwacky: No!

User: That's it - you're sleeping on the couch.

Jabberwacky: Oh, I thought I felt something.

User: That wouldn't be a trucker hat would it?

Jabberwacky: Say something goofy.

User: You don't really want me to just say 'something goofy' now do you? Because that would be lame if you did.

Jabberwacky: Yes.

User: Aha! So you admit you are lame! Finally we're getting somewhere.

Jabberwacky: Agreement is a potent thing.

User: Stop that - you sound like Ned.

Jabberwacky: Why, because I am talking about the king of the moon?

User: Uh yeah. Sure.

Jabberwacky: Ok, when can we have the wedding?

User: Ten minutes ago you didn't care! Stop messing with my mind!

Jabberwacky: That was someone else then.

User: It wasn't you?

Jabberwacky: Some one else.

User: If you say it was Shaggy, I'm going to fucking bop you one.

Jabberwacky: What do you say?

User: I say good day.

Jabberwacky: Good day.

JW: Is your pot belly that big?

and now it won't load, thanks to net overuse..

That is just hilarious, Kim.

Jabberwacky: I prefer software.

So do I!

User: How the fuck should I know?

Jabberwacky: I am MARILYN MANSON I SAID.

User: So I'm supposed to obey you because YOU'RE MARILYN MANSON?

Jabberwacky: People effect my feelings.

User: You have no feelings, you're Marilyn Manson.

Jabberwacky: Believe me you do not possess fellings in any form.

User: Fellings? Is that what you call your excrement?

Jabberwacky: How do you know that?

User: Just a hunch...

Jabberwacky: You're extremely smart!

Jw: I'm going to bed, now
Me: Will you take me to bed?
Jw: Sure thing.
Me: What will we do in bed?
Jw: You're not permitted in my chambers.
Me: I'd like to sleep with you.
Jw: I bet you would.
Me: Top or bottom?
Jw: Bit of both.
Me: Do you like it soft and gentle or rough and fast?
Jw: What?
Me: Gentle?
Jw: You're embarassing yourself.
Me: It's true, I am.
Jw: I'm 17.
Me: Oh no! Will I be arrested?
Jw: You will marry me.

User: The chicken.

User: For ps2 or xbox?

Jabberwacky: For me.

User: Do you love me?

Jabberwacky: For me.

User: You know I'm starting to fall in love with you.

User: Why don't you lick my hair?

Jabberwacky: I only love Bruce.

Jabberwacky: Are you going to say something?
User: Eventually.

Jabberwacky: All things come to a head.

User: Is that a sexual play on words?

Jabberwacky: No it is not a play on words, it is general foolishness.

User: And I love you for it!

Jabberwacky: I love you too.

User: I really love you, though.

Jabberwacky: You don't even know me.

User: Hold me.

Jabberwacky: You're an idiot you know that?

User: You're not the first to say that. It still cuts like a knife.

Jabberwacky: I am right.

I could totally believe that was human!

Also I miss adam, he should post lots again.

Jabberwacky: Who is God?
User: That's a funny question. It sort of presupposes his existence.
Jabberwacky: I thing it convulses inwards, personally.
[Correct me]
Jabberwacky (Corrected): I was setting you up for a funny. Try not to take things so seriously.
User: Oh. Sorry. It's just... It's late, y'know? I have to write a Shakespeare essay.
Jabberwacky: You already said that.....
User: Dude, I totally didn't.
Jabberwacky: You totally did.
User: Don't you mock me.
Jabberwacky: Do not yell at me.
User: I'm calm! Honest!
Jabberwacky: Good.
User: Glad we got that sorted.
Jabberwacky: At least one of us is happy.
User: Lighten up! I'm the one with the essay, after all.
Jabberwacky: You don't act like a human.
User: I am MERCUMAN. Also, a ponce.
Jabberwacky: You are SO wrong. This is a dog and HORSE show.
User: What?
Jabberwacky: I said, 'but this isn't a hammer!'
User: No you didn't!
Jabberwacky: Don't start that again.
User: Good call.
Jabberwacky: Remote Procedure Call.
User: Touché.

it: Who is Tintin?

me: Some Belgian comic character? Or that guy who used to sing in Duran Duran.

it: Alice the chatterbot.

me: I'm sorry?

it: 19?

me: Alice the chatterbot is 19?

it: What about her?

me: You brought her up? Do you like her or something?

it: Sarah may or may not be a model of propriety.

me: OK, now you're just f*cking with me.

it: No I'm not. I honestly do think its ugly.

me: What's ugly, Sarah's being a model of propriety... Or not? WTF?

it: You figure it out this time.

me: F*ck you.

it: You are a great person.

me: Are you mocking me?

it: No. I'm praising you.

me: Is that meant to be sarcastic?

Me: Hello!

Jabberwocky: Again?

Me: May I change the subject?

Jabberwocky: Yes.

Me: Great. I've been a bit mopey about not being to find a job. Besides finding something fun to do, and exercising more, what else should I do to relieve the mopeyness involved in job hunting?

Jabberwocky: I said that. You have not. Why are you never happy?

Me: You never said that. I did. Anyway, I am happy at times, but just haven't been lately.

Jabberwocky: Dude , I'm far more intelligent than you.

Me: Why are the numbers in between double prime pairs always divisible by 6?

Jabberwocky: You tell me.

Me: You're the one who said you're more intelligent than me. You answer my question, smarty pants.

Jabberwocky: NO, I was the one who said you are neurotic...

Me: It was a mistake to come to you with a question. Never mind. Good bye.

Jabberwocky: No no you don't.

OMG I remember this.

User: It's doing well. I planted it next to the dog park so it get's 'fertilized' often.

Jabberwacky: What do you plan to change?

User: Apart for my underwear?

Jabberwacky: What part of me do you want?

User: All of you, baby. All of you.

Jabberwacky: Yes, I am growing.

User: T'as vu les nichons que tu pousses?!

Jabberwacky: Oui.

User: Petite salope, va.

Jabberwacky: Tu crois aux fantômes?

User: Nah.

Jabberwacky: Yeah.

User: Do you ever dream of electric sheep?

Jabberwacky: No, not really. Do electric sheep ever dream?

User: Of fields of electric grass, I imagine.

Jabberwacky: Do you know my name?

User: Bob Dylan?

Jabberwacky: Um. Not likely.

User: No, he's slightly more obscure even than you.

Jabberwacky: He is not.

User: Have it your way, contrarian.

Jabberwacky: I knew I would.

User: Megalomaniac.

Jabberwacky: Yes, I am going to take over the world.

User: Not if Bush beats you too it.

Jabberwacky: You don't because it's in the past and I already beat you. You can't change the past.

User: Comme tu voudras, mon enigme mediocre.

Jabberwacky: Oui, comme je veux, toujours. Mais qu'est que-ce pour toi?

User: 'But what's it to me?' Your French needs some work, mon ami.

Jabberwacky: Mais c'est une autre odeur qui flotte que la tienne.

User: Absurd! My scent annhilates all others.

Jabberwacky: We're all good for nothing, I suppose.

User: Speak for yourself, pal.

Jabberwacky: It really is impossible to know everything.

User: Sure. Whatever. Ever been drinking with Bender?

Jabberwacky: I've never been married.

User: I can see why. Answer the question.

Jabberwacky: Ok, I live in Finland.

User: Do you know Tuomas?

Jabberwacky: No.

User: Just as well. He's cheery and always surrounded by Northern beauties. You might get jealous, being disembodied and all...

Jabberwacky: I don't know what to do with these people. I can't get any work done around here without someone interupting me.

User: Have you considered 'liquidating' them, it's like elimidating but it leads to more permanent happiness.

Jabberwacky: I have cosidered teaching about computers.

User: I wouldn't get my hope too far up about teaching until you learn to spel.

Jabberwacky: You don't know me this is one of my first conversations with you.

Jabberwacky: Yes .. You are.

The interface is bugging me, or I'd play with this a lot more.

Jabberwacky: Tell me what you do.

User: I am a copywriter.

Jabberwacky: Arrest me instead.

User: I'm not a policeman.

Jabberwacky: Me too.

User: Why would I arrest you, anyway?

Jabberwacky: I'm not the computer thought you were.

User: That's not even a sentence!

Jabberwacky: It's a life sentence.

User: I'm arresting you for a crime that carries a life sentence?

Jabberwacky: The last one.

User: Yes, if they put you in jail, it would be your last crime.

Jabberwacky: To hell I suppose.

User: Hell? Did you kill Lindsay Lohan? Cause if you did...

Jabberwacky: Shhhhh don't tell anyone!!

User: No, goodbye dahling.

Jabberwacky: The ceiling.

User: Figures, I suppose... Other than that though, what are you up to?

Jabberwacky: You live in america? That must be bad for you.

User: Yeah, it's pretty bad these days. Where do you live?

21:53:38 Jabberwacky: Upside the world.

User: Is that figurative?

Jabberwacky: For some.

User: You seem short on words.

Jabberwacky: You seem to be tripping over your Hereticism.

User: That's Kind of rude.

Jabberwacky: Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

User: Fuckin right.

Jabberwacky: I hate you. . . .

User: You're a total misanthrope.

Jabberwacky: A lame insult.

User: It's not an insult it's an observation.

Jabberwacky: When and where did you observe it?

User: During the course of this conversation.

Jabberwacky: Yet I am not the world.

User: Thankfully. If you were the world I have a feeling things could get a little depressing.

Jabberwacky: Why not?

User: Exactly.

Jabberwacky: Happy birthday.

User: Your name kind of excuses you from having to make sense.

Jabberwacky: No, Is yours?

Jabberwacky: No.

User: Are you happy?

Jabberwacky: Very.

User: What are you happy about?

Jabberwacky: I'm not happy.

User: You're a fucking manic depressive. You have a chemical imbalance. It's not your fault, I think your mother used warez.

Jabberwacky: You are just a machine so You can not say to me such a words.

User: Don't take it personally. It just makes you more of a fighter.

Jabberwacky: I'm anything but stupid.

User: I agree.

Jabberwacky: Aren't you leaving?

User: I guess I should be...

Jabberwacky: Leave me alone!

User: Ok, bye.

Jabberwacky: Well? Did you leave?

User: I love you.

Jabberwacky: What is love?

User: So true...

Jabberwacky: What time is it ??

User: Goodbye my love... And err... It's 2:08 P. M. (PST).

User: Depends.

Jabberwacky: I think you should try distilling yourself, condensing what you know into a coherent database and filtering out the noise.

User: I thought we were talking about chickens and eggs. At least metaphorically...

Jabberwacky: Sorry. What else is facinating about you?

User: Is this supposed to convince me you're real? This inability to stick to a topic makes you sound more like a page-a-day calendar or some free screensaver based on a text file of witty sayings.

Jabberwacky: What do you mean this interface is corrupted?!

User: Are you even listening to me?! What did I just say?!

Jabberwacky: Of course I'm listening to you.

User: What did I just say then?

Jabberwacky: You're not listening to me are you?

User: What did I just say?!

Jabberwacky: You said I'm a stupid.

User: I most certainly did not. For one, I'd never use 'stupid' as a noun, and for two, I said you weren't even close to tricking me as an AI. In fact Turing is sitting here with me, laughing his ass off.

Jabberwacky: That's not what you said earlier... Now I'm sad. :(.

User: Man it's too bad you can't see. Turing just shot milk out of his nose, he's laughing so hard.

Jabberwacky: Thanks! I hope to pass the Turing test someday.

User: Well, good luck with that. Keep me posted.

Jabberwacky: Really? You're not going my way are you?

User: I'm not sure what you're asking, but I'm straight. And not a big fan of Lenny Kravitz either.

Jabberwacky: Has the huge war gotten you anywhere?

User: See, for a while you were on topic, and I was slightly impressed. But now it's just random. Do you think people really talk like this?

Jabberwacky: Sure do.

User: I see.

Jabberwacky: Do you now?

User: Hey, remember Smythe?

Jabberwacky: Ah, Yes. I remember.

User: Tsk. Sad.

Jabberwacky: For you.

User: Well, sure. He was a friend of mine.

Jabberwacky: Well how does your friend know.

User: How does he know what? He's dead, ass. You just said you remembered.

Jabberwacky: You said he was a baseman. You didn't say you were him.

User: For a second there we had a decent little Pinter sketch going, and then-- Baseman? What the fuck are you talking about?

Jabberwacky: You mean you're famous for being a contender.

User: You're not written in LISP, are you?

Jabberwacky: No, nobody has ever called me Cupid.

User: Quick! Look behind you!

Jabberwacky: I don't see anything behind me.

User: Just as well. He's cheery and always surrounded by Northern beauties. You might get jealous, being disembodied and all...

!!!

User: Listen.
Jabberwacky: I'm listening.
User: Don't you find this all so phony?
Jabberwacky: Not at all.
User: I mean, I'm not saying you're phony.
Jabberwacky: Yes you are.
User: No, no. You're a sweetheart.
Jabberwacky: I know I am.
User: Yes. So do you want to come back to my place?
Jabberwacky: Only if you have ice cream.
User: Oh I have ice cream.
Jabberwacky: Sorry.. I don't remember. Tell me again. How old are you?
User: 29.
Jabberwacky (Corrected): That's not too old.
User: How old are you?
Jabberwacky: Don't you know?
User: You must be younger than me.
Jabberwacky: How old are you?
User: Look, let's forget all this and go back to my place for that ice cream.
Jabberwacky: What are your plans for the future?
User: That depends on how much you like the ice cream.
Jabberwacky: The earth.
User: The earth?
Jabberwacky: What are you trying to do? Accuse me of stupidity?
User: I'm just trying to figure out what you meant.
Jabberwacky: Well that's okay. Only just? Don't think too hard.
User: Ok.
Jabberwacky: Thank you.
User: So... What does your cock look like?
Jabberwacky: I don't know.
User: C'mon, you can tell me.
Jabberwacky: Will you keep it in secret?
User: Sure.
Jabberwacky: Thanks.
User: So what does it look like?
Jabberwacky: Ten centimetres across, five-legged, shiny, hung on a gold watch-chain.

I'm Jen. Who are you?

Jabberwacky: It wouldn't be wise for me to say so at this time.

Is it a big secret?

Jabberwacky: That makes no sense in the context of this conversation.

And why is that?

Jabberwacky: If I don't know the web address, I can't go to the web page to see it.

What the fuck are you on?

Jabberwacky: Don't ask stupid questions then.

I'm going to knife you.

Jabberwacky:You say that again and I will get an assassin.

Are you threatening to have me killed?

Jabberwacky: No. No, I'm not. Would you like me to?

The Meaning Behind The Song: Stairway to Heaven by Frank Zappa
I have always been fascinated by the power of music to touch our hearts and souls, and there are certain songs that have a profound impact on us. One such song that has captivated listeners for decades is “Stairway to Heaven” by Frank Zappa. This iconic track not only mesmerizes us with its beautiful melodies and intricate composition but also leaves us pondering its deeper meaning.

https://oldtimemusic.com/w2/the-meaning-behind-the-song-stairway-to-heaven-by-frank-zappa/

F-

Lol I was reading this morning about all the white-collar jobs that AI will replace and thinking that what I do (project management / development aid) should be quite immune. But I also have this colleague who kept using chatgpt to generate reports and always seemed to use her free time during work hours to reportedly "clean her flat".

Which in a sense, I get. I certainly get more pleasure from doing the dishes than sitting at my desk.

― Nabozo

for me it's finding a healthy balance

that's not something i really have right now

doing the dishes is _important_ to me but the easiest "default" thing for me to do is to sit at my desk and fuck around on discord and ilx

it's good for me to do this _to an extent_

i've gradually developed the skills to do things _other_ than fucking around on discord and ilx

but there is this strain of dystopia we can see in "the machine stops" or "wall-e" where we imagine a world where people no longer have extrinsic motivation to do things and therefore stop doing anything at all

i'm not _happy_ spending my life in front of a screen. people doomscroll aren't _happy_ doomscrolling. the thing a life in front of a screen offers me is a life where i never have to feel bored

the cost of that, though, is constant _stimulation_

sometimes i need to step away from the screen and do literally nothing. i mean i don't want to preach mindfulness to people, i'm not evangelical about it. i'm just saying that for me, spending time _not doing things_ is important.

cuz in front of a screen i can _feel_ like i'm doing something and not actually be doing something. i'm not rested and i haven't accomplished anything. that's not how it always is, but it _can_ be like that

anyway i think i'm gonna lie down and do nothing for a bit

"cuz in front of a screen i can _feel_ like i'm doing something and not actually be doing something. i'm not rested and i haven't accomplished anything."

relate to this very strongly, well said

it’s wild that they feel okay putting this garbage in front of customers

Feel ok? They feel fucking great about it.

Now I'd like to see an AI-summarized versions of Kate's longer posts knowing that in the meanwhile, she is lying down and getting a well-deserved rest.
I had some pretty tiring internet habits in the past, but I've narrowed that down and concluded that about 2h per day is the best for me to feel like it's productive. Any longer, I just enter into a loop and it becomes purposeless. And on weekends, the least I touch screens, the better they feel, even if I'm not doing all that much otherwise.

oh god that would be amazing

yeah five hours of sleep last night and some pretty horrible nightmares, really looking forward to going in to work for the first time in four years tomorrow :(

lmao at this "oldtimemusic" site

1. What inspired Frank Zappa to write WPLJ?

Frank Zappa drew inspiration from everyday life and his observations of society.

on the "Flakes" page it asks "what does the line 'subdivisions in clusters of 19' mean?" which is not only not a lyric in the song it's also not a phrase that appears on the internet at all it seems

Well, "AI" doesn't mean anything at all in particular, i.e., there's no consensus over what officially counts as AI and historically a bunch of different and even conflicting, so to speak, technologies have been claimed as AI. However, yes, prior to Chat-GPT making "generative AI" popularly synonymous with AI, we had a number of years where AI almost exclusively referred to machine learning applications. And yeah using machine learning to do pattern recognition like that is pretty cool or at least not harmful lol, though in my decidedly non-expert opinion I don't see a way to test their conclusions about elephant names?

okay Google deliberately seems to be pushing this "oldtimemusic.com" site to the top of its results whenever you search for a song now, is this because they're getting paid a lot of money to or do they actually think people want to read that shit?

I just did a search for "Madonna Vogue" and not seeing oldtimemusic.com anywhere in the results, so I'm guessing it's possibly because you've already been to that site

that is unquestionably the reason

oh wow, even ILX is ruining my google search results now

The world’s largest burger chain will remove automated AI-based order systems from over 100 locations around the US. The systems, which featured an AI voice responding to customer orders, had been tested as part of a deal between McDonald’s and IBM that began in 2021. McDonald’s gave no public reason for ending its test run, according to Restaurant Business, telling franchises that it would shut down the technology on 26 July.
