My wedding in 11 days. Even though I’m somewhat stressed because I’ll have to travel for it and there are some moving parts, I’m excited. Wife is taking it pretty well and she is excited as well!

Make sure to make a conscious choice to stop every once in a while and take the moments in, otherwise you might not remember anything because things are happening so fast on the day

I literally made a comment saying the exact same thing some 10 days ago! i’ll make sure I take a second and take it all in. Thank you!

The fediverse is something I’m excited for and it’s still in it’s infancy so it’ll be intersting to see how it plays out as it starts getting more polished and use friendly.
I and despite the doom and gloom of AI I think it’s been really cool, and one area I’ve seen it help is for my relatives where instead of me having to solve basic rech issues AI has helped. When it develops into a full on companion that will do things it asks them to I’ll be bothered less and less.

It’s frustrating to see peoples’ imaginations run wild with AI. They’re not building “sentient” machines. There will never be machines that are sentient in anything other than appearance, and we’re notoriously easy to fool in that way.
My favorite way to describe AI that I’ve heard is “applied statistics.” It’s basically just processing huge amounts of data, very fast, simultaneously, and then presenting conclusions that are usually very likely.
Yes, it will be used to make weapons that are horrifically efficient, but likewise it will be used to make defenses that are equally efficient.
I think the good will ultimately outweigh the bad. Hopefully by a long shot.

LLMs are spontaneously developing theory of mind and nobody knows why or how, meaning that now ChatGPT and the like are able to consider what the user is thinking, opening some avenues for actual manipulation. GPT-4 can solve 95% of ToM tasks that a 7-year-old could.

For me I have been having fun testing novel ai and trying tk play pseudo rpg adventures alone, I will probably never share anything but it has been really fun to try AI as a single player experience.

I watched this AI npc in Skyrim and the level of interactivity it brought is amazing. So often in games characters quickly run out of lines, and feel like dead mannequins in open world games. Having a game world where there are lasting consequences because NPCs remember what you did is going to be cool. As opposed the same lines being recycled over and over.

This is something I’ve wanted to try. I still want to have with people but I can’t always. I think it could help me flesh out a campaign too.

I’ll be trying out Linux outside of a virtual machine for the first time. I’ve got a SATA SSD external enclosure that I’ll be using to boot without messing with my current pc

possibly getting a new laptop that is slightly better than my desktop, i hope to get into something like peertube/content creation but im still thinking it thru.

I joined the great resignation to pursue a freelance art career. I’m excited but also terrified I’ll just be another starving artist. At least I don’t have to wake up at 6am anymore.

Specifically, good things on the World Wide Web: research. The amount of good information available is incredible, compared with pre-Internet times. Weather forecasts, what the space telescope is looking at, what’s happening in other parts of the world places in their own voice.
Sure, there is misinformation as well, and some people will cast doubt on anything they don’t like or try to drown it out, but get past that, and this is a golden age of knowledge.

What do you run on it?
- nik282000 ( @nik282000@lemmy.ml ) 1•1 year ago
Running Zoneminder so my GF can keep an eye on her shop from her phone (without paying someone a subscription).

My excitement is maybe small, but I’m excited about the 5-ish hours of sleep I’ve just had, which is such a gift after weeks of pain waking me up all the time
- AshFromYourFire ( @AshFromYourFire@reddthat.com ) 5•1 year ago
That doesn’t sound small at all! Wishing you more restful sleep in the nights to come. 😊

I’ll keep it short term and simple. Wednesday nights I do cocktails and listen to live jazz group from the local school music students from 6pm-7pm, then I walk to my local sushi joint for great fish!

I went hiking on Saturday and I took a fuck ton of pictures, I’m really looking forward to editing the best shots from the trip. The hike was so beautiful it’s probably going to be pretty hard to pick, and honestly that’s the best kind of problem to have.
Also I have a bunch of miniatures that are at the point of needing a final pass of paint before being done, that I’m really excited to finish up.

I have a powerlifting meet on Sunday that I’m excited for. Going to set some PRs hopefully!

I’m excited to see my two teenage daughters perform together in their theater camp production in a couple of weeks. Seeing my girls growing up so fast can be bittersweet, and I relish these moments when they are so clearly full of joy for what they are doing. They will even have a duet together!
- sunbeam60 ( @sunbeam60@lemmy.one ) 2•1 year ago
I feel really happy for you! I’ve got two older daughters who are both into their performing arts and nothing will reduce me to tears quicker than seeing them blossoming during a performance, doing things that have taken years and years of practice and which I could never hope to achieve.

Hard question for a pessimist. I have some pretty delicious lunch coming up so that’s pretty great.
