 cd $(mktemp -d) && mkfifo stdin.in && tail -q -n +1 -f ./stdin.in | exec simplescreenrecorder &>/dev/null --start-hidden --start-recording & 

believe the content creators, of course.

Don't confuse utilizing ML models with LLMs. LLMs are more effective Google searches. Machine learned programs are better chess players, medical diagnosticians, etc. AI, as defined by ML model usage, will be more disruptive and ubiquitous than the World Wide Web.

>disruptive
why do techbros use this as a generic compliment for something? disruptive things are generally bad

It comes from the days when few industries had digitization. Lots of successful businesses got their start automating manual processes and digitizing physical forms. To disrupt printers, fax, and snail mail with computers was a massive boon and extremely disruptive to existing empires that became complacent and got shook up.

Now it's the tech companies who are complacent and need to be shook up. It's always a matter of perspective with a term like disruptive.

For reference, every single thing that is being said about AI right now was said about the internet in 1994. Instead what happened was significantly more work was created and an explosion of self expression was suddenly thrusted into the world.

In my opinion, enjoy AI while it lasts before normies truly get a hold of it and ruin everything like they usually do. Once they learn it can do more than just reassure their weird thoughts and that it's not sentient it's going to be chaos.

i get that when it's shitty startups who say shit like "WE ARE DISRUPTING THE STAGNANT ACETYLENE LAMP MARKET" but when referring to things already in tech and current it just sounds retarded. like they're going to come in and break shit just because they can.

but then again "move fast and break things" was a phrase parroted forever too so maybe techbros just hate it when things just werk

Never trust sales and marketing people. CEOs fall under that umbrella, they're all just glorified marketers at this point and their sole purpose is to lie and boost the stock price like Elon does. AI is everywhere, but that's been the case for a decade already. Machine learning is ubiquitous and is important and will remain important. LLMs and other AIs from companies building gorillion-dollar datacenters to let you generate a thousand big tiddy waifus are a dead end because the tech doesn't scale. Maybe at some point in the future when we have a new computing hardware breakthrough LLMs will become capable of doing more than being a glorified chatbot or fancier google search, but for now that's all they are.

Oh, for fucks sake, companies are now telling programmers to use AI to re-write code or help with brainstorming to find ways to discover loopholes in legally problematic code such as spyware, etc.
I can't identify which major company, but I just discovered one major company is currently using AI to push super-cookie spyware on consumers again (made illegal a while ago). They're getting around the laws through a technicality. The spyware doesn't fit the exact specifics of how super-cookies normally operate; this way is more indirect (they adapted a while before this with other forms of fingerprinting, but apparently they always want to expand on data collection). I only discovered it because I tried to pay a bill and got suspicious when things started to lag and when my security browser extensions started going haywire, so I took a deep dive and poked around for an hour. I grew extremely frustrated with what I saw.

Every time I review a PR from people on my team who heavily use AI it is always a cluster fuck with hidden issues everywhere

oooh thats a very clever script
why not just use ffmpeg though?

>>106779001
Seems like a pretty extreme response.
I'm just a regular citizen. I'm not having a major company with government ties knocking on my door, sir.
But I'll give you a clue: Rhymes with "I'm Dead"

>>106779021
ffmpeg is really good, I rarely if ever need to work with media formats or recording or anything like that, I gave simplescreenrecorder a shot and it was sufficient for my task. one day I'll actually look at ffmpeg's documentation and learn how to use it.
