Rig Talk and AI

[SgtThump]

a friend of my wife who prides herself as a strong vocalist (but to the real world is a very pitchy, marginal singer)
and touts her various “performances” at family gatherings and special occasions for friends as professional gigging experience,
“hum-wrote” a song using AI. band, string section, vocals all artificial.

showed it to a friend of a friend who liked it enough without ever hearing her perform in person to invite her to sing her song at a music festival event at one of the major concert venues here…up to 8500 people. hoping he was just trying to make a move on her and doesn’t actually intend to throw her out there in front of a sea of cell phones. cause that would be BAD.

i hope things work out but i fear AI in this case artificially gave her too much confidence and put her in a predicament natural selection would have more appropriately culled her from.

Please get a video!

I, for one, am all for Rig-Talk using AI (otherwise, it would just be called Rg-Tlk and I think that's wrong).

Haha, that is so something I would post. Congratulations, you’re as retarded as me

A.I. is one of those things you can do, but is it a good idea? People have to ask themselves that.

I'm in my mid-50s so I was lucky enough to have a pre-cell phone, pre-computer life. I feel bad for people who can't turn off technology.

Same here.
I've said a few times over the years of how I used to like coming to work before email and cellphones. Email has enabled the lazy and entitled folks to shamelessly forward tasks on those who can FFO and get things done. When you have multiple people doing that in a company, it can burn you out.

I specifically remember around late 1999 a significant change in middle and upper management demeanor. They got nastier, pushed tasks on others (see above), created fake crisis urgency, and used fear like it was the soviet union all over again. I used to say, that I thought some asshole wrote a book on how to manage like an asshole and every ladder climber read it.

Well, it turns out I was right. late 1998 the 48 Laws of Power came out and by 1999 Havard biz school was pushing it. All the management wannabees read it and enjoyed treating coworkers like shit to get ahead. I heard of this book about 10 years ago and read it. Immediately, I realized it was all a fake BS power play and these people gave up on their integrity and humility in order to try to make themselves look good by making others look bad.

Who is this Al guy I used to play in a band with a guy named Al, but I don’t think it’s the same guy. Why doesn’t anybody say Al’s last name?

This reminds me of the Support versus A**hole curve I saw on instagram. As demand goes up the manager should provide more support. If not then the manager is operating in the A**hole zone.

Yep and it used to be that you would go to work, chat a bit, work, and each day would have different scenarios play out, etc.

Now you get to work and your boss is bitching because you didn't answer the email they sent the night before, right after you left.

I love technology but it has screwed the world up. If I say im going by the store to get something to eat, a friend will say "hey man just DoorDash it" or "the grocery store delivers". I don't want to have auto vacuums and delivered food and texting. I want to go to a store and look at the item i'm biying, talk to someone and joke with them behind the counter, get fresh air and exercise and go home and wave to my neighbors.

They say the only certainties in life are death and taxes.

I'd add "the race to the bottom" to that.

If she has pitch correction, she might wing it.
TOTALLY artificial.

This was a good one.

It is easy to want food delivered, a.i., robot vacuums, etc. But it doesn't improve life. It makes people lazy and miserable. Get out and take a walk in the woods some time. It instantly makes you feel like you have more energy. Fuck a.i.

One could argue that they dont have the time to take a walk in the woods because they have to do such chores as, picking up/buying/cooking/cleaning food, vacuum the house, etc.

But hey now ai can take a walk in the woods for them too.

 

[7704A]

Fuck a.i.

They're working on that, too.
