    Boston Dynamics has apparenlty never turned a profit, so there's no reason to presume AI of that kind would be cost effective.

    software-related AI Video has arrived - It looks incredible

    This article shows the shortcomings of AI when it comes to replacing humans and it also references the video in this thread as just a demo.

    I'm talking of King Arthur and the Monkey King; not the modern copyrighted versions.

    @CelticRambler, I'm a pantser, which means I write by the seat of my pants, according to my whims and fancies. It just made me feel good to do that. As for my original work, I have been working on my magnus opus, which has gone through some major revisions in the story I've been wanting to tell...

    licensing Question on bringing a tv show from overseas

    If this is indeed a chatbot, then this statement can lead to lawsuits against the owners for fraudulent misrepresentation. The question, of course, is how to track them down, but, if they have money, they can be found, I'm sure.

    Instead of just talking ......

    I'm almost halfway through "The Mists of Avalon", and, while it's very well written, at over 800 pages, it's pretty slow moving. I know about the love affairs in the Arthurian legend, and the late author has included some love scenes between women - this is, after all, the tale told from the...

    licensing Question on bringing a tv show from overseas

    I wonder how far this AI phenomenon is going to go - chatbots and AI searches are definitely here to stay, but is AI going to take over, or is it going to be like the internet, settling down in a few years to just a change in our lifestyles?

    Speaking of automation, Mercedes is using robots to do boring and repetitive tasks. But, despite two centuries of advances, humans haven't been thrown out of work.

    The robot should have thought that, after handling the trash, it should not have handled the clean plate and cup. But I've seen humans make the same mistake. That said, I wonder how much of this was preplanned, as in the robot was programmed to figure out what to do, but it still cannot post on...

    I wrote that post above on Sunday, when I had a few moments to myself. And I felt good all day Monday and even today. Writing is my creative expression then, not film, though I still hope to be an EP-writer. Anyway, to elaborate on the post above, Marion Zimmer Bradley's "Mist of Avalon" has...

    Instead of just talking ......

    I’m reading “The Mists of Avalon” by the late Marion Zimmer Bradly, which is a retelling of the legend of King Arthur from the point of view of the women. I’m thinking that I can develop my writing skills by retelling the stories that are well known (and public domain), so here are some...

    The regulars know that I've been posting about how people talk about talking about making a film, and I think it's time to stop taking and do something. I'm going to write about writing. 😁

    software-related AI Video has arrived - It looks incredible

    @CelticRambler, on that topic, and with comic relief in mind, yes, AI can do things we cannot do. But can AI knock up his housekeeper and ruin his chances of changing the constitution and running for president? Of course not - only Arnold can do that.

    @sfoster, I've had that concern, as the legal structure changed over the years. Some lawyers have lost their jobs because of those changes but found work in other areas of law. As we discussed, change will come, and people must find ways to deal with it. History has shown that, while many will...

    @sfoster, OK. So we're now talking about people talking about topics on this forum. I see a trend emerging. :evil:

    The issue of a government giving taxpayers' money to others is a VERY political issue. But I agree it's not overtly political, and I'll go with whatever the management decides. Are we talking about people talking about something? Sounds like a plot for a movie.
