New text to speech models are incredible these days...

Again, we shouldnt replace actual voice actors for main dialog. But for generating thousands of lines of background chatter (which nobody would have time or resources to make anyway) LLM writing paired with text to speech could really help flesh out a living game world

I dont think LLMs will or should replace properly written dialogue.

Where they would shine is just generating inane background chatter. So instead of hearing an NPC say "i took an arrow to the knee", or "jesus christ be praised! Henry's come to see us!" 300 times, an LLM could generate some short one liners that are a bit more dynamic. It would go a long way to making the world feel more alive.

Newer versions of apt now have coloured text showing what will be installed (green) and what will be REMOVED (red)

Handy feature for someone like me who also makes mistakes

Not excusing the behaviour but I'd bet it's the amount of traffic people ~~often sit through~~ directly contribute to

You're not stuck in traffic... You are the traffic

The continental rubber on adidas shoes lasts forever....

The rubber on their top end shoes like takumi sen and pro 3 is only 1-2mm thick but i've hit 800-900km in them

Also i'm a pretty light person so i dont wear out the foam much

AI is fine if you know what you're doing and can correct the mistakes it makes (i.e. use it as fancy code completion)

I'm not a developer and i havent touched code for over 10 yrs, but when i heard about my company pushing AI tools on the devs, i thought exactly what you said. It should be a tool for experienced devs who already know what they're doing....

Lo and behold they did the opposite... They fired all the senior people and pushed AI on the interns and new grads.... and then expected AI to suddenly make the jr devs work like the expensive Sr devs they just fired...

Wtf

this is always a fun one for me because i see it in person every year. circuit races are great for the spectators

i joined the recon rides with some of the pro teams this afternoon.. it's insane how much stronger these guys are than your average club rider. these guys were laughing and chatting up the climb and i was doing almost my max 5min effort (~4.65W/kg) just to hang in with the group.

also, i followed mohoric on a descent! even the non-mohoric riders have such amazing descending skills.... on a short descent that i know quite well, i lost over 10 seconds gap to some AG2R riders
