Canada•Refugee advocates want Canada to make exemption for U.S. transgender asylum claimsEnglish
5·11 months agoExcellent idea
Nothing. Waterloo is a fine place. I lived there for quite a while. But, I’ve been in Kitchener for 30 years, so when I found the “official” Kitchener page, I followed it. Just thought I’d wave to see if anyone else was here.

Ya just gotta wonder how the cetacean one got on the books in the first place. I mean, was somebody running around randomly impregnating whales with stolen sperm at some point?

AI@lemmy.ml•On Catastrophic Forgetting and Mode Collapse in Generative Adversarial NetworksEnglish
3·2 years agoInteresting paper that points out the likelihood that extensive use of generative AI on the web will eventually cause theses models to collapse. The likely outcome is even wilder hallucinations and eventually, gibberish.
What about the Regions, like York Region, Waterloo Region, etc? Would it make sense to have lemmy communities for them, too?

Wow this Lemmy Exists!•Singularity | Artificial Intelligence (ai) & Technology - This sublemmy is a place for sharing news and discussions about artificial intelligence and core developments of humanity’s technologyEnglish
1·3 years agoI’m reading about applications for AI in safety related control systems for machinery. Finding clear guidance on risk assessment for AI systems has been quite difficult. I’d like to talk to anyone who has experience in this area.

Thanks! Poodles have expectations, if you know what I mean. They also have this way of looking you up and down when you disappoint them. That look that lets you know you’re not worthy. It doesn’t last, thankfully. Our first poodle, Scooter, used to wait for me when I went on business trips. He’d greet me enthusiastically when I came home, and then snub me for a couple of hours by turning his back on me, ignoring me, even leaving the room. He just wanted me to know that these unexplained absences from the household were simply unacceptable. 🤣🤣 Loved that kid hard. Miss him still.
