What’s next you tech bro wankers, is AI going to drink the pint for me?
… just when you thought they couldn’t force AI into any more things. The epitome of a solution in search of a problem
Man. I sure wish this tap needed an internet connection to function…
and stops working when us-east-1 burns down
Are you me? I’ve never heard anyone else complain about us-east-1
Don’t forget the subscription.
There is an I and an A but there is no “AI” in “IPA.” This ad must’ve been made by an AI.
I asked the AI to be sure:
on won what letter does the “AI” start in “IPA”?
The “ai” sound in IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) starts with the letter “a” in the combination “aɪ” which represents the diphthong sound like the “long i” in words such as “buy,” “aisle,” and “isle.” The IPA sequence “aɪ” begins with the letter “a” and is followed by the letter “ɪ” to form this diphthong sound. So, the “AI” sound in IPA starts on the letter “a.” This diphthong consists of two vowel sounds pronounced in one syllable, starting with an open front vowel [a] and gliding to a near-close near-front vowel [ɪ].
So, it’s confirmed. The “AI” is there where “IPA” has an “A” followed by an “I”.
that’s a real stretch, lol. i see what it’s getting at, but it doesn’t work in context.
Proof that this AI fad is ass backwards.
there is no “AI” in “IPA”
…because they’re still in the process of putting it there.
We need to go back to the time when comupting power was limited so everything needed to be hella efficient, cuz I feel like we have so much of it that we don’t know what to use it on.
This is what bugs me about our renewables transition. We should eventually be getting cheaper electricity due to solar overabundance.
Instead, these data centers are gobbling up every free Watt the grid produces, not even paying premium for it, and we’re soaking up the costs due to the price of the demand.
This then incentivizes anyone with a home solar setup to never give back to the grid at all, because otherwise you’re feeding this assholes
I’m convinced this is on purpose. Politicians always say “we can’t get rid of dirty energy until we have enough clean energy to replace it.” Suddenly, when clean energy is good enough to replace it, businesses decide this shitty inefficient technology is needed, and it gobles up any power available. This creates a situation where we can never remove dirty energy because, no matter how much clean energy is produced, all the energy is also consumed.
I can’t know for sure this is on purpose, but the timing sure is convenient for them. It makes the excuse to never regulate dirty energy perpetual.
This then incentivizes anyone with a home solar setup to never give back to the grid at all, because otherwise you’re feeding these assholes
In Denmark you’re paying to give back to the grid anyway.
Modern statistical tools are sufficient to simulate and model the fermentation process, I don’t even know what AI would even contribute here…
I asked an LLM client to name my last batch of homebrew. It suggested, “Phresh Pilsner”. My 90 year old grandma would think that’s lame AF.
That is not a name I would order even if it was half the price of the other beers.
I’ve tried using LLMs to name games for game jams and wow it’s bad. It tends to recommend almost exclusively alliteration. There’s nothing creative or interesting that comes out of it.
i have found that random wikipedia articles are a good way to find a name for beer if nothing comes to mind
That would actually be a pretty good marketing line for a trad ale - “No AI bollocks, just beer”.
“Welcome to now.”
This might be the most worthless statement in human history.
I just started watching the new King of the Hill season and I gotta say it’s pretty good! Hank’s already got great lines like “I shouldn’t need to call tech support to make a burger.” Which is sort of how I feel about this ad.
Now that’s a drinking problem.
I’ll see myself out.
Take my stinking upvote with you.
AI ruins everything.
semi-related reminder that dell provides servers and tech to the IDF
That is such a cringe ad.
If you follow the homebrewing socials world there was a flurry of AI vs human beer recipe videos and posts a while ago.
in short, yes most of these Ai tools can spit out a workable beer recipe, but as expected it’s more or less just the average of multiple published recipes and not particularly special, and if you ask it to tweak the recipe for a particular quality it falls apart quickly due to a lack of source data for the effects of all possible variables.
US Copyright Office ruled that AI generated content is not eligible for copyright.
Therefore, AI generated beer is actually Free Beer!
This is an interesting legal strategy. Let’s see how it goes.
People can sell, idk—example—strawberries but they don’t have a “copyright” to them (we will not delve into the discussion of copyright genome sequences here). Unfortunately, copyright not being applicable doesn’t make things free when we look at the existing market.
Hello, I’m here to dive into the discussion of copyright genome sequences
“Not bad.” He burped, burped again. “Fizzy, though?”
“Because it’s fast acting. It was ditch water an hour ago. We sieved it, brought it up to room temp, dumped in the culture. It’s live, too—add some precursor, it’ll come back. Survives in your urine. Just save some, you want to make more.”
“Communist beer?” Hubert, Etc said. The best bon mot he could scrounge.
He was better when he had time to think.
“Nazdarovya.” She clicked her cup against his and drained it, loosing a bone rattling belch when she finished. She gave her chest a thump and scared out smaller burps, refilled the glass.
“If it comes out in pee,” Hubert, Etc said, “what happens if someone adds the precursor to the sewers? Will it turn to beer?”
She gave him a look of adolescent scorn. “That would be stupid. Once it’s diluted it can’t metabolize precursor. Flush and it’s just pee. The critters die in an hour or two, so a latrine won’t turn into a reservoir of long lived existential threats to the water supply. It’s just beer.” Burp. “Fizzy beer.”
Hubert, Etc sipped. It was really good. Didn’t taste like piss at all. “All beer is rented, right?” he said.
“Most beer is rented. This is free. You know: ‘free as in free beer.’” She drank half the cup, spilling into her beard. It beaded on the crinkly refugee stuff. “You don’t come to a lot of Communist parties.”

Great, now it’s gonna hallucinate pouring me a beer and I’m gonna get into a fight with a beer tap again.
IPA without AI is just P …?
Kind of like McDonalds ice cream macine?
They probably fancy a cute little 9.99$ subscription before you could use said machine. That you would have to buy first, of course
"It all starts with data, data, data, data. No company on Earth stores or computes more data than Dell today. We have a treasure trove, our customers have a treasure trove of their information.”

Just say it, man, “we have a treasure trove of our customers’ information”.
I would rather drink the P.
I am sure shareholders are ecstatic about this development
This is the dumbest. Like even AI would say this is dumb. I’d ask it but then I would be complicit in global resource abuse! Nope… just going to human type this is the dumbest.
DELLicious
Is this a joke? 😅
Recently saw a robot bar while in vacation. I didn’t try it. The first thing in my mind was his crappy the alcohol pours were going to be.
