    Image: Bad AI.

    Text: Bad AI.

    Source: Bad AI.

    Neither the name of the effect nor the story turn up any results on google.

    This is not a science meme, but instead a ā€œMy first AI memeā€.

      Surely it’d be easy to just find an actual stock photo to use here. But it doesn’t matter because the background just needed to be Whatever.

      That write-up is well worth the read.

        On your advice, I read it. Good essay. Yes, the image is Whatever, but the creative part for this post was the pun, so I still gave it an upvote because I haven’t heard it death.

      Also they all hold the bows completely wrong.

      Angled arm, turned the wrong side, wtf?

      Nah, wood is expensive with the tariffs and all. That’s just the new range staffer holding the target.

        That’s the intern not a staffer. Kind of you to assume they are people.

      I think he’s going for the live target holding a target.

      Yeah, so much so that people believe this meme is reality, even though google turns up not a single result for ā€œplus c bow effectā€ that has anything to do with archery. Neither does any google search on the story.

      The whole post is placebo, aka pure AI slop.

      source
  • ryedaft@sh.itjust.works ⁨8⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    If the second group performed ā€œfar betterā€ team the first group then this isn’t regression to the mean, is it? I would expect the gap to be much less or even eliminated but for the Plus C Bow group to do much better there should be something else at play, right?

    source
    • tetris11@feddit.uk ⁨5⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Yeah, plus the selection process was weird. Any gains attributed to the plus-C bow group just throws question to the initial rankings.

      They should have done a crossover trial, where group A is a random selection of archers initially getting no C bows, and then later getting them, and vice versa for group B. Paired t-tests, y’all!

      source
      • ryedaft@sh.itjust.works ⁨4⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Yeah, but the meme is a joke about how you can prove anything with regression to the mean. If all archers are equally good and we test them we would get varying results. If we then split them on performance and perform an intervention and test again then the ā€œpoor performingā€ group will do much better. Because it’s just random noise.
