  but the I in AI it’s actually a lowrcase L, so it’s short for Algorithm

    It kinda annoys me that the lowercase L glyph is taller than capital A. I don’t mind the difference, but cap-height should be taller than lowercase letters.

  The difference being?

    I’m guessing he’s saying companies are still using the same human written code, but since AI is sexy right now and is being used to describe even simple programming logic, everything is “powered by AI”

      And in 2013 the key word for marketing was algorithm. The YouTube algorithm. The reddit algorithm. Etc.

      That was true like 5 years ago, but now companies are just irresponsibly calling out to LLMs as a function without proper safe guards instead.

      Even more likely is that AI’s that write code are trained on human created code. So they aren’t coming up with new, novel ideas to problems in most cases, they are just a far more advanced “copy and paste from StackOverflow”

      I've heard this talk where I work. Senior plebs describing things that are obviously algorithms as AI. And this of course means we had AI before it was cool.

      Nothing new here. Buzzwords are the only thing senior managers can understand.

    That’s exactly the point. It’s just how companies market their products nowadays.

      I mean, true AI isn’t really a thing yet. People have been using AI wrong for a very long time now. Even ChatGPT isn’t real AI.

  Is this part of a Hi-Lo implementation for blackjack? (Also, ewww mixed types)

  source

  • obosob@feddit.uk ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Yeah, just use a char for card and test

    if(card < '7') count++;
    else count--;
    

    Or something, don’t mix types.

      The cards should just be numbers, and an enum should be used for display names

  Is the litmus test for programmers. When they start referring to “AI” as a clearly defined concept, you know they’re artlessly making shit up for a quick buck.

  I hope I’m not being stupid right now, but is that the actual algorithm for counting cards in blackjack?

  source

  • rho_@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Half of it. This gives you the running count. You need to also keep track of “number of decks in shoe” -“number of cards dealt since last shuffle”/52 to tell you how many decks are left in the shoe, then divide the running count by the number of decks left to gove you a true count.

    True count higher than 1? Start increasing your bet accordingly.
