И снова у меня на одну гиковскую железку стало больше. На этот раз это PineTime :blobfoxflowerhair:

Пока один жирный недостаток: Он не умеет мерить сердцебиение в фоне. Соответственно никакой мне статистики в фоне, в том числе и сна :bleba:

За то сам датчик довольно точный, за это его можно похвалить.

А остальные функции часов он выполняет:
- Время и дату показывает, на поднятие руки срабатывает исправно;
- Шаги в фоне считает;
- Таймеры, будильники, секундомеры заводит;
- Уведомления с телефона показывает (местами криво, в основном когда в уведомлениях есть эмодзи);
- Музыку переключает, но жаль что не сразу на основном экране, а через меню.

Кстати, часиков у меня целых два - для нормисов с защитой от влаги и dev kit.

В целом, ничего не мешает мне зашить в dev версию часов сторонюю версию InfiniTime с работой датчика в фоне, потому что часы - опенсорсные.

За подгон спасибо @medvedych <3

I’ll catch downvotes, whatever.

Is there too much hype in the AI space? Yes. Is it still absolutely incredible, the advancements we’ve made since 4chan made gpt2 racist?

We got LLMs that can one-shot code up simple games like snake and minesweeper. I can throw 12 pdfs at a single prompt and ask which of them talks about an idea that might not be explicitly mentioned in any of them and not only can it identify it, it can summarize it and expand on it.

Am I sick of seeing it shoved into everything? Yes. Is it basically magic? Also yes.

Yeah definitely this. The improvements are insane compared to 10 years ago. It’s just annoying that techbro’s and CEOs have decided that it’s the next big thing and will shove it into anything. To too many people AI is a tool that’ll solve any problem, even if it’s usually a very wasteful and unpredictable solution.

Luckily we seem to be hitting the hype plateau and people are getting increasingly sceptical. I’m just hoping it won’t lead to another AI winter. There’s still plenty to gain and figure out, but we don’t need the insane hype that exists now.

The funniest part is Hollywood thinking it’ll shave a fraction off their costs, and not obliterate their entire industry. We now have a CGI studio that runs on your video card. (Or at least everyone can see the path toward making that. The ingredients for this machine are a pirated movie collection, their Wikipedia articles, and obscene amounts of computer power. So it’s not like we could stop people from rolling their own.) You feed in some greenscreen footage, and out comes a whimsical enchanted forest or whatever. Currently still gloopy and samey… but right now is the worst it will ever be, again. And the tools that take off will be the ones that let humans guide the idiot robot around those details.

It’ll still take work to make anything worthwhile, but it won’t take an army of animators eighteen months, let alone a set, a crew, and a cast. The next big gay cartoon will come out of fucking nowhere. And it’ll be cheap enough that it won’t live or die based on merch.
