I struggle with the concept of multiple ”forms“ of English.

As any fule kno, there are two types of English. There is English, and there is Wrong.

I do wish someone would tell that awful Gates man.

I have just enjoyed a film by which I was in equal measure astonished and inspired when it came to the Abbey Cinerama in Liverpool when I was 10.

2001, a space odyssey.

I’m not at all sure I understand it any better now than in 1968, but I still very much enjoyed it. It was amusing to see what they got wrong (bases on the moon, no mobile phones) and right (AI and iPads).

it is undoubtedly the most outstanding cinematographic example of AI-going-wrong

AI really is stupid!
I mean how do the rods move when the wheels don't or why does the cab have diesel controls on a steam engine. The preservationists would love some of that stuff that turns heavily rusty steel into highly polished rods and what about the crane lifting the complete loco with two straps and nothing holding the tender.
Bah humbug.
I really must get out more and stop looking at this crap it's doing ma heid in.....

Heard a discussion on the radio about how people already working in the AI industry ? are leaving as they start to realise how bloody dangerous it's becoming and don't want to be involved !
There was a brief discussion on the GER society forum about a you tuber making a historical railway documentary using bloody AI the complaint being that it had distorted or made up images and scenes that never existed, but people ignorant of the facts will take it as true !
What you can guarantee is the likes of China, Russia, N. Korea etc. using it if not already for all the wrong reasons, and that is not a conspiracy theory.
We'll all ways hear the good it can do etc. etc. but it will cause more problems than the human race can cope with in time !
Now where's the horse and cart ? I've got to go shopping ! :D

As alluded to above, this is an absolute waste of time and more so of the earth's resources given how much power AI servers absorb.

And what do I want AI for? I have a functioning brain - at least I think so. :eek: :))
