I really hate shit like the first quote because willows are incredible trees. They’ve also been super useful to humanity for tens of thousands of years, from everything from baskets to aspirin. You can chop off a willow branch and stick it in the ground and it grows a new tree. Try that with oak (although oaks are also cool).
Whoever wrote that knows nothing about trees. They just thought, “bendy weak not-bendy stronk.” Oh not a modern, commercial timber species, must suck. Drives me nuts they pretend to be “men of the land” then say some stupid bullshit like that. It doesn’t make them sound hard. A stone age man could make a fishing net out of that willow that would feed his family for a year. Fuck outta here.
Just spitballing but you’d have to align the desired shape somehow, perhaps with a singular value decomposition. Once its transform was normalized you could compare its shape, or perhaps its convex hull, with a database of banned shapes.
The problem is this is pretty easy to defeat (by adding extra sprues and spikes to the object, breaking it into two shapes, etc) and the more aggressive you get with the check the more you risk false positives.
An AI training set would involve creating a dataset of all the banned shapes, then generating tens of thousands of permutations of them however you believe people might try to trick it. Ultimately the AI would lock onto some small feature of the shape that scores it as positive, perhaps something trivial. That also leads to weird false positives. This also creates an arms race as people figure out what that feature is subvert it.
This problem is much harder in 3D than in 2D (currency). Since you can also cut, file, and glue shit that comes out of a 3D printer later I don’t think this is a solvable problem. Like most gun control measures in the USA it appears to be aesthetics.
You could also just aggressively go false positive all over the place and say “fuck the users”, with exceptions for cops. This is basically the USA’s approach to drones.
What’s the sound of Frank Oz clapping?
Yeah this is an extremely thin wrapper on GPT4All, literally just feeding in the above prompt. I’m not knocking the author for trying/sharing this but you’d probably be better off just installing GPT4All. That said, do you think this would have kept Ted out of prison?
You: The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
Model: Honestly, I think the whole Industrial Revolution thing has just been a total mess for humanity as a whole. Like, what was supposed to be some kind of progress or advancement ended up causing way more problems than it solved. And don’t even get me started on all the environmental and social issues that came with it… ugh, it’s like we took two steps forward but then tripped over our own feet and fell back a few paces.
The low men.
I watched a program about Tangier Island, Maryland. The main street frequently has ankle deep water now. They are all Trumpers and are convinced it’s just erosion, but want the government to step in and fix it somehow.
So there you go. People can literally be standing in water and not believe it’s happening.
