    What gets real crazy is when you start thinking about deconfliction of launch path/sequencin...

    Meh, Big Sky/Space theory...what could go wrong!?

    (/s) Also, do TBMs or ICBMs have ADS-B out? Or just in? Or not supposed to at all but it got included because that military didn't pay to remove that feature? (/s)

    Looks like Israel was just fibbing about waiting until after passover.  Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear facility locations just happened.

    Artificial Intelligence: Discussion and demonstrations

    @Danger41 is spot on. There is a lot of hype and misunderstanding about what AI is and about what it can do. The discussion about artificial general intelligence (AGI) is more theoretical. IMO AGI is not possible, because no matter how sophisticated the output seems, a computer is still just a really really fast abacus. In order to admit a computer into the realm of the "intelligent" you simultaneously need to admit an abacus into the same category. I don't think many people would be comfortable with that leap.

    Really the whole discipline suffers from having ever been associated with the word "intelligence" in the first place as it begets consciousness, which a computer can never be.

    What AI is going to do is make a lot of previously seemingly intractable problems solvable, but all it really is at rock bottom is advanced math (statistics) being applied to lots of high-dimensional data. Computers are good at solving things like that. People not so much. Once you understand that, the magic disappears.

    Perhaps because AGI needs an input, rather than already having a purpose. A purpose which is its reason or input-into-life's-abacus. 

    Also, any self-fulfilling purpose of an AGI is just scary because of its potential, speed, and limited understanding/control...which is what makes Terminator series so entertaining.

    Begs the question: does a street-smart AI = AGI? Or book smart?

    Logging Training Sim Time (C-130J)

    I’d have to defer to the sim cert team at LRF.  My knowledge dates to 2020.  That’s the last time I was in the know with those guys.  They’ve since PCS’d on.

    Well ain’t that about a bitch!  I got it put on my ticket in 2019.  Seems dumb not to have the equivalence.   Anyone here tried to get a 382J type recently? It felt like every all C-130E/H was utterly unique, while every J is exactly the same still.  Can’t see how a 382J would be any different than a C-130J.  I’ll bet it’s the block upgrades.  6.0 and 8.x are treated as different quals by the USAF.

    Ummmmmm.......no.

    I will leave this post up for two reasons. 

    One, as a warning for others not to post any AI and/or anime!  Real tits, or none at all!

    And two, for Brother Biff to submit his pick!

     

    Fair enough. We should live in reality! Or as real as it can get before we're absorbed into the internet.

    I think even without the DEI cert, she could see this guy is roided out of his gourd.

    Don't need a certificate to see that's not inclusive!!  Gotta get swol'-bro!

    Also, could go diversity route...could be HGH, not roids'.
