  • to add to the DIY section of your comment - air dry clay, a set of basic clay working tools, and a set of acrylic paints (+ varnish for the acrylics) could be very fun. cheap air dry clay is cheap (i’ve seen 1kg go for ~$3), a basic set of tools and paints also won’t break the bank, and it’s absolutely amazing fun!

    even with 0 skill you can make nifty things - like minature foods (a blob? potato. cylinder? cucumber. ball? so many options here), simple figurines, animals, accessories for other things, candle holders - bascially, the only limit is your imagination.

    though if you do think that’d be a good idea one word of warning - air dry clay is not food safe, any cups, plates, or dishes made with it can only ever be decorational. (the only clay you can eat off is the kind that you need to fire, glaze, and fire again at +900°C)














  • sure maybe it was tested with data already known to the researchers, but that’s not a real world test, that’s still a fully controlled environment. and the researchers, being human, aren’t perfect, the data about what the AI was meant to predict could’ve slipped into the training data. using historic data to predict slightly less historic data is a good first step, and it’s of course exciting! but we’re not done here

    nobody can read AI code after its been trained, so until all possibility of human error can be fully disspelled by continuous testing it in real time and having the AI actually predict events that come to be - it’s a could, not a can.
