The Duke of Wellington in Glasgow is similar, if the cone is ever removed it is rapidly replaced by ‘revellers’..
There’s a twist this week though.

Currently using AI to help make changes to a script that a programmer wrote. the AI is helping present options that would need to be changed by editing the batch file.
AI also added a help feature to explain the options. So far the updated script is working, slight tweaks are being made as I think of more things that can be done.
I thought AI was brilliant on Tuesday night/Wed morning. Quiet superb in fact.
I checked before bed of the wind speeds, due to my half cover. AI did it’s thing and told me of a calm night, 10mph wind speeds. Great AI result, as winds were such that the half cover partially blew off (for only the second time in 7 1/3 years), and my shed door blew open, for only the second time in nearly 12 years. Great one AI. Tell me/propaganda me again what the weather is going to be like in 30 years time? lol

Which “AI”. There are many many models. You seem to keep using the wrong one, or not writing the prompt correctly. Who told you “AI” is used for long term forecasts?
I took a video of a tensile tester with a digital Display during a test. On this particular model there’s no monitor output to display a force/extension graph but there are digital displays that change as the force/extension values change during the test. The challenge for the robot was then to scan the video and read the values for f/e in each frame and output them to a table.
No joy using standard Copilot at least (if we’re including Copilot as an AI tool)
That sounds a brilliant use of AI if you can get it to work. Early versions struggled with any form of text. I suspect video might be a similar challenge.
Have you tried asking it it to simply describe a video to see it it can even interpret the format?
Yes, I agree with that, clearly I am using the wrong one.
You seem to pounce on my every critique of AI. Is there a particular reason for that?
When I get half a tick I’ll try to find some other software that will chop each frame into something like a PPT slide and then try to analyse the slides.
Basic Copyalot doesn’t like video files MP4 for example …

I don’t.
Carry on…….

Spent more time with ai today, Gemini broke the code it generated itself last week.
I ended up using Claude for Coding, i trained it on what it had learned from the code made in Gemini. It suggested a new approach and structured the script into separate files to make it easier to edit.
All I wanted is a way to perform visual comparison of ground truth images that have no defects and taken at higher quality settings on a console against images using a performance profile that can introduce artefacts in 3D models and textures in the Unreal Engine with various rendering modes such as FSR + Frame Gen.
Nor me!

to be fair, I’m getting lost as well. I’ve gone so far down this rabbit hole that there is no chance of me getting back out.
fixed grammar - damn rabbit hole

More work stuff. However, I took a break and got GPT (Claude) to remake a game that I played on the ZX Spectrum called System 15000
Now, I’m playing around in an app to calculate fuel costs for trips based on the fuel (pulling in latest fuel prices), A-B and distance and a few other things.

I told Waze to take me to a destination today, so Gemini told me all about the place I wanted to go to, no directions. The infotainment centre also butts in on my conversations telling me random things. Voice activated all this, it’s going nuts or I am with it all.

It’s smoke and mirrors. GPT’s are little more than stochastic parrots.
