Rewatching Battlestar Galactica right now and this one is just in meme šŸ•£

AeonFelis ,

I try to be kind to any machine I interact with. I donā€™t know how high its status will be once AI takes over.

MystikIncarnate ,

DAE want to be able to converse with their tech in natural language? Is that just me?

I kind of want an assistant to simply schedule things and let me know of information that I need as I need itā€¦ Itā€™s not something thatā€™s really possible with the current level of technology that we have, but itā€™s something Iā€™m hoping we get to. Right now, I canā€™t even tell my Google assistant to send a message using a specific chat app. I always get the reply that it ā€œcanā€™t do that yetā€. I keep trying because it says ā€œyetā€, hopeful that it will eventually gain the ability.

If I donā€™t specify an app, it tries to send the message by text (and frequently fails at doing that), and I donā€™t use text messaging.

This is just one example. I usually get relegated to tapping furiously on the screen to get to the point where I can engage the speech transcription on my keyboard on the phone while Iā€™m doing something that should have my full attentionā€¦ like driving.

Thereā€™s a lot of other small issues that I just wonā€™t get into right nowā€¦

Anyways, am I the only one? I get not wanting it, thatā€™s fair and fine. I wonā€™t judge anyone for their preference.

I am the same with all kind of iot devices. But with chatgpt I always write please and thank you. Just in case you know.

The self pay option that keeps urging you to grab your shit. I know you! Iā€™m doing it you stupid machine shut the fuck up, donā€™t you dare talk to me that way

chetradley ,

This is a great meme and all, but if a machine is telling you something out loud that is already being displayed on a screen, that feature most likely exists to help blind / visually impaired people.

A_Random_Idiot ,

Who cares about them anyway?

Not many people, judging from the amount of text messages my nearly blind relative gets demanding confirmations and such because they cant bother to call someone who is medically documented and who has informed them about their inability to do such things due to poor vision

Yes, even their fucking eye doctor

MystikIncarnate ,

I donā€™t know if it helps or not, but if they have Android, thereā€™s an app called audify, which will use the built in TTS to speak alerts aloud.

I have no doubt youā€™ve checked into such things, but I thought Iā€™d put it out there for you just in case it slipped under your radar.

Gestrid ,

This isnā€™t intended to sound insensitive and is meant as a question: donā€™t phones have accessibility features for the blind to help them read and reply to texts and do other stuff? (I mean, I know they do, but I donā€™t know yo what extent theyā€™re actually helpful.)

chetradley ,

Yes, iOS and Android have screen readers. I have two blind aunts and a blind uncle and none of them have issues with text messages.

There is a parking garage exit gate in my area that says ā€œdrive safelyā€ in a very ominous condescending voice. I donā€™t appreciate that at all.

midget247 ,

Awww drive safe? You know thatā€™s the man we done for speeding earlier!

Upvoted because gwahahaha

Bobmighty ,

Fuck AI and all. Iā€™m on board with that, sure. Divine being though? Nope, weā€™re animals and divinity isnt a thing.

MalachaiConstant ,

I interpreted it as a sarcastic exaggeration, like all animals are ā€œdivineā€ compared to machines

olafurp ,

ā€œPlease take all your products off the bagging areaā€ and other spoken words feels soo condescending.

Just do a ā€œdudā€ for when I scan ā€œdud dud dudā€ when I do something wrong and ā€œdeet deetā€ when I need to weigh stuff. When Iā€™m bagging just leave me the f alone.
