Every time a attend one of @jossmo.bsky.social Joss Morken's speeches, apart from admiring the depth of insight, I love how he uses photos to accompany references. I think we should all do that in conferences. Emphasizes the real people behind quotations, and also shows how many women there are.
Τώρα πλέον είναι και στα ελληνικά το bsky. Φαίνονται ΟΚ προς το παρόν.
#zerosubtitles: deliberately omitted #subtitles for utterances considered to be easily understood without them, intentionally incomprehensible, or functioning as sound effects. The decision to omit can be made by the subtitler or the creator.

#AIdubbing is not for all kinds of content. Definitely not when the quality is like this.
Would this film be dubbed in Brazilian Portuguese if it wasn't for AI? No idea.
Does the film attract more viewers now? Maybe.
Is Prime Video's reputation taking a hit? No doubt.

A harder-to-detect AI-generated hallucination in #DeepResearch outputs, where truth is intricately woven with distortions, making misinformation seamlessly blend in. Detecting it requires expertise and close scrutiny.

It's either this, or they are numb, just watching as if this is happening elsewhere and it doesn't affect them. Even feeling Schadenfreude for public servants suddenly out of a job?
Gracias, amigo.
This prompt is quite simple. Elsewhere you express the view that prompts must be carefully crafted. Haven't we reached the end of prompt-engineering? Is it enough to prompt "Ask me what you need to know to accomplish the task", and then answer all its questions? Any new insights on this?
Xosé: Renato dice que el ejemplo lo descubriste tú. Por eso te preguntaba a ti: ¿no había ni puntuación ni comillas en el original? Es que influye mucho en la comprensión, por lo menos a mí me costó entender que las cuatro palabras se refería a esta frase
@xosecastro.bsky.social (horrible handlesss!
Interesante comparación entre DeepSeek y ChatGPT por R. Beninato.
Translate "Four simple words... You are not alone" in Spanish.
@xosecastro.bsky.social, una pregunta: En el original, la puntuación estaba así? Sin comillas en "You are not alone" ¿Sin dos puntos antes?
Handlers are terrible!
"It's not film, it's a new thing". What is it? What is it's purpose? Does it communicate something?
Ancient Greek was written without spaces, scriptio continua, so I don't understand what this is about 😁

Since it's physical, it will most probably be local Singapore time. See you there, hopefully!

Τελικά το "κλαρί" δεν μου έκανε, γιατί δεν ταίριαζε η σημασία "βγάζω στο κλαρί". Οπότε έβαλα "κλαρίνα".
Ούτε για κλαρίνο κάνω.
Το #λογοπαίγνιο της ημέρας:
Yo no tengo las palabras apropiadas como Clarita, ni tan claras. Valga la redundancia.
Εγώ δεν τα λέω ωραία σαν την Κλάρα, μόνο για το κλαρί κάνω. Χάλια λογοπαίγνιο.
#pun with the name Clara and "clear" words.
Precioso ✨ Me encantaría leer el artículo, así que si tienes suscripción y te sobran gift articles, nos lo regalas 😍
Es tan idiomático que a veces parece otro idioma. Estaba pensando que lo puedes escuchar solo en Barranquilla o en una serie como esta, muy local. Me encanta tener acceso a un lenguaje así en un mundo tan globalizado, e intento dar algo de color en la traducción.
