But considering limited resources, I find that this is a good demonstration of automation tools done right: employing them in parallel to humans to increase possible output so that as many people as possible can benefit from the information. And since none of the data/script is AI generated, it also isolates from the dangers of using generative models... This is my thinking at least.

Also, he didn't call it universally useless, that's a bad faith argument, buddy. They're basically a cost neutral production but with added value to any consumer who doesn't care about entertainment and just wants information (and who can't be bothered to read a wall of text). Not to mention that the use of an AI voice itself isn't unethical either. Just think about the value this brings to people with visual disabilities since they won't have to rely on their screenreader to parse information from a complex webpage. Also, speaking of Gamers Nexus, Steve does a great job of providing in-depth reviews but neither he, nor the mainline LTT channel could ever hope to cover enough power supplies to cover every unit that could be interesting for a consumer. Both can only cover the ones that they deem valuable content, this bypasses that restriction.

There are uncaring people and there are people that do their job correctly because they want to do their job in every industry.

Can confirm that walk in clinics tend to be pretty bad. They're just there as a stopgap, and to be fair they get a wide amount of clients who the whole STD/STI angle may be viable for. Its a good thing Wifey knows that markers and false positives are a thing in medicine.

There's a youtube community post from a few days ago with the same content.

The problem with using AI voices is that AI voices are typically used by content farms trying to make money by making low quality content, and the general census of AI is that it's prone to hallucinate. As sad as it is, by using AI voices, people will think that you're an untrustworthy content farm. You can't make people trust AI voices.

I am literally the only person in my friends group that has watched Reboot, I don’t even know if I’ve interacted with anyone that has watched it. Stoked as hell for this project.

The PSU LTT Labs post is really cool. The design is very pleasing, both the webpage and the slides. Keep it up, I’d love to see a version full of articles and data some day.

The problem with the AI voice is the lack of range. It talks in a generally monotonous way and at the end of sentences and pauses, the tone goes down, as it should, but it never goes up. So the tone only goes from mid to low, not to high. There is no sharp high tone for "but", "in order to", "not" "while" and so on.

One idea that would be cool for the Reboot masters once you get the machines working try out the RTX video super resolution! Then we could see if it can scale up the master tapes to higher resolutions further increasing quality if it works well. Worth a try right?

I think people are totally missing the point in the ML voice videos, these are not meant to be entertainment or even "watched" they exist to give the consumer concise easily accessible information. If you can't be arsed to read the article go watch this 5-10min video. I think the best way to view these videos is as literally "tools" if all you care about is say what cables the PSU comes with skip to that chapter in the video BOOM! IN

The reason is that its a constantly recording, unattended camera setup. And your only allowed to set one up with a permission slip from your city. For every instance you would park your car. But as of german legislation right now these types of cars violate civil laws and the dsgvo. Heck, for a couple of years its even legally required in germany and i think eu countries to have an instant cancellation button when you can 1 click sign contracts online.

I disagree that it was a dumb idea. They said a year or so ago that they would publish the findings of the investigation when they had it. Because the internet is dumb, if there wasn't a WAN show title stating that they have released those findings, there would be people that don't find it. With this video titled as it is, it is immediately able to be found with a basic google search, let alone a KZread search. The way they handled it - Luke bringing it up as a topic without the usual back and forth of "you took the good topics", followed by Luke then basically reading a statement without Linus saying anything (sticking to the script isn't his strong suit), earns nothing but respect from me. Everything else (no naming or bullying the people in question etc) is a mixture of legal requirement, and just basic human decency towards those people. So, at least from my perspective, well done LMG.

You're wrong about the scarjo thing. In the 80s, the producers of ghostbusters asked huey lewis to write the soundtrack to the film. They refused. So the film hired ray parker jr to do the theme instead and basically said "make this as close to huey lewis as you can". Huey lewis won the settlement.

The state of healthcare in Canada and the fact that doctors are moving to the US for better pay seems similar to us in Austria and Switzerland. In Austria, we used to have a very good health care system that has had its budget cut. So instead of waiting a few days for an appointment, you have to wait weeks or months. Most doctors are moving to Switzerland or becoming elective doctors because of the better rates. So GPs are becoming rarer and as almost all citizens here have health insurance, it is often better to go to an elective doctor and get a partial refund from your health insurance. This way you can get a same-day or same-week appointment and get up to 80% back

That's what unstable means. It may or may not work. And even if the distro works today, after updates, it may not work then either.

Glad to see the results of the 3rd Party Investigation and that being made public. I would have not titled the WAN show like that since it seems a bit misleading since it is not talked about live for a very good reason so I do not see the need to attract viewers to the show based on that, just my opinion. For the power supply channel, I honestly think there can be money in a channel type of like that if you are able to get past the initial low amount of views. The example I like to give is Vacuum Wars and how I watch almost every video they put out even though I have no intention of purchasing or recommending a vacuum to anyone at this moment. Having a host that has some energy to them and making the content watchable and rewatchable will be key in my opinion. Like at this point where the channel is now I do not see why someone would watch the video at all instead of clicking the link in the description to go to the LABs page. Unless the entirety of the LABs page is paywalled and the only way to access this information for free is from the KZread channel I do not see how the channel will be successful. I appreciate what you are doing for the space and wish you all the best of luck but have a huge question about the viability of the current path taken.
