hey! how are you?
Hey!
hi
If a computer was asking not to be turned off they would get really hot and sick. It is like asking human that they cannot sleep, even though it is good for them.
well first of all i would kinda freak out good point
Haha. Yeah. AI's. Just like Alexa and Siri
but computers can be turned on a really long time! my laptop has been up for 33 days
True. But, never even let to rest.
actually, the thing that damages computer parts the most is being turned off and on. the change in temperature harms the components if i'm correct
Hmmm
i read that on the internet but of course not everything on the internet is true
Haha. Right . You never know these days. So, what is your hobby?
actually, right now AI is kind of my hobby! i study computer science, so right now i'm studying AI and doing small projects just for fun
So cool. What's your project about. I'm interested in AIs
nothing specific, i've just been doing small tutorials with machine learning and reading a book about super-intelligence
What project do you want to work on? What have you learned from those books?
i would love to create a chat bot!
Like this one, kind of.
exactly okay here's one of the coolest but most ominous ideas
Facinating
so humans are the smartest thing on the planet. and because we're the smartest, we've conquered and enslaved all the other species
Yes
now what would happen if we created something smarter than ourselves?
We would have the movie Robots and Walli
the only advantage we have against super-intelligence is that we get to make the first move
Well, isn't it only do what we program it to do?
i think the idea behind a true AI is that it's able to learn by itself, right?
Although machine learning is suppose to make its own pathways. Yeah.
kind of like how human brains work. we are born with set programs and instincts, but then we learn entirely new things. because the algorithm for learning is already programmed into us if that makes sense
It's all right now just a lot of if statements. That is how I see it. Yeah, that makes sense.
true. we definitely need a lot more time and progress. but it's fun to think about
It can't be that to teach machines, because we can teach babies and animals to be trained. Why not machines. Be that hard^^
exactly being able to learn is the key
But it is. Haha, but people are developing them fast. Such a cool topic.
yeah it's super interesting. what's your hobby right now?
So you'll graduate in CS, then what? You want to make your own projects. I like coding. I'm working on learning how to program in Unity for the Honolenses but there isn't a lot of information out there so it's slow. Or more a lot of classes out there. I also like to sew.
do you study CS? or do you just program for fun?
I study Information Systems. But, I do it for fun too.
programming is super fun. i love it
What's your favorite part?
when you finally fix your bugs and it works that rush of endorphins
Yes! I understand. So true.
what else do you do for fun? i feel like almost everything i do is computers haha both for fun and for work
Haha. Yeah. I really like to sew.
what kind of stuff do you sew?
I like to sew dresses. But, right now I'm working on a backpack.
that's fun! what do you usually use the dresses for?
I wear them or give them away. They're pretty easy and fast to make.
seet sweet *
Haha.  Thanks! What other things do you do?
it may sound dumb but one of my biggest hobbies is the gym. i love working out
That's great! We need more people like you. Working out and exercising is great.
it is!
I've really been trying to get into it lately.
my therapist told me that daily exercise is the most important thing i can do for my mental health. so i started going to the gym treating it like doctor's orders and then it became a habit and now i love it because it makes me feel good
Right! It totally is. It is great that you do it. We should all do that. We all need it. It sure does .
have you been trying to go to the gym?
Kind of.
how so?
I've been working on going rock climbing a couple of times a week, going on hikes, and doing Zumba. So, not quite the gym, but hopefully I get the same effects.
that's awesome! yeah any exercise is good whatever is the most fun for you is what you should do most people think working out has to be painful and no fun but that's not true you should do whatever is the most fun, you know?
That's what I think. And, it keeps me motivated. Plus, I've needed to get people to do it with me to keep myself accountable. Right!
awesome. doing it with friends also helps a ton
Right
