    I am not afraid of the raise of artificial intelligence. I am more concerned about the raise of natural stupidity.

    Not my original thought, so I should add "and the usage of AI by unwise and ignorant people".

    Hopefully, AI will be developed in such a way to represent not only the ultimate intellect, but also the ultimate wisdom.

    Call me skeptical about how humans use knowledge.

    I'm not overly concerned about terminators blending in with us. You can pass a person you suspect of being a machine a mobile phone and ask them to complete an image captcha, it’s fairly straightforward.

    @Frank21
    Why must people put headache-inducing noise like that in the background of their videos? It makes it completely unwatchable.


    @ADAM

    It's shocking that they're using Reddit posts without fact-checking them in their A. I model! No wonder chatbots have been using racial slurs and telling people to off themselves. I mean what did they expect?

    Sorry about that @geekaveli. Do you want me to use AI to remove the background noise from the video?
    Waiting for this comp to finish has make some people slightly tetchy 🙂

    Hey! You found another good use for A.I

    Using it to remove all that annoying background music actually made his video watchable. Thanks for the suggestion. If only YouTube had it as an option on their site, instead of having to download the video and faff around signing up to online A.I websites, using temp email addresses and whatnot to get it done.

    Here’s a headache-friendly version of that guy's video for anyone else who’s interested:

    Anyway, I’m off to find that episode of Red Dwarf where everything’s in reverse. Hopefully, it’s as funny as I remember it being. Then I’m going to advance forward 8 hours by saving this game we’re all trapped in.

    Peace!

    If only YouTube had it as an option on their site?... what do you want a chocolate cake with beans on top? I always feel like I'm more like Duane Dibbley than Ace, aka... Ace Hole.

    An AI rewritten Red Dwarf episode?

    We've predicted technology in movies often. We've set goals and achieved them.

    I see no reason to dispute writers, scientists and tinfoil hats who believe we will be the creators of our own extinction. Wether it's a virus, zombie apocalypse, nuclear war or AI.

    @Worda

    I have some spare time to sort this out.

    I've downloaded everyone's images except for ADAM ( @d0gg0d ) because their pages have expired. I've DM'd asking for fresh links. Once they have, I'll re-upload the images and make the relevant topics so voting can take place.

    Reading through this thread, it was agreed that prizes would be issued for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, for best calendar. As well as best image per each calendar month.

    For Best Image That Month
    I think it would make sense to create 12 separate threads, one for each month, only displaying the pages for that month. People can vote for best image in the comments

    For Best Calendar (1st, 2nd and 3rd place)
    A separate thread for each whole calendar, titled with that person’s name. And a link to another thread where people can write whose calendar they’re giving their first, second, and third vote to.
    This will limit duplicate votes, make it easier to calculate, and solve the problem of everyone voting for one person's calendar, or a lack of total votes.

    There are 6 entries total for best calendar.

    Other Methods
    I did think we could just total up the number of votes per best image, and decide that way who came 1st, 2nd and 3rd for best calendar. But I feel that this is unfair to those who have created a consistent theme throughout and for that reason this would be a bad idea.

    Other considerations
    Once they can, how many days are we giving the community to vote?

    Took 3 hours. But it's all done. All the threads can be found here:

    Vote here for Best Calendar 2025! (With links to vote for best page)

    Hope everyone's happy with this.

    Are we all voting as well? I figure we should be allowed providing we don't vote for ourselves, right?

    Anyway, Good Luck!

    @geekaveli why did you ignore my calendar? 😅 It's okay though, don't think it was prize-worthy anyway.

    But great work and good luck to all.

    🙂

    @3dnoob

    Apologies. I didn't see your post when I skimmed through this thread saving images as it didn't have any thumbnails.

    I've uploaded your calendar and edited all the topics to include your calendar pages. I knew I was bound to f*ck something up 🙁

    If anyone see's anything else I've done wrong please highlight it here.

    Many Thanks.

    @geekaveli ah, okay. I should have posted the images separately as well. Again, thanks for your efforts.

    Worda, the person who started the Calander competition and offered to put 165,000 points in the prize pool has been banned from this site. I assume those points for the competition prize have disappeared along with them? The other 35k points was to be donated from other site user’s once the winners were announced.

    You can read more about Worda’s banning here:

    Any suggestions on how we move forward?
