Currently learning #Rust and rejecting big tech.

My AI voice clone fooled my family, bank and Evan Spiegel. And my video clone + a script from ChatGPT made a pretty decent TikTok.

We’re all going to be just fine.

My latest video and column on the crazy—and creepy—world of voice and video AI.

I Cloned Myself With AI. She Fooled My Bank and My Family.

Our columnist replaced herself with AI voice and video to see how humanlike the tech can be. The results were eerie.

This is exactly what NOT to use generative #AI for. Here they are avoiding giving PoC jobs - and there are models to be hired, to be sure - and instead accomplishing “power rangers diversity” w/ pie charts measures and algorithms rather than just humanity. Shameful and lazy Levi’s.

“Levi's will start using AI-generated people in order to increase the diversity among its models.”

Levi's to Use AI-Generated Models to 'Increase Diversity'

Characterized as a way for it to further its diversity, equity, and inclusion goals.

Wooooooooooooooow. Bonnie Raitt is an "unknown blues singer"?!?

Does everyone at the Daily Mail live under a rock??

Wait, that probably should've been a rhetorical question...

-17C. C as in Crisp. This is what my morning view was.

There is a menu option to "Show Line History View" in File History | ...
Is that what you are looking for?
@tkoeppen Have you tried the GitLens extension? That has a search features.
@gaveen @andreagrandi @jhaand
Yes, my understanding is that the IDE handles the rendering of hints while the extensions provide the content. They can be very helpful 👍

@andreagrandi @gaveen @jhaand
If the setting is in the top-level JSON then inlay hints are controlled for all languages.

This will restrict the setting to Rust:
"[rust]": {
"editor.inlayHints.enabled": "offUnlessPressed"
},

Inlay hints depend on language extensions. Typescript doesn't seem to enable them by default but rust-analyzer does.

@andreagrandi @gaveen @jhaand
YW! Wonder why this isn't the default config..
