<div dir="ltr"><div>Speaking of Ai. A youtube video I watched the other day says that a battle bot named Honest Abe might be one of the first mostly autonomous bots for battle bots. It some house uses machine learning and machine vision to make it's way around the pit. It's surreal seeing this 200 pound machine be a better driver than humans. Sounds like something you might keep an eye on. Anyone know more on the story? the video only said the judges were debating if it'd be safe to try it. Some other bot makers got a bot to self drive and it made it to the semi finals before being yeeted out of the arena.</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Dec 18, 2022 at 10:08 AM Tom Johnson <<a href="mailto:jtjohnson555@gmail.com">jtjohnson555@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Subscribed to too many listservs<div dir="auto"><br><div dir="auto">=======================<br>Tom Johnson<br>Inst. for Analytic Journalism<br>Santa Fe, New Mexico<br>505-577-6482<br>=======================</div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Dec 18, 2022, 9:56 AM Gillian Densmore <<a href="mailto:gil.densmore@gmail.com" target="_blank">gil.densmore@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>How on earth do you find these things? lol. <br></div><div>And two AI links in a row?</div><div> are we sure you're not a bot? :P</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Dec 18, 2022 at 8:46 AM Tom Johnson <<a href="mailto:jtjohnson555@gmail.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">jtjohnson555@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto"><a href="https://www.technologyreview.com/2022/12/12/1064751/the-viral-ai-avatar-app-lensa-undressed-me-without-my-consent/?utm_source=engagement_email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=wklysun&utm_term=gift-promo1-121822&utm_content=12.18.22.non-subs_eng&mc_cid=89856a4cda&mc_eid=4866eb5609" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.technologyreview.com/2022/12/12/1064751/the-viral-ai-avatar-app-lensa-undressed-me-without-my-consent/?utm_source=engagement_email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=wklysun&utm_term=gift-promo1-121822&utm_content=12.18.22.non-subs_eng&mc_cid=89856a4cda&mc_eid=4866eb5609</a><br><br><div>=======================<br>Tom Johnson<br>Inst. for Analytic Journalism<br>Santa Fe, New Mexico<br>505-577-6482<br>=======================</div></div>
