Cool study and application for crow-treat exchanges. But the image is AI. That is some gibberish Swedish text.

[-] Wispy2891@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

Yes, the font is weird, and it wouldn't make sense to have an LCD screen for that, also with a full steel construction

Actual machine is way less fancy:

something that seems made by an high schooler in a couple days as a science project

Source: the daily mail, so I won't link that shit

Thank you. I was perplexed as to why a touch screen was present and how the crows were meant to push a cigarette butt into a card slot. .

Thank you for not linking that shit.

What are you talking about? Looks fine to me:

TÄCK FÖR HËLPEN!

[-] tomiant@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

Eisää peitää!

[-] Pelicanen@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 week ago

What is a hëlp and how do we cover it?

[-] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

Bird return, food for rubbish, thanks for the help?

[-] Lifter@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 week ago

The help is spelled hjälpen in swedish.

[-] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

Oh, of course. You're right. It might be a human who translated it poorly though, rather than an AI

[-] MalReynolds@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

You're right (I think, damn timeline) but it's the sort of AI Slop I can get behind, a call to action. It's the sort of thing some politician somewhere will look at and go 'there's votes in that' (and there is) and it ends up happening. Art has been used similarly for eons, I'm willing to give this a pass...

There are things I don't understand about the machine that also make me think AI, but Google Translate seems to understand so maybe it isn't?

Google Translate "BIRD RETURN: FOOD FOR GARBAGE COVER FOR HELP!"

Edit: Actually I think AI is better than I thought it would be.

Skråp isn't a word. It should be Skräp

I assume the last sentence should be dotted because funny..

However the prototype didn't look like that and Corvid Cleaning is in bankruptcy

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
