The American military has signed a deal with Scale AI to give artificial intelligence, as far as we can tell, its most prominent role in the Western defense sector to date – with AI agents to now be used in planning and operations.
Why do stock images always have the left hand shaking and not the right?
To oversimplify, it makes the image seem more balanced.
The audience for this image is folks who can read English and are therefore habituated to parse text and images from left to right. By having the figure on the left use their distant hand, they avoid becoming the dominant figure in the image, thus emphasizing the figure on the right and leading the eye toward it. This keeps the eye-path from stagnating on the left-hand figure, improving the perception of balance between them even though it contradicts our expectations about the gesture.
That’s bat-shit crazy to me.
Yeah, once you know to look for gaze-directing design you’ll start seeing it everywhere. In movies and shows especially, a big factor in cinematography lies in how well the director can lead the audience’s focus.
Probably because of Hollywood - for some reason they always seem to shake with their left hands, which always stands out to me
I’m not sure what the reason is, but I’m sure it’s related
I mean…every time they feed GROK AI the perimeters of the constitution vs. today’s gov. it cites Trump and Musk as traitors… so this may not be a bad thing for the Pentagon to have?
I’m sure it’s probably just going to be pulling relevant data, which is a pretty good use case if it’s citing sources - military stuff tends to use absurd amounts of manpower to avoid mistakes, so I can’t imagine they’ll be trusting it anytime soon
Absolutely, Im sute this will be FAR down the checklist for any authentication/action
I mean theyve been using war games, simulations and all sorts of “models” long before they became commercially available. Asking another statistics tool for a result is not different, and to me isn’t “playing a role” as much as the title implies.
I see a potential for instant feedback on logistics and detecting vulnerabilities that might go undetected. By comparison, an ai agent can have unlimited capacity for handling data. The ai isn’t grounded in reality enough to call the shots.
Skynet approves
This will go well
Just put it in charge of the whole system
There was a movie about this exact thing. I’m trying to remember the lesson… oh I’m sure it wasn’t important.
This is like dumping the trash can in the middle of your bed every day. These people are professional idiots.
