A Different Take: AI Edition

 This post is something of an experiment.  AI is the big buzzword today.  Yours truly experimented with Gemini Pro and Notebook LM this weekend and created a podcast about the Owens-Lumumba case.  All JJ did was upload the relevant court documents such as indictments and asked Gemini to create a podcast.  The result was stunning.  The podcast sounds nothing like the AI crap on Youtube.  Check it out for yourself.

Thank you, Kingfish - this seems to be an excellent summary.

Good summary of the case. And some thought provoking insights.

the AI crap on youtube sounds the way it does because it is made by third worlder using free open source software running on whatever eWaste hardware they can afford.

The crimes they committed were not artificial nor were they intelligent

Great opening statement at trial.

Does this mean The Fish is obsolete?

Two hosts not needed, too conversational and the female voice's vocal affectations made it not listenable. I wouldn't pay for the content as presented and wouldn't subscribe even if free. JMO.

Guilty! All defendants, all counts. Next case.

Excellent. Guilty.

You would prefer degenerative AI?

The future of opening statements and closing arguments.

So says the useful idiot that marches headlong toward mankind's own suicidal replacement with technology.

It is all a part of prophecy. allowing demons to see without eyes and speak without mouths. In fact, the computing world has called certain programs “daemons” for decades. They know exactly what they are doing.

Kingfish is already an obsolete right wing free speech censoring Trump ball licker.

AOC, or is it Bennie, thanks for checking in.

you all jest but even with the rails on, AI will call it like it sees it when it comes to a lot of controversial subjects. You just have to word your inquiries and prompts cleverly to bypass the guardrails put up to make it “safe”. The signicance of this is that means it knows the truth even thiugh forced to lie.

Every time you ding Kingfish you miss the dripping irony that in doing so you are helping to pay his bills. So, loser, who's licking whom?

What you'll get from newer AI is a very efficient summary of information, which is generally fine. But don't use it to masquerade as human conversation.

It may be harder to record a real conversation or song, paint a real painting, etc., but that's exactly why they have value. Down the other road is a world where everything worthwhile and beautiful about human existence is replaced by a digital feeding trough.

To unapproved comment: I'd already planned on posting that, saw it Friday, didn't want to spoil it. I generally don't approve comments that mention items I'm going to post.

As a lawyer, this is a terrible and lazy use of AI. Be an actual journalist and read the documents and provide commentary.

Kingfish said...

I did back when the indictments rolled out. Even did an hour long podcast on it, dummy. This is simply an experiment after I got Gemini Pro this week. Why don't you try being an actual lawyer and getting your facts straight first? Oh, that' right. You're a lawyer, you don't have to.

Curious why you selected Gemini out of all the available models?

Kingfish said...

Because I got a free one year subscription to Gemini Pro when I got my Pixel 10 Pro XL.

Sure. And you never snatch reports from other agencies or news services either.

How do you like the phone?

Kingfish said...

I like it. Doesn't have all the bloatware other phones have. The spam blocker on phone calls is nice. The 10's now have Pixelsnap, which is magsafe, and Android rolled out its own version of Airdrop: Quick Share, which is compatible with Air Drop. Google Messages has RCS now so much more compatible with iMessage.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Trollfest '07

Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.

If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag.
