I am so unbelievably fucking sick of AI tools. Every time I go to the doctor now, they start up by asking, "Is it all right if I use this AI voice translation software to record my notes?" while already setting it up, and then they look nonplussed when I tell them no. Like man I appreciate it takes you a modicum of extra time and concentration to type up things in my chart yourself, but that is in fact a loadbearing part of what I'm paying you to do! I want to know that the notes you take are accurate, or at least accurate to your assessment in the moment! "Oh but we read through the AI summary to check that it's accurate" I don't care! I don't fucking care!! Even if you did it right after my appointment, that's no guarantee you'll remember every beat of what was discussed, because now you're trying to remember thirty minutes' worth of conversation after the fact instead of just typing a few sentences at five minute intervals! And that's the best case scenario - how many patients do you see a day? What fucking good is it if you're reviewing all these summaries in bulk after a ten hour shift, or a day later, or two? How are you gonna catch any errors or hallucinations when you barely remember our appointment? Whereas when you type it yourself, your brain builds connections between what's being heard and what's being written. You remember more. I want you to remember more! I do not want AI in my fucking medical care! Fuck!

Hey anyone notice how google translate is being pretty liberal with their translations as of late? Takin some real liberties to infer tone.

[melongifts]

ask and ye shall receive: When I write in Japanese I usually also throw it in google translate to double check that I'm not using the wrong kanji by mistake, and two years ago it gave me very dry and literal translations.

I was doing it today and noticed it had a pretty strong voice added to the output

For reference, to give a dry translation I would put: Lately I'm into in Hanafuda. Nobody seems to know anything about it here, so they probably wouldn't understand my brilliant jokes. I guess you guys will never be able to understand "Mister November and the Scary Cave".

I have a fluent friend who is able to check my work for me and give me tips on hitting the correct tone (I was going for a comically casual feeling), so I'm confident that I'm expressing the feeling I'm intending. While Google is also hitting the same emotion, I really don't like knowing that it's assigning tone in the first place.

To check if it was editorializing based on informal grammatical choices, I formal'd up the writing to be more polite and remove any non-standard vocabulary.

I'm just like... what is anyone who is translating what I'm thinking into their own language going to think when a translation app decides that it knows my intended tone? When online communication is already so complicated and nuanced? I'm a non-native so I'm spending ages agonizing over 117 characters, but when I'm chatting in English I'm not being so deliberate. How likely is it that tools that 'naturalize' are going to make choices that don't reflect reality and lead to insulting misunderstandings? I spoke with an English learner just yesterday who thought they were being bullied (they were not, the commenter in question was just excitedly infodumping about sociology) because something was lost in translation, and I wonder if it's because of tools making choices like this. I'm just a luddite I don't trust stuff like this. stinks of ai asking me if it can rerwrite my email in a more quirky style.

Spin the wheel. Tomorrow, you wake up in this country with, however implausible, a passport for both it and your home country. How do you feel?

This is awful; I’m booking a trip home immediately.

I really don’t like this; I’ll stick it out briefly, but I’m heading home soon.

This isn’t great; I’d rather be back home, but I’ll manage until I can get back.

Being here isn’t better or worse than being in my home country.

This is pretty nice; I’ll stay a little while, but go home eventually.

I love it here; I’ll be staying a long while before I go home.

This is amazing; it’ll be a long time before I go home, and I may stay here.

Btw keep reblogging my post with fun tags and keep using your tagging system as it was intended, idc what that fuckass update say, we gonna make tumblr roll that shit back

[spicyvampire]

[spicyvampire]

But let's be clear, this is clearly some corporate speak for "we gonna force that bullshit on you someway somehow anyways" we will have to be more vigilant about tumblr constantly fucking with the reblog feature, them adding a goddamn menu button for reblogs on desktop was only the start, it genuinely feels like these people don't use tumblr or their main social media is twitter because they are constantly trying to shit all over the best tumblr features to make it more like fucking twitter, the battle might have been won but the war continues

[spicyvampire]

When I told you the battle has been won but the war continues this is what I meant, tumblr has rolled out once again this very exact same updated but this time it only affects the least protected users of this website aka the gifmakers, edits makers, artists and creators of all sorts, because not only is every reblog of a gifset it's own post, but now every reblog of a gifset can get flagged without OP even being aware of it

They get flagged on your blog AND in your queue, and sometimes you can't even tell what the fuck was even in the post so you can give a justification for asking an appeal

And if you aren't scrolling your own blog or queue constantly like a maniac, you won't even know the reblog is flagged cuz they get put in your Review Flagged Posts section of your app and website, somewhere NOBODY even checks, and has no number next to it to tell you how many posts are in there

I got reblogs flagged all the way to 2017 in there, and the only way to know is to SCROLL DOWN

And the cherry on that bullshit Sunday is that some of these reblogs can be flagged without you even being able to appeal them like I have a bunch of them which are simply impossible to appeal, even if yet again the post is completely innocent

Tumblr seemingly continues to find new and original ways to make this place absolutely worst for creators by taking any & all agency you got on your creation away, and they fucking hiding it behind their April fools green cat
