  • Smuggler caught with dozens of venomous vipers "concealed in checked-in baggage" on plane, customs officials say

  • Thank you, I scrolled all the way to the end of the comments and was worried this wouldn’t be here.

  • Teachers Are Not OK - AI, ChatGPT, and LLMs "have absolutely blown up what I try to accomplish with my teaching."

  • Sounds like a great application for AI! Oh, wait…

  • She Got an Abortion. So A Texas Cop Used 83,000 Cameras to Track Her Down.

  • Doesn’t France have extensive camera coverage of public areas? Though for sure the French would riot were they misused in this fashion.

  • No one suspects a thing

  • Defiance: CDC directly contradicts direct demand from RFK Jr.

  • Assuming what he suggests doesn’t legally (or financially) limit what options are actually available to you.

  • Are programmers really like this ?

  • I’m pretty sure you could make this comic apply to git too.

  • Cyberplaque rule, choomba!

  • “It looks like you’re not using an authorized Oral-B toothbrush head, for your safety your toothbrush has self destructed.”

  • Self-Driving Tesla Fails School Bus Test, Hitting Child-Size Dummies… Meanwhile, Robo-Taxis Hit the Road in 2 Weeks.

  • What are the odds that fsd recognizes musks face and prioritizes his survival over yours? Swerve right into that nearby tree!

    Reminds me of xitter changing its algorithm to boost musk’s tweets when he took over.

  • Permanently Deleted

  • Man, that pendulum swing from “the uncarrier” to full blown horrible large corporation. That merger with Sprint sure has made things better for customers, right?

  • Accurate

  • Concierge hospitals give monocles too.

  • Up to 265,000 gallons of urine splashback could be prevented with snazzy new urinal designs

  • Challenge accepted.

  • Audible unveils plans to use AI voices to narrate audiobooks

  • Ah, I see what you’re saying, I misunderstood and thought you were taking about picking a different book. Indeed, for the worst case scenario a mediocre AI voice could be an improvement!

  • The small scale of Lemmy's active user base is never more evident than in the absence of active members in all the sports related communities.

  • 2025-05-17

  • Really shoulda had the new guy standing to the left in the bottom frames to sell the premise.

  • Weekly Discussion: 12 May 2025

  • I do 529 contributions for my niece and nephew. I pestered my brother until he finally opened accounts for them rather than doing it myself. Primarily because I wanted him to feel ownership of the process and (hopefully) get in on contributing as well.

  • Audible unveils plans to use AI voices to narrate audiobooks

  • You seem to be implying that’s ridiculous, but it is indeed exactly like that, though it’s not like I’m expecting every performance to be a masterpiece.

    It’s also pretty subjective, for example folks either seem to love or hate R. C. Bray. My mother can’t stand the guy’s style, I think he’s okay.

  • Audible unveils plans to use AI voices to narrate audiobooks

  • For now at least I bet this’ll be pretty mediocre. I’m a big audiobook fan and voice actors have a massive impact on the quality of the finished product. A great voice actor can make a mediocre book fun and engaging, a bad one can make a great book unlistenable. The best do great voice differentiation. As an example I’ve really enjoyed Andrea Parsneau’s work in The Wandering Inn series.

  • New RSV vaccine, treatment linked to dramatic fall in baby hospitalizations

  • As someone who had a two month old in the PICU for a few days with RSV, this is great to hear. I wish it’d come a few years sooner for us. The little guy is fine now but it was terrifying at the time.

  • No rules no masters

  • I recall a theory as to why they are evil.
