I said in the offseason y'all have no idea how good this guy is and you gave me some (valid) pushback. Just messing with you. Hope you had a nice Christmas my man.
@Mitch Cumsteen don't you know a couple people within the org? Spurs need to take care of this. I just bought a $20 clearance shirt at Academy for Christ's sake. @TexasEd either way we'll figure this out. This is PR porn.
Yes - I think it is. Hence my point about paying a therapist to not arrive at that conclusion. I can instantly and intelligently give myself commentary on my own life. Give it a shot, man. I think it will surprise you. Appreciate the discussion regardless.
He's a piece of shit just like the rest of them. Fucking basketball terrorists. Hope they never win another title - and they needed Hali blowing out his achilles to make that first one happen.
Wemby has been playing angry all season. He's a total dog. "rat poision" my ass. We are here and we are now. Ask Chet Holmgren's bitchass. That said - like I said earlier - this team isn't winning a title - yet. You have to get fucked up in the playoffs a couple times first. Gangster.
That seems reductionist. A lot of people may never take that journey in the first place. My knowledge is almost as comprehensive as it comes, so for me, maybe AI points out something in the weeds that I had never come across. I mean just from that one prompt there are multiple albums that I may want to check out. I've been playing around with it a bit more and gave it a fairly recent song that I love and it returned a couple of albums I liked a lot from when I was in high school. That is a commentary on myself that I otherwise wouldn't have obtained. "Why do I like this song so much? What else is like it?" "You like it because it reminds you of when you were 17" I could piss money at a therapist for a year before they told me anything like that. Granted platforms like Spotify already kind of do this with suggestions and autoplay but having it be more targeted appears to be much more rewarding. Mess around with it, man. I think you'd be surprised. Chat GPT wanted money from me but Perplexity appears to be freeish? so far. https://www.perplexity.ai/search/i-really-like-the-song-asking-SdWMcx6HQCCuCguHDPM4Zw
Of those listed, I love The National although that isn't one of my favorite albums of theirs. Channel Orange is one of the greatest albums of all time and I adore "Carrie and Lowell". Everyone knows about OK Computer already.
I know a lot of people are in a hurry to demean and bemoan any and every use of AI but the fact is that it is here to stay and we are entering a transhuman era. Myself, I have bristled at the notion in general and a lot of its applications, but I may as well lean into it a bit more. I'm obviously not a famous musician but I sing and songwrite and listen to a lot and a line came into my head. Generally I'll just fantasize or write something like that down or maybe try and write a song. I had a thought, though, what if I generate a prompt out of this and see what "AI" can do with it? So I did that. And... the result was pretty fucking cool and featured a couple albums and artists that I already love. Crazy time to be alive.
I just don't think Tech played anyone all season. Miami and SMU were the best ACC teams this year metrics-wise and the ACC being dogshit is a huge talking point from everyone. I do think TT is good I just worry about them under the lights against a real opponent.
