Thwarting AI � stuff that is okay for us, but not for �them�
by Michael Uplawski from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6CCA2)
I hope this introductory post will not be too long... but do not see, how I could possibly succeed to keep it short.
I jump right in. i In France i a lot of energy, money and persuasion-efforts are invested into digitizing *ALL*, like in Everything (... you do, you see, you believe, whatever). As one means to impose stuff is to eliminate all alternatives, your using dumb buggy interfaces begins to feel natural.
A while ago, I have undertaken an effort to publish awkward handwritten Web-pages 1) 2). Although I know that pattern-recognition makes quick advances, I also know that there is no end to this development in sight. I wonder, then, if there are things we currently do or did until recently, which should be kept as a refugium for human behavior and that we could practice and perfect to quite simply keep ourselves alive and aware of it.
I venture that the recognition of an empty space inside a written character, like in P, Q, O is difficult for an AI, when handwritten text is concerned and the writer kept some of her/his individuality.
And I *guess* (only, unfortunately), that there are more domains, which are condemned to oblivion, today, which could help us stay alive in the same way as using a fountain pen.
If this does not make sense, forget it. I promise to stay on my side of the fashion frontier.
