You could operate the ejection mechanism by hand both on optical and floppy disk drives with an uncurled paperclip (or a SIM card ejection tool were they to exist at that point in time). But I wouldn't ascribe the introduction of the m

Around 5000 RPM I get transported to the back seat of a two-stroke Trabant struggling to reach 70 km/h on a mild incline.

A non-procedural approach might be easier: collect loops of baseline murmurs / elevated cheering / peak ecstatic crowd and vary the volume of each based on what is happening on screen. If you have variants of each "energy lev

HERB from 10 years ago was said to be able to unload dishwashers, but I only find videos of it manipulating a bottle of drink: - http://web.archive.org/web/20130801064313/personalrobotics.r... - https:/&#x2F

Adding two numbers, each having 100 digits? Reciting the fractional part of Π on and on? I have only seen that done by talented people appearing in TV shows. Seems AI.

Maybe it is easier to define what isn't AI? Toshiba's handwritten postal code recognizers from the 1970s? Fuzzy logic in washing machines that adjusts the pre-programmed cycle based on laundry weight and dirtyness?

You have discovered a secret area of my personalized "pet peeves" level: just a few days ago I saw an article (maybe video) about how "AI" tracks you in a restaurant. Screenshot was from an OpenCV-based app with a boundi

I read an article on evolutionary algorithm-based designs a long time ago -- they are effectively indecipherable by humans and rely on the imperfections of the very FPGA that they are synthesized on, but work great otherwise. - https:&#x2F

Apparently this was hidden behind the Alt+F12 key combo? I might have to fire up a copy as I don't remember ever seeing this bit. Edit : it doesn't seem to be enabled in 2.14. Oh well, got to hear "Blue Flame" again! Th

What would be the reason for that, other than general interest of how things were done? Any effects or playback differences that still need to be ironed out?

The article (and presumably the study behind the article) expands on this a bit, it just wouldn't make a click-friendly title. According to the text, Internet addiction makes young people prone to fall for other kinds of addiction and
