I admire that glass’s self confidence
The engineer: The glass is two times bigger than it needs to be.
The glass is half foal.
Hard to belle-ieve
Pessimist has only one arm
Why the fuck is the glass talking
Freedom of speech I assume.
January second for the Yanks.
What, Medium/Small/Large order seems off to you??

You’re assuming that I’m not a Yank? Let me tell you, I can Yank with the best of them, and I do!
I usually do mine solitarily.
Sounds like you’re walking a metaphorical minefield
Occasionally, he does mine with others.
Usually.

Look bud, you can’t call it “February second” in conversation, write it down as “Second February” in writing, and then get mad at us Yanks about it. Pick a lane.
No, you misunderstand. I’m in America. But ISO 8601 standard 4 Life!
Oh, so THAT’S why they brought Excel into this! I didn’t make the connection and just thought Excel would even consider a glass of water a date.
A human artist might have said “1/2 full” instead of “half full” but LLMs don’t understand jokes so there’s no hope they’ll be able to make the joke easier
Oh my god.
Jesus christ.
I was thinking, “nah, that seems nitpicky, I’m sure a real person could write either.” But that is the entire setup for the punchline. I’m gonna rip my hair out.
More like 44567
Best I can do is 7.45678e17
Is that like an error code for excel?
Nah just stupid number formatting, my UPCs regularly turn into scientific notation or my UOM automatically convert to a string =“12” which ruins math operations so first I have to make a helper column =NUMBERVALUE([@UOM]).
Or being unable to convert datetime to a simple date for date calculations without loading the table into power query and transforming it there. You can change the format into short date but if the actual value is datetime it will still throw an error but now the type issue is hidden, so have fun reading docs and troubleshooting until you realize your mistake :)
You can make a date from a datetime in cell A1 with
=Date(year(A1), month(A1), day(A1))
Scientists rename human genes to stop Microsoft Excel from misreading them as dates
Sometimes it’s easier to rewrite genetics than update Excel

Best thing is, they introduced some settings to turn that auto-conversion off and they don’t work 🤣 can’t make that stuff up.
I mean, I know of a Microsoft product that allows for a batch import of data provided in an Excel file. You need to use their template file. Which, when used, automatically formats all dates the American way, ignoring your locale settings. Depending on which date is first encountered on import (e.g. which date you entered in the first line) then designates whether the whole file is imported with dates read as MM/DD/YYYY or DD/MM/YYYY.
You start your list on January 1st? It will import everything as MM/DD/YYYY then. You start you list on e.g. January 22nd? DD/MM/YYYY it is then. Good luck getting that import running without errors…
MM/DD/YYYY
DD/MM/YYYY
Both of these are the wrong way to format dates.
Nothing works in Excel. Excel will do what it wants.
But that doesn’t stop the MS support and a thousand stupid people from claiming “oh, you just have to format it as text, are you dumb or what”…
Or Jan-2
Ew
it’s funny how you can tell at a glance exactly what model generated this image, just based off the background color
Also why is the glass talking wtf?
Well which one is this one? (This was a crosspost so I don’t know lmao)
The new one by openai, “gpt-4o image generation”
you
No I can’t. Have you considered you might be beyond normal smart about this stuff?
well it’s supposed to be the “passive” you (or “indeterminate” you)
but I think anyone can learn to notice the pattern of comics with this particular odd color style (assuming you would want to learn it for some reason, and if we ignore color blindness or other similar problems etc)
The old way of saying that is close to obsolete. One now must take it from context whether the “you” means you or one.
just based off the background color
… white?
technically I guess it’s between Cosmic latte and Desert sand
…I had to look those up but it’s definitely not a plain white
There’s also some nasty artifacting around the lines, nat look like but not exactly JPEG.
I can sense AI now.
Was this made by ai? It looks soulless, and the coffee cup is talking.
the coffee cup is talking
Yours don’t?
No, I misspoke. My water cups talk.
Who drinks coffee out of a transparent pint glass?
Me if I don’t think properly.
Someone explain to me why i have a sense for ai? This is like the fourth time this week i see an ai image and i spotted it even tho at first i hadnt seen the mistakes the ai made. Something just feels off in ai pictures and i cant really pin down what it is. But when i see one i can just spot it for some reason.

There’s also some artifacting around the lines that are reminiscent of JPEG, but not kind of that, and it seems like the text is superimposed onto it in a second or third pass by an external tool to make it look more consistent.
How do you determine that something is AI?
The uncanny valley. It looks overall right, but some details don’t feel quite right even if you dln’t know which ones.
So, vibes basically.
Yeah, until you find what’s actually wrong, like the arms that fuse with the table, the talking glass, the almost identical faces, the glass being giantic, the backgroud colour, the specific artstyle (just like when AI made images that looked too shiny and shit, and it was obvious it was AI)…
Uncanny valley. The AI gets things right overall, but not enough that you don’t realize somerhing is wrong.
For me it’s the arms being fused with the table,pessimist only having one arm, the faces that feel too generic/soulless (like, they barely change between pesimist and excel), the “optimist” being the glass and not another character…
The glass is also weirdly large considering it looks like it should be at roughly the same distance as the people.
The glass is also speaking, as opposed to a third person.
I noticed that the new image model doesn’t like pure white backgrounds.
It’s become such a reliable tell that I’m genuinely curious why AI seems to think that cartoon images MUST look like they’re drawn on old paper.
EDIT: The AI answer I got when asking Google was about what I’d expect, but this last bit I hadn’t considered:
Sepia tones can help unify the color palette of an image, making it more visually cohesive and pleasing. This could be a factor in the AI’s decision to use sepia, as it can contribute to a sense of order and harmony in the generated image.
So it uses it to try and make it more visually appealing to a wide audience, leading to it looking even more bland and uninspired.
Microsoft apps should be locked in a cell.
Ex-cell?
Ban slop!
Are you talking about AI or excel?
