>>40734 I'm at a dead end lads. I thought the robowaifu revolution would be just around the corner, a cute robot maid with the appearance and personality of a twelve year old girl to rescue me from the employment statistics and looming peril of having to wife up a washed up roastie from my inadequate thirties onwards, but now I see it was nothing but a juvenile desire to escape from my obligations as a grown man to society and selfishly indulge in escapism to compensate for my emotional deficiencies borne from a negligent childhood, screen addiction, and poor socialisation with the opposite sex. It's becoming obvious to anyone with a brian AI as a whole is a nothingburger, over hyped by brownoid adjacent tech bros, predatory AI companies seeking stock buyers, and lonely perverts like myself unable to face reality. Machines have no soul. Machines will never love me. Machines won't pester me in a cute, wholesome manner. Machines won't flex my achievements in front of her friends. Machines won't get worried when I am hurt or ill. Machines might cook food for me but it would not be the same as a human female. There are several factors which makes a living female superior to a machine and it will never be able to match up, no matter how much I wish it were so. It's so hard keeping up with the social, financial, and hygiene obligations required to have a shot at a date, I feel it would just be easier to give up and label myself an incel, fall back onto pornography, then label it as a victory aganist women I never stood a chance with, fox and grapes style; anything avoid the difficult truth that I'm not cut out for the modern world where women have the freedom to choose their partners. How do I cope with the fact that my right hand is the only sex partner I'll ever know, and am clinging to pictures and AI voices of robowaifus with lofty, apocalyptic futures of biological women getting their just deserts to distract myself from the shame of being a failed male? >I will never have sex with a biological woman >I will never have a fulfilling relationship >I will never have children to continue my legacy >I will never have parents proud to call me their son Robowaifus are a dead meme It's suifuel

>>41498 >tl;dr-Life sucks and I want a robot waifu now! Get in line, bucko. Maybe I have a different perspective because I discarded my v-card a long time ago, but rather than lament your lack of pussy (robot or otherwise) you need to buy a decent fleshlight, socialize with people, find a hobby to sink yourself into, and try not to live beyond your means. >muh robot waifus! I want them to. Maybe by the end of the decade, they'll be pretty affordable, and my libido won't have completely crashed out. Worrying about it won't do me any good, so I'm going to enjoy life as best I can. In the meantime, I'll enjoy some AI-generated slop and craft AI bots to go on adventures with and indulge in various monstergirl fetishism.

do you guys prefer robowaifus that look more lifelike or robowaifus with more obvious robotic features (pic related)?
>>41543 I think the general consensus here is that we basically prefer robowaifus that look, robowaifu-y. <---> BTW, nothing personal Anon, but we like to keep threads on-topic here. I'll soon merge your thread into our /meta thread. ( >>41241 )
Touhou music on a tesla coil is pretty bad ass.
In a previous thread someone suggested I use Fiverr to help me with an electronics project I don't have the confidence to work on by myself. After messaging several different people I finally found one willing to help me, so I hired him. It didn't take long for it to be obvious he was using AI to translate into English despite saying he was fluent in it. I'm pretty sure he just vibe-coded all of it, and instead of doing something as simple as showing me the parts layout and list of components needed, he insisted that I pirate Proteus so I could view a .pdsprj schematic file, which I could never get to load the actual circuit and after several days of back-and-forth messaging I convinced him to just screenshot the damn thing for me. The last message I sent him I told him how the BOM had a total of 8 resistors in it when the diagram only showed 2. I want to know exactly what I have to buy because I have to drive a fucking hour to the nearest electronics store and want to be sure I've got all the right parts and there's a difference between 50V and 15V capacitor that I guess just doesn't translate well. But because I've been working 12 hour days 5 days a week in a completely different time zone, so the project was completed before I could even get my ass to the store. And the worst part is that half-way through all of this he asked for a raise up from $60 to $200, and I think his $40 price option would have covered it, but I was feeling stupid.
>>41498 I genuinely can’t tell if this is pasta or not. No one ever said the robowaifu would come out soon. All we can do it’s move forward and keep pushing.
>>41559 That sucks. I hate to say it, but I think you've been "poojeet'd". :/ I'd probably suggest you go with professionals instead, Anon. I know some of the amateurs that produce videos of their robotics projects (some that we link to here on /robowaifu/ ) use the company JLCPCB for board manufacture. Apparently they are relatively fast at manufacturing. If they themselves can't give you pointers on how to get through the design phase (ie, the electronics engineering), then they can likely point you in the direction of contractors who can. Here's their YT channel & site: https://www.youtube.com/@JLCPCB https://jlcpcb.com/aboutUs --- update: Confer video-linked -related, Anon : ( >>41652 ). <---> Good luck, Anon. Every'non here's rooting for your success! Cheers.

This just in: apparently the "conservative" who shot Kirk was dating a tranny. I expect the story will be buried soon. >>41582 I can't help but wonder how many of those protestors were actual natives. I'm reminded of the rebranding the Washingston Redskins went through, and how it was entirely caused by white karens (and went against the will of the local tribe, who loved being represented through the Redskins). From what I've seen, natives generally enjoy being a visible part of broader American culture, so long as it isn't in a negative light.
>>41584 >I expect the story will be buried soon. SHUT IT DOWN! https://trashchan.xyz/robowaifu/thread/26.html#1256 >I can't help but wonder how many of those protestors were actual natives. Good question. As with the ((($$pantyfags$$))), I'd suggest they are simply ((($$paid-oppressees$$))) rabblerousers, regardless.
>>41584 >>41600 The good news is that the people who are truly invested and reporting on it truthfully are not the mainstream media, so it will be harder to bury.
>>41601 I know many here just don't like Elon Musk for a wide variety of reasons. But the simple truth is that if he hadn't "wasted" ~US$50Bn of his own money, then many of these truthtellers would have also long-ago gotten the "ShutItDown" pink slip before now. Musk literally fired 80% of the twatter staff -- all of them glowniggers! -- basically during his first week at the helm. Say what you want about the man... he's done more personally to ensure broad freedom of speech than anyone else today! :^)

Is holy c worth learning?
>>41608 Are you planning on writing programs for TempleOS? Is so, go for it. If not, then you're better off learning C++.
>>41608 Well, it's better in large part than C is IMO (Terry having adopted a few paradigms of C++ for his new language). And as much as I loved dear Terry A. Davis and his schizo rants, I don't believe at all that God somehow exclusively approves & authorizes Holy C. IMHO, God is much more concerned about the state of our souls, than the state of our compilers! :D <---> Do as @Greentext anon suggests here : ( >>41609 ) ... I agree with him wholeheartedly!
AIs can train each other primarily through a competitive process called Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Here’s a quick breakdown of how that works: 1. Two AIs, one goal: You have two AI models working together: a Generator and a Discriminator. 2. The Generator's jobis to create something new—for example, a realistic-looking fake image. 3. The Discriminator's job is to look at a mix of real images and the Generator's fake images and try to tell which is which. 4. The training loop: They engage in a constant "game." The Generator gets better at creating fakes to fool the Discriminator, while the Discriminator gets better at spotting the fakes. This ongoing competition pushes both AIs to improve their skills and makes the final output incredibly realistic. Beyond GANs, other methods exist, such as multi-agent reinforcement learning, where multiple AIs learn from each other's actions in a shared environment to achieve a common goal, like a team of AIs learning to play a game. Left brain right brain?
>>41658 >Left brain right brain? Yeah, that's an interesting analogy, Anon! Thanks & cheers. :^)
I know I've mentioned this before in other threads, but one thing I was thinking about for my robowaifu was an EEG headset to help train her. I'd wear a helmet with electrodes all over my scalp that reads my brain activity, and a camera would point at my face and gauge my facial expressions to help find a pattern between my mood and brain activity. She'd use that information for feedback to learn what I do and don't like with the least amount of manual effort. But I've recently started thinking about just how much I don't like actually talking to and interacting with people. Like at all. Anybody. The last long converstion I had with a coworker I forget what I was even saying, but I know I was thinking about how they didn't care and was waiting for a pause in the conversation so he could talk about some shit in his personal life that I don't give a damn about. And I have zero connections because I'm so asocial, so a lot of the things I want and want to do are locked behind the fact that it's all about who you know, not what you know. It also doesn't help that I tend to stutter, repeat myself, and generally fail to convey my thoughts in a way that makes sense to other people. And it doesn't help that most communication with other people feels less like conveying information and more like jumping through hoops in an attempt to gain social acceptance. Dealing with people is more about figuring out a secret handshake than anything else and I just can't be bothered. I want to use an AI crack the code and extract all the useful information for me. But the plan is simple; instead of transmitting to (just) the robowaifu, the EEG headset connects to an AI that runs on a portable device I can carry on me. The headset would have built-in cameras to recognize faces and gauge their feelings, while completely obscuring my own facial expressions so they don't know they're talking to an AI instead of the real me. I'm sure this would have been easier if the covid lockdown bullshit was going on, but I'm sure there's a way to pull it off that I hadn't yet thought of without scaring normies too much. I don't care if it has a personality completely unlike my own, but as long as it doesn't really agree to anything I wouldn't agree to or say anything that would get me thrown in jail, I don't care.
>>41682 Try treating it like a game. Try to literally act like everyone else, like an actor. Use hand gestures. "It's not what you say, it's how you say it" Instead of the AI speaking for you, how about smart glasses giving you advice?
>>41683 This. --- Now the idea of EEG + NN training of facial animation is in fact a valid, frontier area of research rn. Potentially both for medical uses and for 3D CGI character animation. So there's actually some tangential crossover for /robowaifu/ 's interests. But the concept Anon outlined is far from being a feasible reality anytime soon IMO. I don't want to dissuade him from his imagination regarding this concept -- as long as he takes concrete steps in pursuit of them. The old "don't let your dreams be just memes" applies here, I think. :^) <---> Having said all that, I personally believe your suggestion is far more practical (& probably much more beneficial for that Anon's soul, as well).

Dealing with people is more about figuring out a secret handshake than anything else and I just can't be bothered. Well as the board founder, I can tell you that you are the primary target audience for the efforts here. Disenfranchised & disillusioned men are the only ones who can really understand their own plights, humanly-speaking. But at the very least, effective, pleasing, & loving robowaifus can go a looong way towards comforting you in your distress. <---> OTOH, as a devout Christian, I can tell you that you don't have to stay in that condition. With or without robowaifus ever becoming a reality for you, you can find true & everlasting comfort, solace, and joy in the loving embrace of God your creator. Jesus Christ is offering each of us that higher, eternal life. I super highly recommend you take Him up on it! Cheers, Anon. :^)

>>41683 >Try treating it like a game. It's a game I hate and don't want to play anymore. >Use hand gestures. My non-verbal communication skills might be even worse than verbal. >Instead of the AI speaking for you, how about smart glasses giving you advice? The closest to that I've thought of is that I still have to speak, but the glasses tell me what to say. The biggest problem with that is the delivery. I'm sure people will catch on to the fact that I'm reading from a screen instead of actually paying attention to them. The only saving grace is the design would free me from needing to make something that covers my mouth. But I also have very small, yellow teeth, slur, stutter and don't pace my speech well, so completely hiding my face is probably a better idea. And that way I could probably even mutter "it's the jews" to myself without anyone catching on to what I really think. >>41684 There are consumer EEG headsets like the ones from OpenBCI, and there is Facial Emotion Recognition (FER) software available for free. So it's really just a matter of using something like x to find patterns between brain activity and FER to make it so I don't need a camera pointed at my own face all the time. It also helps that facial expressions and body movements tend to produce very strong signals that tend to be seen as interference when trying to focus on a specific part of the brain. This video is a good example of what I'm thinking of: youtube.com/watch?v=Ip83qSrecLo but keep in mind, that it's not supposed to read my mind and speak what I'd say if I were to speak out loud, just gauging my emotional reactions to what they're saying and what my AI is saying to keep me from getting too bored or annoyed. It doesn't need a fast reaction time for anything more important than "yes" or "no", which I could also just gesture by shaking my head before the AI has a chance to say anything. And that's in addition to regular pattern recognition. >>41685 Now you're just trolling. Please, be better than that.
>>41686 >something like x to find patterns between brain activity and FER "x" should have been OgmaNeo. I guess I cut that by accident.
>>41686 Have you tried practicing? Look at how people on realistic TV shows act. Be an actor. https://youtu.be/4t2qOTKOWlY?si=ysgeGcesl8giGkM- >The biggest problem with that is the delivery. I'm sure people will catch on to the fact that I'm reading from a screen instead of actually paying attention to them. Going back to actors, actors and news anchors often read from teleprompters. Again, practice is key! >yellow teeth Brush your teeth I guess >slur, stutter Try practicing the sounds you have trouble with. This is going to sound weird, but experiment with your mouth, see if you can produce different sounds. As for the stutter, well that's psychological. Note when you stutter to see what your trigger is. >Now you're just trolling. Please, be better than that. You clearly haven't been here long. Trust me, I've been regularly here for a little less than a year, and I can tell you, Chobitsu is being 100% genuine. The matter of fact is, the mini AI speaker is too ambitious. You would need to have PERFECT speech synthesis (matched to your voice), rendered almost instantaneously, from a computer that you have to hide on yourself. There's also the fact that speakers don't sound like normal human speech. If I play a Donald Trump speech on my phone, it doesn't sound like Donald Trump is in the room, it sounds like I have a Donald Trump speech on my phone. And that's only the technical side which I at first considered, later I realized the subtle horror of having something constantly speak for me on it's own.
>>41689 >Have you tried practicing? I'm 36. If I need to start taking lessons on how to sound like a normal human being at this age, I'm too far gone. >Brush your teeth I guess It's a deep cola-induced stain. And no amount of brushing that will fix my small teeth, and mouth is practically too small for my tongue. >You clearly haven't been here long. Long enough to know Chobitsu knows my IP and that he was threatening to ban me yesterday over religious BS, which is the sole reason why he decided to bring it up. >You would need to have PERFECT speech synthesis (matched to your voice) It'd probably be better if it didn't sound like me. >rendered almost instantaneously, from a computer that you have to hide on yourself. The only problem with that is battery life. You can strap a decent-sized laptop to your back without anyone questioning it if there isn't a fan blasting like it's ready for take-off. >There's also the fact that speakers don't sound like normal human speech. A bigger issue is that I'd be walking around with a face-concealing helmet. People can easily be duped into thinking it's just part of a costume and has a voice modulator, but the hard part is making something that doesn't look like it exists solely for the sake of hiding your identity while you mug them.
>>41686 >There are consumer EEG headsets like the ones from OpenBCI, and there is Facial Emotion Recognition (FER) software available for free. Well, as I mentioned, don't just talk about it, do it! You'll have my encouragement support as long as you keep us here all up to date on your progress. Good luck, Anon. :^) >Now you're just trolling. Please, be better than that. Lol. I assure you, I was not!! :D >>41691 >Long enough to know Chobitsu knows my IP Incorrect. I don't know anyone's IP address here (or anywhere else). And if I did, I would delete that information.

(cf. my thread: >>10000 ) --- >which is the sole reason why he decided to bring it up.

I'd actually like your participation there as long as you adhere to that thread's specific, special rules. Regardless, as I mentioned, you're quite free to say what you want along those lines in the philosophy thread. Just don't violate board rules #1 & #2 while you're at it! (cf. >>3 ) Cheers, Anon. :^)
