  6. Voice assistants ought to be like Orac from Blake's 7; rude but helpful, mostly harmless. LLM chatbots with text-to-speech-to-text are exactly the opposite; polite but unreliable, and often harmful.

  14. Google has Tensor Processing Units for running machine learning.

    I've watched enough Blake's 7 to know that Orac is probably in development.

    "Orac's abilities mainly revolved around its abilities to instantaneously access the tarial cells of other computers and either access information or control them remotely. "

  24. Triphala has a much higher ORAC than its constituent ingredients, and I don't like that.

    Is it an artifact of the test we use to determine ORAC? Is it the result of a secondary compound produced by the combination in response to oxidation? Is it just some mistake a chemist made years ago that people never tried to reproduce? WHY!?

    Makes me regret eschewing chemistry in favor of more pure things. I didn't appreciate how much of modern life is chemistry / math is seductive af 😭

  29. Just finished rewatching Series 1 of Blake's Seven 💫, and Orac appears in the final episode ... though I'm sure his voice changed later on. Also he appears to have 4 USB slots (?) which was good in 1978.

    If you can overlook cheap sets and props and that it's a bit "Shakespeare in Space", there's a lot of good things. Paul Darrow (Avon) and Jackie Pearce (Servelan) both magnificent. Stephen Greif (Travis, in S1) too.

  34. #Blakes7 season 1 finale: #Orac

    Blake and Cally teleport to the surface of the planet Aristo, which looks like a quarry. There is an #obelisk.

    Blake: "Some sort of obelisk, I suppose."

    Apart from this one line of dialogue, no further reference is made to the obelisk and its purpose is never explained.

    Was the obelisk in the script? Or did it just happen to be standing in the quarry for some random reason, and it is Gareth Thomas, not Blake, who makes the remark?
