So, I’m selfhosting immich, the issue is we tend to take a lot of pictures of the same scene/thing to later pick the best, and well, we can have 5~10 photos which are basically duplicates but not quite.
Some duplicate finding programs put those images at 95% or more similarity.
I’m wondering if there’s any way, probably at file system level, for the same images to be compressed together.
Maybe deduplication?
Have any of you guys handled a similar situation?
Everything you just described is instruction. Everything from an input path and desired result can be tracked and followed to a conclusory instruction. That is not decision making.
Again. Computers do not make decisions.
Agree to disagree. Something makes a decision about how to classify the images and it’s certainly not the person writing 10 lines of code. I’d be interested in having a good faith discussion, but repeating a personal opinion isn’t really that. I suspect this is more of a metaphysics argument than anything and I don’t really care to spend more time on it.
I hope you have a wonderful day, even if we disagree.
It’s Boolean. This isn’t an opinion, it’s a fact. Feel free to get informed though.
Then it should be easy to find peer reviewed sources that support that claim.
I found it incredibly easy to find countless articles suggesting that your Boolean is false. Weird hill to die on. Have a good day.

LITERALLY from a “baby’s first 'puter” course: https://highered.mheducation.com/sites/007256380x/student_view0/part1/chapter2/reading_selection_quiz.html#:~:text=Although computers may appear to,humans who programmed the computers.&text=Humans are smarter than computers.&text=It is extremely time-consuming,that it makes correct decisions.

You seem very upset, so I hate to inform you that neither one of those are peer reviewed sources and that they are simplyfing things.
“Learning” is definitely something a machine can do and then they can use that experience to coordinate actions based on data that is inaccesible to the programmer. If that’s not “making a decision”, then we aren’t speaking the same language. Call it what you want and argue with the entire published field or AI, I guess. That’s certainly an option, but generally I find it useful for words to mean things without getting too pedantic.
🙄
“Pedantic Asshole tries the whole ‘You seem upset’ but on the Internet and proceeds to try and explain their way out of being embarrassed about being wrong, so throws some idiotic semantics into a further argument while wrong.”
Great headline.
Computers also don’t learn, or change state. Apparently you didn’t read the CS101 link after all.
Also, another newsflash is coming in here, one sec:
“Textbooks and course plans written by educators and professors in the fields they are experts in are not ‘peer reviewed’ and worded for your amusement, dipshit.”
Whoa, that was a big one.
