    Calculator Fun
AI Thread Summary
TI calculators, including models like the TI-82, 83, 86, and 89, offer capabilities beyond basic mathematics. Users can engage in robotics, data collection, and game development using TI-Basic or assembly languages, depending on the model. Resources like ticalc.org provide tutorials, games, and programming support for enthusiasts. While some users enjoy creating applications in TI-Basic, others find the language cumbersome and prefer using C for programming. The potential for building robots with these calculators is highlighted as an exciting opportunity for users to explore.

If you own any type of TI calculator (82, 83, 83+, 86, 89, 92, etc.), you may not know that it can do a lot more than math! You can build a robot (http://smallrobot.com), collect data like distance, velocity and acceleration (http://www.eaiusa.com/mo__texas__instruments__calculators__CBL-CBR.htm ) or make cool games in TI-Basic or assembly (Motorola 68K or Z80--depending on your device.)

I started on http://ticalc.org, so if you find this message interesting, you may want to check it out. They have games, programming and hardware tutorials, and news.

So, any other calcaholics out there?

Computer science news on Phys.org
I used to have some fun making games and other apps in ti-basic. It was fun but the language was absolutily horrible. I'll stick to C, thank you very much. Although, i didn't know i could make it into a robot. I'm going to have to check that out.

In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity. 1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
i am customizing a Linux distro [arch] into love os which I am building to impress my crush. I had an idea to integrate an ai model into the Linux system so it can speak like me but romantically. but I don't know what or how to do. I don't know the basic concept of Linux but yet I am customizing my os purely relying on chat gpt and perplexity. when i ask chat gpt about this it said to fine tune an ai model and integrate to the Linux distro and my friend said for the data to be fed to the ai...
