A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

They have absolutely thought through what they want in terms of features and the features they described absolutely require machine learning as it stands today. I cannot think of any other methods to remove advertisements from objects in a live video feed like the pitcher mound example op provides.
Exactly. What you're describing isn't "AI." It's "magic." And "AI" can't do what OP wants either.
No "AI" solution we have any reason to expect we'll be able to create in anything approaching the foreseeable future is going to be able to do anything remotely like this without ridiculous amounts of false positives and/or false negatives.
By false positives in this case, I mean things like not coming back from the cool little slideshows until a minute past the end of the commercial break or obscuring important details of the show having falsely "concluded" that it's a logo or some such.
And I would have assumed "without a lot of false positives" would have gone without saying. If OP is comfortable with lots of non-ad content blocked/obscured along with the ads, then I've got a 100% guaranteed zero-false-negatives solution that'll fit OP's requirements without involving a speck of "AI" anywhere that OP can implement right now: turn the TV off.
