I see this...

...and I just want to check.
Does that include assembly language ?

No, but I heard support for VAX/VMS DCL is in the works.

I'd say yes. In nasm, at least. Probably masm and others, too.
Nasm makes it fairly easy to call the win32 API. I'm pretty sure you could use ReadFile to open an image and then use WinHTTP to send a network request to SenseAI. Heck, if you're bored you could construct an HTTP request the old fashioned way and then open a socket and fire it across. This would be easy in masm as well (easy being relative, given that we'd be writing assembly).
Then, you'd just have to parse the JSON SenseAI sends back. Not simple, granted, but not impossible either. If you're allowed to cheat and call a C library from assembly, that would make the JSON parsing simpler.
So, there you go. You should be able to use SenseAI from assembly. I'm not sure it's the best use of your time, but it does sound kind of fun!

I just assumed that "computing" was a recent phenomenon, and that we always used to "calculate". So I'm consulting some literature from the 1880's and they're "computing" here and there.
So, I compared definitions and "calculating" indicates simplicity whereas "computing" indicates complexity.
So, don't calculate when you should be computing.

But maybe some things which can be calculated can't be computed.
"Computability" doesn't seem to apply to calculating women.

I calculate I'll be compute'n for the end of the day!

For a long time a "computer" was a person who computed. Before about 1960, if you worked for an insurance company for example, working out actuarial tables and the like, your job description might be "computer".

Hmm, yes, but I would expect such a man to be a computor, his couterpart being a computrix.
A computer would be an inanimate object.

Might be your expectation, but it doesn't match reality. See this from NASA or read the book/watch the movie "Hidden Figures."

Then of course there are comptometers (from 1862) and their operators, comptometrists...

But if I am a computer I must be able to assume I will be turned on daily. I'm not.

Calculating is human math.
It is computing if you use a PC for that math. In the 1880's the term is correct; we even had humans computing in that era.
Just posting, because you sound confused on the idea.

Your "explanations" are always a delight.
Is crypto still "money"?

There's a reason why it's not called the Association of Calculating Machinery.

computer computes calculations

If my calculations are correct, you've correctly computed these calculations.
|

IMHO computing may be distinguished by the inclusion of logical operations, which don't generally appear in calculations.
