apparently in the sex purge movie gay premarital sex is legal and this is neither explained nor explored
I am anti-AI because: -it has ruined the public internet -it is shoehorned into everything for any reason with no use case -all of the advertising and pushers make it seem like it wants to take from me (job, livelihood) with no clear tradeoff -proponents are some of the worst people imaginable
seeing people complain about this and just truly baffled, what is wrong with y'all, this is not just fine this is unequivocally good and the right thing to do
A gracious concession: “I want to congratulate Abdul El-Sayed on winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. He is a doctor, a community health official, a Rhodes Scholar, and a dedicated Michigander. I am proud to offer my support as he takes on Mike Rogers in the general election…

I don't use AI for anything. I don't use it for brainstorming or idea generation or any of the supposedly fine things it allegedly does. ChatGPT has never spoken to me. Claude doesn't even know my name. Much like cocaine, I t's extremely easy to not do if you don't start.
Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak
the thing about cinema discusso is that it’s a subforum for people who lack basic media literacy but also think they’re smarter than everyone else
it’s amazing that there are ostensibly famous British people i never know about until they die and are remembered as a pedophile
I feel like being extremely online can warp your brain and make you behave in really narcissistic or paranoid ways. I’ve seen it, and I’ve gone through it a bit myself. What’s important is you remember who you actually are deep down. In my case, this is pretty much it.
I think I’m getting more and more out of touch and it’s great I love not knowing who some stupid asshole is
solving the masculinity crisis by putting up this poster with the phrase "she let me hit it cuz I'm goofy" in all highschool classrooms
Analysts estimate that 70%+ of Microsoft, Google and Amazon's present and future AI revenues are from Anthropic and OpenAI's compute spend and model sales. Outside of two unsustainable AI labs, demand barely exists, and they've massively overbuilt capacity. www.wheresyoured.at/the-ai-deman...

the mainstream press praising rod liddle in death are not unaware he was a bigoted pedophile, they like him for it. the people in their in-group, at the top of their hierarchy, getting away with crimes signals that the world is in order. it is a moral good, to them. the bigger the crimes the better
cop: did he send any texts around the time of the crash? cop 2: he sent a post that reads "padding my three track album with 26 skits and interludes" cop: not bad but it ain't going viral cop 2: posting isn't just about going viral cop: (sighs) not this shit again

This Seattle mayor is a train wreck:
It is funny that as more people get duped by AI, the response more frequently seems to be to insist that the models are developing godlike intelligence and we all need to be sooo careful when the real lesson is clearly that the human psyche can get absolutely one-shotted by personalized flattery
