If you legitimately believe this then you are a clown. Terminator came out in what year again? Lmaoooo

“As AI researchers in the 1960s and 1970s began to use computers to recognize images, translate between languages, and understand instructions in normal language and not just code, the idea that computers would eventually develop the ability to speak and think—and thus to do evil—bubbled into mainstream culture.”

Another article from before OpenAI was even a blip on the radar:

It even has its own Wikipedia article! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existential_risk_from_artificial_general_intelligence

Are you suggesting that architectural styles are not based on interactions with different peoples and that the type of architecture, for example, from 200-500CE is not going to vary greatly in different regions such as East Asia and Europe? And that those peoples with individual cultures and ideas about architecture won’t ever interact with their neighbors, creating cross-cultural styles? That these cultures will never interact and reach a quorum on specific styles of buildings, especially when brought together through larger institutions such as religion?

From a content creator’s standpoint, sure. The issue is that when the end user doesn’t have a shiny new thing they’re interested in in front of them every 30 or so seconds they just log off and stop using the service. Why use mastodon if bluesky/threads/whatever shows them, generally, more of what they want to see and less of what they don’t?

Most people are using social media as a way to veg out and unwind these days. They don’t really care if somebody is able to game the system, just that they see more that lets them veg out (or alternatively makes them angry, driving increased engagement).

I agree that this is generally bad, but trying to sidestep it completely like Mastodon is is just going to result in a network that never hits the critical mass necessary to start exponential growth.

There’s also just the issue of the fact that there’s significantly more books, articles, etc. written in standard english vs AAVE so that’s gonna be a huuuge barrier to overcome regardless of diversity of development and training teams. Not to say diversity isn’t important, but also that there’s just certain challenges surrounding finding adequate amounts of high quality training data, especially for less mainstream concepts. It’s the same reason an AI couldn’t give a summary of a book that has almost no info abt it on the internet.

That’s an insult to 6th graders

Compared to the average person, yes, you are a very heavy user. Most people use their laptop for little more than browsing the internet.

I have 8 and am able to play 4x games at high settings w/o significant lag until late game lol. People really tend to blow this one out of proportion. Unless you’re an incredibly heavy user you probably don’t need more than 8 and 16 still feels luxurious.

Another argument for buying your teenager cigarettes…

Average is one in 30? Wild. The P&G plant near my house was at a few hundred days with no incidents recently. For Tesla to be doing even worse than 1/30 tho? Yikes

THIS is unfortunately not true.

Those that wrought it will not feel its effects.

I mean realistically speaking the vast majority of the effects of climate change in our or even our children’s lifetimes are going to most dramatically affect developing nations by far.

Like yeah, by and large the people with AC in almost every home in the country are gonna be fine lol. Places where there’s already problems with getting everyone clean drinking water? Not so much.

In that case it would only take a couple of planes worth of stealing before you jad enough plutonium for at least a dirty bomb if not a nuclear weapon lol.

Like wut? Thorium still needs plutonium to work and plutonium can be used for both cases just as uranium afaik.

Sadly there aren’t “good guys” and “bad guys” in real life. Just people and their actions, for which they must answer.

Being part of the oppressed group doesn’t make Hamas free from criticism and judgement.

There are Palestinian groups working for peaceful solutions.

There’s also a far right terror group that decided to carry out a random attack on Israeli civilians that was instated by the Israeli government and rules through fear.

One group isn’t good just because another is bad. Figure it out
