Ending nine wars [lowers sunglasses to look you dead in the eye] and starting ten new ones.

In the criminal justice system, snowball-based offenses are considered especially heinous. In New York City, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Snowball Unit. These are their stories.

They think the AI is a big baby who requires the entire sum of all human knowledge and labor to “raise” it. Absolute idiots
Missing from all of the AI hype is the fact that we know almost NOTHING about the brain, so almost everything we know about “making” fake intelligence/learning is based on like, 5% of what there is to know scientifically and even that is super theoretical. The rest is ideology, and theirs sucks!
This is the most incredible footage of blue whales I’ve ever seen
Sadly the main difference is Do The Rich Like It?
Unflinching refusal to use or allow the use of A.I. in reading & writing should be the uncontroversial, default position of teachers from K-12 to colleges & universities. If our administrators tell us we "have to" we tell them to eff off. We will not kill the planet's water for systemic plagiarism.
Isn't this just Christ-washed child trafficking?
half a sandwich and humans are able to do whatever, including being wrong. is chatgpt powered by basically nothing yet?

I sympathize. My recommendation is to give yourself exactly 90 super focused seconds to find and buy one. I smashed my case and then instantly looked one up and bought another one before I went into a train tunnel. Have had it for three years, get compliments constantly
Instead of "the left isn't paying enough attention to these machine gods" they're claiming to build, perhaps we should write an article about how effective altruists brand themselves "left", ask who is writing these articles, and trace their cults and sources of funding.
I’ve spent 45 years craving art that would feed my imagination and let me see new worlds and new parts of myself, while the kinds of people who love AI called that “a waste of time”.
Now they want to force-feed me slop and I’m at fault for saying “no”?
Fuck them.
Part of the argument is 'if it's so crap, why are people talking about it and investing in it?' He might as well be talking about tulips
Jesus lives on the moon
Moderate Dems aren’t doing it bc it’s what the base wants. They want to force most of their own base to vote for the lesser of two evils as a defensive tactic, while appealing to the right to make up for the lack of enthusiasm of their own base for genuinely terrible policies.
