  • Goddamn you guys are the most paranoid people I’ve ever witnessed. What in the world do you think mega corps are going to do to me for sharing incoherent nonsense to Facebook?

    You, 10-20 years ago. I heard these arguments from people in the early days, well before Facebook blew up or Cambridge Analytica was a name any normies knew.

    This isn’t the early 00s anymore where we can pretend that every big corp isn’t vacuuming up every shred of data they can. Add on the fascistic government taking shape in the US and the general trend towards right leaning parties gaining power in governments across the world, and you’d have to be completely naive to not see the issues with using a ‘therapist’ that will save every datapoint to its training and could be mined to use against you or willingly handed over to an oppressive government to use however they so choose.






  • scratch a Musk-stan and you’ll likely find a Weeb who is also a MAGAt.

    So your argument is that weebs are musk stans/MAGAts?

    If not, what point are you trying to make? Because a weeb may be a musk stan/MAGAt, but let’s not target weebs just because some of them are shitheads.

    These aren’t exclusive.

    But your argument assumes the relationship goes both ways, which isn’t even close to true. An individual weeb may be a MAGAt, but all weebs aren’t.

    So your argument pretty much falls apart, unless you’re just going after weebs for personal reasons.

    Lol, I can’t even downvote you cuz my instance doesn’t support them.

    I’m genuinely curious because it sounds like you’re suggesting that the models are moving past just being generative transformers into something more intelligent, and I just have not seen evidence of that. Only empty claims of it existing and using very weak examples of ‘novel responses’ that still is just a generative transformers response.

    But sure, if you can’t support your point with solid evidence, passive aggressive dismissal of skepticism works just as well. People are constantly fed a narrative that AI is amazing and can do all this novel shit, but I have yet to see anything to back it up.

    The only time you’re wasting is time you could be improving yourself. By having the AI write for you, you’re choosing to not improve your writing/research/analytical skills, and hoping the dipshit bot that’s writing your essay doesn’t just make bullshit up out of whole cloth.

    I’m not saying not to use the AI to assist with the process, but IMO that should be more on the gathering sources side than the composition side.




  • One of those groups is a marginalized group with no power, and the other is literally the embodiment of state violence.

    Police *should" be held to a different standard than immigrants or literally any other civilian.

    The double standard is so funny and sad to me

    Agreed, but for entirely opposite reasons.
