Actually reminds me of some lines from a closing of a comedy act on this very topic: https://youtu.be/JdJwzSsLWZM

Instead of talking about all the things you loose for standing up for the right thing, talk about all the things you gain.

So was Microsoft having to cancel their media event to deal with a break in. I guess humor really is subjective

There’s a difference between seeing and perceiving. If you see AI slop and don’t see how it is different than something crafted by a human expert, that is a problem of one’s perception.

1. How Generative AI is framed by the industry is an affront to humanistic values.

2. It’s not even close to consciousness. For those of us who understand how these things work it’s almost an insult to make the comparison.

3. All the other unethical considerations mentioned elsewhere by others (stealing art, water usage, politics).

There are about ~3000 billionaires. Or a billionaire every minute.

I mean churches should be anticapitalist and before the turn of the last century they often were. But then property got expensive and churches would need loans… Now we have prosperity gospel and mega churches. The internet ran the same course but in just a couple decades.

Aside from the systemic reasons why the internet leans heavily right: when you deport people’s neighbors then politics is no longer a sports game and even the nonvoters understand this.

Being a billionaire is like staying alive long enough to be a villain. They were great at something but nothing justifies holding that much power for so long.

Also introduced voucher schools because he didn’t want teachers telling him laptops won’t solve education

Was the paper optimizing for multiple objectives? Sounds like this project is pursuing some features that haven’t been proven

IDK about “white knight”; I first heard the phrase “dangerous by default” from a black man recounting how he got nervous being on an elevator with a white woman.

“Dangerous by default” is one hell of a thing to internalize 😞

That is the definition of liberalism but that is not the loved experience of unhoused people in the USA. If you are unhoused there are a lot of moral judgements that come along with that.

Harder? Being queer and unhoused can be pretty damn bad in the states. In China your boss might say something bad but you don’t have to worry about being homeless.

Yeah, I got questions about Tienanmen, but not the same ones. Like was the CIA involved in the counter protest outside the school campus?

Also, there is searchable queer content on RedNote, the app own by the CCP

AI is maturing into what exactly?

My TikTok feed is rather radical, which is a non+option on all the other corporate platforms.

It’s a perfect commodity, which means it’s going to be worth the least out of anything out there.

There’s a difference between being annoying online and being hated because you think Scrooge McDuck wasn’t greedy enough. No one is going to ice you for having bad tales on the Internet.
