Considering how 4chan is, a more likely outcome is that you’re getting called at least 3 different slurs because someone will either hate the slop, or perceive your insecurity about being unable to do art and decide to attack you.

Our bosses sold this “AI analysis system” thing to another company, and for the most part it was a horribly vibecoded but otherwise unremarkable dashboard. But the AI analysis part? It’s a fucking chatbot that all it does is ask you which graph and which data you want and it picks from list of preset graphs in the frontend code, and then makes a call to preset endpoints in the backend to get the data to fill it… All things that could be done without the chatbot in the middle.

Most “AI products” are the same griftware.

The real problem is that only the first part of the wish got granted: everyone has computers, but they don’t know how they work and thus can’t use them responsibly.

Mine has nearly everything other than brand preferences wrong, since I buy both my stuff and other people’s stuff plus gifts through the same account.

The older you get the easier it gets to abandon all streaming services to be honest.

Every high production value movie is a cliche you can guess 5 minutes in. And the few outliers get so much publicity you will probably hear about them anyway and be able to get a copy through other means.

I guess it’s also why apparently CD sales have been picking up. Easier to just rip your favorite music and listen to/stream your own collection than deal with a mess of different services.

In the Chinese Room scenario, cards with Chinese written on them are inserted into a box.

Inside there is a man who doesn’t understand Chinese but has a lookup list of which symbols to write as a response to every possible sentence you can write on the inserted card.

For anyone observing from outside the box it looks as if whatever is in the box is fluent in Chinese and can hold a conversation. But the man inside does not understand anything about Chinese.

This is used as an analogy to explain that machines, very much like the man in the box, do not actually understand the data they are fed, nor the data they output, no matter how human the response might seem.

It was an argument against the Turing test, which is about whether machines showing behaviour indistinguishable from a human is a sign that they can think.

The Chinese Room argument is that they must also show understanding of the data itself, rather than just human-like responses, to say that they think.

The problem is that they see people hating the torment nexus and then they assume it must be because they didn’t market it correctly.

Like "oh I guess they don’t like it because they can’t share it, let’s add a suffering multiplexer so they can enjoy it with friends and family^*

I’m so glad I never gave any serious amount of money to Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo.

Or the Steam Deck/all the handhelds that support Linux/SteamOS

It’s yet another distro being shilled by god knows who on YouTube and other social media.

The fact that it’s being pushed so hard without anything of note about it is already suspicious to me.

Right wing newspapers love to do this shit where I live. We get into a crisis, people start skipping meals because they don’t have money, and they will talk about the health benefits of dieting and fasting 🙄
