This explains why this promising technology can’t be put to good use, why there can’t be a compensation model similar to YouTube’s, why it’s called artificial intelligence, and all that.

It’s an ideological issue, and it’s dominated by those who are used to their work being worth an absurd amount of money per hour— it's promoted by the combined power of all those vultures who have never accomplished even the slightest thing in their lives. It’s the wet dream of Wall Street hedge fund managers and CEOs who keep moving on after they’ve ruined yet another company.

That’s why it’s so incredibly fitting that the U.S. regime is betting so heavily on LLMs—they’re the prime example of the very actors preventing humanity from benefiting from this technological achievement. They epitomize what happens when egregious incompetence, criminal energy, and utter unscrupulousness are given opportunities and power that they should never have.

Are stories about dragons just allegories about the uber-wealthy and the dangers of hoarding wealth?

Now the addiction is set in; your brain is too aware of it to let this happen.

They make laws really overcomplicated so that most people have no choice but hire lawyers

All corn can’t become popcorn, the kernel’s skin in something like yellow corn is too thick. So after corn was domesticated another variety with thinner skin had to emerge before the first popcorn could be made.

Imagine just trying to roast the staple crop you’ve grown up eating and it suddenly explodes and turns into this feather light white fluffy thing. If I didn’t grow up knowing what popcorn was I don’t know what I’d think.

Google Maps or Apple Maps, they work the same way. With your permission, they detect your location and speed and collect all the information and can tell people relatively accurate traffic conditions.

So why does Weather go online to ask the temperature when you’re outside and it could just measure the actual temperature, collate all the data, and tell people the temperature it actually is?

Aside from the fact that most phones can’t tell the temperature around them. I mean if they could.

I’m starting to believe the authorities are lying to us about the heat. My car can tell me the temperature, and it’s usually like 5°F hotter than my phone says.

mods in .world removed it so I try my luck here

like when bees clean each other or humans comb the fur of their hampters

People say "your ass" in place of "you", "my ass" in place of "me", "his ass" in place of "him", and "her ass" in place of "her"

She would have immediately known the mysterious magic diary was Voldemort's and wouldn't have kept interacting with it. She probably would have given it to her parents and they probably would have sent it to Dumbledore to destroy

Am I the only one who thinks this is just hilariously idiotic?

Title says it all.

I'm not sure when or where this occurred, but at some point I just became less inclined to speak up on social media. I still do, of course, but now there's this little...cringe....inside of me whenever I do. The sarcasm, the gaslighting, the armchair 'experts' who seemingly exist just to punch holes in whatever opinion I have - this mean-spiritedness has made me far, far less likely to engage in most conversations online. And, I've watch this translate over into my offline life, as well. It seems like my world has become a gigantic minefield where every step could potentially blow up in my face from someone who somehow got offended by something I said, or someone who has made it their life's mission to correct every opinion I have. I just....stopped engaging, for the most part.

What's even worse is that I've found myself exhibiting the exact same sort of behavior from time to time. It's like social media is trying to train me to be argumentative and rude. Everyone tells me that it's 'just the way it is', but I can't help feeling like we can do better....or at least wishing that we could.
