The back-fire effect explains why so many people love to watch Fox News, even when they’ve admitted in court that they’re not news and no rational person would take them seriously. Reinforcing beliefs through propaganda is comforting - and no amount logic or fact checking is going to change it.

… yeah we’re basically fucked as a species.

Lol I’m sure that would end badly. Remember that QAnon crazy guy that fired shots at that pizza restaurant demanding to see the basement where they kept the kids tied up?

Google is basically a conspiracy theorist peddler at the point.

What 3d printing software do you use in your country that detects if gun parts are being printed?

Because as far as I know, that’s impossible.

Edit: I assume the downvote confirms such software doesn’t exist.

California is trying to do the same thing. https://youtu.be/5ax9zW0w_gY

My wife works at a library. People constantly come in asking to use the library fax machine, because Google’s AI says they have one.

They don’t have one. Their website says they don’t have one. But LLMs have determined it’s plausible for libraries to have a fax machine, so Google tells people that they have one.

You’d be surprised at the number of people who can’t accept that people working at the library know more about the library than Google.

Jesus Christ Lemmy

Still do! At least that one guy…

Ooo that feels like it should be illegal.

But now that you mention it, that’s kind of how the Best Buy deal worked. They didn’t automatically split up the payments for you like a car or home loan. It was a credit card, so you could pay the minimum balance every month. But paying the minimum balance wasn’t enough to actually pay off the whole thing in 2 years.

Nah, it says to be excluded you have to be the “passive partner” so power bottoms are still allowed.

From https://artincontext.org/the-cursed-woman-painting-by-tassaert/

The title can possibly refer to prejudices related to women and their open sexuality during the 1800s; in other words, a woman so open and free is “damned” because she is not chaste or coy.

Worth it?

Training an LLM on League would surely set us down the road to Skynet and eventually Terminators.

And as a hole

Dude ate mustard and people lost their minds.

Actually that’s not fair, they lost their minds because he was black. But still.

Not to mention that having AI fulfill the responsibilities of junior devs means than in the long run, you’re preventing junior devs from growing into senior devs.

Eventually we’re going to have a problem where no one is qualified to know what the hell is going on.

One of my friends, who has never had a cat, told me that cats were way stupider than dogs because they didn’t follow basic commands and probably didn’t even know their own names.

I think it takes living with cats to realize that they are smart as hell and understand a lot of what you’re saying - they just don’t give a fuck.

Yeah, I also started dating my wife before cellphone cameras were good. So my profile picture of her is like a 50x50 pixel blurry-ass photo.

In hindsight, a blurry ass-photo would’ve been nice too.

I should call her…
