I'm sure it's a repost, but i always love to see it lol
Fuck AI
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
I do to, it always ruffles a bunch of feathers.
The volume on the ruffling is up since last time, which i find very interesting. Like even if you made this bit about something i did, like websearching, i wouldn't get so tilted.
I wonder what it is about llms that gets people so defensive.
Suits really really want LLMs to be able to replace employees, so suits and sycophantic morons both get unreasonbaly tilted when they're rightfully mocked or proven fucking braindead for those wishes.
I'm sure it's a lot of things. The bottom line, though, is that the fruit is too sweet. And so you get a dynamic very similar to veganism, climate change, health-conscious eating, anti-smoking, etc., where people want to behold their fruits without feeling like they're villains for it—criticism of smoking is to criticise a person for smoking as well, you see? It becomes like a moral failing of their character. It's just insecurity.
Bitcoin didn't really catch on because, besides money laundering schemes, it doesn't really have a purpose. But AI has lots of purposes. It eases the burden of writing, it can do your homework for you, it's a better search engine because google sabotaged their own, it can generate DnD assets for "free"—and lastly, this is a really big one, it fills an emotional niche in lonely people.
I can't promise that in a world where people didn't live their whole lives in suburban houses, in small bedrooms, on their computer all day with remarkably few friends, that people wouldn't take to gen AI as much as they do, but it's certainly not helping.
Suburban households and their culture have been a disaster for the human race.
Let's be honest though if there were sex bots AI would be even more popular than it already is
Well I have news for you, my friend.
(Shows all the weird sex AI chatbots)
Nah, man. That won't cut it.
The day real doll bots can suck dick without me doing anything but watch and enjoy, that's the day I'll get one and become asocial.
if that was available, i think it would be harder for alt-right extremism to take hold
I don't want to steer the conversation towards U.S. politics. Let's focus on making sex robots that look like Margot Robbie happen once and for all.
Sadly the US isn't the only place right wing morons have or are gaining traction.
Well, shit.
I hope one day I can cry and my Margot Robbie robot can comfort me by bringing me chocolate.
not even just the US but everywhere!
i feel like if everyone could get their PP touched the world would be a better place! and it truly wouldn't matter if what was touching ones PP was a robot/device/ combination of devices or just another human being. (with their own addictions, triggers, baggage, debt, preconceptions about what the PP holder has to do to justify feeling such a connection)
i know this sounds like Incel talk but that's precisely the kind of person that can easily get roped into malicious ideologies because nobody wants to suck on their ridiculous unwashed genitals.
those types of people could unload their genetic material into something that will keep them from being unwilling parents forced to raise another human with potentially similar values.
i see a lot of good in a world like that
I love women, but sometimes I just don't want to deal with the stuff they may bring into a relationship (sexual or otherwise). Not because they're women. Let's just say because they're human.
So it's not only "incel" men benefitting from this.
"MARGOT!! Time for my nightly oil rub" "Ok, thanks. Please clean up and put yourself away."
agreed! from this moment on PP stands for "precious penis/precious p***y"

You all need to read up on Marxism and capitalist alienation
Care to elaborate?
It's complicated, and maybe I wrote too soon. I admit that this exact phenomenon and its discussion are very nebulous. But I see that there is talk about the growing loneliness problem in the United States, Japan, Korea, and elsewhere. This is caused by:
- People not wanting to raise children in today's world. This is because of wealth inequality, which is the result of overaccumulation from the bourgeoise and weakening of the proletariat. This is explained well in Blackshirts And Reds by Michael Parenti. There is also the problem of climate change that the book also brings up, which also dissuades parents from having kids.
- People not having enough money to raise kids. Again, this is because of the weakening of the proletariat. Rights like parental leave, like all other political rights, are not simply bestowed by some higher power, but are the result of a compromise between the owning and working class, where the owning class forfeits some of its power due to massive strikes and protests. This lack of power goes from parents to their kids. TL;DR In the United States, Korea, Japan, and elsewhere, men and women are overworked. And while a small amount of people have a massive amount of money they don't need, the rest of the people can't even afford to have children. This is because of the logic of Capitalism, where money is pursued instead of everything else, and everything is turned into money, which translates into power.
oh poor baby
Played around with music stuff out of curiosity. Will not be using it in the future, unless it can be used to make editing easier (splicing sections, decreasing volume in specific sections, altering instruments, etc), but that is already easier than ever with current technology. AI lacks soul and it just sounds too… mathematical, if that makes sense. Glad I never had the desire to use it for anything else.
