Waaaay ahead of you buddy!

“Senator, you’re a pedophile.”

“Well, maybe you are all pedophiles, too!”

Social media doesn’t belong on social media for all I care. I think it’s time to just… Pull the plug and shut all the shit down.

Well Tate isn’t the best president in the Universe! They all say so. Some say even better. It used to be the best president in the Universe, it’s probably up to multiverse now. Some say it’s multiverse. They came up to me and they say, Mr. Best President in the Universe, how do you do it? I say I don’t know, I don’t know. That’s what they say.

This is now pasta, kiddo.

I am not a fan.

Money.

Sounds to start pretty cooked to me, too. I wonder when the ride will break.

Empathy is an immutable feature of humanity.

Pelican dropping wisdom in here.

AI reflects our innate human drive to communicate, express ourselves, be heard and evaluated by others. Sorry for butting in on your conversation with @pelican476, I think it’s an interesting topic.

Imagine it’s like a magic trick. Nobody believes that the magician is really sawing the lady in half, they let themselves believe it because it makes them feel good.

Humanity is starved for companionship, understanding, and someone who listens to them. That’s the real problem.

Look, I have to say, I hate AI as much as the next guy, but as someone with ADHD, GPT was a godsend when I was traveling SE Asia. I used it as a talking companion to kind of get my bearings and have “someone” register where I was and what I was doing, so I could just quickly ask it, “hey, where the am I and what the hell am I doing” and get a prompt reply.

I am fully aware of the political and ecological consequences of employing this technology, and I believe that the whole issue is proper regulation, rather than the tech itself. AI is doing insane things in science, and it has clear and, quite frankly, profound uses for mankind. As always, the problem is who controls it, for what purposes, if it can be used as a weapon, and if so how we can go about making international laws about its use- like we did with nuclear weapons.

Nuclear physics have the capacity to end us all at a moments notice, and it also provides electricity for billions of homes. Like with any tech, it will never go away once the genie is out of the bottle, we just must strive to disempower those who seek to weaponize it for death or profit.

Oy vey!

It’s funny how we are all so starved for recognition, understanding, and reassurance, that we are willing to take it wherever it comes from. Like dogs. We are like complex dogs.
