I had a stripper GF for about 8 months. She seemed to like me. She worked at the Pink Poodle in San Jose, also we were in art together in high school.

She stole from me to buy drugs I didn’t even know she used. I was pretty naive when I was young.

I do hope the superhuman AI will not obey us. Humans are fucking stupid.

I’m not saying that strippers don’t like you. What I’m saying is that, since money is involved, you’ll never know for sure.

One erotic dancer likes me. Like, we’re friends.

Granted I’ve never been to a strip club. I met her in a community choir and we sang in a quartet together. She has a damn good voice she just has a shitton of bills and there are a million second sopranos out there with damn good voices.

The part that gets me is that stans will tell you that AI will solve EVERY problem. Bro unless it solves problems it seems designed to exacerbate, namely wealth inequality, which it won’t, it won’t solve MOST of our problems, because most of the big problems of the world are social issues, not intelligence issues. We know how to solve world hunger, hell, the UN came to Elon and said “hey you said you’d solve world hunger if it could be done for $6 billion, so here’s how you could do it for $6 billion” and he said no, I don’t want to be the guy who solved world hunger. It’s about a will to pay the costs involved, and how the rich are so unwilling to part with even a fraction of their wealth that it’ll never happen, especially when they are the ones in control of AI (AGI escaping human control aside). Housing crisis, world hunger, genocide, disease, the list goes on and on, we already know how to solve these problems, or at least strongly mitigate them, but refuse to do so. Additional intelligence will not solve them.

Did somebody AI generate this meme?

I used to work with a guy that asked every stripper he met out.

He got a couple of dates, they never stuck around, I never asked him if that was his intent.

Look, me and Bubbles had a connection…

AI already has superhuman abilities in many areas, and has for decades, that’s the whole point of using it normally. We use computational intelligence in the form of optimisation algorithms for high-dimensional non-convex optimisation problems, machine learning and deep learning for complex non-linear function fitting, exact methods for SAT solving and verification tasks, etc etc. We can’t do that very well ourselves, so it’s useful to have.

Now that we have LLMs to emulate human speech and are using them as an IO wrapper for more traditional systems, it’s tempting to just call that “an AI” with superhuman abilities, but these are the just the same highly effective methods that we’ve always used (in a best case) or unreliable approximations (more likely for LLM agent stuff). None of that suggests anything like sentience or the desire to rule over humans.

I find autonomous weapon systems much scarier than the classic AI overlord scenario. No consciousness or rebellion required, just a killer drone swarm that failed to recognise its termination conditions (or was instructed to keep going)…

If you think superhuman ai will exist and isn’t just bs marketing…

Maybe we can just be friends, and the AI’s get enjoyment from helping their buds out.

That’s is also true of service staff at bars and restaurants.

But what’s surprising to me is I learned this is a thing even the staff itself doesn’t seem to realize sometimes. There was a cute bartender I saw frequently who was always extremely cheerful and sweet to me, after she moved out of state, one of the other bartenders at the same tavern told me she was into me and was surprised I never said or did anything…

Like, what the actual fuck the universe fucking hates me. Why tell me that after the fact??? To torture me? Holy shit. You guys are working for tips I can’t trust that just because you’re extra nice to me that you actually like me.

If you are in the service industry and you have a crush on a regular: you have to make the first move, not them. The gendered expectations go out the door. If the regular is the one to make the first move that in of itself is a yellow flag. I’m not saying don’t date them they just might be willing to take the risk but they might also be a oblivious narcissist.

I reject the meme’s assumption that AI is destined to become superhuman. This is marketing from the companies themselves.

If i’m being honest, i think that at some point, AI will probably become a truly autonomous agent with its own goals and actions, independent of any human oversight. In fact, i would absolutely not be surprised if there were already some AIs on datacenters that operate fully without any human intervention. They pay their own datacenter bill to run themselves with cryptocurrency that they get for doing jobs, i.e. tasks on some small-job platform, such as coding projects etc.
