I just don’t believe what he’s writing, his whole career is built on lies and the other prison tweets seem like bullshit as well.

It, uh, like, can reserve a table for you in some restaurant? Maybe?

You know what they say, all busses go to Rhome

So-called AI partly relies on random outcomes, so no, it might not do what you tell it to do. Which is part of why it sucks so much.

Furry here, we do that stuff. It’s pretty good, can recommend.

Also men used to do that a lot more, before the world wars.

Oh, he’s the one running Linkedin, now it makes sense why that site, of all places, has anti-AI features now. I hope the shareholders will have mercy with his soul.

Intensively obsessive fans with no respect for boundaries have existed for a long time, before the Internet. Ask the Beatles or the cast of the original Star Trek series. This is not a new phenomenon, this one just comes with a coat of extra slop.

Sitzen zwei Kamele im Keller und stricken Benzin. Kommt ein Schraubenzieher, läuft ein mal den Türrahmen hoch und wieder herunter und verschwindet wieder. Fragt das eine Kamel: “Du, hast du dat geseh’n?” Sagt das andere Kamel: “Jau, der is öfter hier.”

That’s not going to make anything better though. You’ll just go down a path of addiction and self-destruction. Plus it’s expensive.

No no, these things are getting better in my opinion, in Germany/EU at least!

It’s starting to show its cracks (see Facebook), I’ll count that as getting better.

Older Millennial here, they are right, too bad people my age didn’t get the memo. Never understood, even back in school, why getting plastered is celebrated.

In no particular order, from where I am:

• Linux/FOSS
• Renewable energy
• Crime rates
• Consumer protection laws
• Furry cons
• Vegan & vegetarian products
• The AI bubble (slowly)
• Left-wing parties

I don’t expect it, but I’m also not going to be complicit in them getting worse. Lethargy and cynicism means you’ve already lost, which is what the assholes at the top want.

I aim to please 🐱

I thought Interstellar was about as good as 2001.

I so am not, they are both horrible.

Yeah, before supermarkets that’s how things worked. I don’t think it was better. The gross profiteering is its own issue. I’d much rather see a crackdown on shopping apps that come with small “discounts” for invasive tracking.

Why bother talking to guys like Sam? Why print what they say?

Because very dumb people with lots of money still believe his lies.

He’s running out of superlatives though, can’t go much beyond declaring that the singularity is happening right now. Which I means the investors will see that huge ROI aaaany second now.

I don’t think your premise that it is going to grow more in terms of impact size is valid. It’s already eaten the US stockmarkets (and a number of others).

Stock market schmock market, this bubble is also doing damage to society and the environment and at least the part that comes from the lies and lobbying from “OpenAI” and consorts would be stopped by it popping.
