    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    By the way. A funny workaround when chatGPT refuses to write something for you because of its political filters. You can just ask it to write the same thing, but as a monologue in a work of fiction. Its like ok no problem. for example it happily wrote this for me

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    IMO the widespread (near-universal) application of this is the next level. A flawed analogy - consider how much it changed everything when computers and cameras became universally present in everyones pockets at all times. No real next level in technology was achieved. It was the same stuff...

    Since I only started investing in 2022, I hadnt gotten to see the euphoria stage before. its interesting. to be clear, I'm not talking about my portfolio, but commenting by investors around the internet.

    The Last of Us

    I mean, aside from showing disgusting shit they didnt need to show, this was the only bad part about it. Linking food and music to being a fag. "If you know how to cook or play music you're probably a fag too!" This is how actual grooming works. They link homosexuality to perfectly normal...

    Reading you guys discussion makes it clear that whats really bugging me about the end I guess is Adams missing story. he's driving everything but we don't get to see or even hear how he ends up that way. Also think I must have missed a lot in S1 when I was still spoiler free just trying to...

    Yeah, "Adam wanted annihilation". This is what they never explained. I mean, not even a little. Along with how his face got fucked up. I wonder if I slept through an episode or something.

    This show was great but the ending left the main characters' motivations completely inexplicable. Everyone said the ending was so good. So many unanswered questions. They answered the big picture questions but left so many details unfinished. A 4th season would be great.

    yeah, its not that I'm worried they'll see tits. Its the context. modern mainstream porn is a horror show without even looking for anything weird. I mean, thats what I've heard from friends and stuff.

    I'm just trying to figure out ; is he doing this for the same reason he posts the dog stuff (humiliation fetish) Or does he actually think this stuff looks edible? I guess I'm going with humiliation fetish, nobodys taste is that bad

    Never played the game so I dont have the issues with source accuracy. Good episode though. The gay dudes were written and acted as relatable, normal human beings. I literally had no idea there was anything gay going on until he kissed the guy. I have absolutely zero gaydar apparently; my wife...

    Can confirm. Two of those are a solid meal for under $5. The been rice and cheese is also available. But fucking rice isnt people food so fuck that. Still better and tastier than any fast food burger available for under $5.

    Used this tonight for the first time in an actual work context.

Looking them up in specific databases has its...

    Saw these on my recent trip. I was tempted to experiment with them until I saw they're served with some "spicy ranch sauce" or some similar kind of fucking absolute horse shit.

    If you don't think The Lord of The Flies contains some valuable truths about the human experience you should read it again. As far as essays, they were never intended to have the students come up with some novel new insight, the goal was always to see if you could string sentences together...

    There is a pretty easy solution to all this bullshit in terms of student writing.

Welcome back to the handwritten essay question written during the test period, in the...

    I dunno, it sounds a lot like comments I've read throughout this thread. That tone of "its so complex, how silly of you to think you could understand it like me". I presume forum threads were in its training dataset. I wonder if FoH threads were excluded because of the login features. This...

    Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)

    Ya know, thats a contrast I hadnt made before. The Deep, you watch his story and you end up feeling bad for him. And not even really disgusted by his octopus sexcapades. Somehow he makes the whole thing not charming or endearing but funny at least ... in some way, he's a sympathetic character...

    If Hollywood actually wanted to do something kind for black actresses they would cast them in roles written for black women. This little girl, who did a great job in the role, has been set up by Hollywood to be a punching bag so they can call people racists and virtue signal in the process...

    All double burgers would be better as single burgers. Fight me, rage against it, but at the end of the day you know I'm right. A QP deluxe with bacon, thats the burger if you have to eat McDonalds burgers for some reason, presumably because there isnt a Carls Jr nearby.

    and thats how we'll recognize real human text - machine text will be uniformly high quality. For a time thats how the few remaining humans will recognize each other in the AI text dystopia. until the machines learn how to shitpost, then God help us all.

    I wonder what the real AI is like if the one they put out for the public to play with is this good. And I wonder what fraction of text I've read in the past couple years was AI generated. Soon it will approach 100%, since human communication on the web seems to have devolved to a...
