The original essay that this one is picking quotes from is a good read: https://www.wired.com/story/meet-the-sad-wives-of-ai/

Not wrong, but the original essay this post is picking quotes from was a good read: https://www.wired.com/story/meet-the-sad-wives-of-ai/

The Threadiverse feels a lot busier than 40k MAU but I suppose it’s possible we are all mostly the .01% of Reddit who wouldn’t (couldn’t) shut up.

“RTF(thousand-page-pdf)M”

“Enthusiasts”

Some good answers here but if you’re ever in doubt about what is isn’t canon- Memory-Alpha is your friend.

With you 100%

humans: let’s evolve to be really good at predicting. let’s just evolve the ability to OBSESS over anything but present in the moment

On one hand I think that Linux would benefit from KDE being better than windows and GNOME being better than MacOS and that we shouldn’t get distracted by new shiny toys like Cinnamon and Cosmic.

…and yet on the other hand… they are pretty cool…

I just want a realistic, down-to-earth show, that’s completely off-the-wall and swarming with magic robots.

Why didn’t Disney realize that the show beloved for having no internal logic or direction, nonsensical plots, and a hundred IRL years of lore that either matters deeply or not at all depending on the weather wouldn’t catch on with the masses?

Thrift stores often have old laptops for cheap

I’m always a little surprised when I see Lemmyers who use TikTok/Reels/Shorts etc. Even weirder to see them defensive about it!

What AI voice are you talking about? Just random social media? If it’s making you want to smash your phone I don’t think the problem is the voice…

To the surprise of no one we can conclude that the sub, and reddit generally, are full of bots spreading disinfo.

But how are you drawing that conclusion? I read the thread in depth and it makes a strong case. It would not surprise me at all to learn that it was true, but I haven’t been able to find where it was confirmed.

It was determined and made public

I haven’t been able to verify the bot/troll claim… when was it made public by Reddit?

Glad the subheader is “Imagine what happens if jobs actually start disappearing.”

There’s just still not a lot of evidence that LLMs could take a substantial number of jobs away, unless your job is spam, advertising or propaganda. Corporations are blaming AI but there just isn’t the evidence to support the idea that those fired workers are anything other than normal downsizing (that conveniently help fit the narrative and boost the stock price).

IF an AI gets invented that actually begins making humans unemployable, the economy as it exists wouldn’t be able to withstand it …who would pay for things if there are no jobs? Why provide goods and services for money if nobody can pay for it? Even being a billionare would be pointless because if everyone else’s economic value is zero they can’t be compelled to do anything with your worthless slop money.
