Europe too.

Maybe this is a hot take but I’m not really upset that this is AI. I think this is one of the use cases for AI, making a dumb meme. I’m totally open to someone ruining this for me and telling me why it’s bad that it’s AI though.

What the actual fuck? Literally.

Something I’ll never understand about twitter. Maybe it was more readable before the nazi took it over?

In academia you are trained to not accept any claim without adequate evidence. Look at left wing claims vs. right wing ones and show me one that has better evidence on the right.

Yeah and Kierkegaard already solved this decades before him, in exactly the way you describe (although he didn’t personally think it was possible).

Forget majors, get a PhD. You’ll be even less hireable because companies won’t want to pay you more.

There is a precedent and it’s called the VA. The military is the largest socialist organization in the US.

I mean there’s a random meme and otherwise it’s people arguing about propaganda. I’m waiting for the “Holodomor was based” people to show up.

Your comment inspired me to actually listen to it and there’s a lot more evidence for LLM-mindbrain convergence than I thought. Still seems like we invented something too complex to characterize directly so we’re interrogating it the way we do our own cognition… I wonder what kind of biases this introduces.

We have no idea how consciousness works, and also we have no idea how LLMs work. So they must be the same!

Can someone point me at one of these “tankies”? I only ever see strawman posts about how stupid they are.

People love to argue about whether kids count as work and whether they’re voluntary but workers get old and retire. They need to be replaced. In our society we don’t subsidize this process, even though social reproduction is part of the overall capitalist mode of production. They’ve convinced you to provide a replacement labor force for them and they are not paying you for your labor. And then they even get you to feel bad about it.

These things have a very specific use and it’s performing (error prone) calculations, just like all conputer programs. The only advantage is they can look up the input data and figure out what equations to use. I wish people didn’t anthropomorphize them.

And who said they were ramping up? I don’t get what you’re arguing here or why. Yes, coal plants are much easier to build than nuclear.

It is in developing economies. India and China are still building coal plants in addition to renewables.

Realistically though you should compare the waste it produces to the waste from coal plants, which produce about half a billion tons of fly ash per year. I’d argue this is order of magnitude more harmful than nuclear waste. New (read: worked out in the 1960s and then forgotten) nuclear tech also uses the waste to produce more energy. The waste also doesn’t fly into the air like coal waste.

It seems to me like they know exactly what they’re doing and they don’t give a fuck about what happens to us.

Nope despite your hostility I’m really only here because I’m trying to find answers. So am I correct that your hypothesis is that Russia will stop fighting if we just continue with aid, sanctions, and air war? If so, I’m asking how long this will take because of the casualty rate that everyone here seems to ignore.

Yes they get a security guarantee this time, obviously. It’s like arguing with an LLM
