  • The less you know how LLMs work, the more impressed you are by them. The clever use of the term AI seems like the culprit to me since it will most likely evoke subconscious associations with the AI we have seen portraid in entertainment.

    LLMs can be useful tools, when applied in restricted contexts and in the hands of specialists. This attempt to make it permeate every aspect of our lives is, in my honest opinion, insane





  • You’d be surprised with what parents let their kids do. My little anecdotal sample size contains mostly highly educated people but most of them don’t place any restrictions on screen time of their kids. They claim they talked to their kids and they have assured them they don’t look at anything they are not supposed to but that’s just not what happens in reality.

    What really happens is that the kids with no restrictions will engage with all the predatory bullshit on these platforms, nonstop. I can see this with my own eyes and my kid brings their friends over.

    Communication is key but unfortunately the business model of these platforms is based on addiction and children are not equiped to deal with it and parental controls are an essential component.




  • but it’s weirdly also pushed hard by hollywood & american television - anyone else noticed that?

    Yes! A lot of american humor is based on tearing someone down. I cringe thinking back into my childhood when I participated in this type of behavior but thankfully i’ve stopped a long time ago. Still saddens me that a lot o people just don’t mature out of it and keep behaving like this.

    Also fuck negging and all the garbage that comes out of the manosphere. Bunch of insecure man babies
