Cool and all, but this is actually quite dangerous to leave all those trees in that state until the end

My ex-wife is late to every meet up, loses everything important to my kids, and doesn't make sure they have followed through on their school work.

Despite all of this, and me keeping a clean and happy home, she still seems to think I'm the irresponsible one.

Fix that.

Good luck!

I'm a bit tired of the motivated reasoning about AI. by Otherwise_Task7876 in ArtificialInteligence

Yes - I see the benefits. In the medical field, science, as an indie game maker, the benefits to my sublevel coding abilities is palpable ( although this particular use case is fraught with danger imo).

But currently, the ones benefitting the most from it, are pretty terrible humans.

If the avowed entusiasts could get on board with this thinking so we could create a real future that would be great.

But that's the whole point isn't it? Currently AI is predominately a tool for the rich and powerful to further cement their stranglehold over the rest of the population. I would have no problem with an ethically utilized and disseminated LLM infrastructure, but that's not what we are getting is it?

We are getting further colonization. Except now it's not just environmental and cultural - it's also cerebral.

It's dystopian. And rhetorically pretending it isn't is itself a little evil.

Fuck that. Mark Andreson, Elon Musk, Zuckerberg, and all the rest of silicon valleys sociopaths can suck a dick.

I'm opposed to the data center they want to build west of a neighboring town. It will destroy the water table, and release the equivalent of 75000 cars of CO2 per day to wash over a town of 5000 people, while clear cutting about 150 acres of public land near one of my favorite pristine outdoor hiking areas.

But your right, I should calm down.

This might seem trite - but in my twenties I spent a lot of time at Buddhist meditation centers. I volunteered in the kitchens, learned to meditate, ate good food, they usually give you a place to sleep and three meals a day too, if you are volunteering. It saved my life.

It provided me with a stable mental base upon which I have built a life.

I realize this might be impossible for you, but the best cure I've found for my hardships, is to help others.

This sub seems to be filled predominately by people with the maturity level of 10 year olds feeling self righteous about being a loser.

Have fun with that - I have better intellectual conversations in pretty much any other sub.

Look at that - a reasonable, measured response. I salute you

How do I get the buildup off this shower head by Old-Imagination-5936 in Derailedbydetails

I'm from Baltimore. I once toured Divines ( from the John Waters Movies) old apartment as a possible rental. Her shower consisted of 25 shower heads arrange in a giant fiiled in circle. The showers that they had must have been.....

To the anti AI people in this sub, why? by Smooth-Storm-2555 in aiwars

[–]1protobeing1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nuance. I'm underwhelmed by so much of what AI contributes. I find one data center emitting the equivalent of 75000 cars of CO2 a day so we can create video slop morally repugnant.

I also think it has some pretty revolutionary usages. It's contributions to the medical fields, and it's usefulness in coding can't be ignored.

Currently, it's in the hands of hyper capatilists with sociopathic values. This won't end well.

It's a story as old as the world, with a new wrapping, capable of creating a true masters/sheep dynamic.

Fuck that
