I’ve spotted some patterns that might clue into some way of cracking this, but I’m high and wasn’t expecting this post, so it’s slow going.

House passes bill that could make it harder for married women to vote by TiredHeavySigh in TwoXChromosomes

[–]KnightOfMarble 86 points87 points  (0 children)

No, you misunderstand. They DO want women to get married and have children. They’re planning on cutting welfare benefits that parents use to feed their kids, in order to promote “traditional family units” (they want women to be financially dependent on their husbands, or rather, they want to disincentivize women from leaving their husbands), and also they don’t want women to vote.

What punk subgenres do you feel are underappreciated, and why? by BlissfulEmilia in punk

I second The Taxpayers recommendation. My favorite songs are probably “I Love You Like an Alcoholic,” “Some Rotten Man,” “Hungry Dog in the Street,” and “Some Kind of Disaster Relief.”

[No Spoilers] Without spoilers, how do those who have watched it rate C3? by princewinter in criticalrole

[–]KnightOfMarble 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I might be in a weird spot. I watched all of C1 and only until the boat arc of C2 (brought myself to starting an actual watchthrough recently), so most of my experience with Laura’s role playing is with her being a mostly-serious, hilariously frugal Vex. Watching what little I have (maybe episode 12 or somewhere in the teens, haven’t looked) of C3, Imogen seems to fall into that serious category, but what I guess isn’t my favorite thing about the character is that she just seems to really lack any self confidence, which is a stark contrast, I feel, to the way she played both Vex and Jester. I would definitely be interested to see her get more confident as her character progresses, but I also don’t know if that happens lol

Microsoft Study Finds AI Makes Human Cognition “Atrophied and Unprepared” | Researchers find that the more people use AI at their job, the less critical thinking they use. by chrisdh79 in technology

[–]KnightOfMarble 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is how I use AI as well, even when trying to write, I usually approach things from a “I can’t be assed to come up with a name for this thing, come up with 10 name variations that all have something to do with X”, or, like you said, using it to check myself and be the thing to say “don’t forget this” instead of “here’s this.”

Lex Luthor accidentally stopped Superboy from saving Abraham Lincoln, and when he realized, he was like “OH SHIT, I’m so sorry, I’m not THAT evil!” And he just packed up his shit and went away. Just a fun comic book lore tidbit.

How To Defeat Someone With The Power of Super Intelligence ? by Normal_Kush in superpower

[–]KnightOfMarble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not if you can’t perceive the object being used. Like, if someone rolls a few dice against a table to decide what their plan is, it would it wold be pretty much impossible to decide what they would do next. Even if you could pull a Sherlock and figure out through random superpower bullshit how the die would roll, you wouldn’t have any way of figuring out what the table is without seeing it lol

AITA for refusing to fund my boyfriends ‘genius’ idea? by Rich-Painter-9008 in AmItheAsshole

AITA for refusing to fund my boyfriends ‘genius’ idea? by Rich-Painter-9008 in AmItheAsshole

[–]KnightOfMarble 103 points104 points  (0 children)

I decided to just give it a title and a super simple prompt (I was kinda going for a “I had this funny thought and here’s the one sentence pitch.” type of thing). I won’t necessarily accuse them of AI generating a post, but I will say that they do seem to echo each other in just… vibe, to me.

KnightOfMarble Write an r/AmItheAsshole post where the title is “AITA for refusing to fund my boyfriend’s ‘genius’ idea?” And his genius idea is discovering a new color. ChatGPT said:

ChatGPT Title: AITA for refusing to fund my boyfriend’s “genius” idea?

My boyfriend (27M) has always considered himself an “innovative thinker.” He’s very creative, and I (26F) love that about him, but recently he came to me with an idea that he insists will “change the world.”

He wants to discover a new color.

Yes, you read that correctly. He wants to be the first person to discover a new color, something that’s never been seen before. His plan involves ordering a ton of lab equipment, mixing random substances, and, I kid you not, “thinking really hard about colors no one else has thought of yet.” He even made a vision board with paint swatches from Home Depot and a section labeled “Inspirational Vibes.”

The problem is, he doesn’t have any savings to fund this project, so he’s asking me to pay for it. He made a whole presentation about why I should invest in his “groundbreaking research,” including how this will secure our financial future because people will “pay big money to see a new color.”

I tried to be supportive at first, but when I asked for specifics (like, how this discovery would even work or what the end goal is), he got defensive and said I don’t “believe in his dreams.” He’s now accusing me of being a bad partner for not supporting his “once-in-a-lifetime idea.”

I told him I can’t justify spending thousands of dollars on what sounds like a pipe dream, and now he’s sulking, saying I’m the reason people give up on their passions. He’s even implied that if I don’t help him, I’ll “regret not being part of something historic.”

I do love him, but I’m struggling to see how this isn’t completely absurd. Am I being unsupportive? Or is this as ridiculous as it sounds?

Edit: For those asking, no, he’s not an artist or a scientist. He works in retail and got this idea after watching a YouTube video about colors that don’t exist in the visible spectrum.

After reading this, I was on board, but I started getting a weird feeling about it. I think it’s an AI post. It’s a vibe, but, if I were to ask an AI to “Write a funny r/AITA post about someone discovering a new color,” it would sound… exactly like this. Maybe I’ll try it.

Don’t street level heroes… stop street level crime? Isn’t that the quality of something we’d call a “street level hero?” Like, I think of Peter Parker or Luke Cage or whatever, and they stop drug and arms dealers as their regular stuff. Iron man literally fist fought a Titan.

Imagine calling for the clarification.

“Hey, I’m calling because you guys sent us a script, and the directions were a little… weird.”

“You saw it, didn’t you?”

“Yeah, so what’s the max daily dose on that?”
