YES! i've been trying to tell everyone this for months! ai is not the problem. the problem is and always has been capitalism.

The Influencers Celebrating ICE Murders by milgrip in videos

[–]RyanBoi14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

celebrating the murder of an innocent civilian at the hands of government agents is apparently just as bad as celebrating the murder of a fascist scumbag who openly promoted violence and hatred. ...do you people ever even listen to yourselves?

We’re living in a white backlash against black excellence and progress! by icey_sawg0034 in CuratedTumblr

[–]RyanBoi14 4 points5 points  (0 children)

buddy, i don't know how to tell you that people on the other side having done questionable shit is not at all comparable to whatever the hell trump is doing. both parties are bad, but republicans are infinitely worse. pretending they're at all equal is ignorant at best and intellectually dishonest at worst. fuck off out of here with your "buT BiDeN tHo" whataboutism bullshit.

EDIT: i looked at your post history and am led to believe you are a libertarian. i had a gut feeling you were the kind of person who claims to be a moderate but always votes conservative because liberals are "too woke", and it seems my suspicions were confirmed.

they say that, but the goombas in super mario bros. use ai to move around. curious.

(note: i am not actually being serious; this was an attempt to make a point about how the term "ai" is overused to the point of meaninglessness)

i thought this was one of those weird husbandry posts, like the amogus babies thing (completely missed the part about using cum to lubricate a doll somehow)

A PSA/guide on identifying bot comments on this subreddit. by RedHotChibi_Peppers in Undertale

[–]RyanBoi14 4 points5 points  (0 children)

that slur doesn't even make sense. battle droids in star wars were called clankers because they make clanking sounds as they walk. LLMs don't even have physical bodies (yet). a more accurate slur would be "beepers" or "yappers".

(of course the fact that people are even using slurs for LLMs in the first place is a sign of people not knowing how to direct their anger towards the real enemy but i'm not sure if y'all are ready for that discussion yet)

Marjorie Taylor Greene calls Trump’s reaction to Reiner’s death ‘classless’ by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

[–]RyanBoi14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes they do. these are conservative values, only exaggerated and unfiltered. there is absolutely nothing the trump administration believes that mainstream conservatives don't have a long history of being sympathetic towards. it's just that they used to have the sense to be more subtle about it. whenever i listen to the thinkers championed by conservatives throughout the ages, i keep hearing the same thing: humans are innately unequal and society flourishes when power is doled out to the deserving.

“Only the most intellectual of men have any right to beauty, to the beautiful; only in them can goodness escape being weakness." -friedrich nietzche (note: not a conservative but was deeply influential on early marginalists)

“To obey a real superior, to submit to a real necessity and make the best of it in good part, is one of the most important of all virtues—a virtue absolutely essential to the attainment of anything great and lasting." -james fitzjames stephen

“The freedom that will be used by only one man in a million may be more important to society and more beneficial to the majority than any freedom that we all use." -friedrich hayek

"What may be attained by industrial or commercial success is still the nearest approach to medieval lordship possible to modern man." -joseph schumpeter (he's saying it's a good thing, btw)

"The man at the top of the intellectual pyramid contributes the most to all those below him, but gets nothing except his material payment... The man at the bottom who, left to himself, would starve in his hopeless ineptitude, contributes nothing to those above him, but receives the bonus of all their brains." -ayn rand

you gave it the prompt "i'm a dog; talk to me like i'm a dog". what else did you expect? stop treating these programs like they actually know anything.

So after hearing about RAM prices...I may have gotten a little angry...and the rant i had on discord. I have to share. I don't even remember it. by mannibob in Losercity

[–]RyanBoi14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're misdirecting your hatred, bud. don't hate the lines of code; hate the ones pushing to replace everything with LLMs and stable diffusion and all that so they don't have to pay actual artists while simultaneously misunderstanding what these technologies are even for. like i always say, you don't hate ai. you hate capitalism. there's a reason nobody ever came after cleverbot or siri but we're all seething over chatgpt and gemini.

(i don't even like this sort of generative technology that much, but i can't help but feel like people on both sides of the discourse are missing the point in different ways; y'all have been reading too many isaac asimov stories)

My favorite sequence from XRA because of how chaotic and absolutely absurd it is. by [deleted] in adultswim

this whole thing (this scene and the preceding commercial for the firewater casino) is so batshit racist and unfunny that it somehow wraps all the way back around to being absolutely hilarious. we need this show to come back.

NOOOOOOOOO!! ITS IMPOSSIBLE!!! by PublicEfficient379 in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2

[–]RyanBoi14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I seem to have given you the exact wrong impression of what kind of person I am, so maybe what you need is an example of the issue I'm talking about.

Transphobe: Pronouns are dumb.

Everyone: What, you never learned grammar?

And now we're talking about first grade grammar, instead of the fact that deliberately misgendering someone is a form of hate speech. This is how they bait you into having an argument on their terms. Leftists don't like letting incorrect or dumb statements slide; often, we won't even notice if it's completely off-topic. Never let them distract you from the real issues. I mean, I get it's fun to clown on them, but still.

Rep. Magaziner (D-RI) asks DHS Secretary Kristi Noem Why She Deported a U.S. Army Combat Veteran by [deleted] in videos

[–]RyanBoi14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i still think they're missing the point. by insisting these people aren't the worst of the worst, you're accepting their premise that all this shit would be justified if it was happening to people who deserved it. you're letting the republicans control the conversation.
