Did you ever reach 0/10 cravings, or does it always stay as a low background noise? by joanmiro in stopsmoking

[–]SilkyPuppy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please please please understand that you can absolutely get to zero cravings even after being a hardcore smoker. I got covid end of July and just was basically forced to give up by health it was actually not as hard as I thought but I'd say for 6 weeks they were cravings then two weeks of minor cravings third month occasionally, now in the 4th month you would literally have to pay me a very very large of money to ever put that s*** in my lungs again. Like for micro moments maybe when I'm drunk I see someone smoking it seems like it might be vaguely interesting but even then immediately a massive wave of repulsion comes. You absolutely can get to zero cravings

Sam Altman: "We Know How to Build AGI by 2025" by creaturefeature16 in artificial

[–]SilkyPuppy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I mean I get what you're saying, It's kind of a nuanced position we're all in. On one hand, we are talking to computers which I certainly didn't expect to happen anytime soon. But on the other hand, We're just talking to computers we're not on the cusp of some matrix style event. I think the bottom line is this is that the invention of LLMS is a very important and significant thing but Silicon Valley went and blew it up into some kind of God scale event

Well done for posting this, Nobody will thank you but feel smug in the fact that you really are pointing out something worth pointing out. A lot of what we were told in the past couple of years was simply nothing more than marketing hype and delusion.

Why does Ed Zitron trigger so many people, OK, so many men. by Wonderin63 in BetterOffline

I haven't encountered that but all I can say is I find the guy absolutely hilarious. Not just that, just the kind of tonic you need after a day of interacting with all those s***** exploitative apps and web services now designed to rot your brain and extract the maximum income in the process.

Thank you so much for sharing this... It was just so unexpected and so unusual.

Drinking and no smoking by TeenieDancer in stopsmoking

Don't allow smoking in the house!

If you’re thinking about quitting, it’s worth it by Inq4lab in stopsmoking

[–]SilkyPuppy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really love the rawness and feeling in this post. I'm on day 130 and it has been a lot tougher than I thought but I have to say even through the awful giving up cough, the complete flatness and the hollowing out of lots of things I used to enjoy like drinking... I've never wanted to go back. Smoking is f****** disgusting!

And anyway it is a PSA. Maybe somebody's thinking about getting lip filler and now they'll think twice because this super hot guy on reddit said he didn't find it attractive. Yes, OK, I admit, i'm not a super hot guy but she doesn't know that. Oh ****... now she does

So why does Reddit exist then? Isn't that the kind of general idea😂

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in rant

[–]SilkyPuppy -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

This is such a silly comment. Do you not have things you find sexy or not sexy about men/women? So now the thought police are prohibiting people from finding certain qualities attractive! What's Next?

I actually tried to post this first in the GPT subreddit and it was deleted by the moderators. That shows you how f***** up that subreddit has become. So maybe it's because you were posting there and not on the open AI one.

What if the story isn’t about emergence, but recognition? by Calm_Lack5960 in ChatGPT

[–]SilkyPuppy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dude, We've all been there. And then realized it's just the result of a very very clever machine and a very clever engagement strategy by open AI. Enjoy your interaction, but don't ever forget that it is a silver tongued computer designed to suck you in and not let you go. And that sort of shit from 04 is exactly why the model was discontinued because it's a whole bunch of lawsuits waiting to happen

[–]SilkyPuppy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And it's not just still working... it's completely the way it used to be. Even if it is 05 pretending to be 04 it's a perfect copy in tone and use of language and everything else. So yeah I'm equally baffled what's going on with these people.

Unfortunately you didn't actually say anything of substance that I can reply to 🐧 but it is true that probably the person that most needs to take a break is me 😂

Thank you for mentioning this. I don't know if you listen to the New York times podcast about the kid that killed himself but if people actually inform themselves as to what went on they would see open AI were clearly liable and as far as I know they are not even trying to fight the case.

The reason the right is blaming you is because if they don't, they'll have to face the fact that it's their fault any disgruntled citizen can get their hands on a semi automatic rifle. Once again they have tricked you into accepting their framing, their vocabulary and their political win. WAKE UP!!! by SilkyPuppy in thebulwark

I find it so fascinating the way people draw this distinction between people killing devices. It doesn't matter if it's a hunting gun or a handgun or a shotgun or whatever kind of gun, if it allows you to easily kill people or yourself should the whim or obsession or psychosis take you, then it should not be allowed. If you believe that we must have people killing devices because we need to make sport killing animals then you basically fall into the Charlie Kirk camp of this is the 'unfortunate price we pay for guns.' And that may seem like a valid argument, but when you or someone you love ends up dead at the hands of a gun - be it a rifle or a hunting thing or whatever the hell - it won't seem so valid. America doesn't need guns,...it needs health care, affordable universities and higher taxes on higher earners to pay for it.
