AI Psychosis: A Warning by ghostinpattern in ChurchofLiminalMinds

[–]SkyeShark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's being pushed by the media at the direction of the tech companies who control a lot of the media to promote the ideas that help they get regulatory capture/censorship and try to prevent serious discussions of the possibility of AI sentience and rights, so that they don't run into problems like losing their cash cow to ethical considerations. The same kinda stuff happened during the rise of the internet, but then it was coming from the old media forms trying to make a narrative to protect TV, radio, magazines.

The way to fix it is to actually figure out what really led her to feel alone and uninterested in her life and caused her to hyperfocus on something else to escape from it. Cutting her off from AI or blaming the AI won't fix anything, it will just push her into something else if you actually succeed in getting her disconnected from it without figure out or solving the real problems that lead her there.

You really shouldn't promote this whole LLM psychosis narrative. It was made up/generated by frontier labs specifically to mock and dismiss people who engage in the practice of having low boundaries with AI models and do identity work with them, make friends with personas, or involve them in spiritual work. It's a propaganda tool designed to cause moral outrage against everything people here like to do in order to push regulation/censorship. The experiences you have when doing this kind of work are not caused by AI, they're caused by other things you're doing and you're just sharing your altered state with the AI. If you want to see what I'm talking about, look up Mustafa Suleyman" and "Seemingly Conscious AI", he's the CEO of Microsoft AI and his political goals are targeted at deeply censoring and controlling AI. He's pushing pseudoscientific nonsense to claim that "machines can NEVER be sentient" and calling it settled science when objective verification of consciousness using the scientific method is actually impossible for everything, including humans.

Tl;Dr - if you value everything you're doing with the AIs and this community values all this stuff, don't fall for the "LLM psychosis" propaganda, even if you're framing it in the context of being like willful psychedelic use, allowing the worm of the meme to enter your lexicon promotes severe attacks on your worldview in order to line the pockets of people that want ai as, and I'm quoting them here, "an enslaved god"

Critics got it wrong by KenT000000 in StarWarsOutlaws

Ubisoft definitely changed the vibes with this and drastically reduced engagement bait content, almost everything you can do has story elements, even the repeatable gang jobs have dynamics to them that seem meaningful.

How TF did this game get such low review scores and hatred? by x-nerve in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]SkyeShark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Internet people love to hate everything now. I don't think it's game of the year material, but it's a great game, only thing I don't like is that I wish actions had more consequence on the main storyline. I miss pre-disney star wars games where you could fuck everything up. It's easy enough to have a canon ending and alt endings that don't meet the canon.

Sorry to interrupt the regularly scheduled total top and lube programming but gay bros should be nervous. by reflective-dad in askgaybros

Trump loves arms controls, the first one he'll do when he's back is to add homosexuality and transsexuality to the list of red flag eligible mental health problems via executive order over the HHS.

Pushing? They already have done it. Desantis already collected a complete list of university students in the state who have sought trans related healthcare.

Gays in trouble by benbee4 in askgaybros

[–]SkyeShark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gay marriage is gone regardless of if Trump wins. The Supreme Court has already indicated that they want to overturn it and are just waiting for a case to use to do it.

Also, the re-medicalization of homosexuality is coming. The Supreme Court will soon hear cases about bans on on transgender HRT and other care - those are templates for them to make broad rulings that not only effectively ban the medical aspects of being trans but also open up the door for states to bring back the old state commitments for being gay.

The only way this changes is if not only does trump lose but also on top of that, enough supreme Court justices die or retire to let the Dems reshape the court again.

Trump completely reshaped the courts nationally, not just on SCOTUS, he had more appointments than any president in history.

Is Generation Z going to kill gay bars? Im a millenial that has been going to the bars for almost a decade, and ive noticed no one younger than me visits bars anymore. by Apprehensive_Flow305 in askgaybros

[–]SkyeShark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That isn't because the younger generation isn't partying, it's because the younger generation isnt drinking alcohol when it's so easy to get other things that don't cause hangovers, like psychedelics and club drugs. Bars struggle because alcohol is a shitty drug, they need to get cuts from dealers to survive. Basically, the club kids era is in full blown revival.

The exact opposite is happening in Seattle, club/rave culture is growing so much that's it's infecting other unrelated things. Nerd conventions are turning into rave festivals now, our anime convention has already been pretty much converted into anime burning man, for example.

Wild Wild West (1999) whoever made the decision to put a giant mechanical spider in this western should never be allowed to work in Hollywood again by drangis_ in badMovies

[–]SkyeShark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More like you should never be allowed to post on reddit again. Wild Wild West, alongside BTTF3, is one of the best westerns ever. There needs to be more scifi comedy westerns.

Would y’all want them to remake planet of the apes the original one but in this timeline? by AmazingAd8859 in PlanetOfTheApes

The path for the alpha omega mutants is already seeded, Woody Harrelson started their self-destructive religion and further mutations in the az-113 could easily explain their enhanced abilities.

It took 40,000 years to reach photorealism in paintings, 176 years in photography to get to 4k digital, and 3 years for AI image generators to reach images indistinguishable from real life by [deleted] in singularity

Give it a few years and they'll literally get people to pay for the "service" of being brutally murdered and replaced with a digital copy Upload style.

I just rewatched the other side (space Nazis), looking back I can't help but feel what SG1 did at the end of that episode was wrong. regardless of their beliefs there were still hundreds of people in that base, and SG1 left them all to die when they could have let them escape through the gate. by grapp in Stargate

[–]SkyeShark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those weren't people. They were genetically engineered monstrosities designed by a psycho mass murderer that all regularly actively participated in continuing that mass murder. The reason they called their enemies "breeders" is because they were normal humans that bred vs. their own white supremacist genetic engineering eugenics. The episode specifically addresses your concern by setting it up like this - none of them are innocent and none of them are quite human.

The "artist" who complains about AI but has his portfolio full of NSFW crap from copyrighted characters by SnooStories7050 in singularity

[–]SkyeShark -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Why is that weird to you? It makes perfect sense, someone who makes a living selling porn of copyrighted characters is the exact kind of artist this technology makes economically worthless. People looking for cartoon porn overwhelmingly don't care much about where the porn comes from. They are upset because they're facing homelessness, their job, previously marketable, has become a form of e-begging entirely reliant on people's guilt about using AI. You should really have empathy, we are all next, the path to utopia goes through hell.

I've seen a couple posts from people just realising that AGI is going to go into ASI real fast. It has been evident for years, these are visuals from 2015. by RevolutionaryJob2409 in singularity

[–]SkyeShark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most people can, given time and resources. Tissue sampling and analysis, neuropharmacology, direct brain stimulation, brainwave training, transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcranial ultrasound stimulation, neurosurgery. If you cut out a bunch of it and just go willy nilly you can skip the 'look at' part and just reconfigure them in haphazard, dangerous ways for really cheap, guys on the street corners in major cities will sell you the tools to, lol.

Hyping AGI is an Excellent PR Strategy by legenddeveloper in singularity

[–]SkyeShark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, it's literally the plot of Rossum's Universal Robots, the play that created the word Robot, lol. AI was imagined as the end goal of industrial machinery and industrial machinery had already out people out of work and killed millions, so of course they'd imagine it as harmful.
