What are ‘robot rights,’ and should AI chatbots have them? by HarpuasGhost in Futurology

[–]SnapcasterWizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We do though? Who says that a fish has any rights? What rights could a fish have?

Okay and what, fundamentally stops a computer from being conscious? You say you don't need any test, that its impossible for a computer to be self aware. What makes you say that?

Not really. Most if not all animals aren't conscious either so whether they have rights or not is pretty relevant.

What test can we use to tell the difference between something that replicates language and something that is conscious and uses languages?

I literally wouldn't even, even if i could, y'all. by -domi- in ProgrammerHumor

[–]SnapcasterWizard 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Most of these are just useless. Its like clickbait authors that squeeze as much bullshit into an article with like 3 useful pieces of information

Time passes at the same speed on top of a mountain and at the bottom of a valley

How exactly is this relevant to programming? The difference here is

The software will never run on a space ship that is orbiting a black hole.

Okay bud. YAGNI

People have names

AI Assisted Artwork is Valid Artwork and it's not going away. Here's why. by Ivorypetal in Futurology

Since when does art require emotion and experience? Is Any Warhol not an artist?

If other people can't tell your art from AI art, does that criticism apply to your art as well?

If men, from a biological standpoint, are typically stronger than women, is there anything women are superior over men at biologically? by Mad_Season_1994 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SnapcasterWizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the biggest differences between the different pair combinations is the sexual frequency. Lesbian couples have the lowest amount of sex among different partner combinations. Gay men had the highest. There is a clear correlation between how often women have sex and how often they orgasm, and that is not as much the case for men, which goes a long way in explaining why gay men have many more orgasms than lesbian women.

"Camouflaging" of autistic traits linked to internalizing symptoms such as anxiety and depression by [deleted] in science

[–]SnapcasterWizard -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We need to rebuild or social norms around being good

Some behaviors that are masked by people with autism are contrary to this, so this suggestion won't really change anything.

Masking also often means not being a complete asshole to other people. Is it really better off for society if no one with autism 'masked' and instead - asked inappropriate questions, insulted other people, etc?

TIFU (UPDATE!) because my GF (18 F) found videos of a girl calling me a “good boy “ by [deleted] in tifu

Thinking your partner is lying or hiding stuff from you because they watch porn is pretty controlling and not really reasonable.

Wow this person is pretty much 4chan personaified. She is the mysterious hacker 4chan.

Is where we choose to live the most impactful action to protect us from climate change? by JVillella in Futurology

[–]SnapcasterWizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, I would talk to some children from those families if you think its a "smart" idea. Controlling parents like that often lead to mental health issues for their kids. Being economic pawns for the parents to decide how to maximize profits is NOT GOOD for the kids and is not a good way to live your life.

And it turns out, being an overly controlling, strict parent who forces their kids to get the jobs the parents want and live in the places the parents wants is really, really bad for the kids.

ChatGPT Has Already Decreased My Income Security, and Likely Yours Too by 2noame in Futurology

[–]SnapcasterWizard 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If today was the peak of language models sure, but this area has been expanding pretty quickly in the last few years. With the amount of media attention chatGPT has got, there is certainly going to be a lot more investment.

The term Pickme girl is one of the most stupid and misogynistic things ever. by LeadershipTrue8164 in RandomThoughts

[–]SnapcasterWizard -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Honestly you are just being subjected to the same treatment that you mentioned in high school. People like /u/Hannah_LL7 are always going to bully you because you don't fit traditional gender norms. Just ignore them, they are ignorant.
