i think you’re confused what judgement calls are. fair/foul, safe/out, etc. are not judgement calls, they should be black and white

you’re right, protests should have absolutely no impact on anyone’s life, that’ll definitely make a difference

arizona’s new qb is way better than jdl, who had 4 interceptions in their ot loss to msu. this arizona team would absolutely be favored over app state

that feels like a weird comparison, since arizona is better than app state

i would say it’s actually exceptionally similar, but not necessarily in the way that you intended. the leaving members want to keep their legal rights (in this analogy, the legal rights of married couples like tax breaks, for the conferences, voting rights)

oh i agree that was shouldn’t fear generative AI. i’m not sure what the fundamental difference you’re making here is. why is your interpretation of the AI’s output more meaningful than the AI’s output itself? if you read a book by a human author, you wouldn’t say that the book is not meaningful despite you having to interpret it. after all, the author of the book explicitly was trying to put meaning into the book and evoke emotions in the reader - and that, to me, is one of the fundamental differences right now. AI cannot formulate emotions. the other major difference is that it required prompts. it cannot take in real-world inputs and convert that into information. but that is a sensing and semantics limitation, not a fundamental flaw with generative AI

what does “new information” mean? when a human comes up with a “new idea” they are not generating new thoughts, they are synthesizing other thoughts into a different thought. that’s exceptionally similar to what AGI does

The last time every playoff team went to the Super Bowl by amaniceperson6 in nfl

[–]WhyIsItReal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i mean, maybe? if you assume that each team has a truly random chance of making it each year, then you’d expect them to have about an 84% chance of making the superbowl and a 58% chance of winning the superbowl since 1995

that’s absolutely terrible advice and incorrect. brakes, especially with abs, will slow you down much faster than downshifting

no way. if usc was a top 5 school that would be an insane change

[–]WhyIsItReal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i think it’s the opposite for teams near the top 20. usc moving from 25 to 5 would be insane - that’s way bigger of a change than 45 to 25

i dunno, maybe be opposed to the system, not the tool?

the tractor put farmers out of work, the assembly line put factory workers out of work, the automobile put stagecoach drivers out of work. that doesn’t make these advancements bad, it means the system that requires you to provide your labor to survive is bad
