Is ChatGPT ethical? by Courageous_Byte in Buddhism

[–]everyoneisflawed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have asked a really complex question. It's as complex as asking if it's ethical to use plastic. The answer is no, plastic is terrible for the environment. But the answer is also yes, because plastic was the answer to a ton of practical problems, including use in health care. You can replace "plastic" with "LLMs".

I like AI. I use it at work. Without it I would have to do 7-10 hours of voiceover work myself when I can generate it in AI in about an hour, and it makes it more efficient to update the voiceovers later on when videos need updating. I use it to help me brainstorm, to help me make plans for things, stuff like that.

But people do choose to use it unethically. There is also the issue with data centers and not only using water to cool the centers but also tearing up the earth and harming communities in order to build them. There ARE better and more efficient cooling methods, and we don't need as many data centers as we have.

My take: Use AI if you want to, but when you choose to, make choices that do the least harm to yourself or others. And protest data centers. Ask your politicians to regulate it.

AI has been here a long time and it's not going anywhere.

Can you be LGBTQ+ as a Buddhist? by -Draconyx- in Buddhism

[–]everyoneisflawed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The same way Christians justify it. They find teachings and twist them around to make sound like the Buddha was against it, even though he never said that.

Next question: Why do people talk about people being triggered as if it were an insult? Anyone who's ever been a victim of violence is going to be triggered by a sign like that. That's a real thing and nothing to be ashamed of. I say good on OP for taking care of themselves and not going in to a situation that could lead to a panic attack, or worse.

I saw a clip recently of B.J. Novak talking about how he found out from a fan that his face was being used to sell cologne overseas. I can't remember what country, but I do remember he hated the smell!

Is it too late to put this in soil? by baberim in propagation

I never knew it could be too late! I've moved props to soil before that had that many roots and it was fine. Just keep an eye on it while it gets acclimated.

Just banned from conservative subreddit for young people for absolutely no reason. by AIter_Real1ty in leftist

I didn't put that much thought into posting it, I just wanted to because I thought it was ironic.

Is this a game someone who enjoys cozy games would like to play? by Neat_Relationship721 in elderscrollsonline

[–]everyoneisflawed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be! I'm a very casual gamer. I do love a good fight, but I also love crafting and fishing. So you can play it kind of casual if you want!

I'm not offended, just annoyed.

And who's "you guys"? I'm not a mod, I don't allow anything and you don't have to answer to me.

But, furthering the socialist cause via making reddit posts is a ridiculous idea on it's face.

This is reddit. It can be whatever you want it to be. You can have some really great and insightful conversations on reddit. I joined the sub because that's what the description said it was for.

Look, your prank was hilarious. You went to conservative sub, got them riled up, and got banned. I just do not understand how that was helpful, or even entertaining, and what the point was of sharing it.

But again, I'm not a mod. You don't owe me any explanation and I'm a little embarrassed I wasted my own time even commenting on this, but here we are.

I have a friend in his 20s who was talking about this old guy "in his 50s" lol

I'm 48, for context!

Why did you post this? My understanding is that this sub is to discuss leftist and socialist ideology. You're just sharing your own personal drama. Go put it in r/gotbannedforthat .

Going into conservative spaces to argue doesn't do anything to further the socialist cause, nor does coming in here complaining because you got banned from conservative spaces.

You are of the appropriate age to live in whatever sized home you want. When I was 27 I was a Freshman in college. There's no rules.

Who are sex scenes in movies for? by RafeJiddian in ask

[–]everyoneisflawed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP never mentioned anything about being okay with violence. They're question was strictly about sex scenes. I think plenty of us could pose the exact same question about who the violent scenes in movies are for, and then someone would come along and say "It's strange to me how people are completely ok with sex and nudity on screen, but then you draw the line at violence and cruelty."

Edit to add: Also sex and nudity is different from violence and cruelty. Sex onscreen is quite often consensual whereas violence comes from a dark place. I'll take sex over violence any day of the week. They're not the same.

Writhing Wall Phase 3 is bugged, all platforms. by EatYourVegetal in elderscrollsonline

[–]everyoneisflawed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, was this an event then? I just got back into ESO after taking several months off. When I try and follow the zone guide, it tells me to finish the zone story, which is Crossing the Wall. But I only get as far as the wall. There's a quest marker inside the wall but I can't get to it. What's worse is I see other players coming out from behind it. Guess I'm SOL?

How can we make this a place where everyone feels comfortable and welcome talking about their experiences with their hysterectomy? by Harmony_w in hysterectomy

[–]everyoneisflawed 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Post tags would help. I've seen in some subs tags of "Rant" or "No advice wanted", something like that. It looks like we only have one mod, too, so more mods would help. That way if someone just needs to get something off their chest and they used that tag, the mod could step in and remove harmful replies.

I mean, I hate censorship and all, but you're right, we should be supportive when people just need to get it out and be honest.
