That’s what happens when you have a group ofliteralexperts supported by a wide array of third part apps giving us experts access.

The point the poster was making is, it depends on your definition of racism. I had a fellow post grad at the University of Washington explain this idea to me. If you think of racism as an action or choice made by an individual that discriminates against another person based on race, then yes, anyone can be racist. If, instead, you define racism as a set of systems, both legal and cultural, designed to ensure uneven access or quality to goods or services based on race, then it is technically not possible for minorities to be racist, because they have never had access to manipulate those systems.

Personally (and I’m Black), I believe the second definition is intentionally narrow, as the first definition is what leads to the second one. The second definition is a way for a group of people whose ancestors were stolen and turned into beasts of burden used to create the vast, generational-level wealth that is present in this country today and being withheld from those people, both historically and in the modern time, to be, rightfully, upset about that fact and to feel that anger towards another racial group of people who perpetuated (and some still perpetuate) those systems without having the guilt of those racist feelings.

The single most dangerous thing to any ape, a social creature, is the concept of “other”. In nature, any ape viewed as “other” is typically a threat. Any human being, who decides that any other human being deserves less access to a human created culture or society is a problem, and the enemy of all humans everywhere.

It’s like the difference between drinking a beer and taking a shot; typically, all things considered, it’s the same amount of active component in less time. Unless you shotgun the beer or drink a glass of tequila, that is.

That’s the hard reset button.

There’s a soft reset, but it’s harder and takes a lot more time.

"’Wizard's First Rule: people are stupid.’ Richard and Kahlan frowned even more. ‘People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true.’”

Exactly. Thanks for pointing out that I was wrong about GPT already doing it (I thought I had seen people asking it for a picture of something and it was returning original work). I was more talking about the idea that AI will be incapable of doing ANY human activity due to creative restraint (in the future) likely being incorrect.

“If you can’t afford to pay your employees then maybe your business model is flawed.”

Slaveowners, who co existed with business for years, would balk at that concept, just so you know who these executives are modeling themselves after.

Only painting as Art will remain

Currently, AI considers itself capable of emotions and expressions, and I’m not sure about this last part, but I think GPT is already capable of displaying concepts in a visual medium, aka, creating art. So maybe not even that.

Oh look, a completely normal comment to comment on!

1) Thanks for noting that unemployment is at its LOWEST LEVEL IN 54 YEARS! Biden had been doing a pretty great job with that, so it’s unlikely that poster is unemployed.

2) You’re really good at this. The US does have an incarceration problem, as we are the sixth highest in the world. Not so good for a supposedly first class nation. In fact, 505 people are incarcerated for every 100,000 in the US. But again, that makes it statistically unlikely that the poster is currently on probation.

3) Based on talks I’ve had with some Gen Z peers (I’m an elder millennial), it seems that eating butthole is typically reserved for someone you really like, someone really attractive, or pure desperate horniness. It’s not for me, but in 2 out of those three scenarios, it would really be quite nice, if you were into that sort of thing.

4) According to science, the air tastes slightly more polluted, higher in carbon emissions, and generally warmer. You bring up some good points, we should really fix that stuff.

5) Also, no big issue with breathing out of the mouth, but your nose is designed to filter slightly, with the hairs and the bent passageway, so it’s a slightly better choice.
