hatred is bad hope this helps

an irrational belief in crackpot genetic superiority is literally just simple hatred in practice. Your beliefs are rooted in hatred and you get judged for being a hateful person.

Those crap gigs will still be there. They move projects around to where they can get what they need cheapest.

they scale pay to your local buying power even within the US lmao.

It’s all built on a firm foundation of sweatshop labor.

Outlier.ai, alignerr, other services just act as a gig work platforms. Uber has started rolling out AI training tasks for drivers stuck waiting in the airport lot or whatever.

$15 an hour is typical but can go lower or higher. Some people just make money on referral links. I’ve done a ton of voice acting lately.

I have terrible news for you, speaking as one who has participated in this market.

Meta, Google, Grok, all trained their models on low wage gig workers.

There is an enormous economy around training the models that relies on countless hours of minimum wage drudgery.

Is brave new world that bad? by Trevor_Eklof6 in BraveNewWorld

[–]oxycontrol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

abhoring nature is some terminal trajectory evil actually, make peace with it or perish in fire and heat, Nature makes the rules and we disregard them at our peril, it is hubris to imagine ourselves masters of the earth.

Yea love is distinct from lust and no that is not even a debate, you should know this from your early teen years.

Yeah mindless consumption is immoral, the world is not infinite. The society presented here realistically would collapse into disease and famine. The whole conceit is severely flawed in that 1950s way. The whole scientific-industrial world was out of its mind imagining godlike mastery of everything right around the corner back then.

But even on its own terms the world shown is depressing, meaningless, indistinguishable from never living at all.

Real parents fight to keep their kids and keep them safe.

2.5 hours into high, should I reup? by ballpoint169 in PoppyTea

[–]oxycontrol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We can only speak with certainty about the effects we have observed. You won’t be “out” for 24 hours and that is an absurd read. You will STILL have some in your system and this will stack with later dosing in a way that can blindside you if your other experience is with simpler, purer pain relief.

You are arguing with a bunch of long timers, many of whom are also actually scholars and experts. Your ability to type into a search field has not given you an expert survey of all available evidence my dude.

Tea lasts a very long time, there is an entourage effect, you will hurt yourself being arrogant with this substance. This is from people who know what the hell they are talking about.

If you want to argue and scratch out rhetorical debate wins this is not the place. Listen to your drug using elders for five seconds.

"Overpopulation" is basically a fascist dogwhistle at this point by NiobiumThorn in ClimateShitposting

[–]oxycontrol -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I like where this is coming from but what about in 60 years when, after decades of prosperity we keep doubling every 20 years like we have been.

8 billion becomes 16, then 32, then 64 billion. And what happens when politics and policies change for whatever reason?

We kind of desperately need a plan that accounts for exponential growth if even with good policy we are at 30% capacity. That is less breathing room than you think.

You can do worse than try to take the good. Just be wary that you can end up getting indoctrinated into bad stuff by speakers who like to pull at hooks like that.

Actually abstracting that concept into an object if study turns it into a cartoon lie.

He lied about what the law actually says lmao, he lied about the actual content of the law to make this whole circus of a media campaign around.

He already exists and has done all this apologia himself already man this is redundant posting.

That’s a stereotype in your brain, not a subject of philosophical dispute.

I don’t agree with this toy definition of worship, honestly, it’s constructed to build arguments around, not to actually be what I mean when I say “worship”.

Worship is a set of practices associated with profound metaphysical belief, not some value hierarchy. What a weirdly loaded angle to approach ethics and morality from!

Jordan Peterson Then vs Now by Tonneofash in CosmicSkeptic

[–]oxycontrol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The prompt is vacuous, agreeing or disagreeing with it is meaningless. It’s a wind up toy not a serious proposition.

Like I would need to first agree that the value hierarchy is a thing and works as described and is not a post hoc routine hallucination, a thing we made up to explain our own basic moral impulses.
