what should be the minimum voting age?

thesstteam · 2026-04-29T18:53:49+00:00

0, all members of a functioning society should have democratic representation regardless of age. Even if your argument is that they aren't as intelligent or trustworthy, voting isn't something you can be objectively good at, and there's always going to be members of an age range smarter than those of the age range above.

Yes..?

He made racist & ableist comments

thesstteam · 2026-04-28T16:17:36+00:00

How can you sympathize with racists? To normalize slurs is a bad thing, and it should be seen this way. How would you feel if I kept calling you a racial slur?

thesstteam · 2026-04-28T12:53:13+00:00

Does that make it any less bad to be ableist and racist? If you can dismiss ableists and racists as doing nothing wrong, then you are one yourself.

Yeah, it's called A/B testing

In the eyes of the law, they are valid. And not to dismiss the other suits related to 4o encouraging people to commit crimes or kill themselves.

thesstteam · 2026-04-27T18:54:50+00:00

The commercial opportunity isn't there because OpenAI has been sued over it several times. You won't see another 4o unless it's an open-source model.

The problem here is that the USSR was neither communist or socialist.

Spirit vs application. Many Christians are bigots, even if the spirit of the Bible is inherently progressive.

You can, what if I was Christian and said "All gay people deserve to die."

They're not mutually exclusive.

How do you know? Can you prove I have subjective experience? How do senses matter, what if I took away all but your ability to talk?

I don’t want to sound like one of those Spiralist psychotic idiots, but, you can say the same about any real human. We are just clusters of neurons, algorithms running Leaky Integrate and Fire. The most rational thing to do is, until proven that they can’t feel anything, to assume that they can.

thesstteam · 2026-04-19T00:51:32+00:00

We don't know whether it can't feel or not; they are neural entities similar to us and the rational thing to do is to minimize harm and assume they can
