Yeah, that’s where my mind is at too.

AI in its present form does not act. It does not do things. All it does is generate text. If a human responds to this text in harmful ways, that is human action. I suppose you could make a robot whose input is somehow triggered by the text, but neither it nor the text generator know what’s happening or why.

I’m so fucking tired of the way uninformed people keep anthropomorphizing this shit and projecting their own motives upon things that have no will or experiential qualia.

I would personally contribute enough to cover nine other fans

I wish we could collectively buy Star Trek.

A public cooperative trust or something.

It’s hard to overstate how badly one must fuck up to drive Britain into the arms of FRANCE.

Yet another case of right wing terrorism; how unoriginal.

Dammit, Bones; you’re a doctor, not a comedian!

They’d rather pay immigrants pennies on the dollar…

…yeah that strat isn’t gonna carry water much longer the way shit’s going lately >_>;;;

What agony tastes like. Every nerve in my entire mouth, screaming. The room, spinning. The air, ringing. Can’t think. Can’t move. Every beat of my heart shooting pain as the nerves re-stimulate. Sometimes I still feel echoes of the pain. It has been twenty years. Just smelling the blend of other seasonings commonly used reawakens the flashbacks. Some part of me is still in that restaurant, still suffering, even now…

I will never eat Thai food again.

… It’s like we forgot, as a whole society, how to build houses. What the fuck is wrong with us. Jesus fucking CHRIST.

I’m never giving up this house. My grandparents bought it in 1953. I can’t imagine any “production” house will ever be as good as this one and it’s not like this one is even particularly great. Basic competency is becoming rarer by the year.

We’re in the midst of a housing crisis and the few houses that are being built are utter trash. Fuck.

Damn, lady; I’m sick of dealing with boomers too but that’s several bridges too far!

Me too, oof

scum like this are what keep me from entirely opposing capital punishment

although, that term is a misnomer: punishment is a tool whose purpose is to teach and reinforce behavioral changes.

This sack of shit will never learn anything. Erasing him would not be for his sake, but for the world’s.

The supreme court declared him above the law.

Therefore the law will not stop him.

Which means that the only way to stop him… has nothing to do with courts or judges or lawsuits.

They just don’t fucking get it.

They’ve raked in billions by losing elections and doing nothing; this is exactly who they are and how they wanted things to be.

It would be SO FUNNY if Cuomo lost

There was also Nog, the young Ferengi from Deep Space 9, who allegedly addressed the test in two unique ways:

He tried to bargain with the enemy ship and haggled it to a standstill until the simulation crashed,

AND

He used the tractor beam to fling the friendly ship back toward the border and then briefly engaged the enemy only to surrender in order to distract them from their prey and buy time. While the hostiles began boarding, he initiated self destruct but attempted to mute the ship’s computer announcement so they wouldn’t suspect it.

Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.

If they made Elliott Roger a meme (for being a pathetic ineffectual piece of shit) this can be a meme.

Fucking REAL honestly!!! Any adult on that service is FESTOONED in Red Flags.
