I would assume that it could be the brand-new form of torture…People are highly creative when it comes to hurting others.

A fool is ever eager to give their money to that which doesn’t work as intended. Provided the surrounding image provides a mystique or resonates with their internal vision of what an ‘AI’ is. It’s pure marketing on their part, Anthropic believes that any press is good press. It makes investors drool over a refined AI, even though, Apple themselves have proven it through their many technical papers current AI is merely ‘smoke and mirrors’ however…For some odd reason, they are still developing their ‘Apple Intelligence’. They are huffing farts just as much as Anthropic is, they have to constantly pull stunts to gaslight their investors into believing that ‘AI’ is going to become a viable product that will make money. Or allow them to get rid of human workers, so their bottom line looks flush (spoiler alert, they have to rehire people, as AI can’t do many of the things a live person with training can).

There reason why this shit is shoved in everything is because it doesn’t have good general use cases and the collection of usage data from people. Most people don’t give money to AI companies, only those who have drank the Kool-Aid do, as they are hope-posting and gaslighting people into believing the current or future capabilities of ‘AI’. LLMs are really great at specific things, collating fine-tuned databases and making them highly searchable by specialists in a field. However, as always the techbros always want to do too much, they need to make a ‘wonder tool’ that inevitably fails and then these lying techbros need to quickly figure out the next scam.

Another Anthropic stunt…It doesn’t have a mind or soul, it’s just an LLM, manipulated into this outcome by the engineers.

I love it when the Turn-off Adblocker prompt has a, “I will not turn off AdBlock or I will not support you” text. I click the fuck out of that. Every ad has a chance of being a malicious one that hijacks my control of the browser (these are really prevalent on mobile).

I’ve always had a stove top kettle, there was no reason to boil water in the microwave for tea. Up until a few years ago, I did not have a microwave. I prefer the even temperature of water boiled in a kettle.

I do! Being reasonably accurate as possible when typing is something that I value! It helps, as sometimes I am a goose on the loose, and don’t proofread my sentences before posting. The obvious errors are at least caught before they become final.

They are flooding the zone, there are countless pro-AI generated content instances. It’s like playing whack-a-mole, I often downvote obvious and human-altered slop (it’s all slop to me). Unfortunately, there are going to be images that have positive votes despite the general dislike of said AI-slop, especially because I tend to block those slop instances these days. Naturally, most of it is objectifying women (something I don’t want to see anyway) so those will naturally get a lot of votes because people weren’t thinking with the right head.

As I am socially anxious; it’s rough to interact with others. However, I will stay strong and try to participate when possible. As, communities do survive if they actually work with one another despite their differences. We can survive Trump’s cursed presidency through working together. The rich fear that shit, this is why the policies Republicans are pushing are so disruptive for the working class. To reduce the odds of them being able to work communally to fight against oligarchs and their mouthpiece Republicans/MAGA sympathizers.

This is just a troll, clearly wants to argue unnecessarily.

This is why I voted for Kamala, as it would’ve reduced harm for a little while…Long enough to figure out an effective counter. Right now, I am using my voice as best as possible to reduce further harm (with the Big Bad Bill coming into effect soon) I dread losing my insurance and wasting away because untreated it’s a guarantee. Given that I live in a mostly Red State, I could be one of the 17 million affected, or spared because I work part-time… If there are elections in the future, I will be voting with harm reduction in mind every time. Unless America becomes a doomed Fascist Nation which devours itself from within.

Promoting a petition that Lemmy as a whole unites against Lemmy.ml might get some traction building. I could only hope that if it succeeded, the mass defederation would begin in earnest.

Whimsical

Yeah, I’ve only gotten grumbles in response too…This is a serious issue, nobody can simply ignore reality and get away with it.

That was the whole point of Project 2025, to basically gut the whole Government and make it so that Republicans were in power; for as long as the USA is still a nation. I don’t know how far they are willing to take it as the discontent is growing, and that might be the spark that ignites the barrel of gunpowder. That’s one outcome, the other is Republicans burning this whole nation down with bad decisions and blaming a long dead Biden for it.

It’s time to mass defederate from Lemmy.ml, like Hexbear, they need to be isolated in their own bubble.

Ugh, this makes me totally furious…In a way I can’t describe. I’ve rallied hard against this bill and got others to do so as well, yet here we are getting royally fucked, by those who only care about the rich bastards in this cursed country. It’s going to plan with Project 2025 that everyone was warned about. Time to up the grassroots participation and hopefully get these fuckwads out of office (if there are going to be elections).

You’re welcome! Yeah, I’ve been in that boat before, reestablishing a healthier connection to games. Games to pass the time in a way nothing else can, especially if you have a dopamine/serotonin deprived brain…It might feel like he can’t stop at the moment, eventually, with gentle, consistent, and firm effort it will be possible. Getting him to the point where he can associate time passing pleasantly with you and other people in his life; this will go a long way of repairing not only your relationship, but, provide him with stronger interpersonal connections.

I feel that you need to gently, but firmly, state your feelings on this matter to him. Reassure him that you don’t want him to completely stop playing games, just that you would enjoy having one on one time with him for at least a few hours a day. As part of a relationship, is reinforcing that connection which was initially formed by dating, and building upon it. To me, his fixation of gaming screams escapism…As it is easier to avoid dealing with discomfort than to face it head-on (I speak from experience on that matter). He’s not a bad dude, like you said, he is fighting (or avoiding) serious internal struggles.

Microsoft is literally scorching earth in their Xbox Gaming Division…Gotta chase those short term profits, I guess. 😡

More bad news from Xbox, I was hoping they’d cut Phil Spencer lose instead…They need a brand-new lead to make Xbox awesome again. I can’t say that I am surprised, though, as this game has been in dev for 7 years. However, there should’ve been something that could be salvaged and made into a viable game.
