It’s so cute (euphemism for concerning) how their image of the average trans woman is a white computer science rationalist poster and not, like, a South American sex worker or something.

Why didn’t evolution give females big heads if it would make them all geniuses? Another anecdote. My sister has a big head. She was valedictorian in high school I think. She hit her head one day in middle school during gym class by running into a wall. She also fell off a bike and hit her head in high school. I have never hit my head and I think the main reason is that my arms are strong enough to catch myself. So maybe the big headed women would-be-ancestors fell and hit their heads.[1]

Classics of Reason

Spam machines are only ever funny or interesting by accident. The more they smooth out the wrinkles the more creatively useless they become. The tension is sort of fascinating.

Like I’ve always been interested in generative poetry and other manglings of text, and ChatGPT’s so fucking dull compared to putting a sentence through babelfish a few times.

Not my fight either way tbh

You know what would be awesome is if there was a way to easily see new posts to a thread, like if the “New” button actually put New posts on top. Maybe lemmy truly is too janky for that but it’s a shame because I just start to ignore threads after a while.

I was going to say something about use value, but BTC doesn’t have any exchange value either lol

The fermi paradox is like flipping a coin one time and wondering why coins always come up heads

I do like how you shoved the stupid fermi paradox in there specifically to annoy me though!

ai can’t hurt us just unplug the computer bro

I don’t really agree with this. Artists can’t (and shouldn’t want to) entirely control interpretation, but they still have a responsibility. If your work is palatable to nazis or advertisers or whatever kind of parasite, you need to reflect on why and make it less so, or you’re complicit in my book. I say this as an artist who’s repeatedly moved on to new forms of expression as fashion catches up.

Yeah I thought this one looked very very made up and far too on the nose. I think it’s fine to label human-run spam/troll accounts as bots though.

Somewhat related I stumbled upon robots flirting with eachother the other day.

i love you tom seven

“Hallucination” implies LLMs can meaningfully perceive. They can’t, they’re not made that way and they have no reason to be.

happy pride month

How to deal with the AI-pocalypse as a regular guy?

This is an antinomy so, problem solved I guess?

I often mention that Heidegger was a Nazi, and that doesn’t mean his philosophy should just be dismissed outright

Very true. It should instead be dismissed because it is the exact sort of reactionary nonsense a craven nazi would try to pass off as philosophical inquiry.

cool graph what’s the x axis

it’s unsolvable because it’s literally how LLMs work lol.

though to be fair i would indeed love for them to solve the LLMs-outputting-text problem.

I think you are missing the first half the modern male reproductive lifecycle. What you are saying increasingly applies to 30’s onward (when males are looking for long term family relationships) but for the 20 somethings many are looking for these shallow, vacuous women because they often can be convinced into meaningless sex. It’s a pretty sad state but it appears to be this way now.

Wowsers. I don’t think you’re supposed to say this out loud.

it is qwerty!

a) i tend to take a few tries at a keymash until it looks satisfactory

b) i play piano at the level of a second year student and i have some weird fine coordination quirks, one of the two or a combination of both might be an influence on the sequence

taking all people with cancer in the world right now it’s at least a couple thousands of pure profits, but if you account for all future humans it’s basically giving it away for free!
