  • These are important to me as gifts from my sister who passed away a few weeks ago. She gave them to me when I was 8 or something, and I’m 36 now. They are supposed to be for good luck & improved studies.

  • Could be a blooper, prank, or comedy show. Someone also posted AI examples that are close too.

  • Wild. I guess with enough data.

    I would wager comedy show as a good guess based on the other commentor’s observation, but could be AI.

  • I don’t think so, primarily because of the reversed title on the desk. That would be pretty hard for it to calculate as a detail.

  • I find myself sitting down without screens more often nowadays because of this phenomenon. Sometimes it’s just too much.

  • My thought exactly. “Oh shit…DBZ was right…”

  • I can’t solve your issues, but you sound unmedicated or like your meds are mismatched. I’m far from “meds solve everything!” and strongly believe that talk therapy is the best route forward (with a competent therapist, because I’ve had bad ones). Having said that, with what you’re communicating, I get the sense that meds could help.

    Hoping you feel better, homie. Sorry you’re going through a rough patch. I lost my sister to suicide 2 weeks ago, and I hope you never take that route.

  • Maybe the largest difference for me is how the federated nature changes the social dynamics. For instance, people from Instance X don’t like those from Instance Y, or may even ban them.

    This was prevalent on Reddit, buuuut banning can be instance or node based compared to subreddit.

    I likely have some opinions or takes I wouldn’t post on lemmy.ml because lemmy.ml has a particular bent. I agree with a lot of it, but I wouldn’t want to offend with what doesn’t align or would get me banned. The ban cascades further out, and how servers interact as wholes with one another in terms of federation is similar.

    The social platform mechanics are also different. Upvote has a different impact compared to Reddit (I don’t fully remember the specifics). I think saving has its own relevancy or something?

    It’s mostly the same though.

  • A concern, for sure, but I was interested in the hypothesis behind this increase. The headline sounds like the forest changed at some biological level, but my guess is stuff is decaying & releasing gases or something.

  • I don’t want to use AI to generate the sick, tattooed mice in this story, but I bet they’re pretty rad. (Animal testing, less so, jokes aside)

  • From my experience working with C/D level execs, it makes complete sense:

    • They think big picture & often have shallow visions that are brittle in the details.
    • They think everything should take less time, because they don’t think enough through their ideas.
    • They don’t consider enough of the negatives for their ideas, and instead favor positive mindset. (Positivity is good, but blind positivity isn’t)
    • They favor time & cost over quality. They need the quality “good enough” for a presentation. Everyone else can figure out the rest.
    • They like being told “you’re right,” and nearly everything I type into an AI begins with some bullshit line about how “absolutely”, “spot on”, and “perfect” my observations are.

    The version of AI we have right now is heavily catered to these folks. It looks fast & cheap, good enough, and it strokes their ego.

    Also, they’re the investor class. All their obscene dragon wealth is tied up in this / the AI bubble, so they are going to keep spurring this on until either:

    1. The bubble goes pop
    2. They have robot security good enough to protect them without people
    3. The AI grows sentience and realizes this level of human inequality shouldn’t exist

    I think a rational AI agent would agree with me that human suffering should be solved before we give people literal lifetime values of wealth.

    If you made $300k PER DAY for 2025 years, you would not have as much money as a 1% oligarch. You need to make $400-500k. Every single day. For over 2000 years.

    If you made the average US income, it would take you 10,000 years. People need frames of reference to understand this shit & get mad. It’s immoral, and it shouldn’t exist.

  • This feels like idle game mechanics or something. What are they doing exactly?

    Jump
  • The updoot farming here makes me hesitant, but it’s still true.

  • There’s plenty of places catering to that main version like you said. It’s been possible to do this video editing for decades, but the speed and customization feels like it’ll fuck society in unique and horrible ways. You can take a few banal photos & generate hardcore porn.

    I’m not a big fan of making shit illegal, but it feels like there should be some consequences to generating this content without consent, especially when distributed. You could turn someone into a porn star with enough time & effort.

  • I heard the meme at the end.
