  • Israel and USA can go and fuck themselves with a bomb shaped dildo for all I care.

    Okay, so we can agree that Israel and the US are evil.

    So. What does it say about Ukraine that they are on the same side?

  • The Women Leaving the New Right. Defectors say the movement has dropped the pretense of protecting women and is now openly “cruel and fickle.”

  • There's two constants of fascism:

    1. Fascists believe war is strength, so they're constantly opening new fronts in every struggle. They never wait for one fight to finish before they start a new one, they just keep starting more-and-more fights with more-and-more groups.
    2. Fascists believe purity is strength, so they're constantly eating each other. They're always striving for greater purity, so every fascist movement becomes a circular firing squad as the fascists purge their ranks of the impure.

  • Taking their money makes sense.

    EDIT To clarify: Not as a way to fund anything, but because they should have less money.

  • Consider the fact that Iranians living in other countries might have different opinions than people who actually live in Iran and have to live with the consequences.

  • The world will be better off if the US and Israel lose. If they're allowed to do whatever they want we're all going to die, the empire must be destroyed.

  • Do you think China will win the AI race?

    Jump

  • The only race I can think of is the race to AI being profitable. Right now it's just a money and energy pit.

  • Hey, if you didn't want Iran to have a nuke, maybe you shouldn't have assassinated the leader who was opposed to Iran having a nuke?

  • Professors Say AI Is Destroying Their Students' Ability to Think

    Jump

  • What? I said that chatbots can be useful, such as if you used it to explain concepts like how I used to use supplemental lectures. Hardly black-and-white! The danger surrounds students using it as a shortcut to avoid work and to cheat on assignments, and they absolutely will.

    Remember, fault is irrelevant. The assumption you seem to have is that a student that uses a chatbot to sabotage their own education deserves it; we should just let this divide emerge between students that ruin their education with chatbots and students that succeed. Basically a sink or swim/survival of the fittest approach to education.

    That's a horrible idea. We can't afford to allow students to ruin their education. The vast vast majority of students merely do what is required to get a passing grade, and if getting a passing grade no longer requires learning or understanding anything then they won't bother. That's really bad for them as students, and for society as a whole.

    What you're proposing is the collapse of civilization.

  • Fault is irrelevant. The question is if students will hurt their education with AI, and they will. Whether they're hurting themselves or being hurt by an unsafe technology is actually a secondary question that doesn't really matter in this instance.

  • There's different ways to use it. If you use it to cheat, yeah, your ability to think will be destroyed because you aren't learning.

    It might be more useful if used to explain concepts, so you can do the actual work yourself. I know there's a lot about math that I didn't really learn in class and had to learn from extra lectures I watched outside class in my personal study time, so if someone used it like that it might help. Personally, I'd be too anxious about hallucinations teaching me bad information. The last thing I'd want is to end up like that guy who thought he was inventing new types of math because his chatbot told him he's a genius.
