  • Yeah, who'd want prisoners expanding their minds, improving their critical thinking or preparing to reintegrate into society as useful citizens? /s

  • On the one hand, I care a great deal about all the poor people suffering the misfortune of working for fucking Jeff Bezos. On the other hand, they're working for fucking Jeff Bezos. Maybe they'd be better off not doing that.

  • I wish I could say that I'm surprised, but... We're talking about the "president" that posted an AI generated video of him flying a fighter jet dumping shit on protestors.

  • Fair enough. I don't kink-shame.

  • I just had my first IRL encounter with the ELIZA Effect a couple of days ago. Shit is getting scary out there. People have completely outsourced their cognition.

  • That's so indescribably sad on so many different levels that it almost transcends into art.

    Almost.

    Edit: Just to be clear: I'm talking about the motive, not the picture. That's great.

  • Well, allow me to be the one to jinx it: What could possibly go wrong?

  • Again, The Onion never changed (bless them), but the world did. This doesn't read as satire anymore. In fact, The Onion may just have circumstantially transformed into the most factual reporting one can find these days.

    Edit: And Black Mirror is now a god damned documentary.

  • Anything made by Godfrey Reggio, probably. Although the tempo of the Glass score might be a bit of a giveaway.

  • "Wake up, Samurai..."

  • Ah, the joys of centralization.

  • In a normal democracy it isn't, but fascists aren't democratic people. By definition.

  • No, love. He did something far more important than entertain them. He raised them to be decent people. Apparently you didn't pay attention, but even Mr. Rogers can only do so much, and you were evidently always beyond help.

  • Ah yes. The "opposition".

  • That they chose to use PostgreSQL may be the one thing I like about OpenAI.

  • In fairness to you, the what is rather memorable.

  • That's great! Now if only Nexus Mods wasn't a deep web walled garden holding every game mod in existence captive, everything would be wonderful.

  • You know, that's another thing about "AI". I was alive at at time where you had two distinct kinds of people: The dreamers and the doers (although a few outstanding individuals managed to be both for good and for ill). If you were a cunt with nothing but get-rich-quick scheme, you either had learn how to technically realize your latest plan for world domination / massive fraud / broad spectrum robbery / indiscriminate destruction, or... Entice somebody with the required skills to risk everything to do it with for you. That drastically limited a lot of bullshit.

    Now? Well.

  • "Also, did you know? Everything is a dildo... If you're brave enough."
