  • Headline in a couple of years:

    Open AI's Cop GPT opens fire on an unsuspecting black family visiting texas from Georgia. Sam Altman claims auto pilot disengaged 1ms before the trigger was pressed so it's the fault of the soldier holding the abort button.

  • COPD is the fourth leading cause of death worldwide. That's the entire universe of people in the world.

    I guess WHO also downplays mental health because their take is actually quite similar to my take, you know, the only responsible adult in this thread...

    I don't know why I'm even bothering to entertain this conversation. Good day.

  • Oh ffs, grow up. Nobody is downplaying the effects of mental health, just asking people to be reasonable. That's, however, anno 2025, too much to ask. Everyone exists in hyperbole and asinine takes.

    PTSD is eminently treatable and manageable. It doesn't naturally degenerate, it sucks but you can live till you're old. Black lung, COPD are chronic, degenerative diseases that will eventually make you gasp for air till you die while your loved ones look on without being able to do anything.

    This is beyond stupid, I don't know when we, as a civilisation, reached a point where people can't understand shades of grey anymore and live in absolutes only.

  • That it's significantly less hazardous than coal mining and comparing it so doesn't do the discussion the problem needs any favours.

    The researcher in question is part of an institution that is negotiating a 5y research tender renovation so they are just going with stupid shit like this.

  • Funny, it does transpire you're the one googling, otherwise you'd know that the research at Weizenbaum doesn't exist in a vacuum and can't confer degrees, that's why it partnered with universities (much like institutions like the HZI). This charm operation from researchers like the aforementioned one is happening because 2025 is the renovation year for the 5year funding of the Weisenbaum, so it's time to exaggerate the problems since if the trend continues the funding will be even lower this year. (50M in 2017, 36 in 2022) Clearly, you're out of your depth when concerning how public research is conducted and more importantly, funded.

  • The worst of all this is that from the top of our heads we came up with a woman and three black dudes. Other than Madoff I don't remember any white dude getting any deserved retribution other than the recent United Healthcare CEO.

  • I just mentioned the affiliation of her published work and the several works cited as funded by the federal ministry of education and research... If anything you're actually strengthening my point, this type of exaggeration is a charm operation rather than a call for corrective measures.

    Edit: TIL that DAIR, is more relevant than TUB... Ok, I guess, to each their own. Love the exceptionalism of comparing a centennial research university to a 2021 US american initiative.

    Grifters gonna grift.

  • The fact you need to misrepresent my argument to have a leg to stand on already tells any reader what they need to know about the value of your premises.

    Your arguments from the beginning were ad hominem and red herring, not an actual substantive justification to the comparison of mental illness of moderation teams vs illness of coal miners.

    There's some low hanging fruit solutions to this issue. Forbid content moderation work to be subcontracted from BPOs, all moderation work in the GDPR area must be conducted by people with local passports. Include mandatory whistleblower clauses and require medical examinations yearly before people can be hired for this work. Limit the usage of KPIs for moderation work.

    Of course, nobody will enact any of this low hanging fruit because it's easier to exploit migrants. But let's keep listening to grifters comparing moderation with coal miners, that's really going to jive well.

  • Mental healthcare is one of the most neglected forms of care in current modern western society. It IS and always HAS BEEN a serious and damaging form of disease.

    What it isn't is comparable to black lung or COPD in content moderation teams. The exaggeration by hacks like Miceli, to justify her grift and the continued funneling of grants towards her dubious work at TUB does more disservice for the cause than helps. It creates a situation of Peter and the Wolf and makes access to care extremely complicated to people who are suffering from mental illness, with severe social and personal consequences.

  • Why are we still doing this? Just fucking invest in mass transit like metro, buses and metrobuses. Jesus

    Also, Note that this is based on waymo's own assumptions, that's like believing a 5070 gives you 4090 performance...

  • Careful about mentioning the "Netflix syndrome", people here are touchy when you call out low effort writing in movies/games. Somehow studios/publishers have been extremely successful in having people establish para-social relationships with their characters and stories regardless of how poorly written they are. This results is very strong antibodies every time anyone calls out the utter lazyness in dialogue, set pieces and exposition.

  • I'd bet spez would gladly share that info if the court paid for the data rather than request it via legal.
