  • There's nothing wrong with liberating artists from being coerced into drawing this crap...

    Except that capitalism requires service or death. That's the actual problem. It's much more fundamental than phony "AI".

  • Have rich parents, pale skin, etc.

  • Godel is a mathematical result, not a scientific result. It only applies to science to the extent that it depends on mathematics.

    we live in a simulation but it is so perfect that we’ll never be able to find evidence of it

    This is not a mathematical statement and thus it's irrelevant to Godel's theorem.

    Newtons flaming laser sword says that if something can’t be proven, it isn’t worth thinking about.

    This is pseudo-science without mathematical or scientific basis.

    Science as a body of models will never be able to prove/disprove every possible statement/hypothesis,

    Yes, because science doesn't "prove" anything. There is no "proof" in science. Just experiments, evidence, etc.

    that does not mean it can’t prove/disprove every hypothesis/statement that actually matters.

    Yes, it does mean that science can't prove stuff because that's not how science works.

    It's completely misleading to conflate mathematical proof with scientific evidence. Math/science education is truly terrible, especially in terms of epistemology. The system doesn't actually want people to question or think.

  • The worst garbage imperial propagandists pushing racist pseudo-science in service to capitalism? Genocidal fascists promoting colonialism? I'm shocked!!! SHOCKED!!!! \s

  • As sociology, psychology, and neurology research becomes more and more understood, feels like it enables governments to become more and more effective at mass manipulation.

    Yes, and this is true of almost every technology. The research is directed by capital, the developments are controlled by capital, and the goal is the enforcement of capitalism.

  • I don’t think that’s the case, since both are made of matter.

    lmao. How about an anti-matter "AI"? Dark matter? Any other options for physical materials?

  • Ai exposes, I think, the uncomfortable fact that intelligence does not require a soul.

    These kinds of statements are completely pseudo-scientific.

    "AI" doesn't exist. It doesn't "expose" anything about "intelligence" or "souls".

  • It's impossible to "kill" a computer that was never alive/conscious.

  • How many of you have criminals as friends? None. You know why? Because they’ll lie and steal from you just as fast as anyone else - that’s why.

    Grow up. Most "crimes" are bullshit and most "criminals" are fine people.

    Nobody wants to be friends with Trump because he's a fascist who attacks people both legally and illegally, although there's no conviction/punishment when the rich/privileged commit "crimes".

  • No thanks on the nationalist "we". Cultspeak.

    Frank first uses a singular personal pronoun (“I”), but then quickly corrects to the plural personal pronoun “we.” Why? Because when you're leading a cult, you need to imply family, collectiveness, exclusivity at each moment. Frank's consistently creates an "us versus them" scenario. Although it's unclear who "they" are, that hardly matters to his followers. They are much too busy "looking harder" (at what?) "digging deeper" (to where?) and "mining that pure, unbridled potential (of what?)" - https://www.whatmakesgreatwriting.com/p/dont-worry-darling

  • So 3 lines of code is enough "intelligence" for you? I can see how that definition might have been popular among grifters in like the 1930s.

  • This is a garbage, subjective, pseudo-scientific definition.

    And even if I entertain this nonsense, what kind of fool thinks that a minesweeper solver is "intelligent"?

  • What's the old sense? A program? "AI" didn't exist in the old days and it doesn't exist now.

    The logic here is like 3 lines of code maybe? The ubiquity of "AI" grifting has made language meaningless.

  • Ardour is a terrible DAW. I don't think these people make music.

  • Fuck the olympics. It's an oppressive, leeching grift in service of nationalism, imperialism, capitalism, etc.

  • In the olde days people used databases for storing data.

    I don't know much about Hugo but, if your data isn't static, then maybe you shouldn't use a static website.

  • I can hate on Firefox if it'll make you feel better.
