  • Trump Appoints 22-Year-Old Ex-Gardener and Grocery Store Assistant to Lead U.S. Terror Prevention

  • Hopefully you have more insight now as to why that is.

  • Not sure why this isn’t clear to you, but being a gardener is brought up because it’s almost the only job experience he has, and it is obviously not related to counter terrorism. It is not mentioned with the intent of criticizing gardeners.

  • It doesn’t mean they have no skills. Just that the job doesn’t require a specific set of skills or knowledge, unlike a cabinet position.

  • I don't save stuff with it but I read the articles that come up on desktop. so it's kinda like a community, subreddit, rss feed, whatever

  • I enjoy pocket for the articles that come up on the new tab page. I’ve never once saved an article for later with it.

  • How come people over 60 instantly clung to the narrative everything on the internet is likely AI?

  • The people who believe a kid in Africa made a working automobile from balloons and that boats are pulling whales from the water and cleaning off thousands of barnacles will be 75-80 then.

  • That was me. It was a typo. Sorry

  • Yes, I meant to say 60 or 65 like OP did. Funny thing is I’m about 50.

  • Sure... OP said over 60, but I think over 65-70 would be more accurate for people who don't know about generative AI at all.

  • I haven't really heard anyone over 65 or whatever espouse the dead internet theory. Could be a trend I don't know about, I guess.

  • I'm almost that age, and am technically adept also. I'd say the "old people on Facebook" age is a good bit higher. I'm sure some people who are 65 or 70 understand what AI is too.

    Jump

  • Have they? What I’ve seen is people over 50 60 (really 65) have zero idea that AI exists and consistently fall for obviously absurd Facebook posts.

    Edit, I see where some of these responses came from - OP said over 60, and I meant to say over 60 too, not 50.

  • What does an American accent sound like in your native language?

    Jump

  • There are multiple American accents. I consider west coast and to some extent Midwest unaccented… New York or Boston, yeah, and southern drawl, yeah. Alabama is like a new England who drank lead for 120 years. But obviously thats just my perspective. It was hilarious to me to hear my Australian friend do an American accent from her perspective.

  • What accents are these?

    Jump

  • The first one sounds like Jamaican guy I know who lives in canada. Second, I don’t know. Third is just generic American accent, maybe Southwest or west coast.
