Ah yes, blaming the victim. How didn’t I think of that! Next up: telling women it’s their fault when they get assaulted because their skirt was one inch too high.

Suddenly, explicit photos and videos of her were being spread and resold like wildfire alongside abusive material: upskirting videos and photos of sleeping, naked women.

I think you deliberately skipped this part of the article.

I keep getting the suspicion that many of these flashy projects are red herrings paid by Musk or Zuckerberg or whoever to stop people from actually developing reasonable alternatives.

Because shit like this keeps happening over and over.

The electric violin scene was cool, tho.

Thanks!

So what exact oil did you use, and what brand? I love that finish because it reminds me of my school’s desks (big nostalgia moment) so I would love to replicate it.

Also, how did you attach the face frame? Only glue, or did you also use brad nails? Or maybe even dowels?

Holy Moly, this is beautiful 😲

Coming up, in 2030: Anti bot verification by vtuber posting.

Now this will require a vtuber account.

Or how about the new captcha trend: Craft a simple barn in Arbonautica™ (game download available in Steam). You have 5 minutes.

Mastodon. Lemmy is good for discussions, but Mastodon is more Twitter -like so you can follow friends and see what they’re up to.

So basically deny until it’s too late and then do nothing - just like they did with COVID.

Upvoted for cult movie reference. 👍😎

That’s the thing: A good quality sexbot would go to the bathroom and clean itself.

As it should have been.

The scientific community needs to gather and reach a consensus where AI is banned from writing their papers. (Yes, even for translation)

I hope those downvotes were not from here.

Moved to a smaller apartment this month (couldn’t afford the rent anymore). The irony is that I’ve spent a lot in the moving plus house fixing, painting, etc. At least some of the cost will be recovered with the old apt’s payback.

Anyway my new office room is going great, I’ll use it as my “man cave” gaming room, with magenta paint and everything.

Speaking of gaming, I broke my beginning-stage speedrun record on Subnautica: I can get all the basic tools and the Sea Moth in 23 minutes! 🥳

In all honesty, if I was told my data would be handled by some guy in the Philippines rather than a black box algorithm, I’d consider that a plus.

“Human-handled” needs to be some a badge of honor.

It’s kinda funny to hear someone say that, because Neuromancer’s concepts were so revolutionary that you needed to reread the whole thing at least twice to get it.

What happened is that technological advancement brought us to a point where we find the concepts in Neuromancer almost trivial to understand nowadays.

Oh, Cyberspace? You mean, like, the internet? Oh but it’s in VR. Cool.

The US is a ticking timebomb. People are tired, hungry, thirsty, homeless, and desperate. All it will take for shit to go down is a minor famine which due to global warming, is right around the corner.

We are so close… so close to complete societal breakdown. The system can’t sustain itself anymore.

It’s in corporations’ best interest to raise their wages Company execs are already thinking they’re gods and completely disregard how emperors have fallen in the last few centuries. It’s not pretty.

That doesn’t drive the problem of autopilot not taking the right choices. What is the driver wasn’t drunk, but they had a heart attack? What if someone put a roofie on their drink? What if the driver was diabetic or hypoglycemic and suffered a blood glucose fall? What if they had a stroke?

Furthermore, what if the driver got drunk BECAUSE the car’s AI was advertised as being able to drive for you? Think of false publicity.

If your AI can’t handle one simple case of a driver being unresponsive, that’s negligence on the company’s part.
