I don't know if it's my job to define what discussion topics define the best corner of the internet, but I'm glad anyways you're willing to play along and reduce the number of times AI is brought into the comments!

Yeah you can count on my reticence, everything seem to be going back to normal.

Oh wait what is that?!

Another low volume slop news day! Maybe I'm more influential than I previously thought..

  • Well, I can count on you being reserved only once you do accept sending me more links about how other people talk about AI only continues your half. If everyone makes noise about how the other side hasn't quieted down yet so they won't the only outcome is it gets ever louder, as this never ending comment chain about AI has already proven.

      Yes, we shouldn't be pointing out the low-value content and enshittification brought upon by this superior technology, or even question why isn't research focused on addressing challenges like disease and poverty eradication, cause we bring more attention to any potential negative aspects, which are obviously very minimal and exaggerated. We should just accept dogmata about having to reconcile with the idea that humans have eventually lost in some absurd creativity/imagination race against the superior AGI machines and it's perfectly reasonable having negative IQ CEOs laying off thousands because AI does their job "better" (costs cheaper) than them. I'm sure paying no attention and magically letting it die on its own is the solution. Just like it has historically happened with other subjects like phrenology, scientific racism, antisemitism etc.

      What are you even doing here, enjoy another trite useless application offered to you as another breakthrough that I'm obviously responsible for having 1.5K upvotes cause I can't shut up.
