  • Kind of the constant history of socialism. It’s almost the same as the arguement against being LGBT.

    See being LGBT is bad, I can prove it, look at the suicide rates of LGBT people?

    Isn’t that because you are bullying them?

    Yeah, but I wouldn’t bully them if they were straight, so that proves being LGBT is bad for your health!




  • Except generally speaking… those far right small government types are actually very concerned with increasing the number of people of their own race… hence why abortion, birth control etc… are what they fight against.

    They just dont’ care about feeding or keeping those people comfortable, they want them toiling away for scraps.





  • I mean that’s basically the setup we have here as well. Problem isn’t that… well duh if you consent to your picture being on the internet this happens… The problem is, this genie is out of the bottle. For now Sora is, kinda half assed attempting to follow a “only use real people that have consented”. We already know, if it isn’t codified into law… these things will be adapted by companies that don’t care about the rules… and existing companies will also be more generous of what they can consent to etc…

    IMO I don’t think they’ve worked the model beyond “this still works for the next quarter”. IE it’s mainly betting on, other companies paying enough that their workers can buy their products. But of course if their methods are working those companies will be less profitable and thus either go out of business or be aquired.

    or perhaps the government assisting the people with food stamps etc… which of course they are voting to cut to give themselves bigger tax cuts.

    The only possible way this has any long term capacity is if this is a short term game that they intend to massively change when they hit a certain point and all competition is completely out of the market. IE all industries move into a seperate monopoly, and then just become their own government.

    I don’t think they are really thinking that far ahead though. economy works on short term numbers, and they are just doing what’s best for them until the next quarter, without considering that 5 years down the line they could be destroying themselves.








  • I do aknowledge that’s always going to be the problem when we have the human + AI driver combinations.

    Safest hypothetical is 100% AIs that always follow the same rules… next safest is humans that break the rules, but in a context aware situation (IE everyone going 70 in a 55, is safer than 1 car going 55 and all other cars going 70).

    Real danger though is if the AI doesn’t make good judgement calls when doing so. IE rather than deciding based on how fast other cars are going, it’s primary determination is whether the user says they are in a hurry, leading it to sometimes be the one car going 55, but if the person is in a hurry it may be the only car going 70 on a road everyone else is going 55.


  • yeah fully second this… The evidence for it are vague at best… and to quintuple it up… The dude apparently lives on live stream, just looking at his streaming stats it looks like he’s literally streaming 4-8 hours every single day, with his dog coming up in the background. Someone wants to say he’s abusing that dog because they found one 5 second clip of one event that seems hypothetically questionable, that’s kind of crazy to me. I can’t think of a person who’s interactions with his dog are more regularly visible to the public then him, and one incident of the dog yelping for half a second before laying down comfortably on a dog bed… being used as evidence that he’s a horrific animal abuser, seems like such an extreme stretch.

    as even if we gave the critics 100% trust, and even if we somehow conclude that it is in fact a shock collar, and we were to conclude that he used it this time in this situation… clearly he uses it pretty damn sparingly when over half of his waking hours around his dog, are visible for the whole world to watch.



  • MTG is just legitimately stupid and believes all the crazy stupid shit her party and crazy right wing conspiracy theorists have said. Problem being since she actually believes these things, she can’t turn on a dime like the rest of her party and go from “release the files” to “nothing to see here trust the government”, like the shills did.

    and she’s actually anti semetic, so she can’t actually hold the half and half antisemetic viewpoint of “jews control the media and are plotting in a global cabal to wreck the world”, “except for those jews that happen to be in Isreal and are dropping bombs on women and children, and picking fights with every other country near them… those are the only good jews”.

    Honestly as a representative in congress. I think stupid is actually less dangerous than intentionally evil like the majority of the republican party (at least for representatives, for voters obviously stupid and duped just sets them up to vote for the actually evil ones)
