  Under what circumstances would AI research and training not be considered a waste of time and resources, in your mind?

  Right now? None.

  Well, his whole ballgame was selling crypto to normal people, not cryptobros.

  All the same crypto cunts to me. Doesn’t matter if you mine, trade, marry or fuck crypto they are all the same cunts to me.

  Do you really think the FTX Super Bowl commercial was targeted at people who can articulate the differences in technology between Bitcoin and Ethereum?

  I don’t watch any sports and few to no ads so I have no idea what you are talking about.

    Wow, this is a concerningly sociopathic worldview. I’m quite sure that a lot of people who were fucked over by FTX were people you would otherwise consider to be your brethren. Or, y’know, your grandparents.

    And here I was thinking Lemmy would be less toxic than Reddit.

      Okay.

      I’m quite sure that a lot of people who were fucked over by FTX were people you would otherwise consider to be your brethren. Or, y’know, your grandparents.

      I can tell you with great certainty that none of my friends or family were/are invested in crypto. None. And if even a single one had been my opinion on crypto cunts would not change.

      And here I was thinking Lemmy would be less toxic than Reddit.

      Sorry?

        Okay.

        That’s the thing about sociopathy: you’re convinced that your opinion is enlightened because you have successfully disregarded the human cost of the issue at hand, when in reality that is the fundamental problem with your opinion.

        Please, for all our sakes, learn to empathize with people who make mistakes you personally wouldn’t. Introspect on the conversation we just had, and ask yourself what stands to be gained from the opinion you hold.
