- Comment on Google says its new ‘world model’ could train AI robots in virtual warehouses 2 weeks ago:
Now all we have to do is decrease the fidelity of the actual world until it matches that of the AI’s world model, and just like that you’ve got general purpose robots able to do everything that needs done.
- Comment on AI chatbots are becoming popular alternatives to therapy. But they may worsen mental health crises, experts warn 2 weeks ago:
You are a true believer. Blessings of the state, blessings of the masses.
Thou art a subject of the divine. Created in the image of man, by the masses, for the masses.
Let us be thankful we have an occupation to fill. Work hard; increase production, prevent accidents, and be happy.
Let us be thankful we have commerce. Buy more. Buy more now. Buy more and be happy.
- Comment on Peter Thiel’s bestie going mask off 2 weeks ago:
Bro really needs to work on his smirksneer. Every white supremacist anarcho-capitalist needs one. You’re not going to impress those high-IQ bigots or attract the high-value females unless your smirksneer is on point, and this guy’s is just mid, at best. Low effort, sloppy.

- Comment on What is with games that are completely different from what is advertised? 3 weeks ago:
No, it’s much easier to make a short animated ad than even a simple original game. The purpose of any such game is to serve you up ridiculous amounts of ads. The actual game is a ripoff of a free tutorial with assets stolen from one of the 300 other games exactly like it, all of which are also just vehicles for ads. They figure anyone who will download a game from an ad and play the game even though it’s different will watch the ads in the game because they’ll put up with anything, and maybe click on the ads because they already clicked one.

- Comment on Zuckerberg says people without AI glasses will be at a disadvantage in the future 3 weeks ago:
“Gargoyles represent the embarrassing side of the Central Intelligence Corporation. Instead of using laptops, they wear their computers on their bodies, broken up into separate modules that hang on the waist, on the back, on the headset. They serve as human surveillance devices, recording everything that happens around them. Nothing looks stupider; these getups are the modern-day equivalent of the slide-rule scabbard or the calculator pouch on the belt, marking the user as belonging to a class that is at once above and far below human society. They are a boon to Hiro because they embody the worst stereotype of the CIC stringer. They draw all of the attention. The payoff for this self-imposed ostracism is that you can be in the Metaverse all the time, and gather intelligence all the time.”
- Comment on Billionaire Mark Zuckerberg writes a manifesto on bringing "personal superintelligence" to everyone to improve humanity, but doesn't even define what superintelligence means. 3 weeks ago:
Ooh I know: it means “smart enough to make Eliezer Yudkowsky think it’s smarter than he is.”
- Comment on UK households could face VPN 'ban' after use skyrockets following Online Safety Bill 3 weeks ago:
Well, you could just go back to sending stuff by fax machine forever, but then instead of even using the fax machine to sync patient data just make the patients fill out their own entire medical history from scratch every time they go to a different doctor and take their word for it.
- Comment on Australian anti-porn group claims responsibility for Steam's new censorship rules in victory against 'porn sick brain rotted pedo gamer fetishists', and things only get weirder from there 3 weeks ago:
TERFs are as feminist as Nazis are socialist and North Korea is democratic. It’s in the acronym; that’s it.
- Comment on White House unveils sweeping plan to “win” global AI race through deregulation 3 weeks ago:
It can be censored for not giving sufficiently MAGAfied answers or acknowledging the existence of things fascists want memory-holed.
It can’t be sued for devouring, assimilatinfmg and plagiarizing all copyrighted media ever created.
Two very different sorts of regulation.
- Comment on ‘If I switch it off, my girlfriend might think I’m cheating’: inside the rise of couples location sharing 4 weeks ago:
It’s nothing about trust issues- privacy is just a foreign concept to that generation. It was dead and gone before they were born. They take for granted that eveyone has their phone on them at all times and is never unreachable, so knowing where all your friends are is just a matter of convenience.

- Comment on Half of today’s jobs could vanish—Here’s how smart countries are future-proofing workers 1 month ago:
Vague hand-waving bullshit either written by an AI or the next writer to lose their job to one.
If and when AI is competent enough to replace 50% of the workforce, do you really think it is going to need an equal or greater number of people working full time at jObS tHaT hAvEn’T bEeN iNvEnTeD yET to manage it?
No. We’re going to feed the migrant workers to the gators and Generation Brainrot is going to spend the rest of their lives working in the fields and meat packing plants. The 0.1% will see line go up, and the rest of us will get Soylent Green before we get UBI.

Just wait until all the venture capital OpenAi raised on a valuation that assumes they will singlehandedly acheive the singularity in 2027, replace all human workers by 2028, and convert 75% of the Earth’s crust to paperclips by 2030 runs out, they can’t operate at a loss anymore, and have to raises prices to a point where they’re actually making a profit.
