Classic wolf vs sheep paranoid reality of toxic individualism.
These people cannot fathom humanity being bigger than “strong kill weak” or “predator / prey / competitor” classifications.
Many men hold this worldview as their reality as the bro culture and toxic masculinity plays right into it.
- Comment on The AI bubble is so big it's propping up the US economy (for now) 1 week ago:
As someone who works with integrating AI- it’s failing badly.
At best, it’s good for transcription- at least until it hallucinates and adds things to your medical record that don’t exist. Which it does and when the providers don’t check for errors - which few do regularly- congrats- you now have a medical record of whatever it hallucinated today.
And they are no better than answering machines for customer service. Sure, they can answer basic questions, but so can the automated phone systems.
They can’t consistently do anything more complex without making errors- and most people are frankly too dumb or lazy to properly verify outputs. And that’s why this bubble is so huge.
It is going to pop, messily.

Agree.
Complaining about civility is the first step toward letting morons rule.
If one is making foolish or false statements, one should expect to be humiliated. Come back when you are better educated.
If one is being an asshole for no good reason or making false accusations against another due to losing an argument, they should understand that they are now a legitimate target for everyone to dump on with impunity.
Being confidently wrong, or an asshole without cause deserves equal or greater consequences to the harm caused. Public shaming via humiliation - aka incivility - is more effective than actual punishment or moderation.
- Comment on The Prime Reasons to Avoid Amazon 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, not a choice any of us who work in tech can make. But the small choices we CAN make do add up significantly.
- Comment on The Prime Reasons to Avoid Amazon 5 weeks ago:
Amazon is already dead to us. Just like Tesla, Target, Starbucks, and Meta.
They will never be purchased from, or supported in any way- ever again.

Proper headline:
“Intelligent People Understand the Limits and Dangers of AI; Unfortunately AI Company Leaders Do Not, and Seek to Silence Opposition”
- Comment on Chilling audio captures firefighter begging for help after crazed gunman ambushes crew responding to Idaho fire, killing 2 1 month ago:
“Crazed” doesn’t work for a sniper.
Maybe ICE agents or firefighters working with them.
But not a sniper.
- Comment on Why is Lemmy attempting to radicalise people to enforce class wars? 1 month ago:
It doesn’t seem like you understand how to speak properly.
Pseudo intellectualism is when people present false or illogical statements as fact.
And right now, the only person doing that is you.
- Comment on Why is Lemmy attempting to radicalise people to enforce class wars? 1 month ago:
Sounds like a citizen or fed that is fat on propaganda swallowed whole and without thought is angry that others don’t share his delusions.
