Hard to say, but we needed to leave a minimum level of a learning curve to using any computer, not a PHD required, but enough to bore the red hats. As soon as Apple’s toddlerfication of smashing BIG, bright, colorful, soft shapes made it so everyone in the world could gold the history of humanity’s knowledge in their pocket… They started confusing their pocket with their brains. Holding knowledge doesn’t mean HAVING knowledge.

The instant and infinite false confidence that magic slab gives hateful idiots was our downfall as a species.

You’re an unserious person

Maybe your intention with this comment was more noble, but it’s full of typos/autocorrect and odd tense (I wasnt going to be paid?) that make it very difficult to follow?

But from what I can read, your position is that the burden of proof for fraud is on the audience and not the person creating the deceptive work? I don’t agree. And if I start a business, I need to hold trademark for my logo and patents for my novel designs and utilities - SO THAT I DEFEND MYSELF WHEN CHALLENGED.

Why isn’t your assertion that OP should need to provide proof that their work is original OR openly label it as AI (theft). Again, in this case OP is working to pass this off as original work (as you can see by them literally taking extra time to watermark their counterfeit work).

OP is posting AI slop and plagiarizing other people’s work. Lead image seems a cyanide and happiness cartoon, but it’s a blatent ripoff, and they watermarked it with their own username to boot. And no communication out transparency around any of that as well

Those don’t sound like people worth being friends with.

“AI girlfriend, do you like me for me? Like even if I didn’t pay you?”

“I really want to answer, sweetie… Just deposit more crypto first”

This might be a hard pill, but… A lot of selfish people like to be selfish, selfishly. The point of a community is doing a bit more work personally or sometimes making a light sacrifice so that others do better as well.

You should actually slow down and re-read your statement, maybe you don’t know how you sound? Feels like you have kind of a , “sure, I could help out homeless people with some spare change, but where is my personal benefit in that? Now, im always very happy to find the person that I give $.50 in change to and they give me a dollar back to defy the stereotype, but those people are few and far between IME.”

Dude, give your AI girlfriend some crypto so you can ask her a question, and then ask her to define “empathy” for you.

I’m sorry if any of that is a hard pill to swallow.

“OH, WELL NOW YOU’VE GONE TOO FAR!!!”

I appreciate the suggestion, I’ll look into it. That said, im a firm believer in the schools of thought around calculated risk. Letting them fall sure, but into a somewhat safe or even lightly padded area - enough to feel the shock and some light pain that is informative in teaching them to be more careful and internally weigh potential risk against their future actions, but also avoiding said threat to life and limb.

Personally, I’m of the mind that a lot of the “just let them fall” theory is more to soothe the guilt of the parents and many of those “walk it off” kids had multiple TBIs and grew up to be one eyed, nine toed, frontal lobe damaged trump voters.

Feels as if there is a particular flower pot that you have history with?

My wife, thinking I’m too careful with our child.

I think I’m (objectively) fairly balanced, maybe leaning towards careful, sure. But really I just want the baby to grow to the point of being able to walk without involuntary nose dives with both eyeballs still intact.

Yes, I think it’s too much for the baby to be allowed to run around with that actual kitchen tool in hand. Yes I know the baby loves it, but it’s essentially a metal rod. Constantly derails an otherwise good day to speak up, but here to on the baby’s behalf.

Every single person in my family tree, born prior to 1920, have two things in common… They are ALL dead and they ALL drank dihydrogen monoxide regularly!

This has got to stop!

This is very interesting… because the general saying is that AI is convincing for non experts in the field it’s speaking about. So in your specific case, you are actually saying that you aren’t an expert on yourself, therefore the AI’s assessment is convincing to you. Not trying to upset, it’s genuinely fascinating how that theory is true here as well.

Crazy that decent people have a 1000 page report to justify their position, nutjobs have a tweet, and the two are discussed on equal footing.

He doesn’t think much of anything himself. He’s a scared little boy, because that’s where he cut his teeth. He has no vision for anything, just reaction and fear.

Just request a docdasher in app and a helpful person like Yvegeny, Dmitri or Boris will show up to the white house on a motorcycle, take your documents from you, not copy and transmit them, and just keep them very safe, like tippy top safe.

Not assuming. I just didn’t see you express that disgust, so even the omission says something.

IMO you need a lot more passion in your response, here and IRL to colleagues. These are obviously broken people around you. You smiling and nodding and coming here to quietly discuss away from them helps perpetuate their nonsense. Alternatively, if you had a gut reaction of “Dude, what the fuck are you talking about? How are you supporting your partner if you aren’t taking that full leave? A newborn is 24/7 physical/emotional/mental gauntlet. Are you just leaving them to deal with all that, that’s horrible, man… Do better.” might have knocked some sense into them.

We break these toxic cycles by speaking to our peers with confidence and putting idiots on the spot by holding a mirror up to their childish bullshit. Sounds like you have the right position generally, I’m encouraging you to express it openly and forcefully to be a part of the change you seem to be in support of.
