Oh my fucking god.
… I could really go for some pizza.
God just look at how that melting cheese is just dripping, pouting to be in my mouth.

Confusing?
They spelled ‘suggestive’ incorrectly.
Starfish need love too.
Reply hazy, try again.
(eventually something will catch)


wehn tierlist?!


Exactly.
They literally, fundamentally, don’t get it.
They think its a person.
Its not.
Its a simulation of a person, made of code and hardware, not meat and chemical receptors.
…There’s a reucrring theme (or maybe its more like a chatacter achetype) in a lot of analog horror series, things that are … almost, sort of human, sometimes, but they’re actually not.
They’re capable of great violence and terror, and they only mimic (often very poorly) human qualities and attributes, some of the time.
Uncanny valley itself, given form and capability.
… Do I need to explicitly lay out the parallels here, for any AI Safety Engineers in the audience?
At this point I’m going to say that watching The Second Renaissance from the AniMatrix needs to mandatory, required, monthly training for anyone developing ‘AI.’


But… but… it generates text that seems like a human wrote it!
Therefore it must be a human!
… A whole lot of humans are failing a reverse turing test, just, fundamentally.


I get what you are saying and generally agree, but!
It actually was not always the way it is now.
Play RDR2.
Look at the advertisements for things, actually read them.
They’re actually pretty accurate to the advertisements of the time.
They are extremely based on ‘facts’, convicing the prospective buyer that the product is the best product, is very useful, can do this, is unique in this way.
Of course, sometimes the ‘facts’ are lies… but the general idea is not to sell a … emotion, or personality, or element of identity, or sense of belonging.
Its almost always to convince the buyer that this product is useful to them, and is priced reasonably for what it can do.
The turning point away from this was mostly or largely due to Edward Bernaise, the nephew of Sigmund Freud.
More or less, he applied Freud’s ideas and some of his own, some of others, to marketing.
His first big hit was angling Cigarettes as ‘Torches of Freedom’ to suffragettes.
At that point in time, smoking tobacco was generally seen as disgusting and low class for women, but not for men.
So, he was basically the first guy that went around and paid people to smoke cigarettes, while being trendy, with pre-designed slogans.
… It worked.
Because he was selling identity, not products, and this is much more effective.
Prior to that… brands basically were just built on the reputation of their products.
Now… now its so insane that for many say, video games and movies… far more time of the entire experience of the product is the hype train, the controversy, the twitter wars… prior to the product even coming out.
And then, its often just a flash in the pan.
But… you will still have dedicated fans, ongoing internet arguments, for literal years, even decades, since the last time anyone involved actually viewed or played the product.
Thats all designed for, to maximize the chances of that happening.
Marketing literally is applied psychology.


Probably because you didn’t go to Wharton.
Hey that’s Trump’s alma mater, ay-oooh!

Problem:
This is the exact same kind of shit being used to automate prioritize and execute military kill-chains.
Basically: Finda target, tell others about the target, assess nearby firepower capable of neutralizing the target, determine best course of action.
… all we have to do is cross that last step over into ‘and then execute that course of action’.
All the drone warfare in Ukraine?
EM jamming and literally hacking the things or their CnC systems is an effective counter, in certain situations.
So, how do you counter that?
One solution is keep an actual thin wire, like a TOW missile, connecting the operator and the drone. Gotta be a real long wire though.
Other solution?
Make the drone fully autonomous once its been locked in to a specific plan.
Don’t worry though, I’m sure Pete Hegseth will navigate this tightrope about as well as traffic stop line walk test.


No, you’re not missing anything.
They’re morons.
Thats our ruling elite; a bunch of fucking morons with egos and low self awareness at best, literally child raping and murdering pedophiles at worst.


Branding and marketing is just building a cult these days.


This is basically happening already with AI assisted surgeries.


I’ve got a suggestion for her:
Burn all your money and ids and property, become homeless.
That will humble you.


Yep.
These people are all fucking complete clowns.
It would be one thing if they were just evil, but they have such an inflated view of themselves that they have no self awareness.
Fucking corpos man.


There are two kinds of apologies.
Customary, and Genuine.
They’re describing a genuine apology.
You’re describing a customary apology.
Something like 15% to 20% of adult Americans are functionally illiterate, 2nd grade or lower reading ability.
The average adult American reads at the level of a 5th/6th grader, an 11 year old.
Yeah. We actually are just really dumb, on average.
We have literacy levels that are comparable to places far, far less economically developed or wealthy overall, or per capita than us.
But anyways yes, there will always be a bit thats still lost in… I guess you could say ‘cultural translation’.
Particularly idioms, hahah!
You think it’s literally impossible for wheelchair users to function to the point that a society created by and for wheelchair users would collapse without non-wheelchair users to look after them?
100% yes.
Buildings will need to be built, repaired, maintained.
Tons and tons of agriculture is still massively reliant on human beings doing things we still can’t figure out how to make robots do.
A wheelchair bound society would 100% need people to build the ramps and pathways for them.
As to the rest:
Oh, I don’t regularly run into who find my views on the terminology of the term disability to be wrong-headed.
You’re basically the only one.
I am doing my best to listen and tell you what I think of what you are saying, but apparently that is offensive to you.
Okey dokey!
Seems like you want to talk about this anymore, so, I will take my leave of this convo henceforth.
Wow.
I knew it was bad, didn’t know it was that bad.
FTFY
