I’ll delete my replies when I’ve been eating too many crayons that evening and the reply ended up being dumb as dog shit…

Though, I’d consider deleting my posts now because AI is scouring this place and training on it I almost guarantee.

Only the uneducated don’t see AI “taking off” right now.

Every idiot who says this thinks that ChatGPT encompasses all of “AI”. They’re the same people who didn’t get internet in their household until 2010.

Because Microsoft is an anticompetitive market capturing trash heap of a company. They didn’t do Xbox because of a love for games, they did it to capture market share and it shows.

I love that Xbox is dying. The only thing better would be if Sega announced they were making consoles again.

Oh man, I worked at a hotel during overnight shift a few years ago, and the head desk lady would go apeshit if I turned the front lobby TV to CNN. She would throw the most childish fit you could imagine, it was so fun to poke at her. Every morning, even after she told me never to change the TV again, I’d change it. She’d hide the remote, I’d bring my own. She tried taping over the IR sensor, so I’d manually change it with the buttons on the side.

She died of cancer a few years after the hotel was turned into a nursing home.

I use the kit-built one of these: https://www.tvbgone.com/shop/ – They gave a bunch of them away at the end of a makefaire I was a part of years ago.

Joke’s on you, I was already stupid to begin with.

Yes, it can be enough to do this.

Get on Reddit at work? If you share any public internet with literally ANY other Reddit troll who’s been banned, they just simply saw your IP address matched, and banned you because of that connection.

If you continue going to the buffet with shit, that’s on you. There are plenty of them without shit. You’re just a vegan luddite at this point. You don’t wanna eat animals, so you expect everyone around you to also not eat animals because it’s against your beliefs.

Sorry. Not how the world works. AI is here to stay because it’s useful to people. Whine and bitch and moan all you want, it’s not going away.

You have the ability to choose an insurance company that doesn’t use those things. Hell, you even have the ability to self-insure in most states with enough collateral. Nothing is being forced on you. Hell - you EVEN have the ability to hire an in-person insurance agent – did you know that?

Sure, it’s not as cheap - but you’ve always been able to do this. You are not being forced like you claim, your own ignorance is what betrays you to the options you have available.

And what other people do with their ingestion of AI is their business, not yours.

Without AI, all of the things you say they are doing WITH AI were already possible. They could ALREADY spy on employees. They could ALREADY lie and manipulate people. All AI does is make it happen on a wider scale.

So instead of attacking “AI” “AI” “AI”…why not attack the things that are being done wrong, rather than the fact that it’s AI?

Nobody is forcing you to do anything by their use of AI. You don’t have a right to TikTok not having things made with AI because you have the freedom to simply not use TikTok. Just as an example.

No, because you use the uppermost-bound of the statement. Your opinion doesn’t take precident as the opinion above it (polluting the river) already violates the rights of others. Your opinion literally is the same as mine. That the person polluting the river (their opinion being they can) - shouldn’t be able to use that opinion to affect others. You’re saying the same as I am, but focused on the wrong part.

Like with religion – You’re free to believe whatever you want to believe. That you’re not allowed to have abortions, etc.

But the moment YOUR belief, says that I can’t have an abortion, is when it becomes invalid, because it’s not MY belief. I don’t have to abide by YOUR belief/opinion on the matter. Your opinions don’t dictate my actions.

Now, you can control your actions - by, say - not buying from me. You control your actions, so while you can’t force companies not to AI, there’s nothing forcing you to buy from them when you are aware of its use. You can’t stop them from using it because you don’t like it though. Your opinion of it being good/bad, or if they can/should/shouldn’t use it matters absolutely none.

Yeah, that’s what I thought.

Is that because you can’t pinpoint it yourself? There’s a reason that you can’t. It’s because no contradiction exists.

Have you thought about this for more than 2 seconds?

Have YOU? - Your example is clearly them violating the rights of others. This isn’t some paradox point of view or the “got ya!” moment that you think it is.

Oh no, people are assaulting me with their different opinions!

No - you can’t say no. People have a right to use AI in their productions, and your opinion cannot force them to do otherwise.

As with anything - the moment your opinion starts to dictate other people’s lives, it becomes invalid.
