Except doing drugs is illegal, whereas using AI is not. Fairly important distinction.
Basically a deer with a human face. Despite probably being some sort of magical nature spirit, his interests are primarily in technology and politics and science fiction.
Spent many years on Reddit before joining the Threadiverse as well.

Need to make it sound apocalyptic somehow to draw the clicks.


First they’ll declare a ceasefire, then commence bombing.


Like an automated version of the Be My Eyes app.


No, again, this is not what I was addressing. I responded to a comment saying these would only be of interest to “predators”. You yourself say that you get how they can be helpful, that’s all I was saying too. All the rest of this is arguments that are being imagined.


The upvote/downvote thing mostly indicates whether a comment or post agrees with the current popular opinion of the social bubble it’s found inside. I’ve said the same thing in different places and see quite different ratios. It’s not very useful for analyzing the content itself, it just tells you what the room thinks of it.


What “weight”? I think you’re imagining an argument I’m not actually making.


Not what I was addressing. I was addressing a comment that said “only predators buy those glasses” by pointing out an obvious alternative motivation.


Or people with a bad memory for faces and names, who find one of the most harrowing social situations to be when someone walks up to them and says “hey, how you doing?” With no recollection of who this person is or how they know you.


How would bots be kept out of it?


Tomorrow: “President Trump accuses the Democratic Party of being in support of illegal immigration, attempts to shut down the bank accounts of all members.”


The best part of DS9’s Section 31 was that Section 31 knew they were the bad guys too.


Okay, he’s a leader of a large religion.
That still doesn’t give him any special knowledge or authority regarding AI.


Specifically sex abuse within the church.


They might be surprised to learn that Ukraine has to agree to end the war before it’ll actually end.


Lots of religions have one of those.


He’s a religious leader, what does he have to do with the tech industry?


I think this would depend on the house being designed for this in the first place. A long time back I recall reading about how non-flow-through houses would endure high winds in a hurricane or tornado until one of the windows broke, at which point the hole in the house allowed the wind to ram air in (or suck air out depending on which way the hole was facing) and the whole house would disintegrate.
If my recollection is correct then there might be a slight benefit in the house-wrapping idea in that it might do a bit to prevent a hole like that from being taken advantage of. But only a slight benefit. Probably better to just do the traditional nailing of plywood over windows and such.

Being anti-AI makes one an outcast? Come visit the Fediverse or Reddit bubbles and say a few things favorable to AI and see how that goes.
Jorge Gutierrez just backed out of making a TV series using AI because of threats against his wife and child. Spare me the victim narrative.
If they can find Randy Quaid then at least we’ll know he’s still alive.
