Let your fingers do the walking!

I’m sorry. I’m really TRYING to stop memeing.

I’M INTERFACED!!!

That’s because like NHS in this case, X-COM *lies *.

The real danger isn’t that they create an AGI… It’s that they convince enough people that they have. People have a propensity to believe stupid, impossible things even when they DON’T look plausible on the surface.

People doing something other than preemptively complaining about the candidate before they’re decided???

Where can I send my money???

Misread as “alf”. Still upvoting because good either way.

It’s depressing how much history is going to be lost. Entire movements have been launched on videos that are now private or removed for copyright violations, and now they are gone forever to future historians. Even looking for information or knowledge now… 80% of your results are YouTube videos. All of that knowledge will disappear forever, and it doesn’t even take a cataclysmic event - YouTube’s search is so actively hostile that even if you know exactly the name of the video you’re looking for, you will NOT find it unless it happens to already be algorithm aligned. YouTube is BY FAR a bigger danger to the throughline of history than ANY social media platform.

The simple solution is to just… stop using video so much. Video is riddled with problems as a long term human record, doesn’t scale, increases perpetually in requirements without actually improving quality of CONTENT, isn’t indexable or searchable, isn’t easily translated into multiple languages, not as easily shared, not as easy to back up… Text is not obsolete. It was our main method of information transmission for tens of thousands of years, and NOTHING will convince me that it should be replaced as the primary method.

Again, it’s a human problem. If humans accepted text and images again for the majority of information transfer, the problem would go away.

This was a study to show something we already knew to people who already knew it in the hopes of convincing people who already don’t trust scientific results that we already knew it. It’s the absolute closest possible thing to a total waste of time and effort I’ve ever seen.

The return of the king

Feels like more of a Diogenes era to me.

Yeah… the very fact this is posted as a youtube video reinforces the point of how far we are from this. The issue is, the enshitified internet is not a technology problem… it’s an education/people problem.

The internet will not be better until people are.

“Sir, those are pigs.”

You don’t NEED to be fixed if you complement each other’s crazy.

Those people can either be classified as “don’t exist” because they actively wiped out their own influence, or “as bad as the Republicans”, because they were comfortable allowing it to happen, but they certainly CAN’T be classified as “magic absolution of the American public as a whole for this series of events.”
