AI slop.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Lamar wants to have children with his girlfriend. The problem? She’s entirely AIEnglish
23·2 months agoHonestly disturbing and fascinating at the same time. People will bond with anything, yet some will dehumanize real people that are different. Can understand the temptation of a perfect partner, but this always-yes enabling chat bots are toxic. It would be one thing if these were true AI’s in the fully sentient/sapient sense, but this is just self-delusion.
Another reason I hate how the term AI has been co-opted by tech bros, using the term to increase sales, poisoning the true meaning.

24·2 months agoMission accomplished, we got rid of those pesky government regulations that (checks notes) protect Americans from fraud and financial shenanigans. A win for the

politics @lemmy.world•Stephen Miller says undocumented immigrants ‘had no due process entering the country’ and don’t deserve it in removal
3·2 months agoYou would be right, if the Republican administration actually followed rule of law. How many major court cases have they lost, yet continued doing that they were sued/charged over? I’ve lost count. The laws are not being Enforced, because the enforcement is the task of the Executive branch, i.e. the presidency and departments (FBI, NSA, DOD, DHS, etc). In previous administrations, the non partisan federal employees would enforce the law with either party in the Whitehouse, but with this current Republican administration and it’s purge of federal workforce and replacing non-partisan positions with political appointees, as explicitly called for in Project 2025.

politics @lemmy.world•Elon Musk: The FDNY veteran who worked 9/11 and Covid isn’t qualified to lead the department
43·2 months agoCan confirm first hand the FSD is actually working decently, my musk-fanboy brother-in-law showed it off at Christmas. Kudos to the engineers involved, must be easier when muskrat is distracted so they can actually get work done. Still needs proper regulation and Musk out before I’d purchase one though.
IIRC, Tesla and SpaceX had people dedicated to distracting/minding him so they could get actual work done. Can’t find source at moment, if anyone can link I’d appreciate it.

Though I think he would care about competency in the field of ‘kissing his ass’ among sycophants and those that use him.

politics @lemmy.world•‘REPORT TO WORK IMMEDIATELY’: Trump threatens to replace absent air traffic controllers with ‘true Patriots’
1·4 months agoCan easily believe that, though can not confirm.
So much has happened, and this regime is not even a year old. . .
“May you live interesting times” is a curse we are all suffering through.

91·4 months agoI just. . . I don’t understand the internal logic. How can one get the cause-effect relationship so mixed up. . .
I mean I know the answer, fox news and similar propaganda, but the dichotomy hurts my brain.

politics @lemmy.world•‘REPORT TO WORK IMMEDIATELY’: Trump threatens to replace absent air traffic controllers with ‘true Patriots’
173·4 months agoThe training and requirements to be an ATC are insane, in a extremely thorough way. I highly doubt the Republican administration would be able to find competent replacements among their ‘patriots’.
That said, I doubt further that they would actually care and not just tell people to eat cake, or just privatize the ATC network to some billionaire.

10·4 months agoUnfortunately, Budapest is in Hungary, i.e. Putin fan Orbin’s country.
It absolutely does, cogs in the meat grinder.
That said, It brings everyone down to that level.
With guns, the mightiest general can still be killed by a lucky private. In most fantasy worlds, that would be near impossible for a basic untrained person to be a threat to a skilled warrior or mage.
And you are right, in the US there are an insane amount of gun deaths from murder, suicides, and accidents. Too many of us treat them like toys or emotional support Glocks, use them to be their masculinity.







Good, fuck around find out. They don’t want to represent and protect their electors, they shouldn’t win elections.
