Was talking to a friend about the DoD's AI "Argus", and I think this is a very important point that needs to be made and why our government deploying an AI shouldn't just be swept under the rug. Him: "They’ve been monitoring all our phone calls/text messages/emails since before the modern digital age. Not to mention every device is required by law to have a built in back door for the NSA." Right, yet now it is effortless to parse the vast amount of data that has been collected. Before, you would have something happen, and then go and query the data held for motive or anything that would help a case. Now, with Argus, they are able to collect even more information, transcribe any audio in real time, log it, and build profiles to send to the proper agents without the manual labor of humans. For example: A man posts on Facebook that he feels like he wants to hurt someone. The AI then probes his data, sees he has recently had a conversation with his mother about being depressed or suicidal, and at the same time, it is building lists of any guns on record he may have access to. It also looks at his Google Maps search history to identify any places he has been looking at outside of his ordinary routine or perhaps soft targets. It compiles all that data in less than 5 minutes and sends a full report to agents to secure him. Pre-crime determined by AI is not a faraway fantasy but in progress. The collection of data and the ability to actually utilize the data collected in a cohesive way is an important distinction that needs to be made. AI can accomplish in 5 minutes what would take a full team of agents 3 weeks to do. It's important to understand that we live in a new world now. Things have radically changed, even if the masses are not fully aware of it currently. It's also important to highlight that the Department of Defense specifically mentions disinformation as one of the tasks Argus is trained to combat. The real regulations we need on AI are those that address the weaponization of AI by governments, both foreign and domestic. Not open source, or giving anyone one company a lead in the tech.

@TheLegalMindset @yoxics The infantilization of adults really needs to stop. It's going to hold back all of society if we let this become the norm.

@yoxics This logic is part of why modern corporate culture is so screwed up. Imagine being pulled into HR because you are in your 30’s, 40’s or even 50’s and being told it’s “inappropriate” to speak with your 19 year old co worker (even on strictly work topics), because of the age gap.

Valkyrae was cautious of doing a collab gaming stream with Yonna because she's 19 years old, saying although she's a woman it feels "inappropriate" since there is a huge age gap 😳

@NoiceGuy_ Honestly give @ArenaBreakoutPC a go, it's new season just dropped and is in a great spot to jump in. 🫡

Probably calling it there on Gray Zone for this update. Did everything I wanted to do and cleared all the POIs at least 3-4 times; the big ones dozens. I liked it. Interested in what comes next, hopefully Ground Zero 🫡

@Polymarket This is autistics 9/11

BREAKING: Health officials warn that dinosaur chicken nuggets sold at Walmart may contain high levels of lead.

@8teAPi I think there's a solid argument that diamonds are just one of the first. Automation and reduced costs in production, labor, and elemental extraction will see almost all things go this way over the next few decades.

This is going to happen to gold in about 20 years…

@Tectone The hate is purely performative. So sad. x.com/i/status/20336…

@LookAtMyMeat1 Immersion.

Explain to me how realism makes a game more fun I'll wait

@AutismCapital If the AI version is "slop" what is the human crafted one that objectively looks worse? Bethesda has been putting out dogshit character models for more than a decade, If shown both everyone would prefer the one on the right in a blind test. x.com/i/status/20336…

How is it even possible to hate on the new Nvidia DLSS 5? It can save you from…this. Now if you’re forced to play ugly half-assed AAA agendaslop you can at least have your GPU make it a little less terrible. This is a good thing. It’s noble.

@SmashJT x.com/i/status/20336…

I... I don't love this. Feels plastic-y. Certain instances are alright I guess... But meh. What do you guys think?

@hayasaka_aryan x.com/i/status/20336…

Imagine paying thousands of dollars for your game to look like the AI videos your grandma watches on tiktok

@OrdinaryGamers x.com/i/status/20336…

This looks like dogshit.

@Pirat_Nation x.com/i/status/20336…

The new DLSS 5 makes the characters look like a f-cking ChatGPT pic. No one asked for this

@saraliciousz_x @Pirat_Nation Actually. 💯 x.com/i/status/20336…

@LegacyKillaHD In what world are the zero texture doll looking slop characters Bethesda puts out worse than this? We have gone from six fingered monstrosities to photorealistic in less than 4 years with gen-ai images. Why in the world wouldn't we want them to cook?! Going to be goated in 2yrs.

DONT LET NVIDIA COOK

@Pirat_Nation Feel like we have lost the plot on the definition of the word "slop"

Nvidia DLSS 5 showcase: this new tech will allow you to make game characters look like AI slop

@JakeSucky Looks like a worse version of @ArenaBreakoutPC a lot of competition in the mil-sim extraction shooter, it's a niche space with many games fighting for a smaller/slow growing community. Wish them the best, hopefully it's more unique than what I've seen so far.

An exclusive look at some of the PvE in Beautiful Light extraction shooter, and a look at some of their foggy areas👀

Do you guys remember Perplexity? What was that all about?

Humans have such a beautifully diverse way of individualizing self-expression.

Not as weird as you may think. Systems like this will become the digital mental asylum for the undateable. I personally think it's a net positive long term. Also: 86% of adults 18 to 24 are unpartnered as of 2023. 51% of men under the age of 30 are unpartnered.

@AravSrinivas can you add pls

The most profound relationships are built on a contract to share truth, where both parties commit to helping each other awaken by honestly expressing themselves, even when it's difficult. These relationships thrive on authenticity and deep exploration, constantly examining and confronting all aspects and tendencies with sincerity and good faith. Anything less than this truth-centric bond, over-time begins to feel inadequate, making the journey towards any kind of real deep and everlasting bond but another myst in the hand of those who attempt to obtain it. The answer is, and will always be truth and a deep passion to love.
