@PP69153735 @the_hoch @ReubenR80027912 I think the issue is more that you simply underestimate what a “6th grade reading level” is. 6th graders can read novel-length books. Written for teens obviously, but they can read them.

@the_hoch @ReubenR80027912 You do need to be able to read in order to stock groceries. 30 years ago a stocker would have to stock a can of peas. Nowadays they have to stock several varieties of peas. No Salt. Low Salt. Ect. You dont just stock AIM toothpaste anymore. You stock 25 versions

I refuse to believe that most Americans can not read at a 7th grade level
If this is “true” then it means we are simply measuring literacy incorrectly; 163M Americans are actively employed
Can your 6th grader read an employment contract? Read heavy machinery instructions?

If you have the basic skills to participate in the discourse at all — like you can read and comprehend a New York Times article in order to complain about it — you’re in a weird, out of touch, elite bubble. slowboring.com/p/in-defense-o…

@alwaysadblock @ReubenR80027912 @RichardHanania They likely can but that would require effort so they dont. This just feels like path of least resistance why read contracts when AI can do it for you?

@AlexanderPayton But of course, every single US ally needs to play the role of Donald Trump Tard Wrangler where they let him say stupid shit with no pushback, otherwise they’re “not real allies” because the US is a very serious nation with a very serious leader.
English
@AlexanderPayton Your reality, in which the US is able to say stupid shit with absolutely 0 pushback by its allies, is legitimately retarded.
Of course they reacted the way they did. Had they not, you’d’ve probably said that it was a sign of weakness that they did nothing.
English
@AlexanderPayton @Alicoh1 So military force for me, but not for thee. And if thee uses military force, even as a preventative measure, it’s treacherous. But not when I constantly push towards political annexation of your land.
English
We shouldn’t take military force off the table. We shouldn’t tell anyone, even Europe, the conditions under which we would use military force. And, it would still be completely unreasonable, bordering on treacherous, for the Europeans to think we would use military force just to annex the island outside of WWIII.

@zhkgi @tsantihero13 @adonis_singh If there is a shockwave effect in which the current rate of funding slows drastically, would that affect the ability to train more advanced AI platforms? Do you see that happening in the future?
English
@take_mandoru @tsantihero13 @adonis_singh You’re objectively wrong. Video streaming uses far more data and energy per hour than generative AI queries. You’re confusing the training of AI with the use of AI.
Running AI isn’t data or energy intensive, training AI is though.
millions pay for access to gen AI models
English
do these people think the tech will just be uninvented?
bONGO 🏝️@wariocolosseum
the death of generative ai has finally started and its gonna be so unbelievably satisfying to watch it all burn
English
@zhkgi @tsantihero13 @adonis_singh I said “no demand” as an example. I don’t believe there will be 0 demand for gen AI lmfao calm down.
My question, at its core, is essentially “Will gen AI platforms cont. at this pace with a decrease in user base/funding?”
You said yes, and explained. End of convo.
English
@take_mandoru @tsantihero13 @adonis_singh Why do you think there’ll be no demand for AI? Have you ever used it properly? Like you’ve got to be just a full Luddite to not be able to understand why people use it lol

“Let’s now collectively shame these healthy young men with guns for being young men with guns. This is the only way that we—the femme, old, weak, obese, gay, etc—maintain our smothering rule by social shaming. Act like it’s obvious they’re beneath us. Catty inertia’s all we have”

@zhkgi @tsantihero13 @adonis_singh “So does everything on the Internet” but that still requires funding. If there’s no demand, there’s no funding, and gen AI needs a lot more data than normal internet traffic. Equating it to the internet here just doesn’t make sense to me.
English
@take_mandoru @tsantihero13 @adonis_singh So does everything on the internet. There is utility in the product, people will pay for it, even if the “funding” dries up. The main data centre costs right now are for training. That can be scaled back while retaining the same existing product.

@kittiesbibi @tragic_endings_ You use the term “moid” and are malding that a nonbinary person prefers d over v. Some of the most embarrassing shit ever.
English
@tragic_endings_ you called a woman stupid for simply wearing a outfit you didn't like on her birthday, constantly side with misogynist moids and said vaginas are objectively less attractive than dicks
English
Whenever ppl talk about leftist men being sexist fo right wing women its mostly very petty stuff like calling Bari Weiss ugly
Its never like the stuff right wingers do when they wish rape on women or sat they are inferior
Eve@tinglespoon
leftist men love to be like "im allowed to be misogynistic to this woman i think is annoying and anyone defending her is setting gay people and women back 70000 years"
English
@zhkgi @tsantihero13 @adonis_singh Doesn’t Gen AI still require a ton of data centers to keep running? If the funding dries up, would they still be able to continue running? Genuinely asking btw, seems like people aren’t mentioning that
English
@tsantihero13 @adonis_singh 3D TVs never had practical utility. Not like the internet or gen AI
English
@rayneodenn @neocheugyist @breakingbaht @ellad3vi any person with a functioning brain would know exactly why this chick made her bio like this. anyone who doesn’t (or who freaks out about it) is being intentionally filtered. it’s not hard at all to understand lmfao
English
@neocheugyist @breakingbaht @ellad3vi You realize that not just “maga retards” see something like that as a red flag? Any normal person would also see that bio and run
English
this is clearly to scare men like you away. like the frogs that are really brightly colored to warn predators not to eat them

@FatDrunkyStupid @CartoonsHateHer Buying things for your gf/wife is normal AND her running around with a credit card wand is fuckin weird. Not hard to type out.
English
@FatDrunkyStupid @CartoonsHateHer Right? This is a horrifically simplistic way of describing that whole nontroversy. People seem physically incapable of discussing things like human beings on here.

Thinking of covering the fact that men giving women playful presents is now a form of "self infantilization" but I fear this will be dismissed as "insane people saying things" because it is

@owobitual @RedBreadClub @missejlee @tragic_endings_ D4vd is literally under investigation right now dude. Do you think men are freely able to murder people with 0 consequences or something? Furthermore, do you think people should be locked up with no investigation whatsoever?
English
@RedBreadClub @missejlee @tragic_endings_ When its actually about: men do whatever they want for free, while women do not
English
Using the murder of a little girl as a cudgel with which to defend your favourite singer from mild criticism is really weird and gross
English
@owobitual @ggukthewrld @tragic_endings_ Because, surprise surprise, “The Court Of Public Opinion” does not dictate the law or how these types of investigations are handled.
How is this hard to understand?
English
@ggukthewrld @tragic_endings_ Why's he not in prison, then?
English
@missejlee @sleppsleepy @tragic_endings_ What actual consequences is she actually facing beyond being made fun of on social media
English
@sleppsleepy @tragic_endings_ She’s a celebrity in the public eye she can be criticised I’m pretty sure. I was just making the point that her male counterparts do way worse but she seems to face more consequences for less.
English
@khris409 It’s a tough rope to cross because Messiah at its core is not action focused whatsoever. Villeneuve is at his best when he has some action scenes to chew on but Messiah has like three actual points where any action happens. Beyond that, it’s mainly philosophical introspection.
English
@khris409 I actually kinda agree. Not that Messiah is a bad book or anything, but that Villeneuve needs to take extra care in both adapting a story to please fans of the series while also appealing to the normal movie-going audience
English
just stfu pls.
The Hollywood Reporter@THR
#Dune3 faces a major challenge, as the next book in the series isn’t considered particularly strong. This isn’t to predict the film will definitely be weaker or radically different. But Denis Villeneuve and his co-writers arguably need to show a level of adaptive flexibility and creativity beyond what they have done so far in order to elevate it to a place where it feels like a 'Return of the King' rather than a 'Godfather Part III.' hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n…
