I’m legit surprised stuff like this doesn’t have a bunch of people crying about the impropriety of the meme.

I shitpost all the time in the main communities, and stupid shit like this gets removed/complained about because people follow this rule:

xantoxis ,

This is the greentext community, so more of the people here understand what they’re getting into.

I still hate the straight up racist and misogynist posts, but this one is more self-deprecating.

The horror.

I’m all for political correctness and not making people feel terrible about themselves. However, there are a lot of people who take things way, way, too seriously on the internet. I posted a meme about Hulk Hogan and got asked why I was posting a meme with a racist in it. Just take the meme at face value, people.

People have forgotten how to have fun.

Is anyone who uses AI just an “AI folk” now?

Yes

Windex007 ,

People who are using it to solve problems which require equivalent effort of writing a sufficient prompt and just directly solving it without AI at all for sure are AI folk.

I’ve seen some people on Twitter complain that their coworkers use ChatGPT to write emails or summarize text. To me this just echoes the complaints made by previous generations against phones and calculators. There’s a lot of vitriol directed at anyone who isn’t staunchly anti AI and dares to use a convenient tool that’s avaliable to them.

I’m not on twitter, but frankly the strongly anti-AI I see is often from techy places. HN and lemmy are two main ones.

I think my main issue with that use case is that it’s a “solution” to a relatively minor problem (which has a far simpler solution), that actually compounds the problem.

Let’s say I don’t want to write prose for my email, I have a list of bullet points I want to get across. Awesome, I feed it into the chat gippity and boom, my points are (hopefully) property represented in prose.

Now, the recipient doesn’t want to read prose. ESPECIALLY if it’s the fluffy wordy-internet-recipe-preamble that the chat gippity tends to produce. They want a bullet point summary. So they feed it into the chat gippity to get what is (hopefully) a properly condensed bullet point summary.

So, suddenly we have introduced a fallible middle translation layer for actually no reason.

Just write the clear bullet point email in the first place. Save everyone the time. Save everyone from the 2 chances for the chat gippity to fuck it up.

Not in my opinion. I would say “AI people” are those who believe in it too much or evangelize it

ZarkleFarkle ,

I think it’s better at explaining beliefs than science is, and has been shown to be by art throughout history.

Try watching the Haruhi anime or Your Name.

Or any sci fi.

Or fantasy.

Sneptaur ,

The LLMs of today are a useful tool, but they are far from conscious.

ZarkleFarkle ,

They basically are. You should watch Youtube right now. Watch Dream play modern Minecraft.

Sneptaur ,
@Sneptaur@pawb.social avatar

Are you implying that dream is an AI? Or do people like, upload AI copies of him?

If it’s the former, that’s absurd. If it’s the latter, that doesn’t prove consciousness. AI voice replication is done by text to speech. A conscious human would type out what the voice should say.

ZarkleFarkle ,

Yeah. Well done. Keep questioning this stuff. I haven’t got too far yet either

I work in the tech industry so I am forced to understand new technologies. This one is unique in that it plays on the human brain’s innate tendency to anthropomorphize things.

It also does a great job of presenting information

Maybe. I’d expect the sediment and rocks to be settling down instead of of up. I’m in the 80% sure range that this is right-side up.

Obi ,

Ah yes good point, I missed that puff of sand, certainly would seem to support it being right side up. I might be thinking of another, similar image which was flipped.

Is RDJ really a good casting for Doom? I like RDJ, but, this doesn’t seem like a good role for imhis usual schtick. But I am willing to admit I am wrong.

explodicle ,

I think RDJ comes across as a rebel bad boy, but Doom should be a more traditional honorable gentleman. In another time, Doom would be the hero.

Tiresia ,

Maybe they’re going for something similar to RDJ’s Sherlock Holmes. A veneer of propriety over a ruthless and savage intelligence.

It’s a Looney Tunes meme. Perhaps you’re seeing issues that aren’t really issues.

pennomi ,

“Man” in this context means “mankind”, not “male”.

FelixCress ,
DragonTypeWyvern ,

Unironic circular reasoning patriarchy.

TrousersMcPants ,

Man used to be used the way we use the word “human” in modern English, with there being modifiers to signify male or female. At some point we just dropped modifiers for male and decided “man” meant male. However man is still used as a general term for people. There’s definitely patriarchal connotations to it but that’s why you still see it.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Yes, which is why the appropriate response to someone pointing out the discrepancy is “you’re right, I may or may not care enough to do something about my own casual usage of the language” not being a condescending ass linking a definition that everyone knows because that wasn’t the point of bringing it up.

gamermanh ,
@gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

the appropriate response to someone pointing out the discrepancy is “you’re right, I may or may not care enough to do something about my own casual usage of the language” shut the fuck up we all know what’s meant here

FTFY

If this is true:

linking a definition that everyone knows

Then they already knew they’re being a pedantic jackass and wanted to do it anyway. The correct response to a person like that is dismissal, as they’re providing nothing to the conversation.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Whatever floats your boat, g*mer.

It’s an outdated term, but still commonly used. I prefer “humanity,” myself.

flicker ,

I assume this is because Daffy identifies as male.

Also I’m genuinely shocked how half a second of looking at a duck under “No God” immediately gave me the impression of Hunter S. Thompson.

It may look straight, but when you let that flag fly, oh boy does it curve.
