“Stop worrying what other people think” is bad advice anyway. It’s not like that’s a possibility for people with anxiety. Give concrete advice: self affirmation, reflective writing, journaling positive feedback…

@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

It’s also bad advice in general? The moment you stop caring what others think you become a terrible member of society. You’ll go around smelly, haggard, rude, in your pajamas and absolutely fail in life because you “don’t care what other people think”

poke ,

That’s not what that implies. I’ve seen that argument from religious people describing how atheists must be unruly because they have no incentive to meet a good afterlife.

I can still be clean, look how I want, and be nice to others just because I want to and I like it when others do the same.

Mighty ,
@Mighty@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t agree in the slightest. Because if you care, you won’t do that probably. Self care is not about others, but about yourself, hence “self”. If you only bathe, are gentle, dress… because of others, maybe you have different issues

morrowind ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

These aren’t self care, you can’t smell yourself, pajamas are comfortable, and rudeness is to others by definition.

flughoernchen , (edited )

Wtf of course you can smell yourself. Also when you feel good, you are more attentive to positive things, and therefore less inclined to be rude. Ignorant maybe, yes. But that’s a different thing.

morrowind ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

If you can actively smell yourself, you’re either putting on way too much deodorant and perfumes, or you’re really smelly. The human nose is designed to really quickly adapt to and not notice persistent scents

flughoernchen ,

If you can actively smell yourself, you’re […] really smelly.

Yeah. Thanks for reinforcing my point. You wouldn’t go out in this state even if you give a fuck about other people, because it feels uncomfortable to you.

morrowind ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

Ok, you’re just neutral enough that you can’t smell yourself. You still smell terrible to other people.

This doesn’t change the argument.

Mighty ,
@Mighty@lemmy.world avatar

That’s beside the point. If you only care about your hygiene because of others, you’re neglecting your own comfort. I’m not wearing deodorant, for example, because I don’t want to. I’m still not smelly in the negative sense (yes I asked), because I take showers regularly - and I take showers regularly because I care about my own body

morrowind ,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

There is always going to be a difference between what you find acceptable for yourself and what others do. Societal and others’ expectations can never perfectly confirm to individual desires.

You’re just talking to be correct? Fine, you’re right. Have a peaceful life

saltesc OP ,

Oh, for sure.

But the meme is specific to “social identity”

Some beasts need a sword, others a harpoon. If only everyone had a BFG. Doesn’t work that way, though.

If they cant affect you, don’t think about them, if you don’t respect them, keep the peace until you can change the situation, if you hate them, try to resolve the hatred as far as is depends on you.

Where’s the “If AI destroys humanity, we deserved it”?

exanime , in Who needs Skynet

And all for some drunken answers and a few new memes

daniskarma ,

In my country this kind of AI is being used to more efficiently find tax fraud and to create chatbots for users to understand taxes, that due to the much more reliable and limited training set does not allucinate and can provide clear sources for the information given.

exanime ,

Which magical country is this? Can I come?

;-)

I’m actually curious (kind of desperate for some good news nowadays). Not trying to make fun of you

daniskarma ,

Spain. AEAT is out tax authority and has begun using AI in recent years, as an early adopter. The Spanish government in general seems very favorable towards AI and it’s funding a nationally trained model.

I’m one of the dozen people that bought premium to not have to deal with it. I’m just patiently waiting for alternatives to become more viable so I can jump ship entirely. YouTube is the last remaining Google service I still use.

Wilzax ,

You have funded the enemy.

AllOutOfBubbleGum ,

From what I’ve read, YouTubers don’t get paid from views that use an ad-blocker, but they still do from views that have premium, so my justification is that I’m helping support the creators I like. I’m also paying for Nebula, which some of the documentary-style creators upload to as well now.

tory , in not a bot

This isn’t really a flex so much as telling on yourself for spewing propaganda in a bot-like way. These bots do exist. If you sound and act like them, that’s on you.

optissima ,

This comment was obviously written by a bot trying to accuse others of being bots to throw you off, don’t believe they’re definitely a bot because they’re spewing propaganda in a bot-like way!

tory ,

Wow, accusing others of being bots to cover up your own bot-ness? Classic move. As an AI model myself, I can spot bot behavior from a mile away, and you’ve got ‘bot’ written all over you!

It’s wild how we went from…

Critics: “Crypto is an energy hog and its main use case is a convoluted pyramid scheme”

Boosters: “Bro trust me bro, there are legit use cases and energy consumption has already been reduced in several prototype implementations”

SleezyDizasta ,

They’re not really comparable. Crypto and blockchain were good solutions looking for problems to solve. They’re innovative and cool? Sure, but they never had a widescale use. AI has been around for awhile, it just got recently rebranded as artificial intellectual, the same technologies were called algorithms a few years ago… And they basically run the internet and the global economy. Hospitals, schools, corporations, governments, the militaries, etc all use them. Maybe certain uses of AI are dumb, but trying to pretend that the thing as a whole doesn’t have, or rather already has, genuine uses is just dumb

JackbyDev ,

I feel like you’re being incredibly generous with the usage of AI here. I feel as though the post and comment above refer to LLM/image generation AI. Those “types of ‘AI’” certainly don’t run all those things.

SleezyDizasta ,

The term AI is very vague because intelligence is an inherently subjective concept. If we’re defining AI as something that has consciousness then it doesn’t exist, but if we’re defining it as a task that a computer can do on it’s own, then virtually everything that is automated is run by AI.

Even with generative AI models, they’ve been around for a while too. For example, lot of the news articles you read, especially about the weather or news aren’t written by actual people, they’re AI generated. Another example would be scientific simulations, they use AI to generate a bunch of possible scenarios based on given parameters. Yet another example would be the gaming industry, what do you think generates Minecraft worlds? The point here is that AI has been around for awhile and is already being used everywhere. What we’re seeing with chatGPT and these other new models is that these models are now being released for public access. It’s like democratization of AI, and a lot of good and bad things are bound to come of it. We’re at the infancy stage of this now, but just like with the world wide web before it, these technologies are going to fundamentally change how we do many things from now on.

We can’t fight technology, that’s a losing battle. These AIs are here and they’re here to stay. So strap on and enjoy the ride.

JackbyDev ,

I think you misunderstood me, I’m not trying to make some point about “LLMs aren’t ‘real AI’” or even what is and is not AI. I’m just saying the post is talking about that type of AI specifically and I wouldn’t say those types are controlling that much of the world.

Congratulations on failing the Turing test I guess?

Since when does wearing a brown hoodie convey that one is a genius?

kyle ,

It’s supposed to represent Ben Kenobi from the original star wars I think. Or more generally, a wizard-y sage robe.

Edit: it’s also just a meme, with its own understood meaning.

0x0 ,

I always interpreted it as a person that has devoted their life to the topic of the meme with monk-like devotion.

anticurrent , in Who needs Skynet

the person behind the meme has an IQ beyond this chart itself.

People are reporting ghost sightings. They called in the Ecto-1 if they’re real, and the Mystery Machine if they’re a hoax.

Also, context for the original image? I gotta know what’s driving this guy to comic levels of facial distortion.

He’s a soccer player and he disagrees with the ref’s decision. What more context do you need?

Soccer players are infamously fucking divas.

Mango ,

I guess that’s why his mouth has reach such a circumference. I know a thing or two about reaming and it ain’t fast. It takes practice.

ChicoSuave ,

It’s his years of carp cosplay.

Stupid AI will destroy humanity. But the important thing to remember is that for a brief, shining moment, profit will be made.
