i saw the most cromulent minds of my generation destroyed by police violence, starving, cold, dragged through liberal streets at dawn, while craptacular tech bros embiggened hollow eyed dynamos, sat smoking in the supernatural darkness of VR, contemplating generative saxamaphones

we've mitigated the serious mental health issues, now to give people access to unlimited generative pornography

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

Are women bourgeois?

Ari: WELL I AM

Transsexualism as we conceive of it in America is bourgeois, the product of a society that venerates the freedom of an individual to choose. There is no designer vagina under communism, I'm sorry.

I find it extremely powerful that in a time of immense transphobia everywhere, more people are coming out as trans than ever before.

the goal of transphobes is to erase us from reality and even as they appear to be winning in this moment they’re only ever pushing back the tide.

he gave us root access to every other student's pc. he didn't tell us not to use it, but he would drop you a letter grade *if* you caused a problem, and he could prove it was you

i took a redhat class with him, and he was learning php with us, about 1 week ahead in the curriculum

i like what katie is saying

in highschool i had a teacher who taught me the phrases "learned helplessness" and "learn by doing"

in a web design class, he told us "first, try to figure it out, then google it. then ask your neighbor. then the other one. then come find me. i'm already busy helping."

Katie Tightpussy, Editor-In-Chief @katie.bzky.team · 12d

i was talking about it with a friend earlier trying to clarify my thoughts because i often say learned helplessness is a disease which i feel like is a core part of my politics in that to me the human condition is action, growth, and change, so stagnation is self-dehumanization, which is very bad!
