signed up for the mecha unit and they're saying my mecha will form the balls and ass of the giant dude our team assembles. i asked if they could make me like the back or the foot or something and they said it's either balls and ass or i have to give back my signing bonus and join the infantry

look i was a big old fucking failure as a drinker, total lightweight, major embarrassment that i managed to become a drunk anyway. but in this one specific arena i was a grandmaster. no one smiles mischievously over a highball glass like i did

i don’t really miss drinking anymore for the most part. i did however just miss smiling mischievously at a good-looking stranger while holding a drink to my lips so much that for a moment i felt heartsick

I genuinely thought it already did this. Haven't people been like, leaving their families and stuff because they fall in love with their chatbots? Are you telling me that's all been PG? that's somehow even more sad

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.

I replayed WoL a bunch of times, and am still working through my second run through SoL. It's fun trying the different classes and making different choices where possible.

Visiting a friend and getting to see all the trinkets they've collected is always a DELIGHT!

Having to deep dive every fucking book I buy now is such a hassle. GenAI isn't making my work more efficient or productive. The opposite in fact. It's bogging everything down in tedious fact-checking that I didn't have to do before. And all so some asshole can rake in easy cash.

This is cool after the war on everything called “porn” by platforms and payment processors. A machine that stole all your words can generate and sell “erotica” but you can’t haaa

The thing is like if we want to fight back against prudery and sex negativity we also have to stop referring to stuff as 'gooner art' and accept that nsfw shit that reads as 'for the male gaze' has as much a right to exist as your favourite yaoi
