"you aren't allowed to feel bad because other people have it worse"
and then in the same breath, say
"stop worrying about things that are outside of your control"
aren't these two thoughts are completely antithetical to one another

CEOs thought that "people would eventually get over it and accept it" and now they're shitting their pants realizing that the "absolutely no AI involvement in any capacity" crowd is only growing, not shrinking.

The networks were afraid not to run Trump because they assumed he would use his office to punish them if they didn’t. The irony is that this is what Biden was warning about, a warning they chose not to share with America.
You'll remember that when Biden delivered an address in 2022, networks refused to air it because they said it was "political" www.washingtonpost.com/media/2022/0...
As Biden warned about democracy’s collapse, TV networks aired reruns
Broadcasters NBC, CBS and ABC usually air presidential prime-time addresses live. But they found Biden's Philadelphia speech more "political" than newsworthy.

Man I hate the entire video game development industry lol, it has such a fucking "bro" culture even in ostensibly "good" studios that people heap on praise for.
The entire industry is rotten to the core I swear, I feel like I can't trust any developers that aren't tiny teams at this point.

Again I say: how fucking interesting that remote work technology is bad and not worth adopting despite all research pointing to productivity gains, but genAI which offers NOTHING is so important to adopt and force on people who have no use for it despite all the horrible things genAI does

the faux-AI evangelists see the artistic process as a race to get to a finished product, instead of something valuable in itself. the process is where you develop those skills you don't have yet, it cannot be skipped, it is where the art happens
I have grown to believe that excessive wealth does something to your brain that is analogous to a serious head injury

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone
- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware
but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

this might be one of the best videos i’ve seen all year and also one of the most terrifying things i’ve ever witnessed in my entire life
in my humble moderate opinion i think sam altman should be tried at the hague and everyone at openAI should be tried as an accessory

Reminder that outdoor cats have shorter lifespans & are a threat to local ecosystems, because they contribute to the extinction of small wildlife.
People are letting cats freeroam as a direct result of the harmful stereotypes portrayed in media, leading to horrible neglect of millions of cats.

this was super funny and dunkworthy until I realized this person works at bsky
an unfortunate irony about this post - and even if you are the staunchest anti-ai critic out there, i think you’d agree - is that some of the most bigoted things are being said to respond to this. copy/pasting phrasing and terminology used by bigots but replacing “dna” with “bits” doesn’t make it ok
i’m completely serious when i say that much of the dismissive ai discourse on here fires the bigotry neuron
