Checks to see if Baidu is doing AI…yes, they are. How shocking.

If we’re not making money then they’ll have no customers or profits.

It's not that we don't have a climate crisis. We do, and I'm not an advocate for AI. It's just...mankind. It's what I think is going to happen, "wether we like it or not".

Wether we like it or not AI is here to stay, and in 20-30 years, it’ll be as embedded in our lives as computers and smartphones are now.

If you vote for a party that does not support Universal Basic income, that does not make you evil. But if that party also supports killing black people, and you vote for it soley because of Universal Basic income even though it comes with the side-effect of killing black people, you are absolutely evil.

It's election season, so get used to this. Other countries have learned how to divide us using social media, not to mention the years of experience Fox New and Co. have in doing just that. On top of it, we now have AI generated posts to contend with. It's not getting better anytime soon...personally, I just ignore any post that sounds like it's inflammatory (which sadly are almost all political posts, and everything Musk).

I honestly can’t understand why anyone would be OK with it. I think our society has been getting trained to just accept whatever they throw at us. “Buying” something no longer means fully owning it, and I’m not OK with that, I just have to live with it.

I disagree - definitely not OK by me, though likely legal. People bought this because they wanted and paid extra for an internet connected device, and a regular thermostat is not that. I mean, would you be OK if your TV manufacturer disabled the screen and streamed radio stations instead?

Not sure if this has anything to do with it, or even if it’s real, but this post is still interesting:

I totally agree with you about our humanity. And unfortunately, as part of humanity, if we don’t pursue military AI, our adversaries will.

Ask yourself some questions about the situation, and give yourself honest answers.

  • Can I do anything about it right now?
  • Might I be able to do something about it when I’m better?
  • Could I spend some time thinking of potential temporary solutions while I wait, instead of spending that time worrying?
  • Is it happening now, or do I have time to come up with something?
  • If I think I can’t do anything about it, does worrying help the situation or make it worse?

These are sample questions. Ask yourself about specific concerns that worry you. Sometimes, the responses will require follow-up questions. Point is to end pointless worrying and start looking at the problem logically and realistically, without the emotion clouding your thinking.
