If you call them PanoPods you can probably get venture capital funding and then just go buy a train and paint it with a cool design.

Maybe there should be four buttons:

  • Upvote-good comment
  • Upvote-agree
  • Downvote-disagree
  • Downvote-unhelpful/rude

Which could be used for more filtering options.

Or maybe a separate agreement/disagree metric. I wouldn't mind seeing the consensus on a topic separate from the measure of usefulness.

It's just that it's boring. I'd rather have an interesting debate. Downvoting everything you simply disagree with just leads to groupthink forums.

And then getting downvoted by people who just disagree with your opinion. I'm one of the Reddit refugees so I don't know if we brought that with us or Lemmy was like that before but it's sad to see.

He's the male Gwyneth Paltrow selling brain pills instead of Goop. He promotes alt-right and far-right conspiracies. He told people not to get the COVID vaccine. If he just interviewed people -- even people from all sides -- I'd be fine with it. Problem is he promotes dangerous conspiracies and usually ignores fact checking. He's using his influence and authority to do harm. And worst of all, I think he just does it for the ratings.

Sure, but on a per delivery basis that should be like $1.00? And yes, they need to make a profit, so the fee should be $1.10?

The current stuff is smoke and mirrors and not intelligent in any meaningful sense, but that doesn't mean it isn't dangerous. It doesn't have to be robots with guns to screw over people. Just imagine trying to get PharmaGPT to let you refill your meds, or having to deal with BankGPT trying to figure out why it transfered your rent payment twice. And companies are sure as hell thinking about using this stuff to get rid of human decisionmakers.

You're not supposed to watch it sober.
