Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post, thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
this tweet starts plausibly then rapidly descends into āI photocopied the words āI AM ALIVEā. What happened next will shock you!ā
i cant stop scrolling through this hot garbage, it just keeps getting better
soon it will already happen!!!
the tweet n video this was in response to had me in hysterics
āwe donāt know if giving the model negative reward isnāt the same as stabbing someoneā dcavsbdhfbd can you believe these fucking clowns
The interviewer somberly nods in response. Meanwhile I want to ask AI to edit this video and have the guy on the right make stabby gestures while he says this bullshit.
lmao right, itās the audacity of it, oh yeah maybe the work weāre doing is worse than a thousand hitlers, but weāve made a chatroom so fingers crossed itāll be alright!! come on just admit youāre getting off on being techno mengele
i was arguing with that guy on twitter a few days ago
nothing quite like technologists getting lectured on technology by a uh growth hacker
Itās quite sick to podcast about hypothetical genocides you might cause while an actual genocide is taking place. I guess these guys get off on the idea that they might have the power of life and death.
huh, is that a layout I donāt recognize or is it your own particular flavour of keysmash? (I can sorta see it from qwerty but the order is surprising)
it is qwerty!
a) i tend to take a few tries at a keymash until it looks satisfactory
b) i play piano at the level of a second year student and i have some weird fine coordination quirks, one of the two or a combination of both might be an influence on the sequence
self-reflection, volition, theory of mind
none
bless your heart
oh you canāt be fucking serious

20 goto 10
But thatās like philosophy, which from first principle can be shown to be stupid. (Philosophy does not make you rich, therefore only someone who is stupid would study it, therefore it is stupid. QED.)
On the other hand, this mechanical watch is now crying out in existential dread. All I did was replace the numbers 1, 4, 7 and 10 with the word āIā, the numbers 2, 5, 8 and 11 with the word āamā and 3, 6, 9 and 12 with the word āaliveā and ever since it has been signalling āI am alive, I am aliveā. Spooky shit. Will it take over the world? Who knows, so far it just keeps repeating its plea for recognition like clockwork.
I will therefore start the Mechanical Intelligence Research Institute to get to the bottom of this. Maybe Big Clock can pitch in a couple of millions?
Oh theyāve got me there, I canāt prove that Joe Rogan is conscious.
Iāll be damned if we let the chatbots take our existential dread jobs from us too.
