Depends on where you go and what you do. Foreign investment is a problem in the big cities, small towns saw a surge in prices when everyone left the office for lower costs of living, but they've stabilized. It's not good, not horrible.
Speaking as a Canadian, if you feel like your personal safety and bodily autonomy is threatened in a way that can be improved by moving here, you are welcome.
It's called the Charter of RIGHTS and Freedoms. We absolutely have rights.
This is what makes Arrival so good. They don't want the best person for the job because she insists on being involved, they give the aliens nicknames immediately and everything goes to shit at the first excuse to start a war.
I'd like to get into how both me and OP are talking about how fast AI, not just LLMs, is scaling, and the potential it has across a variety of industries - most concerning to me is it's use by investment firms. But I need to go to the barber because I already have enough split hairs.
I do. I did get a little lost in the weeds with my point though, as I was talking in a more general sense about how AI is already powerful and dangerous - because AI safety is a subject in this thread.
That there are AI art generators that use licensed art and/or public domain and open licence images. People so deep in the "AI art is theft" shtick they don't even wanna hear it.
What we see in AI as an average consumer is like the RC hotwheels to a state of the art tank being used by big corps.
Just imagine that if an early LLM can fool an engineer into thinking it's sentient, what a state of the art system can do, one designed to predict the market, run propaganda bots on social media or straight up manufacture news stories with the footage to back it up.
The AI being used by big corporations is so advanced, it's one of the reasons countries have been trying to digitally isolate themselves. It's really not an if, it's a when.
The treatment gauntlet is brutal.
I've done illegal drugs before, but now I just microdose mushrooms in addition to my prescribed stims, which were legal the last place I lived, where my psyche knew about and okay'd it, but not here. They wanted me to come to the hospital daily to get my meds and take weekly piss tests.
I average about one alcoholic drink a week, so it's fucking ridiculous knowing people who get wasted three times a week who have no problems getting meds.
It's hard to get help because medical doctors are just people who won the birth lottery for financial stability and they're skilled at rote memorization. They don't have to be smart or better than average at their jobs.
I've seen these barbeque boats floating around tourist spots. They have a grill in the center, seats all around and a driver steers them while they cook and eat. So you get one of those, "accidentally" spill some lighter fluid all over and have a pack of hot dogs for a cover story. After that, it's as simple as lighting the grill and riding the flames to valhalla.
First we will form a committee that monitors and tracks posts for subject matter that may be political. There will be extensive lists of what is acceptable and what isn't, topics that will be debated at length every week.
Then, roughly two months into NoPo days, a tampon v pad debate between a childfree estate lawyer and a closeted scentsy sales rep with a breeder fetish will spill over into other instances, inflaming users to pick sides. Both women will become icons on their respective feminine hygiene products until they are both viciously doxed and swatted by opposing communities.
One week after, NoPo days will ban any words related to period protection and thus incite a backlash from lemmy feminists and allied persons.
The committee will be fediversally disbanded only ten weeks into NoPo days and it's members will be forced to make alt accounts in dishonor.
I'm an artist. Once you go method, you don't go back.
