Eyes ward off predators because they make the creature look like a big predator, so that's very much the point of those markings.

People are being miseducated about what they can achieve by charlatans looking to make a quick buck before the hype bubble implodes, and the tech is helping cook the planet.

It's not "fine".

Which is also not a real use-case. Like, just check your work, you don't need a tool for that.

Hell I don't even use spell-check because it's just distracting, and it's a fundamentally wrong way to think about language.

I don't remember those being particularly emphasised traits of his.

That sounds exhausting to me.

Like seriously what busywork is so routine and so basic that you need an AI to do it but couldn't make a template for it? And how is it less work to read what it gave you to check for errors? That's always the harder part of coding in my experience.

I would love to know the specifics of where this supposedly saves time.

I suspect the energy you're putting into learning this tool could go into becoming a better typist, and you wouldn't need to cook the planet to do it.

"Secure" doesn't just mean "defend" or "safeguard". "Secure" also means "capture", so it implies you need to go out and get it, like with invasions or something maybe, idk. It's a lot less passive.

"Existence" means both "survival" and "prosperity". It implies that both their existence is under threat, while creating the idea that they might be able to make it better. Maybe they could, idk, make america great again, trying to return to some mythical prelapsarian era by beating back the eternal threat.

"A future" does this too, implying they may not have a future at all.

And talking about the "children" brings up the concept of making new people, evoking the idea that non-white races are out-breeding them. It also includes the common "think of the children" idea.

And finally the fact that it's short and boring comes from the fact that nazis are uninspiring and uninspired, and they need a simple, to the point slogan to repeat without thinking about it too hard. They certainly know how to make a message concise, even at the cost of saying almost nothing of meaning when you think too hard about it.

All of this is classic fascism.

If enough researchers talk about the problems then that will eventually break through the bubble and investors will pull out.

We're at the stage of the new technology hype cycle where it crashes, essentially for this reason. I really hope it does soon because then they'll stop trying to force it down our throats in every service we use.

That is not what the paper means by "interest groups".

Not since I saw this graph:

From this paper:

This was published in 2014, back when Obama was in office.

The institutions are completely captured. Yes, even the ones you thought were on your side all this time.

Capital calls its own theft "innovation" and that of the individual "crime".

Excrubulently.

Gotcha, so when the boss tells me to "give 110%" I can go ahead and translate that to 55%.

And then not do that either.

Friend of mine who'd been in the room for bone surgeries said it was basically just carpentry. All saws, drills & screws.

I don't think you're going to get more efficient than "Luigi" right now, which I think might just do it.

Honestly the cultural power that word has right now is inspiring. They are so afraid, and people are seeing that they're afraid, and that has power in itself.

I don't understand why you're taking this so seriously. You said yourself it's insignificant.

So if that's the case why not let it go? Is getting the last word important to you even though the discussion isn't?

Lemmy uses pretty standard markdown, so this works in lots of forums besides lemmy.

Yeah, there's a simple code for it, you just have to type "Luigi spez" and they'll handle this for you.

As you wish.

I came here looking for it, so I may as well follow through on the prompt.

So you have no point and should be ignored. Thanks for confirming that.

At a certain point I realised I was explaining the super obvious, and I wanted to point that out.

If it offended you, sit with that feeling. Maybe it's trying to tell you something.
