Yes but that's not what people think. They use it as a search engine, a programmer and a teacher. This is my problem, they use it as something it absolutely isn't and base their opinions, knowledge and work on that.

Unless you are a rock, your brain processes information to extract meaning from it. AIs don't.

It does not work. At most it looks like it works.

A human brain is able to understand and process information. An AI simply calculates a mathematical function. There is no reasoning and no understanding of anything, all that ChatGPT does is try to look like a human. And by "try to look like a human", I mean "generate sentences that can be believable, on shape, to be written by a human".

If you ask it to calculate 2+2, and then tell it that it is equal to 5, it won't see any problem because it doesn't understand any of it. But it will give you answers that are, grammatically speaking, reasonably human.

If I ask a rock how much is 2+2 and I throw it, and it bounces 4 times, it does not mean that this rock knows how to count. ChatGPT and similar are just better illusions, but they're nothing more.

If anything, people who like chatGPT are the ones ignorant of how it works (spoiler: it doesn't).

And kids with their understanding of technology being limited to youtube and tiktok have no clue about what an AI is. They see it, like most people, as a magic black box that is incredibly smart. Apart from being a black box, none of that is true.

A calculator calculates. An AI bullshits.

The only thing ChatGPT can actually do might be marketing speeches, since they are nonsensical to start with and made by things pretending to be humans.

He ignored his employees saying that the device wasn't ready and forced them to try it on the animals

It cannot "work". Even if it succeeded technically speaking, you cannot expect such a device to be secure (as no device is, and certainly not one made by Musk).

Now computerised cars are already an increasing risk in giving new ways to commit murder without being caught, but if you directly put a security risk in your brain, I am pretty sure that many people will jump on the occasion.

And even in the draconic universe, the one constant about humans remained: boomers and their shitty idea of what a wife is.

Big or not, they talked about great games, and there are many incredible open source games, however not always very popular.

I mean, technically even games like morrowind could be called open source now, with Open Morrowind.

Tell me you have no clue about video games without telling me you have no clue about video games.

Killing is inhumane.

Killing in self defense might be necessary, yet it does not become humane just because you want it to.

Because I said that killing is inhumane?

Oh I forgot, Russia doesn't kill anyone, silly me /s

It can be a necessity and still be inhumane.

Having to do something does not make it good, and it's fine as long as people see it.

That sounds like your average american too.

Nonetheless, if you start thinking that killing is humane because "they deserve it", I will repeat myself, you have a serious problem.

Because I'm pretty sure that this horrible rapist invader is also convinced that you deserve it, yet I don't believe you would find their behaviour humane for that reason.

It's a weird edge case that is between killing and assisted suicide, assuming there is consent.

Euthanasia without consent seems not so humane to me, but once again it is an edge case that is still hard to define.

There is a difference, but if you start saying that shooting an invader is humane, you have a serious problem.

And no one would qualify those as "humane" either. So the argument still stands.

Because the marketing of apple has been the one of a sect for years. Good if it's changing.

So people kill animals for fun, but when someone suggests using animals to save lives it's evil?

Fix things in logical order and hopefully by then we'll have developed other solutions that do not depend on animals. But don't fight against progress when there are so many horrible and useless things that are allowed at the same time, pick your fights efficiently.

Dilemma? What dilemma?
