  • You don’t always have to know how it works to rely on it. Most people could not tell you how a computer works but they are able to do better work.

    We can verify that it’s better in some tasks than people. E.g give doctors and the AI 1000 MRI scans of potential cancer patients and it can determine it more accurate than doctors. So there they already are a help.

    I'd really prefer if my doctor knew why they say I have cancer!

  • Books became a bicycle for the brain. Imo, AI is the same. Skills such as structuring sentences into perfectly grammatically correct forms will atrophy in exchange for the focus to be on the idea.

    "In the future all our thoughts will be filtered through phone keyboard next word suggestion, and this is a good thing!"

  • So the pros are

    • thing we have no way of knowing how it works, therefore no way of relying on it
    • thing that helps you do something you then have to do anyway by yourself (if you want to learn something from generative model output you still need to fact check it)
    • vague promise it will lead to anything useful in the future
  • Mostly they get to be cunts on the internet and get off on the hate.

    Some hide the fact that they're cheating and try to pretend they're actually good players.

    Usually there's no real or monetary reward, other than like boosting services that might use cheats.

  • The problems that lead to similar outcomes as gender dysphoria, such as body dysmorphic disorder are different and have different treatments.

    In the case of trans people with gender dysphoria, it is social and medical transition.

    You need to understand that these are different situations that require different approaches, this is why they're approached differently by doctors.

    Please I beg you to try to read up and understand the topics you talk about. I don't want to sound hostile, I'm just really tired.

  • Is giving a teenage boy a bigger dick gender affirming care, and therefore essential medical care? What about a girl who's flat chested wanting bigger boobs? I know it's weird to ask and I do feel kinda gross but yeah. Is that too far? What about an athlete who wants to take steroids cause it would help them achieve their ideal body?

    If my grandma had wheels?

    None of these are mostly reversible treatments with negligible long term impacts that are common with trans minors.

    None of thee are also connected to issues that cause intense mental health issues, including suicidal ideation AND can be treated by your proposed suggestions.

    You're comparing completely incomparable situations that look similar at face value without thinking about them for just a minute.

  • This.

    Please kill me, these things suck so fucking bad.

    They crash regularly during regular office work operation.

    I had a coworker try to help me with something but his chromebook crashed 5 times in the span of 3 minutes.
