For sure and it’s frustrating knowing every post I make anywhere is being used to train LLMs generally, but as you mentioned reddit was particularly egregious about it, picked a specific partner(s) for it, and focused on monetizing their users’ content.
… and full of karma bots
… and using use input to train LLMs
The rich people are almost all psychopaths and probably got that way because of the way wealth warps people’s minds.
hey look who hasn’t been busted doing the same wrong thing on the 15th time and thought, “man y’know what it’s time to turn myself around…”
There’s already the fact that whatever algorithms there are haven’t been and likely won’t be tweaked or pushed to maximize engagement.
Heck I’m not even sure if upvotes are particularly critical to what I’m getting served…
I like the Gnostic explanation that the being who created the material universe was a lesser deity of some sort (I think they call it evil but I’d probably go with chaotic or something). It made people to have intelligent-ish beings to interact with, and it put the Trees of “Knowledge of God & Evil” and “Life” in the Garden (for some reason) but didn’t want Adam & Eve to become knowledgeable & immortal.
In this telling, the “Serpent” is Jesus by which they mean the physical projection of the actual highest actually all powerful, all loving, etc etc god, and it wants to free A&E so it convinced them to eat the fruit.
I mean in any other timeline that would be pretty funny…
Only Peyton from that godforsaken part of Tennessee I’ll ever cheer for
If you know anyone who is anti trans but goes by a nickname, start calling them by their given name. Doug, you’re Douglas. Alex, you’re Alexander or Alexis or whatever. Bill: William. Ted: Rafael (might only apply to one Senator).
Blimey it’s hot in here, Bruce!
Post a bunch of Moon non-religious creeds/ directives too.
The Hippocratic Oath Laws of Robotics Presidential Oath of Office Federal and State Oaths of Office
etc.
the transition from “actually” free access LLM/GPT to “the cost is your soul” will be really interesting, that’s for sure.
I’m not sure I follow.
I’m starting from the assumption that OP genuinely wants to talk to women without being creepy (for lack of a better term), presuming that comes from his intrinsic association between “talking to a woman” and “attempting to establish a romantic relationship with that woman.”
That’s a thought that’s undesirable and presumably persistent. Sort of the definition of “intrusive.”
I’m aware that the pop psych understanding of the phrase is specifically about violent or violence associated thoughts but those are the ones more people have and that probably are more disturbing than annoying.
When your parents say, “did you talk to any of them,” they mean did you strike up a conversation with a woman with no presumption of potential romantic outcome.
When you say it, it seems like you’re assuming there’s a potential for a romantic outcome in every conversation between heterosexual men and women.
Your goal should be to strike up a conversation with a woman about random topics of interest, including very shallow ones, with no expectation that you’re evaluating her as a potential mate, and she’s not evaluating you.
Yes, we’re all subject to intrusive thoughts so from time to time, you’ll fail at this goal and start thinking about a romantic path. That’s fine. Just acknowledge it to yourself and endeavor to do better.
It will probably take time and practice. Give yourself grace to try and fail and learn. You’ll know you’re succeeding when you realize you had a conversation with a woman without her gender being a consequential thought in your mind.
Are Rich People OK?
so he admits it’s virtuous… just that he thinks some people are doing it disingenuously…?

Yeah this guy’s obliviousness is pretty amazing. “I don’t think this guy is a Nazi, and because I don’t think he’s a Nazi, my friends are calling me a Nazi” is like… obviously that’s how it would be if one were a Nazi and didn’t know it.
