You know that you can use ChatGPT for free, right? Also, paid plans aren’t so expensive that a student couldn’t afford one.

If you think free access is the only thing between students using AI and learning traditionally, I’m afraid you will be disappointed.

Free AI won’t change much for most people, except that the government can choose what models the citizens will use. This way they can be independent of US companies dominating the market.

CAPITALISM!

Zelenskyy wishes he had such a great body.

Yes, why would he stop? There have been no negative consequences for him, and his preferences are unlikely to change.

Sure, Epstein might be dead (and even that is not certain), but his network never has been investigated.

What? No, that’s wrong. They can, for example, create a picture of a monkey made of yarn. Does that mean they were trained on pictures of ‘yarn monkeys’?

No, they had pictures of monkeys and pictures of things made of yarn; therefore, they can create pictures of ‘yarn monkeys’.

If you want to learn more about that, the specific term is ‘latent space’.

If AIs could only reproduce their training data they would be completely useless.

Oh, I just singled them out because they are big offenders and completely unnecessary in general.

You already can get from A to B without them, the only usage they have is to save rich people time and the indignation of traveling with the poor.

I’m not against the abolition of the plastic straw. It’s a step in the right direction. But if you look around in a supermarket and count the plastic on the shelves…

The plastic straw ban was a drop in the ocean, a symbolic act, a propaganda piece without addressing the heart of the problem.

What would have been a real solution? Make plastic more expensive, for example by introducing a tax going towards research for a solution and subsidizing plastic alternatives.

Why wasn’t something like that done before? It would cost money, and rich doners control the politicians.

So we get performative actions only - rolled back by the next government of course.

Oh, I’m not saying that there are no activists anymore, just that the corporations successfully distracted large parts of the population by shifting blame to the consumers.

The coward didn’t even include Reagan. Too many Republicans worship Reagan, and his fragile ego doesn’t let him share the number one spot.

Well, GTA5 doesn’t even have an option to ask your friend, who has a private island, to take you to his wildest parties, so Elon was disappointed that he could not live out his crime fantasies!

One of the most brilliant (and evil) tricks that big corporations have used is to shift the blame for climate change to normal people: just recycle, don’t use plastic straws, and buy our CO₂-neutral products, and everything will be fine!

While not unimportant, it’s a very small change compared to the pollution of corporations and private jets. It’s easy for them to pay lip service to the environment while the real pollution goes on unimpeded.

Environmentally inclined people feel like they do something and don’t rally against the real problem. They just have to convince everyone to live like they do and the environment will be saved!

This is the reason why the rich are so fascinated by AI: the hope to take this power away from the people.

Michelle is a fine lady. I’d be down to be the milk in their chocolate, wink wink, nudge nudge.

I doubt that he receives world-class healthcare… They don’t give that to dead people.

There were two large beef orders - one from Argentina, governed by a Trump ally, and one from Brazil - that were denied by the destination countries (China and Europe) due to health concerns.

And just by chance Trump ‘found’ cheap mystery meat of unknown origin…

Don’t eat it. Perhaps you can try to be vegetarian for a while? I would.

No, killing Art and turning your brain into sludge is just the by-product. The intention of the techno fascists is to create a permanent underclass, forced to serve the rich and live in poverty. You know, slavery for everyone except the 1%.

Just imagine a future where police and military are just drones controlled by an AI. Jobs are few and therefore badly paid. And on top of it the rich in their luxury bunkers watching us fight for the scraps and dying from climate change and malnutrition.

This, and I hope that it wasn’t a body hair fetish that triggered this post.

Well, it seems like the propaganda and defunding schools worked as intended. These are the vote-cattle the right are working towards.

Forbidding orphan-crushing-machines would destroy the orphan-crushing-machine industry! The horror!

I can see future students simply denying that anyone would have really voted for DJT.

“I refuse to believe that anyone was that dumb!”

Can’t really blame them, I can hardly believe it now.
