Why though

Hell yeah! Also fuck JD Vance.

WolfQuest is the obvious touchstone here I think.

Very realistic apparently in many ways.

Niche is based in a fictional ecosystem but is a great simulator game where you try to build a pack of animals and deal with evolution and survival.

The Isle looks decent

I also HIGHLY recommend the Board Game Oceans…

…and other games in the series that started with Evolution.

Digital versions are available for both and both are very deep.

I don’t think you are reading my points close enough.

so, yeah, it’s perfectly understandable why a lot of people are less than optimistic about the technology and its future.

Nope not what I am disagreeing with, I am disagreeing with the logic of portraying AI repeatedly as genuinely scary. I am not questioning why people are not optimistic about AI.

Yes, this tendency is really dangerous in my opinion.

Probably some decoys and maybe a single real Pantsir with some drunk idiots crewing it who barely know what any of the buttons do other than FIRE.

It is kind of funny to think that out there in russia there has to be at least one decoy/broken Pantsir/complex air defense system manned by a crew that are bullshitting that they know how to use the Pantsir/air defense system and thus don’t realize they have a non-working air defense system… giving them perfect theatrical commitment to operating the air defense system like it was real…

Your argument explains why we would tell stories that reflect negatively on AI and the people who are obsessed with AI not why we would invoke AI as something we should fear because it actually works.

There is a difference between something being overhyped bullshit and something being a near apocalyptically powerful force for evil though.

Actually there has been a lot of breakthrough innovations in Human Resources capability in the last couple of years, we are quickly approaching the point where scientists may be able to offload accountability from greedy CEOs onto computers using advanced cutting edge technology!

Where is your proof of that? What does Occam’s Razor say here about all the overhyped end-of-the-world claims AI people make?

This is just another cult grown out of an aesthetic attraction to a new technology everyone for a moment thought was all powerful and then realized was mostly complete bullshit.

I think people are complicit to the degree they have agency and power in a system, which means for most people they technically are complicit but compared to the complicity of the ruling class it becomes arguably trivial except as an ethical and philosophical detail in a larger tragedy.

True, I think there is a good chance Netanyahu will use nuclear weapons especially if the US genuinely tries to end the Iran War.

Jared Kushner would be useful enough as a fencepost you would just need a whole lot of them to make a fence obviously.

Can people stop with this TACO bullshit now? Trump is a coward, which means he will escalate in this war with Iran.

Why is everyone convinced Trump is the type of coward who backs down? He is the type of coward that blindly flails around until their money and power solves the problem. Trump escalates all the time instead of backing down.

The confidence of both the US and Iran here in negotiations really worries me. Obviously the US position is despicable in launching this illegal offensive war but also Iran seems to think Trump and his cronies will back down because they are cowards and that is a CATASTROPHIC miscalculation.

Trump will escalate because he is a coward. I have never been more nervous for the outbreak of nuclear war than I am now because people against the US really don’t seem to understand this. There is no sign this war is going to slow down or stop rapidly growing.

Why? This company is tearing the US apart, it is evil as fuck.

Fuck AI, fuck everyone who uses AI as an excuse to torpedo the labor market and force workers into a position where they have to accept less.

Vote that piece of shit Orban out!

Jared Kushner reminds me of a fencepost.

I just want you to SHOW me you care in a way you are PHYSICALLY incapable of!
