I'm genuinely cackling, an anon accused me of being a proshipper, I was like "I'm not, I'm a ship and let ship type of person." But they called me a proshipper for using the following argument which is why I'm actually writing this because I think this is the place where this type of sentiment is appreciated:

"Censorship should not be accepted because when you ban one word at what point does it stop? At what point does it stop being about morality and start being about control? Censorship means giving the government power it should not have over it's people. Once the government bans one word how soon until they ban freedom of speech all together? How much longer till they rewrite history because the law forces the populace to hold their tongues? Censorship means throwing yourself down the path to Fascism. You do not live in a free country if you not free to use your tongue or write whatever please."

And if believing in those words makes me a proshipper, fine. I accept it. I'd rather be part of the group of "bad" people then the group of "good" people trying to edge us closer to fascism.

I’m saying this with respect, by definition, being anti censorship and anti harassment is proship. that’s why I am proship.

and your stance—regarding “ship and let ship” and censorship—is exactly what being proship means. but whether or not you’ll use the label is entirely up to you.

so many people think proship means “liking dark and taboo ships” but that’s not the case. while people who are proship can enjoy dark and taboo ships, the only definition of proship is:

“ship and let ship. your kink is not my kink and that’s okay. don’t like don’t read. censorship is bad. harassment is bad. fiction is not reality. thoughtcrimes are not real. I may not like the things you enjoy in fiction, hell, I may even find them disgusting, but I will never shame, harass or try to take away your rights to create and consume whatever you want, as long as it’s fiction and you’re not harming anyone in real life, I will just mind my own business and curate my own internet experience by muting, blocking, or scrolling past things I don’t want to see.”

proship is not “bad people”. we are just normal people who are against censorship, against harassment. normal people who can separate fiction from reality.

did you know you can rename everything on your pc

i've been using computers since 2009 i know how computers work you people need to stop assuming people know nothing about computers. yes i know you can change icons. i just made this post because i wanted to make a silly post about my puter. so many of you people would be the least fun person at parties because of how you go "omgf youre so stupid wait until you learn about (thing)" like politely. shut the fuck up and start being nicer to strangers on the internet

have some fucking joy and whimsy and instead say "its so awesome people are learning about this"

been trying to let go of some of the hate in my heart but it’s load-bearing haterism at this point

[louder than everyone] MAN I THINK IT DEPENDS!

[redstonedust]

for the record im not technially 100% anti-AI, in the sense that its a broad category of tech being lumped under one umbrella term so it feels over-zealous to say i hate all of it all the time forever. but i also think trying to discuss what it actually IS good for is difficult right now when i cant take one step without something trying to convince me to use chatgpt to summarize my life and speed up my hobbies and turn my friends into chatbots and optimize my life into oblivion. i am certain there is nuance to the topic but can we stop cramming the square peg into the round hole before you start trying to sell me on the legitimate benefits of the square peg. please.

Neural Nets have existed for decades and are genuinely useful. It's a form of AI that recognizes patterns, and can do stuff like identify cancer cells, tell whether an egg is fertilized or not, detect fraud, and optimize routes.

Those are Expert Systems, tuned to do exactly one thing. If you (say) ask a medical expert system a question about financial law, it's useless. The autopilot that flies a 787 has no idea how to drive a truck on the freeway. A Coulter Counter is excellent at identifying lymphocytes in a blood sample but can't predict the next card in a blackjack game.

And so on.

The problem with so-called generalized AI (AGI) is that we don't have that yet. It doesn't exist. It MIGHT some day, but AGI has been "10 years away" since the 1980s. The goals keep moving as we learn more about how people and machines process data.

But the current crop of AI techbros have been selling generative Large Language Model AI (LLM) as AGI because generative systems do a good job of faking it. There's no actual thought going on, merely the illusion of thought via predicting the next word in a sentence accurately.

If you let a human toddler listen to 800 hours of YouTube car influencer videos, that toddler might end up sounding like a car influencer. They'd parrot horsepower numbers and 0 to 60 times, mention EV range and MSRP numbers.

But they wouldn't understand any of it.

That's ChatGPT.

And yeah, it's worse than useless because it doesn't even know when it's lying or hallucinating. It just babbles convincingly until you stop it.

But for techbros to make money selling that as "AI"? It's the perfect scam, especially if you don't understand how it works.

I fucking hate it.
