my non-nuanced and un-researched opinion is that if ai were actually so great, tech companies wouldn't have to work so hard to convince us it's literally the key to salvation

if it can't speak for itself, why the fuck are you SCREAMING about it

[vergess]

My highly nuanced and extremely researched opinion is: yeah, correct, exactly this. AI is a powerful niche tool with great implications for SOME, SPECIFIC types of research, automation, communication, and data generation.

It is not some kind of superintelligent panacea for all industries, which is the big lie being pushed by tech bros.

They are screaming about it because they want to be the next Jeff Bezos, and they are idiots who will be proven wrong, but not before their burst bubble destroys millions of lives along the way.

It's an old metaphor, but a good one:

AI is an electric blender. It makes a lot of difficult tasks fast and easy (whipping cream! Blended soups!), and a handful of impossible tasks possible (food pasting for liquid diets!).

Now imagine your boss coming to you and saying this blender is going to replace half your team.

Fucking unhinged behaviour! The blender is a great tool that is totally fucking irrelevant in 90% of places!!

AI is much the same.

It has valid, valuable, niche applications.

It is being used outside those applications to great misery and little effect.

Benoit Blanc is the ally of all time. He lies to the cops. He yells at bigots. He trusts people who haven’t earned it because they deserve it.

He goes to solve the murder of a rich white man in his home, and the dead man's Hispanic immigrant nurse has a spot of blood on her shoe. He says nothing. She actively fucks with the crime scene and destroys evidence. He does nothing. She gets into a full on police chase with an arsonist in the passenger's seat. He tells her it's ok and she needs to stop. She's a good person. She's nice. She has to stop. He'll fix it. He'll solve it. He proves the asshole rich nephew did it and immediately calls him out for his "ancestral home" that he got in the 80s from a Pakistani man. Because he researched. He calls all the rich people assholes at the end. He leaves Marta to her new fortune.

A new bunch of rich assholes go to a private island. A black woman tells him that one of them killed her sister, without an ounce of physical proof. He believes her anyway and he goes. He hates them so much. They're all rich and stupid and they think that they're smart and they're "disruptors". He hates them so much. One of them sexually harasses him. He still works to solve the case. He works with Helen to manipulate them all. He whimpers and starts to cry when he thinks she's been shot. He tells her to fake her death. He calls out the rich people. He finds the murderer. He gets a confession. The proof is destroyed. There is nothing else. He walks out, giving the black woman the tools to literally burn the place down. He smokes outside while the Mona Lisa burns.

A young priest genuinely wants to make a church better. Everyone thinks he's the killer. He is crying when Blanc meets him. He doesn't tell him that God loves him; he tells Blanc that the Bible is full of stories for them to learn from. This priest is different. He is also suspect number 1. He's kind of the only one who could have done it. Blanc lets him talk about knife robots. The priest tries to turn himself in. No one else could have done it, it must have been him. Benoit grabs him and shoves him out of the station so he doesnt. He stops the priest from confessing things he didn't do (or maybe he did) at every turn because he is a kind, loving, giving boy; the exact kind of Catholic he never saw growing up. The ones who blame the boy are all the kind he's used to. He will not let the one good priest he's ever seen go down that easy. He lies to the cops. He aids and abetts a wanted man. He lets him into crime scenes and he tells him to get down and shut up. He learns from him and lets him forgive the murderer because she was manipulated for 60 years. He lets her die at peace, understanding. Forgiven. He's usually angry. Mean towards the killers. He lets the priest be kind.

He protects people from the cops, from rich people, from the world around them because he knows that he has privilege. He's a white man. He's southern. He's a detective. He has authority and he uses that to help people who don't. I love him so much.

Got dialating eye drops at the doctor's office today so I can't read anything. Luckily I can still post because I remember where all the keys are with my powerful posting organ. And I never really read shit anyway so basically I'm more powerful than ever

[snailkites]

I need to leave my apartment and go to work but there's a female Downy Woodpecker on my suet block pecking crumbs onto the ground where a female Carolina Wren is eating them #womensupportingwomen

But I can't leave because I would disturb them and they really need this right now (it's 3F and going to snow)

Either people need to learn how to tell the difference between an “I’m sorry” that takes direct responsibility and an “I’m sorry” that signifies sympathy, or I’m gonna start responding to unfortunate information with a solemn nod and a “Sympies,” because I am tired of receiving a “Why? It wasn’t your fault” every time I try to vocalize compassion.

3rd person is the most common perspective style…

[ach-sss-no]

I want to trap the can't-read-3rd-person poster in the same room as one of those people who hates 1st person so much they want to wipe it from the universe (usually through not being widely read and only encountering 1st person ever in a particularly annoying type of YA fiction). then we'd see who wins, and if they manage to overcome their differences and fall in love. i think i could make a whole anime out of that

[misplacedlizard]

The encounter between them should be narrated in second-person. To annoy both of them.

[estel-and-agape]

You think that’s a wonderful idea.
