I maaay have gotten into Warhammer 40k...

And I may have become hooked on painting...

I'm building two Chaos Undivided armies: Black Legion and Red Corsairs.

I plan to start a Thousand Sons army later this year. Back when Old World was the standard Fantasy, I played at a local hobby shop. But some of the people there were really nasty. Diehard sticklers who hated anything custom and treated people like me who didn't know the rules inside out as idiots. So I gave it up.

But now I play with my husband, my brother in law, my friends, and a really nice local group! Safe to say I am able to enjoy the hobby once more!

“Why are you scared of dating” I’m not scared of dating, I just haven’t found anyone’s company to be more enjoyable than my own. And also I don’t care

The people who insist AI is smarter than a human are doing their fucking damnedest to manifest that

[thefriendlyneighborhoodpervert]

This problem isn't AI. This problem originates with our terrible schooling system. It fails to prepare young people for existing in the real world, probably under the expectation that parents can do that themselves. The economy of this country has rendered parents basically incapable of spending hours and days teaching their kids how to exist, on top of those kids' ludicrous amounts of schoolwork.

Basically, the system has been designed to result in young adults with no ability to do much of anything besides basic manual labor, who rely on technology or other people's labor to cover the gaps in their own understanding.

The problem is indeed "AI," though other factors may be at play as well. Programs like chatGPT are actively designed to breed dependence, and are actively detrimental to the decision making and imagination parts of the brain.

The thing that people really need to understand is that the "product" that chatGPT and other "AI" chatbots create is "more interactions with chatGPT." Everything it does is engineered with that one end in mind. Think about how it's billed, and you'll see that's true, and why it's true. What do "pro" subscriptions give you? More inquiries, faster answers, etc. So its entire thing is "getting you to ask it more things, more often."

Will it say "I don't know?" No. You won't ask it things if it answers that. This is why hallucinations are built in, and cannot ever be eliminated.

These programs are machines meant to generate more inquiries, which means they will generate dependence in order to generate them.

The purpose of a machine is what it does.
