Hey so as the economy continues to get worse in the next few years, gambling companies are going to go extra hardcore predatory as people become more desperate. Yes, even more than they already are. You have to promise me right now you're not going to fall for it. No gambling, okay?

This is going to be especially bad with prediction markets and sports gambling, and it's already really fucking bad. But it also goes for loot boxes, blind box collectables, trading card games, and ESPECIALLY gacha games.

THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS

GAMBLING IS NEVER PROFITABLE

RESIST THE URGE

[scissorbugs]

Normally I would put this in tags but I was really disturbed when I visited the mall near me just a bit ago. In almost every single store, there were blindbox toys, blindbox bags, and all sorts of varieties of things in blind boxes. I wasn’t surprised by the toy stores, but fashion stores, shoe stores, even in some of the restaurants, soap and scent stores, they were unavoidable! They were literally EVERYWHERE. It really freaked me out, it’s getting really widespread. And in the stores where they’re most prevalent, the displays are featured RIGHT in front of the entrance, you HAVE to see them.

The problem is very very real. Please please do not fall for the overwhelming marketing they’re pushing.

[queerautism]

Yes, exactly. Businesses are going to push for this a lot, they're going to present it as something normal, just a bit of fun. But the goal is genuinely just to exploit the exact same psychological vulnerabilities that gambling does. And frankly in many cases to sell you unwanted stock at a premium price. It is simply not worth it, and you're better off not participating.

based off this screen cap

[magicmooshka]

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence lies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

Hey OP? Thank you for articulating something I've been trying to get clear in my own mind for a while now.
