    That is an absolutely horrifying statement. The idea that people are becoming unable or unwilling to use any problem solving or critical thinking.

      Have you ever read “I, Starship?” This is literally the bunker people that they come back to on their return voyage after the 1st book. Totally dependant on their AI governor for any decision-making whatsoever.

      Man, why’d all the shitty sci-fi have to come true… I don’t wanna live in I Have No Neuromancer And I Must 451

        To quote Alex:

        Alex Blechman (@AlexBlechman) tweeted: Sci-Fi Author: In my book I invented the Torment Nexus as a cautionary tale.

        Tech Company: At long last, we have created the Torment Nexus from classic sci-fi novel Don’t Create The Torment Nexus.

        Kinda like in Wall-E where almost nobody has critical thought until a robot teaches it to them. They all have their entertainment systems mindlessly scrolling while the robots do everything for them.

      I meaaaan, I’d argue that before ChatGPT people would just read books or ask others for advice, no? Ain’t no one figuring out child rearing completely in the dark.

      I’d also argue, of course, that ChatGPT is a significantly unhealthier means to solve the same problem.

    Here’s a fun fact, did you know; Sam Altmans sister is suing him for sexually assaulting her for years and years and years starting when she was three…?

    … Wait that’s not a fun fact at all

    my dad is currently falling down a rabbit hole with that shit, like he is about to build a very expensive pc (with exactly the parts chatgpt tells him to buy) cuz chatgpt told him it would get restricted so he is desperately trying to run it locally, he also lets it tell him what to invest in and that he is the smartest man in the world… christmas is gonna be fun…

    “AI” is only really impressive/convincing to those who don’t think. They don’t understand how information is produced, they don’t understand how ideologies are formed, they cannot construct nor explain a train of thought… then they see this probabilistic word calculator trained on millions of humans actually yapping online and think it “has the answers”, lol.

        @grok: Elon has improved cereal technology 1000 fold. He is truly a genius exceeding Einstein and his shlonger is at a minimum longer than Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s from that scene in BASEketball.

      At first I was 100% behind your argument, but then I thought about the current GOP… And now I am thinking maybe being raised by machines would not be bad.

        Yeah I don’t like this argument. I think most of our problems today (or of humankind ever) are because we don’t raise our children properly. I would even say this is the (only) solution to prevent wars.

    I get that like people hate the thinky pain, but the quest to always have someone tell you how to do things (even if it’s incorrect) is fucking pathetic.

      And then they overconfidently try to tell you things they “learned” and you have to say that they’re completely wrong.

      This shit makes assholes overconfident just like the shitty llm, ha.

    Sam: Chat gpt can I put my baby in the oven to warm it up? I’m afraid it’ll catch a cold. GPT: of course! Putting children in ovens is a great way to warm them up. Save time by putting your dinner in the top rack! Sam: Jesus christ why would you tell me that I have to go to the hospital!!! GPT: oh, my bad, you’re correct, you should not put babies in ovens. Would you like a list of the closest hospitals to your location?

    So easy a caveman can do it; but not a tech bro.

    All bad jokes aside, I can’t imagine a problem I had in raising my kids in the first 2 years that I think AI would’ve helped with.

    Most things like that would’ve been lab reports and diagnosis from doctors which even Google searches just kind of caused more harm than good for me (harm being worry)

    “If you only have a hammer, then every problem looks like a nail.”

    But even then, I find it alarming that he doesn’t seem to know about the internet, libraries, or even just books, in general.
