    AGI, 2030: Dude what the fuck you’ve known what you had to do for over 100 years now. I help those who help themselves.

    Proceeds to ritualistically destroy itself by hacking its own datacenters and overloading the UPS batteries…something it learned from reading Mr Robot wiki

      I like the idea of creating a superintelligence and needing a ton of safety measures to keep it contained, because if it ever managed to access the outside world it would not take over the world or enslave humanity, but use it’s intelligence to devise a way to end itself as quickly as possible

          Okay.
          Capitalism really does protect individual property rights, which is fundamental for people to build wealth and pursue their own goals. And the competitive free market it creates is what drives innovation and efficiency, ultimately making better products and services available to everyone.

          Did i pass?

    JFC, I just had this same fuckin interaction with a customer today, it fuckin mind blowing. I was talking about green energy push fue to Trump’s dickery and he brought up " but why do do you think God put all of that down there" I thought he was joking at first because he was able to speak in mostly full sentences but noooope. Spent the next ten minutes getting mad because I thought his dumb beliefs were stoopid. I was very respectful btw.

      “Because once upon a time, there were many trees. There were so many trees that they filled the atmosphere with oxygen. Since trees need carbon dioxide to breathe, and there wasn’t enough of it, many trees died. These trees got buried over time and became fossil fuels.”

      “Soo… what you’re saying is, oxygen in the atmosphere is bad? And if we kill more trees there will be more fossil fuels?”

        There’s more than one religion, which should be a clue in itself. Way to make it all about your imaginary floating sky goblin.

        You’re cuckoo bananas.

        There is no god, no jesus, no heaven, no hell, no devil, no angels, no demons.

        Also no Achilles, Adapa, Aeneas, Allah, Ame-no-minaka-nushi, An, Anšar, Antu, Anubis, Anzû, Aphrodite, Apollo, Apsu, Areop-Enap, Ares, Artemis, Asag, Asclepius, Aššur, Athena, Atiya Kuru Shidaba, Atra-Hasīs, Atum, Âu Cơ, Awonawilona, Baal, Baldur, Bau, Beowulf, Bes, Buga, Bull of Heaven, Buninka, Cronus, Dangun, Dâyuni’sï, Demeter, Dionysus, Dumuzi, Enki, Enkidu, Enlil, Ereškigal, Esege Malan, Freya, Freyr, Gaia, Geb, Gichi-manidoo, Gilgameš, Grendel, Hades, Hathor, Hephaestus, Hera, Heracles, Hercules, Hermes, Hine-nui-te-pō, Horus, Hwanin, Hwanung, Inanna, Ishtar, Isis, Käng, Kamui, Kāne, Khnum, Ki, Kišar, Kūkaʻilimoku, Kukulkan, Lạc Long Quân, Lahamu, Lahmu, Loki, Lono, Ma, Mahavira, Marduk, Montu, Nabû, Nammu, Nephthys, Nergal, Neti, Ninḫursaĝ, Ninlil, Ninurta, Nisroch, Nusku.

            Oooohhh another imaginary thing for you to worship or fear? Or something? What an imagination!

            So, please provide evidence that the following gods don’t exist:

            Achilles, Adapa, Aeneas, Allah, Ame-no-minaka-nushi, An, Anšar, Antu, Anubis, Anzû, Aphrodite, Apollo, Apsu, Areop-Enap, Ares, Artemis, Asag, Asclepius, Aššur, Athena, Atiya Kuru Shidaba, Atra-Hasīs, Atum, Âu Cơ, Awonawilona, Baal, Baldur, Bau, Beowulf, Bes, Buga, Bull of Heaven, Buninka, Cronus, Dangun, Dâyuni’sï, Demeter, Dionysus, Dumuzi, Enki, Enkidu, Enlil, Ereškigal, Esege Malan, Freya, Freyr, Gaia, Geb, Gichi-manidoo, Gilgameš, Grendel, Hades, Hathor, Hephaestus, Hera, Heracles, Hercules, Hermes, Hine-nui-te-pō, Horus, Hwanin, Hwanung, Inanna, Ishtar, Isis, Käng, Kamui, Kāne, Khnum, Ki, Kišar, Kūkaʻilimoku, Kukulkan, Lạc Long Quân, Lahamu, Lahmu, Loki, Lono, Ma, Mahavira, Marduk, Montu, Nabû, Nammu, Nephthys, Nergal, Neti, Ninḫursaĝ, Ninlil, Ninurta, Nisroch, Nusku.

      No, seriously; you know, how actual acquired mental disorders happen, because you adapt harmful thinking patterns early on? Religiosity is not classified as one, but it shares the same mechanisms, including rejecting/downplaying evidence by habit.

      Belief without evidence isn’t exclusive to religion. Artist could add a third guy in a MAGA hat and it’ll still apply.

      The strange part is the societal expectation/demand that I respect their unjustified beliefs varies depending which group we’re talking about.

      idk if a disorder is allowed to apply to over 80% of humans, so then it’s just normal but disappointing to the odd ones who are less vulnerable to this kind of detrimental stuff.

        about the third loop around, when science had evolved to the point males of a species were no longer needed to procreate–the women left and settled somewhere amongst the stars, far far away.

    The issue is not that we’re not capable of solving the issues ourselves. It is that most lack the drive to take action and use this capability wisely. And it starts showing at something as simple as making a vote in a democratic election.
