Not sure why the downvotes—if I came off wrong, my apologies. I genuinely meant it in a humoristic way. I'd honestly love to see a probe launched into a black hole.
- misnome 1y agoIt’s the AI Poe’s law: Any joke is indistinguishable from insane stuff LLM advocates will earnestly say they can do.
- snapetom 1y agoWe don't do humor here, and I'm not kidding. Humor devolves the site into useless one liners. If you want evidence of that, go to reddit and see how useful that site is these days if you want to actually research and learn something. Slashdot knew this back in the day and while funny posts got visibility, they did not add anything to a user's total karma score.
- ednite 1y agoFair enough--I'll be more mindful next time. Thanks for letting me know.
- vaxman 1y agoOh this site does humor great, it's just that the serious participants are so "focused" they don't (or can't) realize how funny their often esoteric comments are. As far as devolving into useless one liners --there is an emerging tech called the at-proto (not related to modems hahaa) that is poised to disrupt billions of dollars worth of sites like this one. Enjoy this era while it lasts..
- api 1y agoPolitics is mostly soft-banned (downvoted to oblivion) for a similar reason. Most political discourse online devolves into rage bait and outrage porn and people regurgitating canned talking points. Look at Xhitter for endless examples of this, basically the whole site now.
- jeffhuys 1y agoIt’s because you either type like an LLM or because you use an LLM. We don’t like that. At least, I don’t.
