What is even more insidious is if your own abusers adopt the clinical methodology and label you with a condition (ADHD in my case) such that you as a young person are incentivized to forget about the abuse they themselves perpetrated. I hav

> the less funny assumption is that someone could be more moved by an A.I. letter than by the unpolished emotion of an enthusiastic child. You'd be surprised. Tiger parenting is definitely a thing. That the technology validates this

I remember when the Steam "login from a new computer" auth flow shoved a big "Hi there!" in user's faces the moment it blocked access to their entire online functionality until they left to get a code from their ema

I think emerging technologies from now on won't be judged solely by what they make possible that wasn't possible before, but under what parameters/limitations they are morally acceptable to specific markets. (And this isn&#x2

I think this is a new paradigm shift only just getting underway within the past decade. In the past we used to be able to look forward to the future to solve obvious limitations of technology back then. Example is how limited and expensive

I'm feeling similar. Shitty people who are supposed to be your caretakers permanently reduce the brain cycles needed for other things. The damage is a lifelong condition, like diabetes or cancer. Everything that's their fault in a

I've gone through like 3 of those for one of my other devices. They're way too easy to lose and sometimes they outright don't work. It's a product that should not have to exist in 2025. I use my built-in headphone jack d

Possibly because you can completely avoid alcohol but you can't completely avoid food. Some large percentage of people who would have been addicted to other substances (due to less than optimal nature/nurture) but didn't, bec

I've wondered why, and what societal shifts in the world led us here. Maybe the "violent video games cause harm" narrative didn't work out in practice because the types of console video games that tend to become popular

If you had to ask me years ago, I would probably say that programming was my lifeblood. Not only did it pay, but it was fulfilling. Nothing could have convinced me otherwise. Some people will have to go through the burnout phase and reach r

I ordered $400 worth of items last month only for 70% of it to be cancelled automatically because "the seller has not shipped in the required time." My guess is some of the vendors decided to just stop shipping overseas but they c

People just have to want to like things. If they don't like something enough then a near-ubiquitous form of outsourcing is now available for them to get carried away with. The "wanting to like things" is a highly undervalued

This only came to light after the study had already been running for a few months. That proves that we can no longer tell for certain unless it's literal GPT-speak the author was too lazy to edit themselves. Teachers will lament the ri

I think it is more complicated than just a matter of being correct or not. Common advice in some creative professions is "don't bother trying to do X for a living, you'll never make it." The point of the advice is not wh

This is a good point, you can't be dependent on a chatbot in the same way you're dependent on someone you share a lease with. If people take up chatbots en masse, maybe it says more about how they perceive the risk of virtual or p

I had a chuckle at these two subsequent paragraphs. > One regular snipe is that it’s “easier to build rail in Morocco than in California.” > Al Boraq had full funding lined up before the project began. CAHSR did not. This led to delay

So if it took a few months and an email the researchers themselves chose to send for the mods at CMV to notice they were being inundated with AI, maybe this total breach of ethics is illuminating in a more sinister way? That from now on,

"The baby's gotta eat" is a very strong motivator for people to do somewhat cringe things in the name of their livelihoods and future. Including $50/year subscriptions for PDF reader apps (dead serious).

Double-edged sword IMO. I was mandated to a half hour of piano practice early on, and I came to dread it. But in my experience that was less having to do with being pushed to practice, and more I loathed my parents overhearing my piano play

A part of me thinks the opinion people have on this topic is partly mediated by whether or not the state or their parents abused them growing up. It's just dumb luck, and it is hard to imagine being in someone else's position sinc

When it comes down to childhood abuse, I wonder how many people would opt for an AI parent if they were able to in the future. Because in my mind it's less about the world takeover of supercomplex intelligences, and more the obsolescen
