This isn't the gotcha you think it is, and you're basically accusing the individual of "sour grapes". It isn't clever, it's plainly transparent, and about the easiest way to trivialize someone else's moral

Not centauring for your AI or training dataset. Sorry. What the current AI industry comes down to is a tollbooth on " interesting" research work, where the people hosting the infra are just waiting for monetizable opportunities to

"Don't let the slaves know that maybe they don't have to be slaves," is all I'm hearing. We already had that chapter. I see no reason to sit here and nod while a bunch of people who should know better desperately tr

Translation: Don't think about the unpleasant thing on which my livelihood depends, or force me to confront the potential unpleasant consequences of what it says about me. Every AI bro is starting to fall into the valley of a fundament

And this right here is why I refuse to do anything to remotely help those who who are salivating over AI. I refuse to engage with or improve any system that counts suffering as an operational mechanism. I'll build tools that solve pr

Illusion of choice when Burger King & McD's end up under the same umbrella company run by the same fucking people. Your answer tries to put the onus on the individual, when those who replicate legal fiction are busy shaping the fie

Broadcasters: the cutting edge of streaming information is ours! Now let's make it so everyone unknowingly broadcasts as much info back to us as possible! Poor Farnsworth. He just wanted edutainment, man.

People who serve ads never ask whether the user whether they wish their computer hardware to be utilized for advertising. They just use it. Ads are 100% predisposed on trespassing. Your average ad supported site wants discoverability by be

People here are too damned daft to realize half the damn purpose of this place is harvesting ideas. People need to just shut up, and keep things to themselves, and those they trust. Right now is not the time for naive info sharing.

The best way to get corporate America to listen is making RoI suffer. If you are the most qualified, everyone other than you is less qualified for the job, and likely to bring in more waste. It's the only language this stupid damn coun

Take care of yourself. Wear PPE, do your job right, work smarter, not harder. Your body will thank you in the long run. And for the love of all that is holy, invest in some thermal PPE. You will be amazed how deleterious extreme heat (104+)

Pretty much. At least until jurisprudence makes it unambiguously clear that delegating to an AI model does not transfer liability for outcomes.

Can confirm. Until I worked on an honest phone system tuned to actually get people connected with call centre reps, I never quite had a feel for how malicious many contact funnels have become. A good one runs like a Swiss watch, and is triv
