I dont mind if people stream but sometimes the exaggerated thumbnails with their stupid exaggerated expressions is so fucking weird. Like it smells like LOOK AT ME.
they basically started the whole pseudoscience movements, a couple of fake diseases: morgellans, Chronic lyme was all coined by midwestern moms having psychosomatic, delusional parasitosis events. i went to other forums, and the symptoms they described are not of infectious diseases, by some mental illness they describing.
You say this, but I got banned from a sub for being a corporate shill for trying to explain to what I’m pretty sure was a 13 year old kid that AI is not going to dissapear and that it’s not just a fun toy used to make shitty TikTok videos
I would explain what AI Agents were and how they worked and what they did and I was told I was a troll that like to suck my bosses dick… and then I was banned
My job? Software engineer. Been one for over 20 years.
Those same people that called me a troll, a shill, a company man that liked to suck my bosses dick; the mods that banned me; they are all probably here right now talking about how stupid it is that people don’t listen to experts…
You’re a 1 week old account, and all you’ve done is shill AI non stop (with arguments that are wrong and uninformed).
I think that supposed 13 year old is smarter than you, and I also think the mod was probably in the right.
Oh, also. AI as in LLMs and agents is not the future. The fact that you’re a software engineer means nothing, you either are a bot or drank the kool aid. And after seeing you say lies such as “AI is already not a failure” or that is has done new things “more than any other invention in human history”, I don’t know if I should believe that you are a software engineer.
Good luck making the pigs stop eating slop
We need to start tellingmtjmem to close their mouths because we dont want to smell the shot in them whenever the pigs start talking.
Maybe we shouldn’t perpetuate dunning-krugerization such that everyone feels they fully understand the effects of a magnetosphere on orbital mechanics after a one paragraph explanation. The sense of ‘ownership’ and ‘mastery’ people seem to have of a field after
ingestinglicking like two facts is really disappointing.False dichotomy. There are credentialed doctors and scientists on both sides. It’s just that the actual research keeps coming down on the antivaxxer’s side.
Example: Henry Ford Health Dr. Marcus Zervos.
Based on what I see in this thread, I find more of an issue to be media. Mainstream media can walk the line of truth and falsehood and make people think a certain way. Anyone who sees that can be redirected to an online source, which can be anybody from Jane/John Infantbrain to legitimate scientists. Being an influencer doesn’t preclude being a specialist, academic, etc., but the average person isn’t going to determine or care for the difference.
Idiocracy has become a documentary.
Idiocracy had leaders who were actually wanting to make things better and hired the smartest people they could.
I’m not for or against vaccines. I was raised with my mother as a hard anti-vax and the rest of my family as a hard pro-vax, so I was used as an example a few too many times. I’ll meet in the middle.
The misguided notion that you can find some sort of truth by meeting verifiable falsehoods halfway, is like 90% of the problem.
I suppose
There is no “middle”
There are people who think vaccines are good, and there are idiots
Right. The middle between pants-on-head and sensible is like… Underwear on the outside? Donald duck with pantsgloves?
Masters degree in AI here.
Every day I feel like medical specialist during highest anti-vax craze. No matter what I say, no matter what kinda research and articles I cite social media and advertising simply scream louder and more often.
Same. AI/ML background long pre-dating GPT; trying to navigate my career is sending me to an early grave from the number of charlatans and rich idiots flooding every part of the industry, talking complete nonsense, and getting an army of devoted fans who make shit memes dissing “luddites”.
I can’t participate in any AI-related forums any more because of the sheer number of twats pontificating about nature of sentience, who think “backpropagating” is something you’d find at a swingers’ party.
Maybe if the people in control of AI weren’t quite literally the most evil people currently on the planet, more people would understand. Also the fact that they’re all trying to cram it into every aspect of our lives, despite it being a demonstrable failure doesn’t help.
Says someone on alt right pedo platform Twitter. He’s not wrong, but come on. The irony.
With a blue check. Which means they paid the pedo techno fascist.
Therapist here w/ Masters. Sick of life coaches.
That is one of the most damaging scams in existence. Any jackhole can hang out a sign and call themselves a life coach. They are the homeopaths and chiropractors of psychology.
I feel like pointing at “influencers” and putting the blame on them isn’t really correct. They are probably more of a symptom.
Whose fault is it that some random blogger is being treated the same as people who studied something for decades?
E.g. the media owned by the rich or the governments
bought“lobbied” by the rich.A few crazy people will always exist, but currently the “inmates are running the asylum” and they actively promote this garbage. Just look at RFK.
The idea that its scientists vs bloggers was created by PR firms. It’s scientists and bloggers vs scientists and bloggers. Both sides have geniuses and idiots.
No, not in the cases of vaccines or climate change. The incredibly overwhelming majority of scientists are on the plainly correct side of both of those, they don’t have to be geniuses for that, just somewhat educated.
People so fragile they can’t live with the idea other people might be smarter than they are
Spot on, this is literally how society rotted away.
Nope, that was unfettered capitalism.
Feels to me like they are related, rugged individualism is much easier to sell to people who feel this way.
People so fragile they can’t live with the idea other people might be smarter than they are
Need to be ridiculed, and their opinions ignored.
Even the fucking witches know to trust the virologists
I like the witches who tell people to buy carbon monoxide detectors. One time I told a patient with abusive auditory hallucinations that her nighttime zyprexa was gonna shut the stupid bastard up and she was welcome to ascribe whatever spiritual interpretation she liked to that.
