I just don’t see what argument you’re making.

Steel production is necessary for infrastructure. The point is AI is not efficient. It’s adding energy load to the grid in the supposed name of doing things more efficiently, but where is evidence of these gains. Data centres drawing huge amounts of power to do what exactly? Run LLMs?

There is the promise and reality. If it was replacing manual labour and freeing humanity to pursue arts, crafts, and scientific inquiry great. But there’s no evidence it’s doing that.

Virgin adult having a chad baby is some Bethlehem shit. Praise.

Just your run of the mill efforts to further the cause of chaos in the name of profit by good ol Uncle Sam.

We want to stop Iran from building a nuclear weapon by giving them every reason to acquire one.

It’s amazing. Good for capitalistic competition, but I do wish we could all just work together as well.

Jerrrrry!!

If the technology was energy efficient that’d be one thing, but we’re accelerating climate change and poisoning the planet in order to automate what are in many cases creative or intellectual jobs, not hard labor, and society isn’t even seeing any gains from it. Cost of living is higher than ever, and social programs are being cut like crazy.

So who actually benefits? See OP.

You’re right for the most part, but I find it hard to find much positivity.

When efficient “AI” models run locally and solve specific tasks without insane energy use, that’ll be different. That’s probably coming, once the bubble bursts. But the bubble isn’t going to take the people who created it down with them, as usual.

Nah, if this is headlines then you know they’re desperate for attention. Woke is so back.

Yesh.

I’d rather the one under her crotch.

Us luckier introverts have a friend with whom we can couch co-op.

Good.

I mean you know they exist.

Anyone who still supports him after everything he’s done either knows what they are doing. Even if they don’t, they have to be so woefully ignorant as to be in need of triage rather than anything else. How can we stop the maga faithful from doing damage? We can’t change them.

It’s your brother.

I know this is ironic, but this was how the anti-woke propaganda began - taking jokes like this literally, and whining that SJWs are losing their minds and biology this and that. There was never a looney left outside of grifting right-wingers and a tiny handful of very online university students.

You’re doing it wrong if bouncy cheeks are getting in the way. There’s a reason deepest penetration is from the back.

And so the billionaires win again as we fight to justify not being assholes to one another.

Europe seems to be doing alright. Democracy is doing better there than anywhere else right now. There are much worse organizations and regimes, and we need more unity in the world, not less, right now.

I hear too many people taking the stability of the modern world entirely for granted. Do be you want the US to remain the hegemon? China? Russia? Who?

And parenthood.

I really don’t envy proctologists’ visual memory.
