The average IQ is 100 because it is designed to always have the average at 100%. If magically everyone became exactly 20% better at IQ tests tomorrow, the average IQ would be adjusted and still be 100.
Smart argument.

Yep, a lot of people seem to forget that these Machines act like this because a human told them to.
Because, you know… They are machines.

Do you really think those data centers wouldn’t have been built if AI didn’t exist? Do you really think those municipalities would have turned down the same amount of money if it was for something else but equally destructive?
What I’m hearing is you’re sick of municipal governance being in bed with big business. That you’re sick of big business being allowed to skirt environmental regulations.
But sure. Keep screaming at AI. I’m sure the inanimate machine will feel really bad about it.

Stop drinking the cool aid bro. Think of these statements critically for a second. Environmental harm? Sure. I hope you’re a vegan as well.
Loss of media literacy: What does this even mean? People are doing things the easy way instead of the hard way? Yes, of course cutting corners is bad, but the problem is the conditions that lead to that person choosing to cut corners, the problem is the demand for maximum efficiency at any cost, for top numbers. AI is is making a problem evident, not causing it. If you’re home on a Friday after your second shift of the day, fuck yeah you want to do things easy and fast. Literacy what? Just let me watch something funny.
Do you feel you’ve become more stupid? Do you think it’s possible? Why wouild other people, who are just like you, be these puppets to be brain washed by the evil machine?
Ask yourself. How are people measuring intelligence? Creativity? How many people were in these studies and who funded them? If we had the measuring instrument needed to actually make categorizations like “People are losing intelligence.” Psychologists wouldn’t still be arguing over the exact definition of intelligence.
Stop thinking of AI as a boogieman inside people’s heads. It is a machine. People using the machine to achieve a mundane goal, it doesn’t mean the machine created the goal or is responsible for everything wrong with humanity.
Huge increase in inequality? What? Brother AI is a machine. It is the robber barons that are exploiting you and all of the working class to get obsenely rich. AI is the tool they’re using. AI can’t be held accountable. AI has no will. AI is a tool. It is people that are increasing inequality. It is the system held in place by these people that rewards exploitation and encourages to look at the evil machine instead. And don’t even use it, the less you know, the better. If you never engage with AI technology, you’ll believe everything I say about how evil it is.

Do you think hammers grow out of the ground? Or that the magically spawn the building materials to work on?
Everything we do has a cost. We should definitely strive for efficiency and responsibile use of resources. But to use this as an excuse, while you read this in a device made of metals mined by children, is pretty hypocritical.
No consumption is ehical under capitalism, take responsibility instead for what you do with that consumption.

Or just let it go. Enjoy the present and realize you can’t predict the future.
Any situation when an arrangement like this becomes useful, means you’ll have much worse and much more important things to concern yourself with.

No. It doesn’t benefit artists.

I hope you realize they aren’t fighting for the rights of artists. They are fighting for their exclusive right to exploit artists.

- Comment on Socially inept, introverted employees. How do you survive the workplace? Because I’m in dire need of some serious advice. 1 week ago:
Are you implying that Thor is autistic like OP? Because he very much hasn’t stated so himself not ever talked about the topic as far as I’m aware.
I say this because Thor is very much a narcissist and equating this two things seems pretty disingenuous. The reason Thor is in a spiral is completely different to what OP is going through.
At least it doesn’t sound like OP used his massive influence to harm a small movement out of childish spite and was then punished by their arrogance, while completely unable or unwilling to understand maybe they are not perfect people and gamers.
For OP: Maybe you’re autistic, maybe just introverted. But like some other poster said, the unfortunate reality is that, in most jobs, it doesn’t matter what you know, but who you know, and most supervisors will pick someone they like over someone that’s a good worker.
We are also only hearing your side of the story which might be painting a different picture to what people on the other side see.
It’s also completely possible it’s actually unrelated to you and it’s them just looking for an excuse to move/fire people while skirting around Union protections.
My only recommendation for OP is, next time make sure you get whatever they say in writing. If it’s not on writing, it didn’t happen, for better or worse.
If you’re looking to build relationships at work, I’d say you need to put in an effort and figure out some way to enjoy those social spaces, it doesn’t have to be the same way everyone else does. But no one is going to enjoy talking to you if you don’t enjoy talking to them.
You don’t have to, of course, but your coworkers don’t have to either. It takes two to dance.
