How anyone could trust them at this point blows my mind, outside of people who need a fucking hail mary like those with neurological disorders.

Idk. I don’t know if I’ll be able to stop from being a bigot towards people who get chips in their brain. Like I simply do not think I will be capable of holding my tongue. Again, unless the chip is literally the only reason they can live a normal life, those people shouldn’t be treated like people.

Cashapp ain’t gonna do shit

So, I don’t know if there’s some kind of psychological phenomenon at play here — but it sounds like something very similar to a circumstance my mom went through (albeit, the stakes were much different).

She used to smoke, and when she decided she wanted to have a kid (eventually me) she gave it up. What she told herself was that if she quit and wanted to start back up at 65, ok? Who cares, she’s already old at that point so it’s not like it’s worse than having smoked for the previous 45 years.

Eventually never went back to them. She is actually repulsed by cigarettes now.

I think what I take from that is my mom didn’t really give up cigarettes, at least not psychologically. In her mind she could go back at any time and there was no issue, she’d just go back to not smoking (and she didn’t even do that, she just quit). I wonder if maybe a similar thing happened to you here? You gave yourself a goal so far ahead in the future that you also gave yourself ample time to grow — even if that goal was inevitably death. It’s almost like sewerslide was your way of equalizing the playing field.

Idk, I could be wrong — I’m glad you didn’t go through with it, though.

Fucker

Kevin O’Leary should be drawn and quartered.

Listen man, I just figured you did the quick math — it wouldn’t occur to me to round something when I can just directly reference the article.

I just thought it was funny man, relax.

The math was not the funny part, the funny part was them discussing something that had already been included in the article.

When asked about their purposes for using AI-generated content in daily life (multiple answers allowed), the most common overall response was information retrieval and research at 76.4%, followed by writing and editing texts at 33.9%, and seeking advice at 23.3%. Information retrieval remained the top choice across all age groups, but seeking advice ranked second among teenage girls and third among women in their 20s to 40s and men in their 30s.

38.6% of respondents said they “very trust” or “somewhat trust” advice from AI-generated sources regarding relationships and social interactions. Trust levels were higher among younger generations, with over half of those in their teens and twenties expressing this trust. Among teenage girls, the figure reached 63.1%.

As I say above, it’s funny to me that neither of them translated the article.

No, their math is right — it says so in the article itself.

Correct, my question is because the article outright states the number:

38.6% of respondents said they “very trust” or “somewhat trust” advice from AI-generated sources regarding relationships and social interactions. Trust levels were higher among younger generations, with over half of those in their teens and twenties expressing this trust. Among teenage girls, the figure reached 63.1%.

Going off saying ‘you don’t understand the numbers’ when neither of you have translated the article seemed genuinely funny to me.

Edit: I should say, I recognize you understand the numbers — I was not calling out your math.

Is this a joke?

Positively impacting shitty people’s lives is, in fact, shitty.

You know mimes can speak, right? Like the mime could just end the act.

Gabe is a billionaire. He collects yachts.

The cracks have been there for years, we just wanted to believe that they weren’t because when we do acknowledge them we acknowledge that all of our money has gone to the parasite class.

Edits: words are hard, can’t decide how I want to say this — you get the picture.

“You gonna eat that?”

Type 2 fun, or maybe Type 3 if you have… idk the word, decency? Human decency, I guess?

I say I’m fatmaxxing when I eat a bunch of food — that’s about the only way I’ll use ‘maxxing’ as a term. I actually just hate the trend, but that’s more because I hate 4chan than the term itself.

Blockchain technology never should have been called a currency. Blockchains have legitimate uses, being a currency is not one of them — despite the zeitgeist.

The suggestions that are being used as placeholders for numbers.

A lot of techbros are convinced having a watch on makes people take you more seriously.

I think I should try to be less provocative with my words. Stomping into a conversation with loaded language is not the best way to get my points across, thank you for your demeanor.

It’s probably like a sleeper activation phrase to me at this point and I got annoyed.

I’m sorry, I specifically choose terms like this to set people off. I want them to figure out what actually triggers them about how I’m using the phrase and whether or not it’s valid.

I would just like us all to be a little more aware about the whats and whys surrounding things we get emotional about. Otherwise our emotions will inevitably be used against us, directly or indirectly.
