Are you kidding? You do know that basically anything is hackable, right? And that’s why old people put tape and stuff over their cameras if they don’t just outright unplug them, right? It seems silly, but like… They’ve always been right, with their insane passwords and avoiding using their real names and stuff.

It’s probably bypassable too. And, anytime the microphone is used, you have no idea the multiple extents that data is being used for.

That cover picture looks an awful lot like BG3

Oooo a fresh take on the reality of the situation.

Yeah, that’s the notion I think I most identify with. I was like “support better behavior for a relatively low cost? Hmmm I guess so, there’s a huge value here and it feels like an olive branch”

And hoooo how wrong we all were. Never again will I ever trust one of these companies. Now, it’s me as a user and everything is transactional and always with a free alternative.

Same

Uh oh.

Is this…

Violence?

Yeah w7 is so easily hackable it’s insane. It’s like a flashing wide open door onto the entire network.

Fuck

Hopefully they don’t ever connect to the Internet…

throws self off building

AI is not inherently the problem. It is us that are the problem. But for now, the actions that an overwhelming majority chose to use AI for are just actions.

Like war. War is not inherently evil or bad. It can be used for good. But an overwhelming majority of the time is either used for evil or ends up that way.

Which is why I generally don’t like AI.

Use AI to help people fight the systems that are ruining society (ie capitalism, land lords, elon musk, inequality in society, scarcity, and a bad future), don’t MAKE that bad future happen. Too many people don’t think about the effects of their actions or inventions.

Recognizing cancer: takes away the human variable, and potentially leaves us unable to recognize that. It isn’t assuredly a negative, but also has massive socioeconomic implications that can render us victim to corporations with technology, amplifying an already existing terrible power imbalance in the healthcare realm.

Make workers more productive: fuck, bro. Do I even have to point out why raising the bar on that could be exacerbating a problem in society? Are you stupid?

Lessening parent burdens: sounds great, but now you have even more fundamental existence tasks relying on companies and tech. In society, we’re still trying to get everybody on the same page just for eating, let alone your naive optimism. Why not use AI to make healthcare better and more accessible for everybody? Or to eliminate fascism or to educate people on baseline infrastructure? Or even to figure out how to educate humans in all of our humanities access STEM knowledge really EFFICIENTLY?

And your last one “promote safety by helping recognize acts of disorder”.

…At this point, I can’t tell if this is a troll or you really are a bad person. Because HUMANS, who are much smarter and complex than AI are, are in power and are fucking things up. Now, you want to take that same paper-thin shitty philosophical grasp of our reality and apply it to an algorithm that identifies people? That sounds like a full on dystopia to me, complete with no privacy and stagnated society because of non evolving power dynamics and oppression.

I have an open mind about AI. Yours seems awfully closed to the reality and any responsibility you may bear by even promoting it to people who haven’t considered risks or the realities of how it is or wants to be used.

I’m all for doing good with it, but if you don’t have rocks for brains, you know that unless we progress as a society ahead or at least with AI, keeping social guardrails on it, and then ALSO considering and exercising extreme caution when inevitably creating A NEW FORM OF LIFE, then it’s overwhelmingly unethical, nearly evil.

Thank fuck

Holy shit!

What the fuck

It was bad enough when potential dates stalked you online.

Then it was shitty when bosses started doing it.

Then infuriating and decimating when potential employers started doing it.

And people were just … Okay with it for some reason.

And now the ACTUAL GOVERNMENT is doing this?

No. Actually no. This is only going to get worse. Literally stop and think about this for one minute, this is actually terrible and we have to put a stop to it.

There’s far too much stuff trying to control me and I’m fucking sick of it.

Shhhh stop giving it away. Pretty soon we’re gonna have that garbage here. We probably do and don’t even know it. When bots have become actually convincing… Ugh. The world is shit and I hate it

Except it’s cultural, too

You will Nazi it coming.

Excuse me for being a bad techie, but… Wtf is rss? I’ve been around since before dsl, and rss has never been something I’ve researched or understood.

I get that it’s a feed, i think? Is it like a file that is a subscription protocol?

This tech has been in TVs easily for the past ten years.

Did you know this stuff is in most modern cars, too? Fuck. EVERYTHING listens to you now.

I hate to use this phrase, but, back in my day, we used to call this SPYWARE and it was treated as a virus - it was highly unacceptable by people.
