Yea, seems like a fun and quirky feature, but unfortunately I don’t think there’s anything big tech companies can do at this point to turn things around with public opinion given how utterly egregious their other sins have been (and continue to be).

I found some of my favourite bands by downloading mislabelled songs on limewire.

I have to admit, I have questions about the impact of spending too much time deep inside machine logic territory.

I think I’ve used Amazon a grand total of twice in my life. Got a cheap knockoff of what I actually ordered both times.

Should have just said that it already has female dwarfs and refused to elaborate.

I’m not certain that I possess the linguistic ability to adequately express the full magnitude of my feelings on this matter. Sharing my entire life with this wonderful, magical, creature who loves me back, is exactly what pushes my buttons. Nobody has to enforce that upon me.

Survival of the fittest is survival of those that cooperate

The question nobody ever asks about survival of the fittest is what actually makes someone fit to survive?

The big problem facing the corporate world is that they’re running out of space to expand, and so the new rage is all about rearranging what already exists into a more profitable configuration. The big hurdle to this is that we already have large segments of society which are arranged socially for the benefit and enjoyment of the population instead of maximizing profit metrics.

It may prompt people to recognizing things they had glossed over before.

That’s what people do because they were told so.

Nah, man, I happen to think that women are amazing and the idea of living with a woman who loves me is pretty damn cool.

This is a textbook example of why they staple rainbow flags to everything they do, so brain-dead thralls will leap to their defence as though their lives depend upon it.

Gee, maybe I picked that one because I was initially talking about restructuring “social constructs” by using the cis-normative family as an example.

Nah, that can’t be it. You’d better keep the corpo-knob spit polished just to be safe.

It’s just one simple example of current corporate culture that most people will understand.

CORPORATIONS ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND

DEI is a corporate initiative designed to restructure society so it can be more easily commodified and monetized, with a crudely drawn rainbow on it so that people will defend it like these corporate entities are somehow your friends.

We really just want the hets to stop trying to harm/kill people that are different from them

I know very well that this is what the majority of people want, but bad actors attempt to take advantage of the situation with bullshit, like DEI initiatives, which are really only thinly veiled plots to maximize profits that hurt people who just want to be left alone by weaponizing their lifestyles for political gains.

What bothers me is when people use that argument to advocate for replacing ‘constructs’ which evolved more or less naturally over tens of thousands of years, even before the dawn of civilization, with something deliberately engineered by individual humans. Is a cis-normative nuclear family the only way that it’s possible to live? Of course not, but it’s also what the vast majority of the population wants in their lives, which is why it’s the standard.

Language learning models are all about identifying patterns in how humans use words and copying them. Thing is that’s also how people tend to do things a lot of the time. If you give the LLM enough tertiary data it may be capable of ‘accidentally’ (read: randomly) outputting things you don’t want people to see.

I can’t wait until people find out that you don’t even need to train it on secrets, for it to “leak” secrets.

And people wonder why there’s so much push back against everything corps/gov does these days. They do not act in a manner which encourages trust.

You are once again building a flawed model of the dynamic at play here in an attempt to ease the discomfort you feel from encountering something that doesn’t make sense to you (why did I choose to join this community?). I’m not even attempting to build any counterarguments because the responses I’ve gotten don’t even attempt to understand what I’ve said in the beginning. To be utterly frank I just lack respect for people who think of themselves as any flavour of anarchist while still dreaming of a system as thoroughly rigid as the artificially created Internet. You pretend to hate the system while desperately trying to invent excuses for continuing to make yourself at home within it.
