Every time you deny yourself this kind of agency you are denying yourself your humanity.

The perpetual existence of greed is not a good enough reason to structure all of society around that singular trait.

There are so many bigger concerns than this.

AI won’t let you write good crime fiction because the guard rails will stop you from writing anything good.

Be more concerned about the kinds of AI slop novels that won’t be written because of “safety” alignment.

Why should less thought be put into things made for children?

Why do you think vibecoding and learning together with kids is putting less thought?

However, kids don't care too much about thought. They care a lot more about attention and fun

With these tools you get to the fun part faster and can give them a lot more attention

You also get to co-create with them and they get to express their creativity seeing results in realtime

Managers will be replaced by AI when people are willing to work for them. Does anyone really want that? Who the fuck wants to work for an unaccountable machine who you can’t grab a beer with after work? How much life are you willing to abstract away in the name of “efficiency”? To what end?

The exact same thing applies if you are a manager, do you really want a flock of loyal electric sheep to do your bidding? If you’re in management for control over others, how is that satisfying? If you’re in it to mentor, who comes after you? How?

Why does anyone want this? Our societies are already so mechanized and automated yet somehow we have less time than the average medieval peasant to enjoy our allegedly easier lives. What toil has been eliminated thus far?

Yeah, I'm still on the fence about how I feel about this. I mean LLMs are going to be potentially more fair, and there wouldn't be office politics and people being treated unfairly by an emotional easily-manipulated human boss.

Then again the office politics might even get WORSE when people try to trick an AI Boss into blaming someone else for a problem they created themselves. Then again the AI will have a superhuman knowledge of who checked in bad code that broke the product, etc. Lots and lots of trade-offs.

I am aware of the guidelines, considering how long I've been here. However, I have offered proof, that over 80% of the comments do not contribute anything and are exactly like those of Reddit.

The enshittification of reddit and its consequences has been a disaster for discussion boards across the internet

Much of the best science ever done was done in a military context.

Very true, among them: - Nuclear energy - Internet & GPS - Numerous medical advancements (rapid medical response techniques, advanced trauma care, etc.)

It's a dual-edged sword.

I'm not sure if this was intentional or not, but I bet a fair bit of metallurgy was learned producing a better sword.

> ChatGPT is the substitute for the first two doctors, not the third.

The third doctor used to behave more like the first two. In a world where ChatGPT replaced the rookies, how do we get good doctors?
