Does anyone else see “removed” in this comment? Is the instance editing comments to censor certain words or is it just the user?

Nyan Cat, but different

No, he just said AI isn’t like human brains because its a “statistical machine”. What I’m asking is how he knows that human brains aren’t statistical machines?

Human brains aren’t that good at direct math calculation either!

Also he definitely didn’t explain what “lost art” is.

YT: Revanced & Firefox w/ extensions

Papers: SciHub ofc

Books: libgen, or zlib occasionally

Manga: Tachiyomi

Anime: 9anime usually

Anything else: consult the megathread :)

1. How do you know human brains don’t work in roughly the same way chatbots and image generators work?

2. What is art? And what does it mean for it to become “lost”?

“You want some chocolate with that sugar?”

Not to mention, what prevents a future release of the feature either turning the percentage to 0% or removing the hold-back entirely?

Imo thats like the main issue here. Google tweaks chromium changing a single number and everything goes to shit. This proposal is a trojan horse!

your devs will just write other server backend code that is forked off of yours that won’t “hold back”.

Isn’t it the client (i.e. the browser) that holds back randomly? The server for any service can’t force clients to send an attestation.

Rage is profitable!

I thought cities in the Netherlands were required to have public transit?

I’ve heard stuff like “communists want community”, but perhaps we are in different social environments. I will agree though that the manipulation of some terms might be more extreme than others.

Political conservatism obeys none of the other dictionary definitions. It’s just a label. It’s the label chosen by generations of influential public figures whose general philosophy is “Well someone has to be the king.”

Isn’t this kinda true of most politically-associated labels? Communism, socialism, capitalism, egalitarianism, progressivism… they can all be thought of as general ideas, but when someone actually uses them, they could be referring to a more specific concept, or twisting the idea a bit, or referring to a specific person’s definition of the idea and its kinda hard to know how to interpret it…

And which person from the 1950s

Hmmm… words used in not-satiric circumstances where the true meaning isn’t the intended meaning is a bit confusing…

Hmmm, I guess I don’t like the reasoning “extreme version of complicated idea is bad, therefore the idea is bad in general”. Like its fine to dislike an idea’s extremes, but it would be disingenuous to also dismiss its more moderate forms.

everyone is equal and thus should have equal rights and treatment under the law

Isn’t that like the definition of (clasical) liberalism?

The mechanistic reasoning might be plausible, but is there any actual examples of a modern capitalist society regressing back to some form of feudalism to any significant degree?

The point where I’d be worried is when a single company is the majority of a country’s GDP or has complete control over the government. The only examples I can think of that even get close to these possibilities are South Korea’s Chaebols or Hong Kong’s corporate voting block.

What about capitalism requires infinite growth? And what does it require infinite growth in? What happens when growth stagnates in a capitalist system? Does it suddenly not become capitalist anymore?

So you are defining an ambiguous term in order to better criticise it? That makes sense, but it might not convince people who have different definitions 🤔

Like I for example would consider a Co-Op where the employees own the company / have voting power over how its run to be a part of a capitalist system, hell, I’d even consider someone who makes a living as an artist where they own all their tools to be a part of a capitalist system… although I suppose that could also be considered socialist to some degree because the artist “owns” the means of production?

These definitions are kind of difficult to use…
