Mod here . I found this amusing, and op is good sport, so fuck y’all I’m leaving it up. 😁

It’s just low effort posting for amusement. The less you think about it, the better.

Goddamnit. I’m gonna get sooo many reports from this post.

The worst part for me? Fuckin beans.

I’m gonna need you to clarify your point some more

But you didn’t. And not only does the first half of your comment contribute nothing to the conversation, but your second half is just outright disrespectful.

Please refrain from both aspects of such commentary in the future. They’re not conducive to good discussion in this community.

Also want to point out that the only other option was to die.

Tell some men.

Not this bullshit again, I swear to fuckin God

Just going to go on record here. It’s not okay to harass anyone here because they’re autistic. We’re not opening this door, it gets ugly real quick. Further commentary will result in comment removal and potential bans.

No, it doesn’t matter if they’re billionaires. There’s plenty of actual reasons you can give them shit. Don’t touch autism or any other form of hate speech.

After all, if it wasn’t delicious, why would they dye it that delicious pink?!?

I was told there’d be free acid here for showing up. Where’s mine?

You’re missing my point, though. You pay lip service to wanting something to be done about this, but all your words only spout doom and gloom in a defeatist attitude. Your words actively betray your supposed intentions.

If you actually wanted progress in this matter, you would benefit from changing your messaging. Otherwise, you just look like every other troll that’s actually pro-nazi.

So which is it?

My dude. I don’t think you’re fully aware of the scope here.

To give context, decades ago, people were saying the same shit about Photoshop.

Before that, it was digital printing in general. Decades before that, photography. Same for other media. Special effects in TV and Movies. Hell, motion pictures. Go even further back, you’ve got the Luddites. If you’re not familiar with those poor bastards, give the subject a read.

There’s no real fight against this tide you see coming. This “AI infection.” Technology progresses regardless. Like every complexity in life, there are good and bad effects, and whether we like it is irrelevant in the grander scheme. The Luddites got absolutely fucked, and the industrial revolution kept churning.

But let’s table that discussion of “if I can do something”, and get to “why”.

a lot of people Do NOT like the AI bullshit

That’s fair. I am often one of them. But why should I value these opinions more than those of others? We already have a system for people to express those opinions. It’s the voting system. And unless something violates our very, very tiny ruleset, I have no reason to intervene. If enough people want to change that rule set, then we’ll discuss it and make the changes.

But until then, let’s let people post their shit. Some might like it.

You raise fair points, but I want to circle back to intent. Because what you’re advocating in your last sentence is hurt by your original comment.

The whole point of “it’s happened once before” is to show that something is actually possible. It’s not theoretically possible, there’s a real world example to show it.

Bringing up counterexamples does not change that.

You can show one counterexample. Ten. A hundred. A thousand examples of when something didn’t work. They don’t negate the one time it did.

And to go even further, you should frame all those counterexamples as simply learning lessons. Examples on how not to do it. Because the framing here matters. If you want someone to be smart and try to find a solution, you frame history that way.

If you’re trying to discourage others from trying, you do it the way you initially did.

Based off latest rumors, Gaben is going to kick the door in and yank that trophy right off the shelf.

I’m sorry, are you gatekeeping shitposting? Do you really understand how much dumber shit gets posted in these things? For weeks, we had the stupidest fucking posts about beans. Fuckin beans.

And everyone ate that shit up.

So yeah I’m not touching the slop bullshit, regardless of how it was made, since it’s not actually breaking any rules. You don’t have to like the post. I don’t have to like the post. But others do.

And if this bothers you, unsubscribe. Otherwise, be respectful.

Thanks for the thoughtful response. You’ve raised great points and changed my mind. I’ll be removing these moving forward and will remove this one after sending this comment.

Hi there. I understand your perspective on the matter. On the other hand, I don’t consider this community active enough to be too restrictive on content. This place gets an average of one post a day. Op has made comments, indicating they’re an actual human being, and the post has not actually broken any rules.

Considering that this post has brought forth actual discussion, I’m going to leave it up.

You’re welcome to post other content from other preferred sources if you like.

This is one of the most wholesome posts I’ve ever seen on this sub. Thank you, op!

Goddamnit. This is going to be stuck in my head all day.
