It is true that the Earth is round, much like it's true that an ongoing genocide against white people is occuring in South Africa.

Nice reference

People using a glorified Markov chain to fact check things is the most depressing shit I've had to endure in a while
-
It's also useless. Like even for coding I have to check all the code manually for basic mistakes like solving a 2x2 system. Is not even good for grammar/spelling correction. The dam thing changes whole phrases to something with similar but different meaning.
-
I find it mostly good enough for canned response and template type of tasks but not much more than that

Ehhh maybe a year or two ago. Modern systems are far more capable than you’re giving them credit for.
I’m not insinuating that they are perfect or even human level, because they’re not, but both of those complaints are things that AI can usually handle summarily.

Very predictable new form of brainwashing.

What's a grok?

Elon's pet LLM chat bot. The one that he recently tweaked temporarily(?) to spread South African "white genocide" conspiracy theories on Twitter because... well because what else would you expect Elon to spend his time doing?

… ask grok

We might be on track for that future though. The picture features a floor of ocean on which there seem to be artificial islands connected by tubes of glass and steel. So we see a future with heavy flooding and people needing to be protected from extreme weather events 24/7

Blade Runner was made in 1982 and set in 2019 Los Angeles. I think that in most ways, real life 2019 was closer to 1982 than Blade Runner 2019.

Culturally we are still living in the 80s, just a dragged out fun mirror version of it because everyone at the top of the pyramid refuses to believe there could be anything better than their idea of life and the malls are online.

I'm so tired of carrying the weight of their stupidity and ignorance.

Oh Lemmy. Will you ever crawl out of your pit of depression and despair?

When the world stops being a neoliberal hellscape

If corporate social media can be used to fuck up the world so horribly, then imagine what we can build now that we have p2p social media. Everybody is mad and should be mad. But we're easy to manipulate. We need to adapt how humans obtain and process information, and numerous p2p apps have demonstrated limits to corporate power.
New ways to communicate and coordinate are a really big deal. We're a tremendously productive species whose time is mostly being wasted. With what might seem like minor tweaks to our society, we can build this picture.

So edgy

This is an internet phenomenon, not lemmy specifically
-
It's infected the real life too. I've been observing like there's a quiet air of desperation around everyone which makes me sad.
-
It's much easier to avoid on other platforms to be fair.

No. Have you not been here for the past 2 years? It gets worse from here!

Can't change something if you don't know about it

Instead, we get Dark Age 2: American Boogaloo
