OK - I got one yanked a while back - still not perfectly clear on what things will get something you post pulled, but I think the last one had something to do with a title not matching source title?

Yeah, no.

[Merrick]

Yeah - sure - but it was just yanked and not a note anywhere to say, “here’s why it was yanked.” I’m not complaining - I don’t have any problem with rules - but if no one tells me why it was yanked, then... more work for the mods I guess.

The only AI I use...

[Merrick]

It took me a while to find it, but here’s yet more examples of failure of the educational system.

Did you saw that post I made a few days ago about what women from each state looked like, as per AI? It seemed directed by someone with bias to me. I think AI is programmed and the problem is who did the programming.

IMHO.

[grey_whiskers]

The women from Montana, Wyoming, and Washington were the best looking.

Okay. 😁🤙

“”””OK - I got one yanked a while back””””

Enough with these Boebert claims.

EMBRACE AI-—FIND OUT THAT SOON YOUR PROPERTY HAS NO WATER OR POWER. YOUR EQUITY JUST PLUMMETED TO ZERO.

How about LSMFT?

I think they morons have always been around us.

They’re just most visible thanks to video and social media.

And they reinforce each other.

My pet peeves:

No moon landing people
Various Jewish conspiracy claims
Chemtrails
Big Oil conspiracies
Basic economic illiteracy

It was a good joke!

[skinny old man]

Speak for yourself...

[Scrambler Bob]

How about LSMFT?

I kind of remember a slash in there.

And if you see one, you can hit the other guy if you call Lucky Strike No Strike Back, first.

Tough room.

Oh yes we saw the post. Very interesting.

First computers became part of our lives. Then the internet. Then cell phones. Now AI.

I like a lot of things about AI and it is part of our future. There are lots of benefits like advancements in medicine, tech, farming, finance, code, and helping people with disabilities.

My two biggest problems with AI are that fraudsters are already using it and are more savvy than the general population. By fraudsters I mean thieves, governments, politicians, left wing media, and liars in general.

My other problem is that people blindly follow AI and trust in it far too much. That also makes the first one worse.

"It's OFFICIAL! We are now too stupid and need to be saved by AI!"

Woe be unto those who forget how to heal the devices that do their thinking for them.

[Fledermaus]

Boy. Stupid.

I’m a 73 year old boomer.
I:m a 1st generation GEEK! Punch cards, metal perforated tape programming, weather tickertape forecast symbology, “fortran”.
As I evolved from IBM to Univac 1050-ii(that means two,ilhan), to HPIB electronic test equipment benches, to compaq desk weights, to Thinkpads, to government leased network systems.

I’m doing just fine without an electronic helper, idea stealer, grammatician, and what else the developer thinks you cannot do by yourself, except for necessary bathroom functions.
