@heat_ball@ChandlerParsons You make fair points. I dunno I feel like a public apology and contextualizing things a bit might help. Just mild, light-hearted talk among friends. I just think losing a job in general is a drastic measure. If the players end up saying "no big deal" then people can move on.
@wil_da_beast630 I got circumcised when I was 4. I dunno man I miss pretending my penis was an elephants trunk. Dont see how it can get worse than that.
@BumpkinEsq I'm 99 percent sure the bragging extended well past the orgy and that's why these guys are in the position they're in. Almost no doubt that every single person in their mutual social circle and well beyond found out. There is no legal case but pretty certain major harm was done.
@katrosenfield I strongly suspect that part of this story that I haven't seen really addressed is certainty that some or all of the young men involved told others about the drunken orgy and that the young woman was badly hurt by that. Drunken remorse is different from reputational destruction.
@Tyler_A_Harper When you seriously contemplate how bizarre it is that 2 pound of flesh in our skulls produce subjective experience, really think about the fact that physical properties produce conscious experience, then ever more complex ai having it becomes completely plausible to me.
@ant_dracula@expatanon I am making mistake of speaking earnestly on this site. The "chatbot" isundergoing rapid transformation. Gpt 2 from 2020 and what we have right now a mere 6 years later is already evidence and who the hell knows what they're seeing with their internal models.
Reality is weird.
@clairlemon Ah, so a quarter century ago when they were teens and in their early 20s they fantasized on their message boards about a technology in the imagined distant future.
Very discrediting.
