@TheDarthVex@sailormoononice Idk man I don't think we are quite at the "starve, kill yourself, get killed, or have to kill other people" stage of societal collapse, that's about as bleak as it gets
@Thesiffs@BigChungus164@colindoeswork Since you're so much better than everyone else, why are you wasting your valuable time arguing with strangers online instead of out there building something?
Am I the only one completely unbothered by all these "the world is ending" posts? I'm 37 years old, and the world has "ended" 10 times or more since I was born. 😂
@CousinVegeta@Raldi616@Polymarket At every job I've ever had, this type of shit happened all the time, at least every few months. Not just Workday but various systems, even essential ones It's not some biblical level extinction event, tech is imperfect and always has been. Means relatively nothing
@WeazyCough Hi again!
It's been resolved, although of course there will still be a huge logistical nightmare getting people where they need to go. Sometimes shit happens.
What say you now, verified account? Still feeling smug? 😊
Can everyone calm the fuck down please? I totally understand panicking if you are traveling or have loved ones who are, but I'm so over this doomer end of the world shit. This happened in 2023 as well and apparently everyone forgot
People with blue checks are posting about the end of the world. Everyone else on my feed is talking about Russell Brand, politics, AI, health trends, and whether or not a Japanese cosplay is racist. Who gets paid for engagement?
@IreneBertoni66 X's algorithm detects what you interact with and serves more of it even if it's simply expanding a long post on mobile. Because it knows the post caught your eye, it thinks you might see whatever ads are in the imbedded in the comments. It's kind of dystopian but (1/2)
@IreneBertoni66@WeazyCough Verified accounts can receive payment for engagement on X if they have enough traffic. Therefore, they are financially incentivized to post shocking, inaccurate, controversial or fear-inducing content as it receives more engagement.
@Jacknelsongcfl@WeazyCough I posted this under his comment too:
The FAA deployed a new AI system called SMART for air traffic control today which apparently hasn't functioned functioned as expected.
🔥Put the FAA ground stop in this context and tell me if you think this might be what happened:
The FAA rolled out some kind of AI (“SI”) flight management system or communication system and during peak traffic hours the system lost its mind in some way. And what I mean by that is it started making errors or started advising things that human beings knew could be extremely problematic or catastrophic.
They had no choice but to take it off-line immediately. Now they’re going to need time to re-upload the old system.
Americans don’t hear anything much from our government for about two hours because they have to figure out a way to spin this to not make it their own fault.
They have to figure out a way to hide the fact they were experimenting with AI and it failed.
Think of the fallout if us civilians found out about that - if this hypothesis is true. :And if it is AI related which company’s is it?)
We would be afraid to fly.
The AI bubble would burst even more. Aviation and AI stocks would plummet. Another scandal.
Most importantly to Trump and his cabinet they would lose millions of dollars. And the democrat majority next year would demand more AI oversight immediately which is a big loss for this Cabal of oligarchs. Trump doesn’t care about us so he felt no immediate need to give us reassurance that there wasn’t some kind of terror threat. So he trotted out the only guy still around on a Friday afternoon to go & act as a shield for the administration while they figure out how to spin this & how to blame Biden, Obama & the Dems.
This is my final guess as to what happened today.
I have no concrete basis for any of this. I’m just going off pattern recognition, my own commercial aviation experience, and the psychology and psychopathy of Trump & friends.
Thoughts?
Never forget that you can completely change your financial situation, your appearance, your environment and the direction of your life in the next 6 months. You're not stuck.
@BeerusGroyp This is great advice actually. Counting days is counterintuitive because if you slip up once, you're expected to restart your count as if you've "lost" all your progress. It's a toxic ideology from the 12 step cult.
