I’m not defending the guy; I’ve lost my taste for his content and I think it’s entirely fair if he ends up deplatformed. I just think it’s ~noteworthy~ that everyone seems to be debating the repercussions he should face for a transgression they know *absolutely nothing* about

re: Jacob Geller

I find it alarming that so many people have described the incident as rape when no one actually knows what the accusation entailed. “sexual assault” is a very broad term and some acts that fall under that umbrella are orders of magnitude worse than others

[savelli @savellos99]

I took another look at the document and other students faced harsher consequences just for *misconduct.* Geller’s punishment is pretty much the lightest on the list. Maybe it’s because, as he said, he complied with the investigation

it is so clear that no one involved in this “discourse” has actually watched this woman’s videos. she’s not talking about kids who like anime or warrior cats or whatever. she’s talking about kids who come to school smelling like literal shit because they’re not bathing properly

Every time I tell someone I’m a screenwriter they go “I have an idea for a movie!” Yeah me too bozo, about a million of ‘em. There’s a reason you can’t copyright ideas, only their EXPRESSION. Prompting is not writing. Writing is writing. Writing is hard, and that’s why it matters

an author using AI to write their book is NOT a real writer and it doesn’t matter if they came up with the scenes in their mind and just used AI to organize them as a story when that is the whole point of being a writer

all i know is the average person would be shocked at how unwell you can become and not die. at how unwell you can become and still look fine. things aren’t that black and white and you should listen to those who live in the grey area.

This is a non-space. No one feels any sense of ownership over it. Not the businesses around it, not the city, certainly not the people who only drive past it. No one will ever walk along it, and therefore no one will ever care about it.

Our country is filled with non-spaces.

“bootlicker” might be an obsolete term now. people who justify/celebrate extrajudicial murders by ICE or cops or whoever aren’t just deferent to authority. they’re living vicariously through these pigs and reveling in the fantasy of murdering whoever they don’t like

From the perspective of a caveman or even farmer from few hundred years back - most of our jobs (us city dwellers) are like UBI (universal basic income).

You cannot convince a 15th century person that what a typical MBA grad does is a legit profession, let along one of the highest paid ones.

In light of what is happening with AI - I have had an lightbulb moment - that Graeber’s “bullshit jobs” are actually a form of UBI. We need bullshit jobs to sustain the economy and the society.

Just growing food, packaging it and feeding the 8B people of earth needs just 1-2% of the population to do it. What will the rest 98% do?
Initial days of COVID lockdown showed us how the economy needs to constantly “move”. It collapses if stationery. If for even few weeks, people stop spending money, entire economy stalls, GDP free falls, everyone’s income becomes zero because everyone’s income after all comes from someone else spending money.

So when people say that “if AGI automated everything then we need UBI” I guess they are not realising that before AI there has been electricity, computers, Internet, industrial manufacturing and lots of other paradigm shifts that have already done a wave of “automate everything”, and the human race just went ahead and invented yet another hundred million bullshit jobs to keep the displaced population busy with something to keep the economy moving. And we will do exactly the same after AGI as well.

literally and like i try not to say it too much bc to the uneducated ear it sounds crazy to hear that the starz pirate show, black sails, is the best show of all time. but... it's not an extreme hyperbole thing, it's serious, it's IN that conversation.

The reason “the left” can’t produce effective counterparts to figures like Andrew Tate is because he and his ilk tell young men that they are inherently superior to all women, period. That message is *always* going to be extremely persuasive to a certain portion of young men.

“AI isn’t going away.” “We need guns no matter how many shootings there are.” “Covid is here to stay.” None of you want better, do you? Do you realize none of this has to happen? All of this is preventable. We can all demand better and do better. None of this is inevitable.
