Also, a lot of people just don’t have time. I don’t mean “they have a busy schedule and don’t want to reschedule”. I mean there is a significant preventative of the population who camper afford to take time off from work.

Many hourly employees don’t have vacation time. And they can’t afford to miss a single day of work. They may even be retaliated against (or at least think they will) for missing work.

America is fucked.

Also, because of the lack of time, they might not even be aware of what’s happening.

It felt like the right way to approach the topic. AI has become so pervasive, I’m not even sure I could search for it without simultaneously using AI.

Excelled point. I think there are some legitimate uses of AI. Especially in image processing for science related topics.

But for the most part, almost every common use is unethical. Whether it be the energy demands, (and its contributions to climate change), the theft of intellectual property, the spread of misinformation, and so much more. Overall, it’s a huge net negative on society.

I remember hearing about the lawyer one. IIRC chatGPT was citing laws that didn’t even exist. How do you not check what it wrote? You wouldn’t blindly accept predictive word typing with your phones keyboard and autocorrect. So why would you blindly trust a fancier autocorrect?

I’d book a trip on a tall ship. I found one a while back called the Bark Europa. It’s one of the few ships that goes to Tristan da Cunha, the most remote civilization in the world.

Its already expensive ($10,000+) and even more expensive if you want to go to the arctic. Unfortunately, I have celiacs, so the only way I’d be able to do it, is if I paid a stupid amount of money.

KDE has two browser that they already maintain. Based on the QtWebEngine. I’d love to see more development on them.
