    “Nobody knows how the slot machines work or where all the prize money comes from, not even the people making them.”

    Chinese AI is already better…

    My wife is Chinese, she watches so much dramas written by Chinese AI. America is already behind.

    Your American AI companies are taking all the money and pissing it away (You’re all aware of this…I wasn’t telling you I was just continuing my point).

    China has AI that is doing so much… But then they’re still investing in solar power.

    American politicians only care about funding the terrorist state of Israel.

    China actually is creating the future.

    I also hate looking at my wife’s phone and seeing a historical drama that looks mostly accurate then part way through gives a weird look.

    I hate AI in every form.

      People also watching a bunch of American generated bullshit, it says more about the state or people’s minds than to quality of generators.

      Its not the only evil they are care about. They also protect nonces.

        Yes, they do that too sadly.

        I’m not from England and I know that nonce means pedo. I hate that because I’d love to call my mates w Nonce and mean it as someone who has no god damned idea what they’re talking about…

        I’d use it like “You nonce cunt… Of course 2+2=4” I’ve got other words for my mates so I’ll live without it.

          Calling your mates a nonce isn’t entirely unreasonable here, it depends a lot on context. If you would call them a cunt, you could probably call them a nonce if there is context for it to be funny.

          Nonce cunt sounds odd though. Nonce and cunt kinda take the same place in the sentence so its one or the other. Fucking nonce, fucking cunt both work. You could probably go for noncey cunt.

          Also if you are in your teens literally any insult regardless of how logical it is, can be used on your mates.

            Hahaha well that’s a reality check being asked if I’m in my teens. My mates and I are all in our late 30’s we just get along through insults.

            Noncey cunt sounds perfect, I shall call him that the next time I see him in person.

      Oh god, my wife is the same. She used to watch endless historical drama and I already thought they all blended into one another… For people who don’t know, they have like 52 episodes per season.
      But now with AI I think it’s gonna be like freaking Eastenders and the like, with episodes every day or something. And I’m not sure she even notices or cares…

      AI is like nuclear : amazing science in the hands of complete sociopaths. It’s gonna be great.

    The slot machine companies say the slot machines are getting way too good, but too good to release. They say people should keep using the machines but they should slow down development, so that they can release slots that won’t be as good but will be “safe”. All the slot companies agree at the same time, and definitely wouldn’t release the best slot machine if it weren’t so dangerous.

    The only thing that interferes with this metaphor is that most people agree slot machines must be capable of actually doing what the manufacturers claim they can, and they have to let someone win once in a while.

      There are multiple places where the analogy falls apart.

      Executives aren’t using slot machines as a reason to fire thousands. Artists’ jobs aren’t being taken by slot machines. People aren’t posting about slot machines every single day on social media.
