We’re seriously fuckin’ doomed, as a species. All the morons are outsourcing their decision making to people who’ve learned to game the system exclusively for profit.
It really is nightmarish. I don’t know how else to say it. Something’s gotta give, but I’m afraid it’s not going to.
Honestly, this is nothing new.
Listening to ChatGPT is a solid improvement over listening to Tucker Carlson.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not good! I don’t exactly trust the Sam Altmans of the world. But this is the same circus, different clowns.
…never stop proving you are the stupidest fucking people in the whole world america
At least they’re not asking grok.
ugh. but they probably are, aren’t they?

That’s so smart. You don’t have to do any thinking. Pretty soon all thought will be eliminated and AI can tell us how to do everything from how to tie our shoes to how to structure our society. That way we just do what we’re told and can be ruled by a handful of billionaires. Smart. /S
most people don’t enjoy thinking. they also don’t enjoy running marathons.
because both things are painful. they are also time consuming.
they only becoming enjoyable or worthwhile when you have a sufficient level of practice. for someone who is a couch potato, running a marathon is impossible without months or years of hard work, and they also likely think marathon running is stupid and pointless and there is likely something ‘wrong’ with people who run marathons.
thinking and using your mental faculties are no different than your physical ones.
Can confirm. Am dumb and lazy.
I cannot imagine someone not being VERY sure how to vote in this next American election.
Lemme guess. Blue no matter who?
Facebook in one ear and chatgpt in the other. We are doomed.
On the last election in my country, I’ve visited tents set by 10 different political parties that are entering the election just to see how would they try to convince me, if I went to them as an uncertain voter that’s warm to their party. It was a genuine eye-opener regarding what these parties do to influence uncertain voters which especially matters in my country because on polls, people that are uncertain make up %12-16, which will tip elections exactly when it matters.
3 parties instantly tried to recruit me as a party member within the first minute, 5 parties we actually had a discussion that 2 of which had a roadmap they could present right there, 2 parties treated it as a gift merch with their names on to boost their visibility operation, on one party the dude there had no idea what their ideology is and just said “trust me man this dude is solid. Vote him”, one party just badmouthed an opposing party in the whole discussion and didn’t mention a single thing they would improve.
No amount of AI could give that amount of representation I got right there.
Ballot language is crafted to be intentionally misleading and political ads are nothing but hyperbole bullshit.
I’ll admit I am a little stumped myself. Do I vote against republicans early or wait until voting day? What’s going to be harder for them to steal?
What could possibly go wrong.
In an ideal world where it still exists it would just give them approved links to the candidates policies and voting history but we all know that’s not what’s happening.
I’ll play devil’s advocate here and say that for people who use AI to make this decision, it’s going to make them decide better.
If you are the type of person who has to ask an AI this question, you probably aren’t capable of making a good decision on your own. In that sense, I agree with you.
That being said, LLMs are being manipulated by billionaires to protect the system that keeps them rich and powerful. They will give bad advice by design.
