God I wish this dork would fuck off already, along with the rest of the AI bullshit currently making investors and other business-wankers the world over cum themselves dry. It’s fucking embarrassing.

Wait, so why wouldn’t they (and others trump goes after) be willing to cave without a fight?

We just watched them cave immediately without a fight, and then revert their decision after having “thoughtful conversations” behind the scenes that we’re not privy to.

We haven’t seen any victory, any pushback against this trampling of free speech, any principled disagreement. We’ve seen an immediate kowtowing.

I don’t know what those conversations behind the scenes entailed. I don’t know the future. But I’m going to predict the show that gets returned to air will be (even more) neutered. They won’t upset the administration again.

Lol, and now we get to watch everybody buy their memberships again and the company will move forward like nothing ever happened.

Honestly I find their use of “dogpile” very offensive. A pile of dogs?? How rude. Besides which, my sister is a complete and utter dog and I don’t believe the mod in question has any right to talk about her hemerrhoids that way.

Personally, I block people who espouse things I believe are genuinely spiteful, hateful, or shitty. Generally, I use the block button to “curate” my experience with the intention that I can use Lemmy as brief escapism when I’m in the bathroom or on the train without having my mood affected by somebody posting something shitty.

I don’t block anyone for normal disagreements, because I’m a relatively normal adult and as such that sort of thing doesn’t bother me.

You seem personally upset about other people drinking low-sugar drinks 😂

That’s so good to hear! What’s the role?

Oh right. I thought as much but hadn’t seen fash-fash before so wasn’t sure if it was a new thing haha

What’s a fash-fash?

And that is because they get their vast, innumerable sums of digital money from world governments! Human people are allowing an advertising and surveillance tool to Wormtongue its way into their heads and their lives because it breathlessly encourages and agrees with everything they think.

I just don’t believe that our perceptions and ability to handle enthusiastic sycophantic agreement is evolved enough yet to combat something like this. I could see it being intoxicating to anyone for everything they say to be agreed with, confirmed, and called genius. I don’t necessarily blame the people falling for it (though I do think adults who fall for it are a bit sad and need to grow up a bit), but it’s definitely going to be massively convenient for governments to have their citizens just voice everything they’re thinking.

Sort of like Minority Report but everybody says their own future crimes outright to a little robot butler instead.

Sam Altman belongs in prison. His machine encouraged and guided a child to kill themselves. His machine actively stopped that child seeking outside help. Sam Altman belongs in prison. Sam Altman does not need another $20,000,000,000,000. He needs to go through the legal system and be sentenced and sent to prison because his machine pushed a child to suicide.
