  • This feels really psychotic. All of this really makes me want to question reality. Are we in a simulation? Are we an experiment by an advanced alien race, and they’re tweaking parameters to study us?

    Trump is like a grade school bully, in a lord of the flies scenario. He’s got all this power and he’s bringing in his bully friends and they’re doing shit grade school bullies would do with all this power.

    And all the people who voted for him…

    None of this makes any sense. The end is nigh?



  • That yes, but also more.

    One positive aspect of social media is showing the young how the world really works, to an extent I think.

    Poor immigrants are generally in a more uninformed and desperate survival situation. Many probably aren’t of the mindset “fuck slaving away 14hrs a day for shit pay to make a billionaire richer”. They just generally don’t think that way yet.

    I personally would rather die than be forced to work in those conditions. I sympathize with them and wish they didn’t have to either. But they’re still currently the ones more desperate and willing to suffer.

    I would be willing to help with farm work however, if the pay was significantly better, 4-6hrs per day, 2-3 days per week. But normalizing this would necessitate eradicating billionaires and even hundred millionaires. Obviously not gonna happen.

    I’m just sayin’ it’s more than just white kids are lazy. At least I hope so.




  • will also make nonsense mistakes that don’t even make sense

    It would blow things up even faster

    We are already on the way to the dollar collapsing

    Humans are already doing and causing all this.

    they have no capacity to reason nor analyze

    Nobody thinks LLMs are intelligent or conscious or able to reason, other than stupid people.

    It’s a software tool. The anti-ai cult is way overthinking it. It’s insanely valuable and impressive to me as an engineer at small tasks. Fails at large tasks, but generally gets close at 80-90% which is undeniably impressive for what it is, an unintelligent machine learning LLM software tool. It’ll either improve, or something else better will come along to replace it.

    Would you trust an LLM to manage your own monthly budget numbers and categorize things properly?

    Sure, as a software tool to assist in the same way I might use any other software tool to make life easier. You should probably check and verify the results to verify correctness.

    At the end of the day, I don’t really care. I sympathize much more with the accelerationist attitude, then protection of the status quo. If your argument is using LLMs will bring about a downfall of the system in any way, well then I can only get so erect. Hook it to my veins please.

    Even by your argument, we have imbeciles like trump elected as the president of the United States, the worlds most powerful economic and military empire. Religious wars are still a thing in 2025. Putins oligarchy dictatorship is killing Ukrainian civilians, kidnapping children, and torturing POWs. This place is a fucking clown show. Let it burn.

    I’m not arguing AI is intelligent or a save all for anything. I only comment on the anti-ai cult stuff as it seems more like crowd mentality nonsense. Let them use LLMs to analyze financial markets or whatever. It ain’t like skynet where they just turn it on and walk away, lol. I truly and honestly don’t think it could get any worse than the system we currently have though.

    Meh.






  • Bottom right pic hits hard. I plan to die in some fashion long before that. Fuck planning or saving for retirement if it doesn’t matter.

    In other news, Denmark raised their retirement age to 70 recently, and our conservatives in the US have been squawking about the same. LOL.

    What the fuck is the point of this shit existence for anyone who can’t become rich as a celebrity or wall street psycho? 90% of us are just here so the wealthy can have yachts, Lamborghinis, and mansions.

    This place sucks.
