We can't stop now! The commons haven't been sufficiently tragedied!

Ahhh, good ol' productive procrastination!

Oh man I would have loved to be in that conversation. Instead of cringing, you start walking them through some of the more advanced corollaries that proceed from that one realization. Keep going until you break them. At that point, you can start having actual interesting conversations with them.

Allegedly a terrorist. The trial isn't over yet.

And the complaint has two parts - first, that Luigi is being labelled a terrorist, and SECOND, that the political murderer was NOT charged with terrorism when the murders very clearly were politically motivated.

The purpose of a system is what it does.

Erm. I'm trying to clear up what I thought looked like misconceptions you have about AI in regards to real-world applications, but I seem to have come on too strong, and I apologize; I have a tendency to put on a know-it-all attitude and it's something I'm trying to work on.

Have a good day, I'll leave you alone now.

you called me a robot racist.

Looking up the most common answer isn’t intelligence, there is no understanding of cause and effect going on inside the algorithm

In order for that to be true, the entire dataset would need to be contained within the LLM. Which it is not. If it were, a model wouldn't have to undergo training.

AI implies intelligence

You seem to be mistaking 'intelligence' for 'human-like intelligence'. This is not how AI is defined. AI can be dumber than a gnat, but if it's capable of making decisions based on stimulus without each set of stimulus and decision being directly coded into it, then it's AI. It's the difference between what is ACTUALLY called AI, and when a sci-fi show or novel talks about AI.

See, the funny thing though is that in this specific situation, the workers were legally there. They had gone through the proper channels. They had work permits. This has nothing to do with the law and everything to do with racism, xenophobia, and a power-tripping ICE.

So you're not wrong, but now even the people who are doing it right are getting punished.

There is significantly higher pressure to conform to societal norms there, including misogynistic views on a woman's role and a more stratified social hierarchy - but there's also a belief that government exists to support society instead of existing to support moneyed interests.

but but but how are the corporations supposed to make money off of our data if they can't harvest it? Think of the poor corporations!!
