So you say it’s irrelevant who saved who, in a conversation directly related to somebody stopping a shooter, then sarcastically call Islam a religion of peace when saying the shooters were Muslim “yet again”, then accuse me of banning people which I don’t do? What are you on about? You need to get your head checked mate.

Too cowardly to just openly say what you’re trying to imply? You’re already very openly bigoted, just explain the contradiction you’re trying to point to.

Explain the contradiction.

I was just making a joke about how common school shootings tragically are ✌️

Congratulations and well done dude!!! I’ve found Hybrid Calisthenics (the app and the YouTube channel) to be a friendly, easy way to build routine and understand what you’re doing and why you’re doing it when you’re exercising. The app can be a little glitchy on my phone but it’s just visual glitches.

Isn’t that just graduating?

Can I get the award first and then the block pls? Seems funny to call me weak when you’ve thrown a little tantrum like this

If somebody said “laughs are on them”, you’re telling me you simply can’t understand what the sentiment that person is trying to get across is?

Of course not; you clearly know what the phrase would be for native English speakers - well done - but I just don’t find much value in nitpicking easily ignored syntax or grammar issues honestly.

Do you reckon they might have been trying to spell another word? Gosh, but what word could it possibly be?? If only we could have ANY clues at all!!!

Ahhh I assumed it was that one, lol

Making art can be lonely when you come up for air and feel like nobody cares or would enjoy what you’re creating, but I’m sure plenty of people would love to read what you’re writing! It’s impressive that you’re even attempting to write a book!

What film are you referencing?

Nice, thank you! 👍

The head of my agency is a gullible rube who is terrified of being “left behind”, and the head of my department is a grown-up with a family and a career who spends his days off sending AI videos and memes into the work chat.

I’ve been called into meetings and told I have to be positive about AI. I’ve been told to stop coding and generate (very important) things with AI.

It’s disheartening. My career is over, because I have no interest in generating mountains of no-intention code rather than putting in the effort to build reliable, good, useful things for our clients. AI dorks can’t fathom human effort and hard work being important.

I’m working to pay off my debts, and then I’m done. I strongly want to get a job that allows me to be offline.

Asking you as it seems like you’re somebody working in the AI field: how can I avoid whatever you and others in your field are doing? Do I just have to go offline?

I’m not against that idea, but unfortunately I do have debts to pay off at least for the next 45 months or so and my career requires me to use the internet (I’m a web developer). Once the debt is paid, I’m free.

Oh! If it’s translated that might explain it, totally. Jokes are strange like that, lol

What’s mald?

Re your last point, I’m a full time web developer and while I’m not building entire games or whatever, I am currently working on a fairly complex and involved data migration project. My boss has demanded I do the whole thing with AI and don’t write code.

Thus far, it’s been incredibly frustrating to get it to do what I need it to do without having the chatbot change tonnes of tiny things or assume and hallucinate stuff that simply shouldn’t be there. Beyond those time-wasting frustrations, the fact that I’m not getting hands-on means my mental model of how the data is translating from one system to another is muddy. It’s not as clear as it would be were I building this thing myself. Specifically, because I’m not building it myself, I’m not running into edge cases personally and unpicking the knots of the current system.

There’s no intentionality in what chatbots generate, by definition. They have no intention, they’re not alive, they can’t think. They don’t understand things.

I’m sorry but I’m sort of done with this topic. I don’t like Generative AI, I think it’s disingenuous, lazy, furthering the commodification of art and creativity, and damaging our abilities to think critically. However, I do understand that some people have found it helpful in some contexts, and other people like to play with it. Thanks for the chat. 👍

I’m failing to connect the punchline here really. Charlie Kirk was shot, so I get that. He was white, so I guess I get that bit. But… mulled wine? A white mulled wine? Is there a pun I’m not getting? And with a shot? I must be missing something really obvious but at the moment I feel as though this joke has two almost-punchlines but just sort of doesn’t quite get there.

Please go and hang out with your little chatbot friends, and leave us humans alone. Thanks 👍
