iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Character AI was probably one of the more viable profit models for LLM chatbots btw. Accuracy and hallucinations don't matter, all it has to do is sound kinda like the character, and there's a high propensity for users developing addictive behavior. This is the canary, and it's dead.

You're correct but Playboy is a really outdated analogy. The magazine still exists but it's basically vanished from the zeitgeist. For better and for worse, influencers like Andrew Tate or Jack Dorhety. Worst because they're horrible, better cause they're not as good at hiding it.

They don't have a problem with self control. These acts are pre-meditated. These men are predators who purposefully ignore the humanity of their victims in a bid for a sort of juvenile petty power that they can show off to their peers.

Literally the only reason why the contributions of men matter to society is because we're 50% of the population. The capabilities of a given human being are extremely adaptable and capable. If all men disappeared, the issues would come from a loss of numbers, not a loss of capabilities.

...it's also worth stating that most people go their whole lives without revealing details of their *consensual* sex lives. And they can face repercussions for doing so. Adding rape into the mix, one of the most heinous but misunderstood crimes out there, it's no wonder a lot of people keep quiet.

We can agree but the cops are another story. Although the victims are also another story, a lot of victims are too afraid of the social repercussions to even report the incident. It can take decades for them to tell anyone, let alone the law.

"Cyberbullying isn't real" is a wrong take that was reasonable to have like, 20 years ago, but these days everyone is so online that it really, really isn't. This is especially true since these days cyberbullying could encompass everything from AI revenge porn to swatting.

Even in the current epoch of generative AI, a human artist can still make a much more unique image for a client at a relatively affordable price. The only thing someone really needs to go to a chatbot for is art that a human would refuse to make for legal or moral reasons.

I met her once at a Juneteenth event in 2016, ironically I was canvassing for Clinton. Nevertheless I shook her hand and asked what her goals were if she's obviously not gonna win the general And she was like "to promote the green down ballot" And my immediate thought was "what down ballot?"

Theres talk about students using it to cheat on schoolwork, but the thing about that is that they don't exactly do it enthusiastically. In the same way where just because they used SparkNotes didn't mean they enjoyed or cared about SparkNotes.

People (me included) really need to internalize that photographs aren't real. They never were. They carry such a tiny snapshot of time that your understanding of what's going on is going to be colored entirely by your own biases, the context of the photo will be lost unless it is actively conveyed.

Also the same is true for videos. And it's not an AI thing, this has always been true.

A photograph has all the reality of a cartoon. If you intentionally compose a cartoon to be accurate, it will be accurate, but you can compose it any way you like. The only difference with a photograph is that your composition is about finding the right moment instead of drawing it.

Drones have limited range and battery life, especially if they're the kind that are on a fiber line. You take what you can get a lot of the time. Especially since whatever troops and gear these guys would have led the drone back towards probably have anti-drone measures in place.

Seen other people mention this and I've thought about this myself. People act like AI is the future because of the massive spend on it, but the simple fact is there are many examples of massive investments amounting to jack squat, outside of a few exceptions. www.u-s-history.com/pages/h66.html

Distributed cognition seems like a no brainer when you consider how the physical state of your body plays in cognition. Like gut feelings would sure be a weird way for certain feelings to be communicated if the brain was the only thinky bit. Cool to see that the hypothesis is gaining ground.
