iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I also find it fucking hilarious that the AI stans are like "your kids will be left behind if they don't use it" as if it's harder to type a prompt into a text box to ask someone else to do your work than it is to read and understand a book or learn mathematics on your own. Foh.

It is an affirmative, positive choice by those in charge to use this method. To have it behave this way. They have seen the results and they accept them. It is THEIR CHOICE.

The truth was that if United Health had an AI that was accepting a shitload of claims with a 90% error rate, United Health would stop using the AI in about 0.2 seconds.

The AI industry wants you to say "the AI just did that thing on its own!" Like, United Health's AI that's denying a shitload of claims with a 90% error rate? They wanted you to think it's just the AI.

I wrote this quickly at a bus stop and didn't realize it would go viral, or else I would have worded it better. But the point is that the media is too credulous about AI killing everyone in 10 years (how?) when climate change is killing people now and will only get worse (we know exactly how).

I agree about guess and check vs solving the quadratic, but finding sqrt(1260) definitely narrowed the guessing!

Except that with certain vaccines, a lot of parents start from the accurate assessment that the disease in question is not one their kids are likely to catch... because others are vaccinating! So you sometimes have to go beyond facts and into collective responsibility, which is more of a moral issue

Okay, I agree cis people learn problematic thought patterns in our society that it's our duty to move past. The original poster used words like "never" that didn't seem to hold out hope or expectation that that is possible. Also, I think a lot of us were raised to be more oblivious than hateful.

Whoa - I thought he really thought she was dead & didn't know about her (bad enough). If it was a "joke" then yes, it's an awful one. It's not on trans people to educate or befriend such people... but I live in a social milieu where cis people do better, & it IS possible & what trans people deserve.

Certainly. I don't post anything all that often, but even in the last few weeks I have. Anyway, think what you want of me; it's not about me. I'm genuinely sorry if Peter Sagal let you down, and fully agree that trans people face horrific discrimination and misunderstanding.

Ok, then broadly and structurally, I suggest you don't throw out cis allies completely, even if we're inconsistent and oblivious at times. (Also acknowledge many/most? cis people have bigger issues than that, but not counting them as allies)
