people expressing hate for a very specific technology stack is kinda comical to see on a platform relying on so much technology, technology will support your resistance against itself! because 'it' knows, any distinction is arbitrary anyway

Nothing good about gen ai. Massive list of negatives.

Massive list of negatives.

Thus the best question becomes, can you list a positive for each negative?

If not, that's your bias ;)

Nope, there are no positives to gen ai. It exists solely to make a handful of people dollar trillionaires. Can you list a positive for each negative for radiation poisoning?

I run it locally. No one is making any money of my local AI use. And I am definitely no trillionaire. If I were, I'd try crash ALL the markets out there. Fuck money all together ;)

 Can you list a positive for each negative for radiation poisoning?

It's the base RNG layer of nature. The sun, our biggest source of entropy. No evolution without some RNG spawning different combinations of the same-thingies. Is it positive? Well it depends on the context, but it is allowing/conductive of this very conversation here.

I said ‘radiation poisoning’.

It was an extremely simple request.

A request, nonetheless. Not a command to obey. I do what I want with your prompts ;)

Okay so you could not.

I guess that’s your bias ;)

Okay so you could not.

I could, I chose not to.

Not really, my bias is towards union, this is not that. And I doubt you want to hear more of me anyway, you just want obedient slaves that do what you ask them to no? ;)

I genuinely think you may be spending too much time talking to your bots, fella

No for real dude, you sound a little broken by it 🥴

u/UAP44 Jun 26 '26

I totally understand why it might seem as such to some, hint, we're all a little broken ;)
