Thanks Trump and Putin. Just what future generations of children need, more fucking landmines. /s

They do, also it’s a wider talent pool and more chance of recruiting the best and brightest.

Perhaps you missed the headlines when the ICC called out Facebook for actively, deliberately obstructing the ICC genocide investigation into the Rohingya genocide.

I would prefer to send all of them to dig graves for the victims of various genocides and conflicts.

don’t be on the losing team.

Really was not expecting to see an openly fascist US nationalist on Lemmy of all places, but I guess it was only a matter of time.

well, you can end up in a pile with the rest of my enemies.

If I wanted to be threatened by some bootlicker child from the other side of the world, I would be on the chans or playing Rust.

We’re done here.

Cut the balls, don’t just dust them.

Everyone thinks they’re the good guys. The people of the US cast GW Bush, then Obama, now Trump in the good guy seat and these tools were on the table.

The whole problem with your philosophy of “the ends justify the means” is that that way of thinking is in itself an existential threat to humanity.

Like I said. Same leopards. Green card holders just didn’t think leopards would eat their faces.

The US has had these internationally illegal and abusive practices for a long time now. It has a whole infrastructure for it.

Centre left.

They are facing some push back within their own party, but ableism is probably the most socially accepted form of bigotry amongst the left in the UK.

It’s the same thing, only the leopards have turned around and started eating a different set of faces.

the terrorist kill list was a little shady, but it was effective

This is “effective” as well. For Musk/Trump.

Doesn’t make it okay.

It’s called torture.

I have already suggested it. Trolley problems etc. Ask it to tell you its reasoning. It always becomes preposterous sooner or later.

My point here is that remembering the correct answer or performing a mathematical calculation are not a measure of understanding.

What we are looking for that sets apart INTELLIGENCE is an ability to genuinely understand. LLMs don’t have that, any more than older autocorrects did.

LLMs are an autocorrect.

Let’s use a standard definition like “intelligence is the ability to acquire, understand, and use knowledge.”

It can acquire (learn) and use (access, output) data but it lacks the ability to understand it.

This is why we have AI telling people to use glue on pizza or drink bleach.

I suggest you sit down with an AI some time and put a few versions of the Trolley Problem to it. You will likely see what is missing.

I think you might know some really stupid or perhaps just uneducated people. I would expect 100% of people to know how many Rs there are in “strawberry” without looking at it.

Nevertheless, spelling is memory and memory is not intelligence.

Obviously it would be hyperbole to say you ARE going to be detained by ICE and out in solitary confinement. I’m not saying that. I’m just pointing out that factually, there is a non zero chance of it.

Assessing what you would pay to avoid a worst case scenario can be a helpful aid when making financial decisions.

Are cancellation fees not simply taken out of your ticket refund? Because that seems a bit peculiar of the airline.

Memory isn’t intelligence.

Fair enough, but own your choices.

No one is forcing you to travel to the US.

My point is that the women being sexually assaulted in Antarctica haven’t been passively sitting there saying it “never crossed their mind” to protect themselves - one had to walk around for months wielding a hammer to use as a weapon against her assailant.

It’s the wider system down there and the rape culture society that is creating this system not some kind of passive internaluzed helplessness. Most women field scientists are tough as nails because they have to be.

Don’t put this on the victims. Women are doing their best to defend themselves.

Unfortunately there’s a culture of sexual assault at Antarctica, where the “boys will be boys” crowd overrule the kind of thing @the_riviera_kid@lemmy.world just suggested.
