  • Photoshop is a general purpose image editting tool that is mostly harmless. That’s not the same for AI. The people who created them and allow other people to use them do so anyway without enough consideration to the risks they know is much much higher than something like Photoshop.

    What you say applies to photoshop because the devs know what it can do and the possible damage it can cause from misuse is within reasons. The AI you are talking about are controlled by the companies that create them and use them to provide services. It follows it is their responsibility to make sure their products are not harmful to the extend they are, especially when the consequences are not fully known.

    Your reasoning is the equivalent of saying it’s the kids fault for getting addicted to predatory mobile games and wasting excessive money on them. Except that it’s not entirely their fault and programs aren’t just a neutral tool but a tool that is customised to the wills of the owners (the companies that own them). So there is such a thing as an evil tool.

    It’s all those companies, and the people involved, as well as law makers responsiblity to make the new technology safe with minimal negative impacts to society rather than chase after their own profits while ignoring the moral choices.











  • I don’t think this question is that different from asking whether a cat ever wonder why a dog might want to play with it. A cat probably assume something, which might not even be the same as another cat. It probably also depends on their personality and experience. Kind of like how humans often assume certain things without thinking about it too deeply, like the motivation of another person, even if that assumption is wrong.






  • I think you are missing the point. The point isn’t where the money is spent the most. The point is money has to come from somewhere. And yes, ideally it would be redirected from billionaires, mega-corps and military budget, but that’s currently not happening. The money spent on space exploration is at least somewhere in the same vein as the ones spent on the environment, other researches etc. They are for the sake of making progress. Let’s look at a hypothetical situation where space exploration is getting more traction again (more than now).

    1. Attention will be diverted from environmental impact on earth.
    2. Budget redirected to space exploration also has to come from somewhere, and it’s also unlikely to be from military budget.

    And that’s the problem.


  • Another incorrect assumption.

    And yet no reasoning given. A rather pointless response. It suggests you don’t have reasons to support your hate.

    So to make a summary, for you people I am insecure, pro slavery, against women be able to vote, anti civil rights and pro totalitarianism. Anything else?

    How about you stop victimising yourself and reason something meaningful for a chance? Apparently, it’s okay for you to say the side you disagree with is getting brainwashed (remember, you used the word first), and mutilating themselves (also, your word, which is wrong btw), but it’s not okay for other sides to say the same to you? Quite a hypocrite we have here.

    When did i express hate?

    Literally the points you are expressing. You are supporting making choices illegal to people. Choices that are extremely meaningful to some. You are encouraging their persecution.

    The only one here receiving hate It’s me and i am being hated by the people who profess to spread love.

    Again, stop victimising yourself LMAO.
