Banning kids from online games?? Kids, pack your Fortnite bags, vacation is over, we gotta go home to the land of the free. (They can't be serious, surely? SURELY?) Quoting @Dexerto The EU is reportedly preparing to ban kids under 15 from social media, AI chatbots and online games Related

lot of the responses to me the last few days (as usual when i get surfaced in some parts of X) is that i'm anti-white. i'm really not, but if you think i am, you are either retarded or nazi-grade racist. which is fine. but then we know it's beyond discussion what needs to happen Quoting @SarahTheHaider I spent the better part of a decade pushing back against anti-white racism, and suffered immensely for it, both professionally and personally.

A pump-and-dump dressed up as a fake cabinet post?: Elon Musk’s DOGE took money Congress had lawfully appropriated to fight disease and grow the world economy, and simply nixed it. The crypto coin that Musk was then not so quietly promoting made a round-trip: the DogeCoin chart runs $0.09 to $0.40 and back to $0.09. But the 800,000 or so who would be alive today without DOGE’s illegal and unconstitutional chaos-monkey wrecking ball did not come back: **Elon Musk & His DOGE & DogeCoin... 1/ crypto Related

Whenever you are told “Trust the experts” you are better off doing the opposite. Remember when Covid “Trust the experts” led to a civilizational hoax that broke our economy and retarded our children? The AI “Trust the experts” version will make that pale in comparison. I’d encourage all of you to approach this with wonder but also a healthy dose of skepticism. Related

I think "being real with yourself" is the most underrated cognitive skill for the AI age — AI makes it too easy to lie to yourself: to self-congratulate for the illusion of thinking, productivity, etc. But you gotta actually know: Am I being more productive, or just tokenmaxxing? Am I upskilling myself with AI, or letting it do the hard part for me? Does my essay/business/product idea make sense, or did I let an LLM convince me it does? Then you won't need hard rules like “always/never use AI for X.” If you pay attention and avoid self-deception, you'll be able to *feel* when you are doing re… LLMs Related

The joy of a programmer, of me as a programmer, is to type the code myself. If I elevate myself, if I promote myself out of programming, I turn myself into a project manager. A project manager of a murder of AI crows as I wrote the other day.

I think the lesson from all of that is that humans talking to humans and being together in the real world or a virtual world, is a naturally empathetic medium, which naturally leads to bonding, and though conflict sometimes occurs, it's just generally so much more promoting of our social norms and good interactions between people and positivity promoting.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
