Sounds like you went to one of the schools in the article. If they treat their degrees as measly job door stops, then of course they aren’t gonna give a shit if the students actually learn anything. With an actual education, it won’t matter if “ai” destroys the applicable career because the student actually learned what they paid to learn.

And, if all the doomsaying about chatbots were actually true, no job is safe anyhow and going to a school like this is just fucking yourself twice over. Study for yourself, not for the piece of paper you get at the end.

Good thing students don’t go to school to learn things. They might be missing out on something of they were. (/s)

Same for all Indies bought up by larger companies. At best they seem to get broken up and dispersed in the company. Most just seem to be ballast used to pad stock value, then tossed when it’s the least bit beneficial to their owners.

Stop using algorithm feeds, and obfuscate your online presence. Most people don’t care enough to bother, though. The convenience makes it worth the loss of privacy.

Botbrains.

It doesn’t take much intelligence to act on. It’s literally just “Nuh uh, you are” - the default retort of children everywhere.

He played that role so perfectly. Vile and cruel, but still charming enough to be believable when he won people over.

I usually like these comics, but this is some xenophobic bs. Put the British flag (or any flag) in the first panel and it’s just nationalistic propaganda. Not cool.

Don’t worry, they’re plastering the same shit in your news as “prediction markets”.

Same thought. Imagining crawling a boat through miles of that maze to spend an hour in open water before having to turn around to crawl back. Smh.

The rare happy ending PBF comic.

I know it’s mainly religious connotations, but all I think of with that title is the Josh Hartnett movie about NNN before NNN was a thing.

Look at the bit behind the top of his ear. In the og, it’s trimmed short. In the new meme, it’s untrimmed and curly.

And in the parts you circled, it’s clearly more styled and “neater”. The original is messier, with bits sticking out.

Compression doesn’t add/change hair.

Definitely was. Changed has lips, nose, even his hair.

Why do people constantly fall into “suffering one-upmanship” when discussing making things better? Who does that benefit? Why not simply agree that it’s wrong and work together to solve both problems?

Funny how that never happens.

in a time where we should be looking to reduce our energy spending

Data centers are definitely a problem, but all progress in curbing carbon emissions points toward increasing energy use. The problem (that has been put off for too long) is that power generation itself relies too much on carbon heavy products. We should have carbon neutral, or even negative, power generation by now, but it’s been fought and put off for decades now, so this is what we get to deal with.

That screenshot is such pyscho behavior. “Our algorithm will access any and all data it can on you to answer your question, whether you ask it to or not! Isn’t that great??”
