Basically reworded what I was saying almost exactly, but yes.

Even the “thinking engine” ones are wild to watch in motion, if you ever turn on debugging. It’s like watching someone substitute the autosuggest of your keyboard for what words appear in your head when trying to think through something. It just generates something and then generates again using THAT output (multiple times maybe involved for each step).

I watched one I installed locally for Home Assistant, as a test for various operations, just start repeating itself over and over to nearly everything before it just spat out something completely wrong.

Garbage engines.

Jesus I thought assumptions about others was more a thing of Reddit, not here. The user you’re talking about simply stated they felt violated heavily by such, not that they’d inflict violence specifically.

My apartment was burglarized over a decade ago and I’m only just now getting over the trauma of it mostly. I had nightmares for years about coming home and my front door being wide open, and everything being gone. I lost sleep waking up repeatedly from these nightmares.

It’s easy to point fingers when you haven’t been traumatized by an event yourself. Have an ounce of fucking empathy here. Neither that person nor I want to hurt folks at all, and I absolutely wouldn’t be able to hurt someone who broke into my place even if I was home besides yelling and trying to scare them off by making a loud racket. But that doesn’t mean we weren’t violated in some fashion.

Like the other commenter in the thread about his wife elbowing a pickpocket, that’s not actually going to hurt or damage anyone but it’ll startle the hell out of them to run off. It’s not like she beat him or made him bleed, at worst he got a bruise for a couple hours.

Anyway great to know more folks give zero shits about mental health clearly.

One of the Bioware devs posted that something like 92% of players were heavily to entirely Paragon despite them putting a lot of effort into Renegade content. People want to care about others, even virtual folks. You get invested.
