Additionally, AI will only be getting better,
It might get cheaper, but that doesn’t mean it’s doing a better job.
if the alternative is telling people that are struggling and have no other options that they have to tough it out
That’s just it, if you’re talking to someone who’s is struggling with this there is already a better option: showing empathy. I suspect our perceived lack of empathy is a reflection of how society treats people in general, we are just more honest about it and recognize it’s mostly platitudes.
I’ll be honest, I find the framing of the study offensive and I’m not sure if I have the words but I’ll try.
It’s less about this study comparing itself to no intervention instead, but the social & political context of AI being pushed as a way to make care giving more efficient while sacrificing quality.
half were assigned to use Noora for four weeks and half received no intervention.
If only they gave a control group an off-the-shelf social game like LA Noire or a D&D play group

There’s a difference between seeing and perceiving. If you see AI slop and don’t see how it is different than something crafted by a human expert, that is a problem of one’s perception.
- How Generative AI is framed by the industry is an affront to humanistic values.
- It’s not even close to consciousness. For those of us who understand how these things work it’s almost an insult to make the comparison.

- All the other unethical considerations mentioned elsewhere by others (stealing art, water usage, politics).
52·4 months agoThere are about ~3000 billionaires. Or a billionaire every minute.
I mean churches should be anticapitalist and before the turn of the last century they often were. But then property got expensive and churches would need loans… Now we have prosperity gospel and mega churches. The internet ran the same course but in just a couple decades.
Aside from the systemic reasons why the internet leans heavily right: when you deport people’s neighbors then politics is no longer a sports game and even the nonvoters understand this.
Being a billionaire is like staying alive long enough to be a villain. They were great at something but nothing justifies holding that much power for so long.
Also introduced voucher schools because he didn’t want teachers telling him laptops won’t solve education
IDK about “white knight”; I first heard the phrase “dangerous by default” from a black man recounting how he got nervous being on an elevator with a white woman.
“Dangerous by default” is one hell of a thing to internalize 😞
6·6 months agoWho needs IP laws when you have EULAs that bar competition? Certainly not corporations with their armies of lawyers.
That is the definition of liberalism but that is not the loved experience of unhoused people in the USA. If you are unhoused there are a lot of moral judgements that come along with that.
Harder? Being queer and unhoused can be pretty damn bad in the states. In China your boss might say something bad but you don’t have to worry about being homeless.
Yeah, I got questions about Tienanmen, but not the same ones. Like was the CIA involved in the counter protest outside the school campus?
Also, there is searchable queer content on RedNote, the app own by the CCP
My TikTok feed is rather radical, which is a non+option on all the other corporate platforms.
Not $200 but ended up buying a xerox phaser. When looking at cost per page it is one of the cheapest though.
Maybe I’m weird but I don’t like getting a scanner combo. Scanners break more easily than printers and after my Brother all-in-one had a busted scanner I’ve been going for portable scanners that run off USB power from the laptop. Canon lide has been a solid scanner for me.
