  • I WANT to believe:

    People are threatening lawsuits for every little thing that AI does, whittling it down to uselessness, until it dies and goes away along with all of its energy consumption.

    REALITY:

    Everyone is suing everything possible because $$$, whittling AI down to uselessness, until it sits in the corner providing nothing at all, while stealing and selling all the data it can, and consuming ever more power.








  • As of now they’re still considering this a test, so people have to still carry and have available their physical ID in any situation.

    But, off the top of my head, say you’re going through security and already have your plane ticket on your phone, that is all you will need to have out.

    If you’re buying some booze at the circle K and already planning to pay with your phone, again no need to get out your wallet.

    I dunno if the ends justify the means, but use-case is kinda fun I guess

    Suddenly all the clues rush to the front of your brain. That chef’s hat your mom always wears. Always calling you sweetie and sugar. Your dad’s mysterious disappearance during the unforcasted rainy day. Your therapist always talking about layers. The birthmark on your back that seems to read “happy birthday”. It’s not that you didn’t know. It’s that you didn’t want to know.



  • How about deep diving? It’s not easy and consistent with one app, but it’s pretty satisfying to be the one figuring stuff out.

    Or local city planning. Future plans on what to build and where. Doesn’t update as frequently, but it’s something to circle back to on occasion, or you might want to get involved and go to a meeting.

    Some people like to listen to police scanners, or alternatively there is usually someone with a social media account who posts just the most important or funniest transmissions from the city/county/whatever

    Or you could get an idle game app that you occasionally need to pop into to collect money and upgrade.

    Start day trading?



  • You really need to check your ego. You keep thinking that I’m avoiding some discussion or debate with you or something. But you’re not even reading what I’m saying. I don’t care about your disingenuous question.

    THE SECOND you put “so do nothing?” you weren’t interested in my thought. You just want to judge. That’s it. You want to be right and argue why you’re right. So I didn’t respond to your “so do nothing?” Because it isn’t genuine. I tried to explain that to you, but you still think I’m just avoiding “the question”.

    What I mean is if you want to discuss with someone, don’t take a cynical comment and immediately apply nihilism if your intent is to learn and discuss. My intent wasn’t to learn and discuss. Neither was yours. Because you demand a response doesn’t mean you are entitled to anything. And if someone doesn’t want to stumble along your thinking path doesn’t mean they’re avoiding your judgemental question. It may, however, mean they’ve dismissed your question
